McCann voted chair of Council,
beating Russo after three votes
By Donna MacKenzie
STAPE WRITER
After three rounds of v Bill. McCann
defeated Steve Russo Wednesday night to be elected
Central Council Chair for the 1985-86 academic
year,
Liz Chestnut was elected Vice-chair by acclam
tion. Steve Landis, Rich Wilson, and Irwin Weins-
tein. were all nominated for the position but
‘withdrew before a vote was taken.
McCann cited his experience
Central Council this semester, his personality, and
enthusiasm for getting students involved in Student
Association (SA) as his best qualities for the job. I
have attended at least one meeting of every commit-
tee so I feel I have a good grasp of what they do,”
McCann told Council,
‘Committee members will be encouraged to work
together next year, McCann said after the meeting,
adding, ‘just because you're on one committee
doesn’t mean you can’t another."
McCann said he had many ideas for next yea
cluding a pamphlet to distribute at summer
tion to let new students know what Council com-
mittees offer students.
“+L sat down and compiled a list of well over a
dozen of solid, concrete ideas for next semester,"
plained McCann, saying, “the Central Council
air hasn't been, for years, a visible member of
Student Association,
The Central Council chair receives a $1,500 sti-
pend for the summer and $250 per academic
semester.
According to Council member Lynn Livanos,
McCann's enthusiasm qualifies him for the job.
The final vote for the Chair position was 16 to 8.
In the first round of voting McCann received 14
votes while Russo received 8 with 2 abstentions.
The second vote was 14 to 10 in favor of McCann,
‘A: 44 majority or 16 votes are needed to win.
According to Russo, his knowledge of SA,
organizational capabilities, innovativeness and ex-
perience are his best qualities for the job. Russo has
served on Council for 3 years and last year served as
Chair of the Internal Affairs Committee.
Russo was endorsed by former SA President Rich
Schaffer and former Vice President Suzy Auletta.
“I see the relationship between Council and the
Executive Branch as one of cooperation, but Coun-
cil should also retain its autonomy and integrity,”
said Russo.
SA_ President-elect Steve Gawley and Vice
President-elect Ross Abelow were sworn in during
Wednesday night's meeting.
Chief Justice of Supreme Court Steve Sinatra ad-
ministered the oath of office to both Gawley and
Abelow, and to the new Central Council members
for next year.
Preceding the swearing in, Schaffer’s last official
act was to sign the 1985-86 SA budget. a

Wasby complaint leads to 2-year hiatus
By Michelle Busher
and Bette Dzamba
Professor Steven Wasby of the Political
Science department will not be teaching at
SUNYA for the next two years due to a
punitive action by the University resulting
from a discrimination complaint filed
against him in late December.
The action was a result of a “grievance
for allegations of illegal discrimination”
which according to an Albany Times-
Union article was filed with the Affir-
mative Action Office on campus in late
December.
Several political science students, who
asked not to be identified, said the women
who filed the complaint was a graduate
student and the complaint involved a
grievance for sexual harrassment.
Although the Director of Affirmative
Action, Gloria DeSole refused to comment
on the specific case, she did say that her of-
fice handles complaints of discrimination
for race and ethnic origin, gender, disabili-
ty and age.” She added that, ‘sexual har-
rassment is one of the allegations” that
would be handled through the department.
University officials, however, refused to
comment on the nature of the grievance
claiming only that it was “illegal
discrimination.”
“Professor Wasby will not be on the
payroll next year,” said Chair of the
Political Science Department Martin
Edelman. He explained that Wasby would
receive half of his pay the following year,
which he will be taking as a sabbatical
“That is university policy," sai
Edelman. ‘He is entitled to apply for a
year's sabbatical like any other
professor.”*
When Wasby was asked if the leave of
absence was due to any pressure from
students or the administration, he replied,
“The leave was approved by the
University."*
Wasby also said’ that if any grievance
had ‘been made against him it “never
reached the formal stage.”
When asked if Wasby's year away from
teaching without pay was a suspension,
Edelman said that was ‘not exactly a
curate.’” He did not however, explain why
the year was not a suspension and said
merely that ‘‘the conditions don't
technically fit President O’Leary’s descrip-
tion of suspensio:
Edelman emphasized that “this is not a
light result," adding that ‘the man is out
$50,000.""
‘Wasby’s annual salary, as quoted in the
Times-Union, is $50,392."
Gloria DeSole
‘AMY COHEN UPS
University officials refused to comment on the nature of the greivance against Wasby.
Although Edelman said there are no for-
mal conditions to Wasby's return in two
years, he did add that ‘tas a consequence,
there’s no longer a clean slate. If anything
else happened the roof could cave in."
‘One student claimed that one of the con-
ditions of Wasby’s leave was that he seck
psychiatric help. Edelman hesitantly
declined comment and suggested that
“you had better speak to Wasby about
that."
Wasby could not be reached to comment
on this statement.
‘An agrecment was made that, according
to Edelman, was satisfactory to the
‘woman who filed the complaint, as well as
Wasby and the University.
Edelman stressed that the woman who
filed the complaint agreed to the subse-
quent conditions, saying, ‘no one forced
her to settle with this.’
President Vincent O'Leary approved the
conditions of the agreement,
Edelman explained that since the
grievance could be settled satisfactorily
through discussions between these people,
the process never reached more formal
stages of review.
DeSole said that there are plenty of good
reasons why someone would not take a
complaint all of the way through the for-
mal procedures, ‘It is ime consuming and
dangerous,"" she said, adding that most
people would ask me to work on it “infor-
mally and much more subtly.
Edelman said he was very proud that the
University ‘took the allegations serious-
ly," adding, “it happened and wasn’t
pushed under the rug, the University dealt
with it.”
A student who filed a complaint against
Wasby last year said, “When I approached
Edelman about the problem last year, he
told me not to back out of it.”
In regard to Wasby's leave without pay,
she said, “I don’t think that one year Is
long enough. Obviously something is very
wrong if so many people are filing
complaints.”*
Wasby said that he plans to do research
during the time that he is away. “I have a
lot of writing to do,’” he explained.
He added he will be working on a book
about civil rights litigation. involving
schools, jo!
According to informat
the University, Wasby previously taught at
Southern Illinois University from 1966 to
1978. He received his bachelor's degree
from Antioch College and a master’s and
doctorate degree from the University of
Oregon. o

According to Friess, about $0 percent of
the senior class were contacted during the
pledge drive.
SUNYA’s Class of 1985 Pledge Drive
reached its $20,000 goal Thursday, accor-
ding to Donna Friess, Assistant Director
for Resource Development at SUNYA.
‘The drive, which began 2 months ago,
ran “really well for a first time effort,"
said Friess, who congratulated the par-
ticipating seniors for “a great effort in
such a short time."
The pledge money will be used to build
an electronic message board which will be
located in either the Campus Center or the
Lecture Centers,
$20,000.""was an ambitions goal," said
Freiss, adding that ‘it normally takes a lot
longer’ to raise that much money.
“Twas u little skeptical at first" about
reaching the goal, said Rich Schaffer
outgoing Student Association President.
Some people-were not happy with the
choice of the message board, said Schaf-
fer, ‘but that's going to happen with any
program." A_ very visible project’ was
needed, he added,
“What we were hoping to do is try and
“establish a tradition,"” said Schaffer, Next

It was difficult to get local addresses and
iclephone numbers of many seniors, said
Freiss, but, she added, around 1,000
students were reached by telephone.
Brochures and pledge cards were also
mailed to seniors said Friess, and there are
many seniors who still haven't returned the
cards, she added.

announces
search fund
has doubled
By Bill Jacob
STA WHITER
Jenny Wilson, whose daughter,
Karen, has been missing for over one
month, announced Wednesday that the
reward being offered for her daughter's
return has been increased from the
original $5,000 to $10,000 the Albany
Times-Union reported Thursday.
During the press conference, Mrs.
Wilson once again appealed to the
public for any information which may
help police determine her daughter's
location and asked for ‘anyone out
there who can help us to please come
forward.”
Attempts by police in locating
Wilson, 22, have not produced any clues
&S to her whereabouts. Wilson was last
seen at the Tanning Hut Salon on Cen-
tral Avenue, March 27,
Police said three witnesses reported
having seen a young woman fitting
Wilson's desription walking along
Fuller Road, but no clues have been
found in the area after police conducted
on extensive search.
Mark Foti, Wilson's boyfriend, join-
ed Mrs. Wilson at the press conference,
along with Assemblymember Samuel
Coleman (D-Spring Valley), who
employed Wilson as an intern, and
Henry Kirchner, Assistant Vice Presi-
dent for Student Affairs at SUNYA.
Of the $5,000 added to the original
reward, $1,000 is being pledged’ by
University Auxiliary Services (UAS).
The rest of the reward comes from $50
donations by members of the state
assembly and senate and donations
given by friends of the Wilson family,
stationed at Plattsburgh Air Force Base,
where Wilson's father works, the Times-
Union reported.
Additional donations raised through
student fund-raising efforts, door-to-
door campaigns, and mail-in contribu-
tions will be used to nationally publicize
Wilson's disappearance through the
media and posters to be displayed
throughout the country, Foti said.
Mrs, Wilson said that an effort will be
made to attract national coverage
“We're trying (o reach programs like 60
Minutes and 20/20 to see if they will
help us," she said
The reward is being offered for ‘i
formation leading to the arrest and co
viction of the person or persons

leads to the finding of Kare Mrs.
Wilson said,
Wilson is about 53" tall. She weighs

4 ALBANY STUDENT PRESS () FRIDAY, MAY 3, 1985
By Matthew Gaven
STAFE WRITER
Four University Police Department
(UPD) officers. were seen taking an
unusually long coffee break at a local off-
‘campus restuarant open all night, although
UPD logs have no records of the break
Suzy Auletta, former Student Associa
tion (SA) Vice President, and two SUNYA
students spotted four UPD police cars in
the parking lot of Denny's Restaurant, on
Western Avenue, at 2:45 a.m, Monday,
April 22.
‘Auletta and her two friends had gone to
Dennys* for a late night stack when they
noticed the four campus police cars parked
in the lot dircetly adjacent to the
restaurant, whieh is open 24 hours a day.
“+L was really surprised to see four eam=
pus cars there at the same time at that late
hour," said Auletta. "When we walked in
we saw four officiers sitting around having
a good time, laughing and drinking voffee.
They stayed for a little more than a half
hour and all left together at about 3:15
a.m."
According to Licutenant Marvin Miller
of UPD, the supervising officer that morn-
ing, the radio log showed not record of any
officers calling in for a break at tht time.
The cars in question are units 722, 723,
724, 728. All were on patrol that evening,
according to radio log.

remained inside. “We wanted to make
sure that we copied down the numbers in
vase there was any question as to which
cars were actually involved,"* she
explained,
Miller said “units 722 and 724 had
reyponded (0 a call about a suspicious per-
son on State Quad" at approximately 2:34
asm, “Units 723 and 728 were also called
to State Quad to investigate someone
sleeping on the grass" at the same time.
“Units 722 and 724 radioed clear at
2:36, while units 723 and 728 radioed clear
at 2:37 a.m.,” said Miller, who was
reading from the log of that shift’s radio
transmissions. ‘One officer was assinged
to each vehicle in addition to an officer
working desk"” and an officer patroling in
a fifth car, unit 275, The officer in the fifth
car made a total of six officers on duty that
night shift, including Miller who was driv-
ing unit 723, he said.
After the units left the State Quad area,
according to the radio log, several check-
ins were made. The next log entry took
place at 3:05 a.m. when a unit was assign-
ed to another call.
According to Miller, UPD has no writ-
ten policy regarding the break time of of-
ficers. He added, “the officers at that hour
are on eight hour shifts in which they are
on call constantly, If they do take a coffee
break and receive a call, they must respond
immediately despite how cold their food
gets.”
“Most of our late night shifts take their
breaks at Denny's because it is open all
night. The morning and day shift officers
have a choice of the local Burger King or
MecDonald’s but most choose to eat in the
office,” said Miller. “If they are cati
the office they are still on call and must
respond immediately to a call
Auletta insisted that “I didn't imagine
seeing those cars and officers. It would be
ridiculous to assume that | would run
around campus looking to copy down car
numbers to make up a story about the
campus police."*
Auletta agreed that the officers are en-
titled to their breaks, but emphasized that

Preliminary plans for SUNY A's proposed $12
million athletic fieldhouse were discussed Thurs-
day, May 3 at an open forum held by the Athletic
Policy and Planning Board (APPB).
The fieldhouse, to be built within two years,
will include an aren: a 200 meter track. Also,
a bubble covering 35,000 square feet will be com-
pleted this summer toserve until the present
structure is ready
‘The addition of the Fieldhouse to the Univer-
sity's present athletic facifities will bolster
SUNYA's intercollegiate hletics, physical
id recreational programs, said Vice
versity Affairs Lewis Welch,
who chairs the APPB.
“The purpose of this facility is to serve the
needs of this campus,"* Welch explained,
According to Assistant Vice President for
Facilities, Dennis Stevens, planning for the
fieldhouse should be completed by the spring of
1986 and the actual construction should be com-
pleted by late 1987 or early 1988,
“Nothing in New York State comes quick and
the fieldhouse will be no exception,” said
Stevens,
Stevens said that the facility will feature a large
arena area capable of supporting a variety of
sports including basketball, volleyball and gym-
Campus fieldhouse particulars released
tnasti¢s and a court area which will be surrounded
by a 200-meter track.
Refusing to make a specific commitment about
the exact location of the fieldhouse, Stevens
would only say that it would be “‘near the gym."
Stevens did add, however, that while the new
building will be close to the gym, no existing out-
door athletic fields will be removed to make
room for the fieldhouse.
The arena, which will have eight raquetball
courts and weightlifting facilities as well as
lockerrooms, a training room, various athletic
offices and space for concessions, could also be
utilized for speakers or concerts also, Stevens
said.
“We're not building a civic center to serve the
needs of the Capital District, however," Stevens
cominued,
Chris Budd of University Concert Board and
one of the few students at the forum attended by
less than a dozen people, said ‘it would make it
much easier for students to see a larger concert
with a larger structure on campus,"
“We'd have a better chance of getting more
expensive acts," Budd explained,
SUNYA has uested funding for the
fieldhouse, which will cost $1 million dollars to
plan and $11 million dollars to build, every year

ASUBA, JSC, RZA deny racial tensions exist
By Eric Hindin
EDITONAL ASSISTANT
Though newly elected Student Associa-
tion (SA) President Steve Gawley, and SA
minority affairs coordinator Eric Bowman
say that Louis Farrakhan’s recent speaking
appearance at SUNYA might have caused
some tension between Jewish groups and
Black groups on campvis, such is not the
case, according to leaders of these groups.
“1 know of no tension between ASUBA
(Albany State University Black Alliance)
and any jewish groups,” stated Laurie
Midgeite, president of ASUBA, which was
instrumental in bringing Farrakhan to
ampus. The protests during Farrakhan’s
speech, which were sponsored by the Revi-
sionist Zionist Alliance (RZA) and the
Jewish Students Coalition (JSC) did not
bother members of ASUBA, Midgeite
said,
‘According to Bowman, allegations have
been made that the Jewish Defense
Organization (JDO) threatened ASUBA,
and ASUBA's office was broken into prior
to the Farrakhan appearance,
Midgette, however, denied that anyone
in ASUBA believed these events in
ASUBA had anything 10 do with either
RZA or JSC.
The JDO is not affiliated with either of
these groups, even though they did work
alongside RZA in running the protest.
Who knows what the truth really is,
Erle Bowman
“The tension is not necessarily racist.""
Student activism
Front Page
(NYPIRG) “activism is on the rise again
(because) students are more aware of
world affairs and issues that concern them
as citizens.”
“This movement is definitely increasing
nationwide,” said Eichhorn, adding that
“education, organization, and legwork"
are essential to the activism of the 1980s,
Predicting that Albany will be a ‘*hotb-
ed”” next year, Student Association (SA)
president Steve Gawley stressed that
students must mobilize and stay informed
in order to be effective:
‘The power of numbers is our strongest
force and we have a lot of tactics to use
said. Gawley, adding that he felt. the
relatively strong economy has led to ac-
tivism, since studens have the time to turn
their concerns to other issues.
Gawley said he sees recent activism as a
‘reaction to conservative forces on campus
which don’t appeal to common sense,’ ad-
ding that this‘ liberal reaction’ is based on
‘seeking the truth."
According to Steve Korowitz,
spokesperson for the Albany College
Republicans, activism does not necessarily
entail liberalism. ‘The conservative ac-
tivism is a backlash to the liberal activism,”
he said.
‘Although the general mood of the
country is somewhat conservative, this
campus is by and large'liberal, so here con-
stated Bowman.
Marlene M. Bryan, Presiden of the Pan-
Carriebean Association, which co-
sponsored Farrakhan's speech, agreed
with Midgette, “There is no tension," said
Bryan, As for the protest sponsored by the
jewish groups, “they can protest all they
want,” she said, adding that protests are
expected because everyone has freedom of
speech.
Jacqueline Kennedy, Vice President of
Pan Carriebean Association, added,
“there is currently no tension between
Jewish groups and our group.”
Pan Carribean is not upset with any of
the protest of the Farrakhan speech, said
Kennedy.
“In general I have not heard of any ten-
sion between Jewish groups and black
groups,” said Elliot Frome, President of
JSC. "We are hoping to start a dialog bet-
ween JSC and ASUBA, in September,"" he
added.
Frome, however, is not sure if Fat-
rakhan's appearance has had any negative
affects on relaitons between Jewish and
black groups.
1 don't believe Farrakhan was brought
to this campus in order to have negative af-
fects on Jews," but at the same time, said
Frome, ‘those who brought his seem (o
have ignored the possibiltiy of his having
any negative affects on Jews, and have
considered only the positive affects he
might have on blacks.
“Those who brought Farrakhan to cam-
pus might have considered not bringing
him, in favor of someone else,” said
Frome. ‘There are lots of other black
leaders who could speak for blacks,
without having any negative affects on
Jews,” he added,
RZA president Gady Buiumsohn said
any charges that there is tension between
jewish groups and black groups are
“completely untrue.”
“+1 am in personel contact with certain
people involved in ASUBA, and I knew
Farrakhan was coming as far back, as
September, and members of ASUBA knew
T and RZA would be protesting his ap-
pearance,” said Buiumsohn,
‘Our protest had nothing to do with
ASUBA or this campus," said Buium-
sohn, adding ‘we would have protested
whether or not he was speaking here or at
any other place."
Bowman, who claimed there has always
been a little tension between Jewish and
servaites are the underdogs trying to get
people to listen, which isn’t always easy,"
said Korowitz.
Despite the signs of increased student
concern, the general mood of the SUNYA
campus is still apathetic, according to
Mike Corso, former S.A. president,
There is ‘less interest and enthusiasm’
than when he was in office, said Corso,
‘Students are more apathetic and career-
oriented and student leaders are not speak-
ing out like we used to," he added
Corso blamed Reagan for ‘bringing this
ambience to our country," and said that re-
cent activist events are a good start, but
there is still-a long way to go.
Regarding the various methods of ac-
tivism, SASU employs professional tactics
such as lobbying, meetings and letter-
writing to promote its issues, said Kourns,
but he added ‘Sometimes the only way to
get attention is to create a confrontation."
Miroff also agreed that both confronta-
tion and more subtle methods of activism
have their place. “There is an appropriate
time for protest becaue such methods as
lobbying don’t always dramatize the issue
and attract adherents,” he said,
Charles Wiecks, president of the
recently-revived Peace Project stressed
that in order for students to be active, they
must ‘realize the issues and what is going
on around them. They must be educated.
black groups, said that he can help these
groups work out any differences.
‘The tension is not necessarily racist,"
said Bowman, A lot of times people hear
things through the grapevine, and things
become distorted, said Bowman,
Bowman and Gawley said they hope to
schedule meetings between the groups so
everyone can voice any grievances in the
open, and hopefully resolve them to
everyone's satisfaction.
Group leaders will be contacted this
week, said Gawley, concerning the propos-
ed meetings. [a]

Minority student body achieves
unique expressions of identity
By Patrice Johnson
“She was silent while the tears formed endless paths
down her face,
Yes, her eyes were the reflections of her soul,
She had known bitterness and had joined the weary
One day she awoke and understood all that she had
experienced
She dried the tears from het eyes and the stains were
dissolving from her heart
She had found strength through » her past
confrontations
She now resides with the strong Beyond
and the determined The
She had been redeemed’?
As the semester comes to an Majority
end, minority students are left with powerful
memories of our experiences at SUNY A. Some will
permanently exit from this university as they enter
into and open up new doors of progress and
variability. Others will return in the fall to utilize
this institution so that they too can walk through
the chambers of success and upward mobility. No
matter where our footsteps lead us, we take with us
wisdom and experience from this university that
will help us. in’ forthcoming situations and
confrontations.
‘As we look over the 1984-1985 academic year, we
recall our disappointments, hard times, yet also our
victories. Some who have started out with us have
not-made it to the finish line due to various in-
terventions, We have not forgotten them; we must
remember them also. We still remember dear Renita
Wright who will stay with us always, for her light
\ shall never dim in our memories of her existence.
«When I look over this past year, the ac-
complishinents of us as a minority student body is
brought to my attention. I see one of the best

Carlos Laboy, Marlene Bryan and Laurie Midgette,

been caught up in the maze sometimes, we have
found an exit. I smite because I Know that we are

‘As I witness the graduation of fellow minority

have doubted that we'd make it this far, but we pro-

Although we have had some hills to climb over,
and some bumpy roads to cross, we've made it this

university, There were ‘so many times when I
wanted to pack my-bags and leave, but my family

posed me to many realities that I didn't know ex-

Some of the bad experiences I faced, I transformed
them into positive insights which have helped me
become more strong and productive. Whatever bad
experiences we have encountered, we can use to a
positive advantage and incorporate what we've
learned from them into our mental framework.
During my conversations with fellow students, |
often hear them say, ‘I don't know how f made it
this far."" But I do know. You have made it this far
because you have chosen to win and in the process
of winning, you have not let any variable serve as a
hindrance to your progress,
‘As we go in different angles, we shall never
depart, Our struggles at this university shall be a
vivid memory that will serve as a constant shadow.
Although there is a lot of talk going on about we
need some unity, we already have it; we just need
more of it. When we really heeded each other, we
were there in the past and we shall always be there.
We have grown to feel each other's pain and hap-
piness, Are we not one?
To all the graduating seniors, best wishes and
congratulations are extended to you..May you
never give up your internal and-external struggles
for excellence In place of rest, and may God give
you the power to always find the inner strength to
progress. To all of you who will be returning in the
fall, may you continue to strive and achieve as you
broaden your mental boundaries. We don't have to
look back and wonder ‘‘how we got over."’ We've
made it through because we are made of substance,
a substance that stems from our past traumas that
has taught us to grasp on to the rope that will lead

Sexual harassment tied to a power hierarchy
By Joyce Cohen
Sexual harrassment in the
workplace may seem a distant
problem for college student, but
many people enrolled at the
University are reporting incidents
‘once they graduate and even in
summer jobs.
Debbie, 2 student at SUNYA,
recalled that upon applying for
her job during a telephone inter-
view, she was asked various ques-
tions regarding her physical ap-
pearance. ‘He asked me about
my qualifications and then
wanted to know if I was pretty.”
The behavior continued through
the duration of her employment,
and in Fact escalated to touching.
“He would put his arm around
me and say, ‘Honey, do you
know how to make a pot of cof-
fee?’ It made me feel like I was in-
ferior — low on the totem pole...1
didn't complain because I didn’t
want to cause trouble,"
Another SUNYA student, who
wished to remain anonymous,
recalls annoying harassment.
“From day one, | was constantly
being told how pretty I was, how
sexy 1 was, It was Mattering at
first but it started to get really an-
noying...it was also definitely in-
terfering with my work, Finally,
the guy made one really rauncy
comment which gotback to my
boss. She fired him!"?
This is a relatively rare and
unusual end to sexual harass

ment. Most. victims ignore the
harasser for various reasons.
They don't want to be
makers;"" they feel it's
and to be expected"* of men; and
many just don’t kaow the proper
avenues to take. At the extreme
end of the spectrum, many
women quit their jobs.
Inevitably, as women’s employ-
ment opportunities increase, they
will encounter more instances of
sexual harassment.
Tom, a student at SUNYA, en-
countered sexual harassment
from a male superior while in the
military, ‘1 felt threatened by
both his physical presence and his
position of power. It started with
ple smart and overfriendly
comments. 1 didn’t really feel
threatened at first, Then I began
to notice occasional physical
touching — nothing too bad, just
tapping on my back of rubbing
my shoulders, 1 was always too
concerned with his influence and
position of power over me to do
‘anything about it...It ended when
he was transferred.
It is very apparent that sexual
harassment is alive and well in the
working world today. Although
women are usually the subjects of
sexual harassment, men also find
themselves in situations involving
both verbal and physical abuse.
According to the Equal
Employment Opportunity Com-
mission, sexual harassment
“Because there are four
bedrooms in the apartment,
they knew. I am not blaming
the students; we knew about
it," she said.
“The lease has nothing to do
with the grouper law," said
Mark Mishler, SA attorney.
“There is no law against four
persons on a lease, The law is
against four persons in an
apartment," he added!
Mishler also said that

As a defense, Mishler said,

“Unwelcomed sexual ad-
vances, requests for sexual favors
and other verbal or physical con-
duct of a sexual nature constitute
sexual harassment when 1) sub-
mission to such conduct is made
either explicitly or implicitly a
term or condition of an in-
dividual’s employment; 2) sub-
mission to or rejection of such
conduct by an individual is used
as the basis for employment deci-
sions affecting such individual; or
3) such conduct has the purpose
or effect of unreasonably interfer-
ing with an individual's work per-
formance’ or creating an in-
timidating, hostile, or offensive
working environment.
According to a study by Loy
and Stewart there are four basic
types of sexual harassment. These
are verbal comments such as ‘Boy
do you look sexy today!," verbal
negotiations like, ‘I can insure
your further advancement within
the company, Ms. Jones, if you
would be a little friendlier to me’
and manhandling, which includes
pinching and touching, as well as
physical assaults.
Forty-two percent of federal
employees have reported en-
countering sexual harassment,
with the most common of the
four types being verbal com-
ments, followed by some form of
touching. Negotiation as well as
assault occur far less frequently.

added.
“Instead of fixing the pro-

Mrs. Multari, adding that she

Sexual harassment has clearly
been documented to show a cor-
relation to a power hierarchy, An
authority figure, or boss, by
definition has considerably more
power than her/his subordinates,
making sexual harassment all the
more anxiety-provoking. Not
submitting to the “suggestions”
of an employer might result in
losing a job, but, in the less fre-
quent cases of harassment among
people of equal status, itis usual-
ly males harassing female co-
workers.
Miro Bergman, a former
SUNYA student, now employed
as a supervisor at a prestigious
corporation, reported large
amounts of sexual harassment at
the corporate level. According to
Bergman, "When I sce what's go-
ing on, I often ask the victim if
she would like me to speak to the
guy, or if she would rather take
care of it herself.”
Unfortunately the reality of the
situation is that most victim's
don't know where to turn or how
to cope with sexual harassment,
The effects of sexual harass-
‘ment may vary a great deal. Many
people report feelings ranging
from amusement and indifference
to a great deal of anxiety and
distress. One student remarked,
“tt made me feel so humiliated
that someone could say those
things about me — it really hurt."
People usually report some degree
of fear — fear of losing their job,
fear of physical contact and
assault. For the most part, people
find sexual harassment is annoy-
ing and interferes with their work.
In cases where males are
harassed it is usually by females in
a superior position, However,
there are many differences in the
ways males and females interpret
sexual harassment.
According to a study by Gotek,
males interpret sexual gestures
from women more positively than
women do from men. They don’t
report the distress and anxiety,
ice more men than women
are in positions of authority, men
probably don’t encounter harass-
ment with the frequency or to the
extent that women do.
If you are the victim of sexual
harassment there are several
strategies you might consider.
First, tell the harasser in no uncer-
tain terms that you are not in-
terested in the advances. If
harassment continues, make writ-
ten accounts of all incidents and
report to a superior. If the
harasser is your supervisor report
to her supervisor. Sexual harass-
‘ment is illegal and civil law suits
can also be initiated.

Using a short film depicting the problems of child
abuse, Albany Rape Crisis Center Director Judith
Condo spoke Tuesday on the types of child sexual
abusers.
The film, said Condo, makes the point that sex-
ual assault is never the responsibility of the child
and that this type of assault will never stop.
‘When you think of child sexual abuse,"* Condo
id, “*you can’t think gender problem, you have to
look at the arousal problem," Condo said, dif-
ferentiating between three types of arousal pat-
terns: homosexual, heterosexual, and pedophile.
The main difference between the three patterns is
that while both homosexuals and heterosexuals are
adults who have non-exploitive sexual orientations,
pedophiles are people who are attracted to pre-
pubescent children or children without secondary
sex characteristics, according to Condo.
““Pedophiles will hang out whereever children are
(and these) offenders will setup the circumstances
so that they can have access to these children,”
Condo said.
She added that ‘pedophiles are looking for
children that they don't have to train," any amy
even be willing to buy someone else's children,
Condo explained that ‘tone of the great ploys for
engaging children is to take pictures of them, either
naked pictures or pictures in costume.””
In order to exploit the child; the person may say,
*4do you want me to show these to your friends, or
do you want them to get out," which will then force
the child toSengage in certain sexual activities
inst his or her will, according to Condo.
‘Child pornography in many ways has to do with
pedophiles and pedophile activities," Condo add-
ed. “There has been a real series of dressing kids up
* with makeup and doing their-hair,"" she said, which
suggests that it is okay for them to be sexual
objects.
According to Condo, there are five types of
pedophiles:’ closet, regressed, fixated, cottage and
Sonimétdial. ~
A closet pedophile collects pornography dealing
With children, and said Condo, these ‘*porno collec:
tions are not just starting with violent pornography,
they might start with pictures of kids on the
beach."” Pedophiles may use any of these types of
pictures to masturbate, she added.
Regressed and fixated pedophiles tend to have
Judith Condo
Pedophiles are attracted to pre-pubescent children
some sort of legitimate access to children. Regress-
ed pedophiles have limited access to children and at
Certain times they may even marry in order to gain
this type of access, according to Condo, who added
that this person will have control over his or her
family,
Fixated pedophiles ‘gain access to large groups
of, children,*” usually males, and will accomplish
this by getting into'a profession which deals with
children, such as a teacher, in order to have
legitimate authority over the children, she said.
Cottage pedophiles, according to Condo, “begin
keeping records of other pedophiles and then share
the material."’ They create a type of network, she
added.
The last type, commercial, are pedophiles who do
the buying, selling and exploiting of children, Con-
do said.
According to Condo, ‘dealing with the problem
‘means instructing children what to look out for,
what is wrong and how to say no to anyone who
makes them feel uncomfortable."
“If we bury our heads in the sand and say that
this is an interrelated family problem, then we are
not facing the issue; it won't stop by itself," Condo
said. o

A newly recognized student group, LAME, or Lob-
byists Against Mandatory Examinations, claims that no
student should be forced to take an exam if he or she does
not want to, ‘Let me cite some examples. You wish to
become a policeman or get into grad school, and you take
an exam, That is your choice, But in no other place than
college or other schools are you FORCED to take an ex-
am, We are not against exams, we just feet it should be up
to the student,"” said Gregg Tucker, President of the
LAME.
| Richard Dalton
The group consists of about 15 to 20 students who are
so opposed to forced examinations that they plan on be-
ing as annoying as possible to anyone whom they see. The
group is not funded by any other organization. “We .
don't mind paying for full-page ads in the ASP, or paying
for thousands of posters. We're just getting these large
sums of money from the people on LAME," claimed
Tucker. “I just don't want people to be fooled by
STUDEX, Student Exams in the 80's, the group that sup-
ports forced exams,” Some of your tuition money goes
towards the printing and distribution of these
examinations.
“Without this money from your tuition, exams will no
longer exist," claims the president of STUDEX. Every
two years, students vote on whether or not exams should
be mandatory. In the past months there have been LAME
attempts to eliminate mandatory exams at Buffalo and
Syracuse Universities. Although they have been unsuc-
cessful, Gregg Tucker insists, “Sometimes getting justice
takes time.”
“Things can easily be distorted and people may be
fooled, Students were all confused from the misinforma-
tion that was around. If we lose, we'll be losing for all the
wrong reasons,” claims Cy Perg, co-chair of STUDEX's
local chapter. ‘Attacking mandatory exams is like at-
ng exams altogether. Nobody will take an exam if he
or she doesn't have to.’
Tucker feels students are being deceived by STUDEX.
“1 don’t think the students realize the implications of
STUDEX, Exams are a multi-million dollar corporation.
Students aren't even involved. They have professors who
work full time that make up exams. Right now, pro-exam
lobbyists are coming from all over the state to fight for
exams. Don’t be fooled!" exclaimed Tucker. “I urge
every student to vote NO to MANDATORY exams!!!””
LAME is not making attempts to fight’ physical exams
or allergy exams, “Those type of exams are strictly for
the student's benefit. They're different. The exams we're
against are strictly educational, We're also against the
fact that STUDEX fights for issues that are far from be-
ing beneficial for students. For instance, the No. 2 Pencil
Bill, which will force students to give a $ cent deposit on
No. 2 pencils to make sure they are returned after exams.
That's not beneficial to students!” claims Gregg.
But Cy Perg maintains, “Because you're a student
doesn't mean you're not affected by students stealing No.
2 pencils." He continued, “We all lose out when students
steal No. 2 pencils. There is not one issue that STUDEX
works on that does not affect students in some way."*
“A lot of us agree with exams. The fact that they're
mandatory is what we oppose,"’ maintained Gregg as he
and his friend continued on their 15 minute walk from the
uptown campus to Alumni Quad. But inside sources say
that not only is LAME against mandatory exams, but
after that comes mandatory attendance for Gym courses,

aminations. As a matter of fact, I don’t mind exams at
all. They could probably help me in my math, Like last
week when I said LAME has spent only $250. 1 was later
told that $200 for an ASP ad and over $150 for all the
posters, tacked on to the cost of some professional anti-
exam organizers adds up to over $400, I didn’t realize
that."
Gregg feels that students should be (old the truth about
forced examinations. ‘Students should realize that they
are being coerced. So, we're trying to screw up — I mean
— stop — something awful — 1 mean — positive —
because there are underlying principles we must uphold.
‘These exams are strictly educational, and NEVER should
someone be forced to take an exam that is strictly educa-
tional,” maintains Gregg Tucker. a

Telethon kudos
To the Editor:
We would like to thank the entire University communi-
ty for their never-ending support of Telethon ‘85. Your
combined efforts have helped us raise over $38,000 for
the Albany Boys Club and the Drakeland Day Care
Center. Although our activities and planning are finished
for the year, the monies raised are just beginning 10 be
put to good use. It is hard to express how much Telethon
"85 has meant t0 us, but we will always look back with the
fondest of memories.
Telethon '86 is underway, Co-chairs Lisa Buitekant
and Suzanner Murphy are hard at work. We wish them
the best of luck and much success. We hope that you will
give them as much support as you have given us.
Much thanks,

Budget grudge
To the Editor:
We, the Black students of SUNY at Albany, are
outraged at the treatment of our organization ASUBA
during Student Association's budgeting process.
We feel that we have been unfairly slighted, as a result
of insensitive, totalitarian leadership of Student Associa-
tion and this year's Central Council Committee Chairs.
As members of this University communtiy, we have a
right to an equitable opportunity for a suitable environ-
ment, during our pursuit of and quest for academic suc-
cess. With this right, which is inalienable, we demand that
the wrongs be righted. We pay the Student Activity fee, a:
do the other cultural groups and have an unequivocal
right to see our ‘tax dollars" distributed fairly.
‘We have attempted to appeal to this year’s (lame duck)
President, as well as the controtler and Central Council
Budget Committee, to no avail.
‘The number of Black students on this campus is not

rth however it is large enough to be recognizable and
eard.
Due to the exercise of our right of Free Speech, we have
been singled out for destruction and we will not allow it to
happen.
Our demands are simple, we want to see our budget
reviewed by this new executive branch of Student
Association and a commitment to making it more
equitable with the other minority cultural groups funded
by Student Association: not a vocal committment, but a
binding written agreement by the President-elect, and the
Vice-President-elect.
This is our only comment.
Albany State University Black Alliance
(ASUBA)
Unfair system
of an unannounced additional policy, many seniors were
unjustly prevented from obtaining tickets to particular
events,
This was the first year that a system was instituted that
rotated the day and time that tickets were available,
similar to the current class registration procedures, This
gave everyone a fair chance of oblaining tickets 10
specific events if their time slot was early on a particular
day; for those senior card holders it was on a first come
first served basis.
Unfortunately, this is where the fairness ended. A
handful of seniors began lining up in the LC's at 2:30
p.m. to await the sale of tickets that were to commence at
5 p.m, It was at this point, 2:30 p.m., an unprecedented
and unpublicized decision was made to give numbers to
seniors who were waiting. These same numbers were also
given to seniors who just happened to stumble onto them
who had no intentions of waiting until 5 p.m, Because of
this unannounced procedure, many seniors scheduled for
the initial time slot arrived an hour early to find only a
few people waiting. Moments after getting in line, they
were appalled to learn that there were actually *100' or
more in line to purchase a limited number of tickets.
In effect, what Senior Class President Jeff Schneider
did was to reinstitute last year’s senior week procedure of
randomly assigning numbers. This was the same pro-
cedure that he was so proud to have changed. Schneider
himself commented in the ASP that last year's procedure
was, "great if you were number one, but number 3,000
didn't get anything.”
Common sense dictates that numbers should be
distributed to people in line when the line becomes too
large to manage. Common sense also dictates that these
numbers should not be parcelted until shortly before the
event, in this case tickets sales at $ p.m. This way the peo
ple on line were the seniors who truly wanted the tickets
and would have legitimately earned their place in line. If
fifty numbers were handed out to people who stumbled
‘onto them, together they could purchase up to 200 tickets
— a very large amount in view of the limited quantity
able,
For those seniors who arrived early and found they
were buried in line, it was pathetic to hear Jeff Schneider
explain to them, “I'm sorry. There's nothing I can do."
He was right, he had already done more than enough,
—Bruce G, Blumberg
Double standard
To the Editor:
Concerning President Reagan's visit to Bitburg; we are
shocked that Mr. Reagan, who has done more for Israel
than most U.S. Presidents of the last ten years, has been
attacked with a viciousness and a self-righteous move
more befitting an Assad or a Quaddafi.
Israel being more dependent on the U.S. than vice-
versa, we would like to emphasize that biting the hand
which feeds you (and heavily at that) is a gratuitous and
dangerous exercise.
—Thomas Reimer
—John McCoy
Playoff posting
To the Editor:
On Saturday, April 27 the Division Il AMIA softball
playoffs were supposed to be announced.
Tam on a team that went 4-1 and expected to make the
playoffs. On that Saturday members of my team checked
the bulletin board in campus center where the teams mak-
ing the playoffs were supposed to be posted.
The teams were never posted, instead each team mak-
ing the playoffs was called. The teams expecting to make
it and didn't were left up in the air. They should have at
least posted the fact that they would call the playoff
teams,
1 think the whole situation was ridicutous and U hope it
will be corrected next year.
—Assorted Cheeses:
A rebuttal
To the Editor:
I would like to address Howard Eissenstat’s letter en-
titled “Fact or Fallacy?” Eissenstat states that he has
never mistaken a powerdrill for a phallic symbol, nor
anything else except his phallus. Although I am sure that
all of his readers were pleased with such information, he
appears to be missing the point, Brian de Palma, director
of “Body Double," was certainly aware of both the
drill’s' position and purpose. The obvious message con-
veyed to all attentive viewers was male domination
through sexuality — an all-encompassing power over
women via the penis (therefore any phallic symbol) —
capable of any and every imaginable form of manipula-
tion; a power which, in this film, was expressed through
murder. Eissenstat must not confuse his awareness and
intrepretation of a scene with what the maker of the
intended to present to thousands of viewers:
Eissenstat goes on to maintain that the discomfort one
might exercise while watching such a scene is simply “one
‘of the costs of a free society." Here | would like to
disagree. Although ours is one of the better-developed
societies, it is far from being worthy of such a title, It is,
iculously clear that there are still situations
existing within our society which seriously prevents many
peoples from experiencing “freedom” — Blacks, Jews,
}, the elderly just to name a few, These
hindering conditions, however, are inexcusable and
ble. Although the needed changes are diverse and
number (E.R.A., true religious freedom,
of societal attitudes, et they are not unat-
tainable, We as a society do not and should not accept ex-
isting inequalities as being a price we have to pay for a
supposedly free" society.
Finally, Eissenstat also discusses the issue of por-
nography and the effects it has on increasing the occur-
rence of rape. He cites a study performed in Denmark
which purports that the availability of porn has caused a
decrease in the number of rapes in that country. It should
be noted that no single statistic is a conclusive statistic.
Denmark is not the U.S., and therefore a more scoping
and inclusive examination of its culture and society is
needed prior to the declaration of any conclusions.
Studies performed within the U.S, have shown that ex-
posure to porn has definitive, adverse effects on both’
male and female attitudes concerning appropriate
sentences for rape, the value of the Feminist movement,
and women's sexuality.
1am glad that Eissenstat considers rape to be a crime
that “isn't something a guy can laugh off."" Women,
however, must fight 10 convince the rest of his gender of
the same,
—Wendy L. Cervi
Non-letter
To the Edito
This letter is written in response to Tuesday's article en-
titled ‘Albany's Fraternity Row" by Mike Dermansky.
We are in non-disagreement with this article. 1, Mary
Furlong, and my friend Michele Walls had a non-
discussion about this article and in light of the resurgence
of fraternities and sororities at SUNY Albany, we decided
Not to get together and to form a non-sorority of our
own. 1 am the non-president of the unnamed sorority.
Michele is the non-president of the sororit
power in the unorganization. Our non-meetings are held
nowhere and at no particular time or place. Rush was last
night, No one came. No one was informed. We put up no
posters with our non-donations (We are a non-profit,
non-organization). I sat in Humanities 232, and declared
in a non-resonant tone of voice to no one that 1 am the
non-president of this unorganized non-sorority. Michele
stood facing the corner of the SUNY bus circle and mere-
ly thought to herself that she is the non-president of the
. There is no conflict of interest here because
I don’t care and Michele doesn’t care. We are in agrees
ment in our non-agreement although we haven't discuss-
ed the isue. Our National non-chapter has no interest in
our affairs. Our sweatshirts will be non-existent. Possibly
no letters on a white background. Perhaps not. We are
open to non-suggestions. We will be indifferent to them.
We are hot sending away for them soon so do be hasty
with your non-suggestions. If you don't want to noi join
our non-organization, don't call me, Don’t call Michele,
Don't discuss your intentions with your friends. Just
declare yourself a non-member in any manner you wish.
Simply mentioning the new title to yourself should be suf-
ficient. Some may wish to be very unclaborate. This will
not be unacceptable. Our non-chapter does not have any
specific clause relating to this non-procedure. Our next
non-mecting will not be at the Rat. We will not be discuss-
ing non-conformity at the non-meeting. In addition, we
will not be considering a non-wet tee-shirt contest at our
next non-party which will not be held on the podium on
May 16th. Hope not to see you there.

A STEP BEYOND SCIENCE FICTION:
FRIDAY, MAY 3, 1985 0 ALBANY STUDENT PRESS'4Q
Letters concerning Minister Farrakhan
Farrakhan’s merits
To the Editor:
Iwas very disappointed by the ASP's in-
sensitive treatment of the Farrakhan issue
in its April 26 edition. With little excep-
tion, the ASP sacrificed journalistic in-
tegrity for thie sake of controversy.
A newspaper should objectively bring
the story to the reader, not mold it and
shape it to fit “‘comfo into conver-
sation. Indeed, Farrakhan is a man with a
great deal more to talk about than Chris-
tianity, Judaism and the state of Israel.
I, as a part of SUNYA's black com-
munity, was outraged by the comparisons
made between Hitler, the Ku Klux Klan
and Farrakhan.
‘Whether or not you agree with him, Far-
takhan is a man whose hand you can
shake, Hitler gassed, burned and brutally
killed millions of Jews. The KKK, the
south’s ‘‘good ol’ boys,'? lynched, burned
and castrated thousands of black people.
Farrakhan is a man whyo speaks from a
pulpit and whose only weapon is a
microphone. How can a comparison be
made?
Last Friday's edition suggested that Far-
fakhan take Martin Luther King, Jr.'s
pacifist approach. Hasn't every successful
is own way? For his people,
Farrakhan is a desperately needed strong,
black leader with merits of his own, For
black students on this campus such a sug-
gestion — follow men who are ‘just like
MLK, Jr. — isa slap in the face, It is a
greatly resented attempt at choosing our
leaders for us.
Martin Luther King, Jr. was a peace-
‘seeking, dedicated and nonviolent mat
He was gunned down in an act of racially-
motivated violence when he started getting
too close to his ‘‘dream."* It goes much
deeper than, Jewish, students ngt, wanting.
Farrakhan to speak ere. z
On the night of his speech Farrakhan
‘was flanked by security people. Whenever
black leaders have unified their peoplé to
society has wished
to be “free of them." No exaggeration;
we've had Malcolm X and Marcus Garvey.
Farrakhan has a deep understanding of
the oppression of his people and what it
takes to break free. Yes, many black
students went to hear him out — they
know what he is about. Nevermind his
politics, Farrakhan belongs on this cam-
pus. He had a message: “We shall
overcome."
Rosalyn L. Lee
Double standard
To the Editor:
First, | must say that I neither agree
with, nor support, Minister Louis Far-
rakhan and I believe in Israel and its ex-
istence. Also, 1 am a caucasian.
Second, and the basis of this letter, 1
would like to comment upon the attitude
and actions taken towards Mr. Farrakhar
The statements quoted in the ASP'from
one Mr. Mordechai Levy, leader of the
Jewish Defense Organization (JDO), that
“We do not protest him coming here to
SUNYA, we protest him as a human be-
ing,”” sounds very much like the attitudes
the Ku Klux Klan takes towards Blacks,
The rudeness and disrespect towards Mr.
Farrakhan's right to speak was the exact
same action that members of RZA had
criticized the protestors against Rabbi
Kahane for doing. The only difference was
that RZA was more violent in their loud
banging on the glass windows and loud
chants of “Who do we want ... Fa
rakhan, how do we want him
‘You can be sure that anyone wishing deat
upon Kahane would have been branded an
anti-semetic racist. But not when RZA are
the protestors, they are doing it under the
guise of stopping racism. (Double Stan-
dard??) But is not what they are doing
itself racist and exactly what the Ku Klux
Klan does behind the mask of white
suptemacy? Yes! ,) 5
The evidence to support this again
comes from Mr, Levy, when he says,
“Those who brought Farrakhan here will
be treated as enemies of the Jewish people
and will (be) punished accordingly.” Con-
tinuing, Levy said, ‘We have the names,
phone numbers, and addresses of those in-
volved and they will be punished." Are
they going to burn a Star of David on the
front lawns of those people much as the,
KKK burns a cross on the lawn of those
against white supremacy? Sure does sound
like it.
Surely from Mr. Levy's above mention-
ed statements it is apparent his comment,
“Louis Farrakhan is a klansman with
black skin, there is no difference between
his ideas and that of the Klan," is what he
professes and probably practices. There is
no difference between the racism Mr. Levy
(and the RZA since they stated they sup-
Port Levy) seeks to destroy and that which
he practices. Both are violent, extre
and show no respect for human life.
T support the protest by RZA, since that
is their right, but RZA should not use a
double standard in what they profess and
how they act?!
Robert E. Beckes
Misguided views
To the Editor:
In regard to the ASP article on Friday,
Aprit 26 entitled, ‘Over 400 Gather in Fer-
vent Protest of Muslim Minister,’” 1 think
that the views of most of the protestors, as
well as the protest in general, was
misrepresented.
Much too much of the aforementioned
article was spent in representing thé views
of one person from a radical Jewish’
organization (JDO). | think it would have
been a fittle bit more justified if in fact the
JDO had any part in organizing the protest
or even if the organization was invited to
attend, The author of the article would
have been less biased if he had interviewed
other members of the protéét or at least
other unaffiliated vocal participants.
The protest on the whole Was'a peaceful
one,’ Chants of ‘Death fo ‘Farrakhan’?
were looked upon with? scorn “and
dissipated quickly, Bangihg upon the win-
dows of the LC’s was effectively
prevented. Pacifism was the extent of the
protest, for not many wanted to violate the
“two wrongs don't’fhake a right’” dictum
and advocate violgfice in the presence of a
violence advocate (Farrakhan).
Lam not accusing the author of lying but
I do in fact strongly suggest that there is
certainly much harm done when news is
presented in part and not in whole. Sins of
ommission are a plague and must be
eliminated along with lies, especially in the
scope of the media. Be careful so this
mistepresentation shall too, never happen
again!
Howard Mueller
Biased coverage
To the Editor:
The ASP’s tremendously biased coverage
of the Farrakhan speech and protest needs
to be corrected, The informed reader of
Friday's edition who was not at either pro-
test (yes, there were two) and. who is
somehow unaware of Farrakhan's normal-
ly vitriolic rhetoric would form the impres-
sion that 400 bloodthirsty Jews were out to
prey on an angelic, benevolent black man
and his well meaning followers.
Farrakhan, the most
in the 1984 presidential election (and he
wasn't even running), whose remarks his
associate Jesse Jackson himself disavow-
ed, is in fact a man teeming with hatred for
members of all religions other than his
‘own, affirmed by anti-semitic and anti-
christian comments, That he suddenly
denies the most scathing accusations
(‘Judaism is a gutter religion’) makes him
a two-faced liar too. That he “disagrees
with the State of Israel” (an almost neutral
remark compared’ to his calling Israel a
“criminal state") is a thinly veiled attempt
at disguising his anti-semitism as_anti-
Israel,
The protest rally the ASP described
resembles a lynch mob. This was hardly
the case. The JSC rally was calm, centered
around Jewish and Christian and black
‘and white speakers condemning. Fi
rakhan, The RZA rally was more emo-
tional, however violence was never sug-
gested or desired, One person from outside
the campus community was there, who
made some maligning remarks; he was
silenced by the people there and the leaders
of the rally.
‘The most unfortunate result of the event
was that Jew and black were pitted against
each other,

narrowly edged out Binghamton, The club
posted a 7-2 record.
This spring, the team is playing comfor-
tably above .500 with one meet left, First
singles, Dave Grossman, has a legitimate
chance at being selected to the NCAA
tournament. The Grossman-Tom Schmitz
doubles team also has a shot at beirig tabb-
ed. Selections will be made on May 6.
The women’s volleyball team captured
the first-ever SUNYAC tournament to
earn the right to compete in the NCAAs.
The Danes were climinated in the second
round. Leading the team was Patty
Munhall, the setter, and Amy Rosenberg.
‘The women’s soccer team, coached by
Amy Kidder, closed out its season at .500,
Facing a grueling schedule, the chab seem-
ed to learn a lot this season, evidenced by
their strong conclusion. They will be
fielding an almost identical team next year.
In the spring, the Great Danes’ baseball
team came just shy of their first-ever
SUNYAC playoff berth. Bighamton prov-
ed too strong at the end.
Coach Ed Zaloom's pitching held up
well. Warren Miller and Chris Fletcher
were effective as starters and junkball pit-
cher John Kalinsky excelled in relief.

record with one game remaining. Their

Oneonta.
Two club-teams made giant strides this
year.
In its second year of existence, the
Albany State hockey club skated to a .500
season. The President, Drew Rubin, and
Vice President, Paul Essner, are hoping
the squad will be granted varsity status in
two to three years.
The Albany crew, in their rookie season,
did remarkably well. The men’s and
‘women’s team swept Hamilton two weeks
ago and beat Union last week.
In cross country, the veterans on the
male harriers of 1984 faced the pressure of
improving on their 1983 season when they
placed eighteenth in the nation. They
responded by ending Fredonia’s six year
reign as SUNYAC champion and by
finishing sixteenth at the NCAAs, The
team was able to make the trip to OFio by
coming from way back to finish second at
the qualifier. The Danes, who fin'shed
with a 9-3 dual meet record, were 91 one
time ranked tenth in the country. Senior
Ed McGill was the first man; classmates
Chris Callaci and Jim Erwin were co-
captains.

home runs that broke the back of the
Great Danes.
After their 4 run eighth inning, Utica
came on with 5 runs in the ninth to round
it out at 12-5.
For Albany, freshman Adam Pullman
was the offensive leader, going 3 for 4 with
3 singles and one RBI. For Utica, besides
Lavelleck's 3 for 4, 2 home run, 2 RBI per-
formance, Scott Luck was 3 for 4 with a 3
run homer of his own.
Pullman's performance for the Danes is
one reason why the Dane future looks so
bright. The Danes of '85 were a young
team. Young on offense and young in the
pitching department.
Youth sometimes translates into incon-
sistency, and this team was no exception.
All year long, it seemed that, when the pit-
ching was there, the hitting disappeared
and vice versa, On the sporadic occasions
when both phases came together, the
Danes were very tough to beat.
‘Adam Pullman came in as a freshman
and more or less claimed the first base job
as his own. Of this season, Pullman said,
“I was pretty happy with my year. I could
have hit a little better, but I think I showed
what I could do against Utica.”
As for the future, Pullman was very op-
timistic. “We should be a lot tougher next
year,” said the would be sophonore.
“The pitchers will be healthier and more

Despite the recent losing streak of the Albany
State men's tennis team, which has lost their last
four matches, they are enthusiastic about their up-
coming match against Hartwick today.
The Danes lost a tough match against Williams
Tuesday, 5-4. They were victorious in four of six
singles matches, but in losing all three doubles they
handed the match over to Williams,
Dave Grossman defeated Craig Hammond at
first singles, 6-4, 6-2. Mike Dermansky beat
Williams fourth singles player Clarey, 7-5, 6-4. At
fifth singles David Zobler defeated Peterson, 6-4,
6-3, Mark Sanders was victorious at sixth
in second and third singles, respe
was overwhelmed by Tim Rivers of
6-1, 6-2, Schmitz also suffered a big loss against
ig Callahan, 6-2, 6-0.
All three doubles teams, which consist of
Grossman and Schmitz, Eisenberg and Dermansky,
and Sanders and Zobler were defeated, The
ing match was the third doubles team of
Sanders and Zobler. They were nipped in the first
set, 7-6, but came back strong in the second set win-
ning, 6-3. Due to darkness the third set had to be
moved indoors. There was about a half an hour
delay in which Sanders and Zobler cooled off and
lost, 6-2.
“We were psyched after winning, but the delay
broke our rhythm," said Sanders,
The Danes played great despite the tough loss.
“Williams is a good team. They beat Amherst and
Amherst beat us easily," said Coach Bob Lewis,
“Our guys did a fine job against them."
The Danes: were crushed by Colgate losing, 5-1
without even playing doubles. “We were blown off
the courts," said Sanders. ‘Part of the reason we
lost by such a big margin is van lag. After getting
home late Tuesday night we got up the next morn:
ing to travel (wo more hours in the van to Colgate."
The only victory for Albany was first singles
player Dave Grossman, He defeated Allen Flowers,
6-1, 3-6, 6-4,
Eisenberg played a fine match against Dave Con-
isar of Colgate, despite losing, 6-1, 4-6, 7-5. At
sixth singles Sanders was defeated, 6-2, 6-3.
Schmitz, Dermansky, and Zobler all lost com-
petitive matches at third, fourth, and fifth singles.
It was a trying week for the Danes, playing two
tough schools in a row, however, their spirits are up
to make a come back against Hartwick Friday,
Albany beat Hartwick in the fall, but it will be a
tough match as they will be without their number
one singles player Grossman and their fifth singles
player Mitch Gerber.
“We've been on a losing streak, but hopefully
we'll come back against Hartwick Friday," said
Zobler. “*We are psyched to win — we need a good
win to close out the season."
Despite tough breaks the team has accomplished
its’ goals, They won the RPI tournament,
SUNYAC's for the sixth year in a row, and they
placed third in the ECAC tournament out of 30
teams,
“Lam disappointed though, that the team didn't
play up to its capabilities this spring,"” said Coach
Lewis. ‘Perhaps it's due to academic pressure, lack
of innovation, or just tough competition, but we
didn’t play as well as we did in the fall, Q

Great Dane year in review: A hot winter season
By Mare Berman
SHORTS FDIOR
The Albany State winter sports teams spent the chilling
Albany winter on a perpetual hot streak.
All told, the winter clubs had a combined record of
ing the Albany Student Press editors with their
heads twirling ‘as they tried to decide which
team belonged on the back page. There were many issues
where every one of the eight teams were deserving of back
;page coverage.
It was incredible how each winter team surpassed
their pre-season goals,"” said Dean Chang, managing
editor of the ASP. “We definitely got our share of com-
plaints from teams wondering why they weren't on the
back page of a certain issue."*
Still, through it all, one man stood head and shoulders
above the rest, The legendary Dick Sauers, in his 30th
year as coach, became the 38th collegiate coach to win
500 games — the first one in Division II, In the process,
Sauers carried a group of players that went an unSauers-
like 14-12, to a 22-6 final record and an at-large NCAA
Tournament bid. He was the only choice for Division It
coach of the year.
In the pre-season, the magic number for Savers’ 500th
victory was “21"" — a goal that seemed unattainable con-
sidering their '83-'84 performance. Bolstered by a veteran,
backcoutt of Dan Croutier and Dave Adam, and aided by
an intelligent defense characteristic of Sauers-coached
teams, the Danes reached their pre-season goal.
Victory number $00 couldn't have come at a more ap-
propriate time — the opening round of the SUNYAC
playoffs, which Albany State hosted. After the Danes
thrashed Brockport for the historic victory, Sauers was

paraded around University Gym, hoisted above the
shoulders of two of the luckier players, much to the ap-
provat of 3,000 adoring fans.
‘The Danes lost the next night in the SUNYAC finals to
Buffalo State, but Albany still received an NCAA tourni
ment bid to the Northeast Regionals, That's where this
memorable season came to an end, on a Worcester,

fate was sealed when Dave Adam's last-second jumper
glanced off the rim,
‘The '84-'85 season basketball season couldn't be
reviewed without mention of the sudden fan support in-
itiated by the birth of fraternities. ZBT, along with other
newly-formed frats, helped make University Gym a noisy
and exciting place (o watch a basketball game.
The women’s basketball squad, led by the sterling ef-
forts of Rainny Lesane, soared to a first place finish in
the SUNYAC East with a 23-4 record.
Coach Mari Warner's team was upset in the SUNYAC
finals by Buffalo State and were surprisingly snubbed
from the NCAA tournament.
Lesane, a junior guard, became the first woman in
Albany State history to surpass the 1,000-point plateau.
Lori Bayba, a transfer, surprised Warner with her all-
around talents, She led the team in rebounds, played
strong defensively and averaged close to 10 points a
game,
‘Andy Seras, an 1984 Olympic alternate, made his
return to the already multi-talented wrestling team and
helped them post a 17-3 dual-meet record.
The four-time All-American failed to lose a regular
season match and let that momentum carry him to an
NCAA Division Ill championship — the first of his il.
lustrious wrestling career. In the Division 1 tournament,
Seras’ Olympic experience proved no help as he was
bounced out in the first round. Senior Dave Averill, a
three-time All-American and last year's 126-pound
NCAA champion, and Shawn Sheldon, an All-American
in his freshman season, both wrestled way below their
ability at the NCAAs. The Danes’ one-two punch failed
to earn All-American honors,
It was a banner season for the Danes’ gymnastics team
as they were ranked seventh in the post-season NCAA
Division II-III polls.
The squad set a SUNY record for most total points in a
meet while two team members set school records: Sue
Leskowitz on the vault and Michelle Husak competing in
the floor exercise.
The Danes hosted this year's ECACs and wourid up

The Albany State football team had another sub-par
season, finishing at 5-5.
With Mike Milano sidelined for the year with a broken
fibula suffered in the opening game victory against
Ithaca, Coach Bob Ford played quarterback musical
chairs until he handed the ball over to Jeff Russell, a
freshman. It was only the second time in Dane history
that a freshman quarterbacked the club.
Russell spent most of his time handing the ball off to
fullback Dave Soldini, who set a single-season rushing
record with 1,116 yards.
Criticism befell Coach Ford this season because many
observers feel the Albany schedule might have been too
powerful. Besides playing powerhouse Division Ill

Cathedral by Raymond Carver
a collection of short stories
‘Vintage Contemporaries Series
228 pp., $4.95, paperback
In the literary world, Raymond Carver is
considered a writer of “stature” and for
good reason, His obvious talent shines
brightly in Cathedral, a group of twelve
short stories that read well together.
Carver's characters are drawn so realistical-
ly that no matter what happens in the
story, they are convincing as people and
sable to command a reader's interest and
respect,
Tom Kacandes
‘The stories center on. the way people
react to one another and to outside events,
Carver has tremendous insight into how
people think and make decisions. They
struggle trying to define their lives and
identities, but not in “literary”sounding
prose; they sound like real people. In what
is arguably the collection’s best story, "A
Small, Good Thing”, a baker has unknow-
ingly harrased two bereaved parents about
picking up their dead son’s birthday cake:

The Bushwacked Piano
by Thomas McGuane
Vintage Contemporaries Series
220pp., $5.95, paperback
By way of comparison, The Bushwacked
Piano is easily the most beloved fiction of
the seventies. Equipped with scathing
humor, sardonic wit and poguane exhibits
an adventurous tale of levity and pathos.
M. O. Thomas
While perusing this literary work, it is
not unusual to perceive a similarity bet-
ween McGuane’s style and the more
cerebral regions of an Erskine Caldwell
novel; satiric visions of America as it reach-
ed its pinnacle of prosperity in the 1950's
are mildly reminiscent. of Holden
Caulfield's search for himself in Catcher in
the Rye. Unquestionably a spawn of the
contemporary literary deminionde, pro-
tagonist Nicholas Payne serves as an exam-
ple of how not to enjoy life.

“With valves.”
“You're going to get a crack at cooling
your heels in our admirable county jail, do
you know that?”
“Back off now, or what | leave of your
head won't draw flies at a raree show.”
Conceivably, each of us has been caught
ctimson-fisted at one time or another, with
a sweaty hand inside the cookie jar. Payne
has rather a bad habit of dipping into
everybody's cookie jar. Edna and Duke Fit-
zgerald, progenitors of Ann (Payne's
playmate), are not overly thrilled with the
young drifter To the elder Fitzgerald's,
Payne is a young turk completely bereft of
all common sense and hell-bent on destruc:
tion. Payne weaves his way in and out of
Edna and Duke's soft frame of existence,
removing a hefty chunk of their sanity and
well-being with each appearance.
There were dark times when Elna Fit
zgerald saw an exaggerated reality in her
mind's eye of Payne hitching in naked Fury
over her spread-cagled daughter or worse,
the opposite of that, At those times, Missus

While touring the country in his Hudson

capitalistic goals, Ann Fitzgerald is an ex-

Payne, has a tremendous id and enjoys any
chance for excitement which comes her
way. She keeps her spare time occupied
with photography, an avocation replete
with the opportunities to broaden one's
aesthetic horizons. Ann is not to be seen as
an odalisque, but as a free spirited lady
who does exactly as she wishes, Wayne
Codd is Duke Fitzgerald's smallminded
flunky who delights in dishing out grief

“Giai Phong! Phong! (Liberation!)”
So cry the residents of the city of Saigon, once the
nerve center of the American effort in Vietnam, now
the last bastion of the crumbling government of
South Vietnam. The date: April 30, 1975.
It had taken only 55 days. Just 55 days for the
North Vietnamese and Vietcong troops to overrun
once impregnable military centers of the U.S. and its
ally, the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN):
‘Da Nang, Cam Rahn Bay, Khe Salnh, Hue, and now,
finally, Saigon. The ease with which the Communists
under General Van Tien Dung had routed the ARVN.
astounded even Hanoi. A sixteen-year war was now
at its end. At the gates of Saigon, they wait.
In the city itself, chaos supplants the authority of a
government in its death throes. Looters raid shops
and military stores as crowds seeking evacuation
flock to the besieged American embassy, Haggard
Marines await the helicopters that will pluck them
from the quandry of Vietnam. Finally, the choppers
do arrive, Landing on the rooftop of the embassy, the
last outpost of an army once a half-million strong, the
choppers snatch the Marines from the Embassy,
dodge sporadic ground fire from ARVN troops (irate
at being left behind), and fly away from the city.

Shortly thereafter, a Soviet-built T-54 tank crashes
through the gates of Independence Palace. General
Duong Van “Big” Minh, South Vietnam’s last presi-
dent, delivers an unconditional surrender to the
North Vietnamese, and is quickly hustled off to a “re

With brutal speed, North Vietnam moved to
eliminate their one-time ally from the political spec
trum, First, as was mentioned, came the military sup-
plantion. This might have been tolerated by the
southerners. After all, wasn't it the North which car:
ried out most of the operations after 19687 Later,
however, it became clear that Hanoi had other,
darker purposes behind this usurpation, and that in
the words of a former Vietcong official, “something
was dreadfully wrong,”
Indeed it was. The disarming of the VC was quick-
ly followed by the termination of the VC political
wing: the National Liberation Front. All major posts
in occupied South Vietnam were held by Nor-
therners, Finally, in 1976, the death knell of the VC
was knolled: #1, » North and South were to be unified,
Radio Hanoi announced, The VC had never been
consulted,
Not surprisingly, many former VC became disen-
chanted. Some protested the precipitous reunifica

a “fraternal, socialist ally,” with whom they had
fought for 16 years, Hanoi’s response to. their
brothers’ complaint is best summed up by Doan Van

transferred to a 15'25 foot room, with 40 to 100
prisoners. Every day I watched my friends die at my

Many others of Toai’s comrades were jailed, Some
even fled to the West. Others, less fortunate, were
executed, Giai Phong.
War in “Heaven”
When North Vietnamese officers are assigned duty
in the South, they sometimes speak of “going to
heaven.” And strange as it may seem, the South (par-
ticularly Saigon) is something of a paradise when
compared to the North, Food is more abundant and
of better quality, Night clubs, bars and even prostitu-
tion remain all too conspicuous. And in Ho Chi Minh
City, it’s just like the old days under the Americans.
Reports one visiting American in the Atlantic
Monthly: “Within five minutes of my hotel, [ was of-

ty. The inmates included: peasants, former ARVN,
Buddhists, Catholics, intellectuals, former VC,
students, “subversives,” “traitors,” and of course
“counter-revolutionaries.” In addition to the shackling
and overcrowding mentioned by Toai, prisoners are
subjected to hours of political indoctrination,
beatings, torture, below subsistence diets, and forced
labor,
After learning to parrot communist dogma, in-
mates are then likely shipped to the New Economic
Zones, regions somewhat less inocuous than their
designation would imply. Here, in these remote, lush
areas, prisoners are forced to perform such batk-
breaking tasks as land clearing, vegetation removal,
and rice planting. Many have died from exhaustion
and heat prostration.
Nor is life much better for the average Vietnamese
peasant. Naturally, basic personal freedoms such as
the right to assembly, a free press, free speech, and
other such “burgoisie” concepts are denied. Viet-
namese live under the omnipresent guard of an in-
military occupation of the city, capitalism is still the
rage in Saigon,
Not surprisingly, all of this “decadent materialism”
provokes more than a little consternation in the

“Tam not a Russian”
Tam not a Russian.” It is a phrase Westerners
would do well to remember when travelling in Viet-
ham, Although reports filtering out of Vietnam often
vary widely in their conclusions, one aspect has re-
mained consistent: nobody loves the Russians, The
reasons for this are complex, but surely one major
reason for the widespread dislike of the Russians is
their well-known cultural arrogance. The Soviets,
who number about 10,000 “advisors” plus
dependents, make no serious attempt to mingle with
the populace. They are known to patronize bars: and
restaurants, but they earn the ire of the southerners
by avoiding the markets. (They are often called
“Americans without dollars.”)
To the Soviets, the contempt in which the Viet-
namese hold them must be surprising. The USSR pro-
vides Vietnam with $3-4 billion dollars in military
and economic aid, a serious drain on its economy. It
buys Vietnamese exports at subsidized rates and pro-
vides Vietnam with petroleum at prices well below
the market value. In return for this substantial aid, the
Soviets have exacted a price: sovereignty.
It is sad, but true. After 30 years of brutal warfare
against foreigners, Vietnam is once again an occupied
land. First came the French, then the Japanese, then
the French again, then the Americans, and now the
Russians. In addition to the 10,000 “advisors,” the
Soviets operate military bases at Cam Ranh Bay and
Da Nang. Last year, Soviet Marines conducted lan-
dings on Vietnamese soil.
The resentment of Soviet domination is so ram-
pant, that Russian tourists are not allowed to travel
beyond the limits of Saigon. Physical assault is a real
possibility for a lone Russian traveller in the South.
Westerners who have travelled in the South in-
variably report being surrounded by lignant Viet-
namese shouting “Xien Lo! Xien Lol.
The popular dislike of the Soviets notwithstanding,
Vietnam remains slavishly responsive to Sovi
wishes. It can always be expected to vote the Soviets’
way in the UN, It even aids the Soviets in
Afghanistan, Central America, and in the building of
the Siberian gas pipeline. Vietnam is, in fact, held
hostage by its own addiction to Soviet aid.
Where's the Peace?
War in Indochina is kind of like a game of
Monopoly: it doesn’t end until everyone is too tired
to go on. Unfortunately for the people of Indochina,
Hanoi never seems to tire, and (as Americans well
know) hates to lose
Today Vietnam's foreign policy centers on three
different wars in which it is currently engaged.
Henceforth, a look at this policy which seems intent
‘on denying peace a chance.
Of Vietnam's three wars, the most obscure and
unreported is going on in neighboring Laos.
Although this nation fell to pro-Hanoi_ communist
forces in 1975, a stubborn tribe of Loatians, known as
the Hmong, refuse to be brought to heel. The Hmong
first fought for the CIA in the late 1960's in the so-
called Secret War. Tenacious fighters, they proved
useful to the US during the war. When the US pulled
out, however, the Hmong got a slap on the back and
a “Good Luck” from Uncle Sam.
Now in 1985, the Hmong endure devastating at-
tacks by 40,000 Vietnamese occupation troops.
Many are forced to flee across the Mekong River,
where they languish in refugee camps. Those who re-
main in Laos face aerial bombardment, indiscriminate
killings perpetrated by the Vietnamese, and
something even more odious: yellow rain
Reports began filtering out in the late 1970's.
Hmong refugees told of colored clouds of gases
descending on their villages. Then, they said, people
began “to jerk like fish out of water,” Blood poured
from their eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. After horrible
seizures, and violent convulsions, the victims died.
Yellow rain. Dropped from planes such as the
MiG-21 and the L-119, it has wrought death and
devastation on a proud people who have fought
alone against the odds, and who continue to bedevil
the Vietnamese.
War number two involves a somewhat more
capable foe: China. It is a result of the sheer stupidity
of the Politburo that the most populous nation in the
world and a loyal ally should be turned into a bitter
enemy. But such is the case. Today the two nations,
‘once united against the US and the ARVN are locked
in a war of attrition, The reasons for this are many: a
longstanding border dispute, Vietnam's cozying up to
the USSR, and China's improved relations with the
US. But the last straw was Vietnam's invasion of
Cambodia in 1979. Shortly after this, China poured
troops into northern Vietnam.
It was a bloody fight with casualties on both sides
running into the tens of thousands (in just over a
month of combat). China then withdrew, having
achieved its goal of “teaching Vietnam a lesson.”
Sporadic clashes, artillery exchanges, spontaneous
firefights, and the constant threat of a “second lesson”
by China, forces Vietnam to keep its northern pro-
vinces permanently mobilized, further draining the
already strapped economy. The Vietnamese people,
of course, are not told of this, They hear only
mindless bleating over Radio Hanoi about the “heroic
and glorious struggle against Chinese imperialist ag-
gression.” Glorious, pethaps, for the old men living
comfortably in Hanoi. For the people of Vietnam,
however, the war with China is nothing to cheer
about,

not openly hostile, take drugs or desert to escape
thankless duty in a foreign land, American Gl's in
Vietnam? No. They are Vietnamese troops in Kam-
puchea (Cambodia) in 1985, I will not indulge in
relishing the delicious irony of the Vietnamese
predicament. It is manifest. What should be noted
however, is the background of Vietnam's third and
costliest war, the focus of its foreign policy:
Cambodia.
It reads like a soap opera, Sihanouk rules Cam:
bodia, Khmer Rouge try to overthrow Sihanouk, Lon
Nol topples Sihanouk, Sihanouk joins the Khmer
Rouge to oust Lon Nol. Lon Nol is ousted. Khmer
Rouge turn on Sihanouk, kill his children (and two.
million other Cambodians), Vietnam ousts Khmer
Rouge. Khmer Rouge rejoin with Sihanouk and with
3on San (who has fought both Sihanouk and the
Khmer Rouge) to fight Vietnam, Such is the maze of
Cambodian politics. It is into this mess that Vietnam
has thrown 180,000 troops, armed and supplied by
the USSR. The costs have been devastating, Vietnam
is isolated from its pro-Western neighbors. It was
dealt a stunning setback in the UN, which refused to
recognize the new Vietnamese-backed government,
It has provoked China which supported the ousted
government. And, worst of all, Vietnam has been
bogged down for six years in a guerrilla war.
The benefits of the Cambodian invasion? Vietnam
achieved Ho Chi Minh‘s dream of a Hanoi controlled
Indochina. It has taken full advantage of Cambodia’s
resources, shipping in hundreds of thousands of Viet-
namese to colonize the wealthiest areas, But best of
all, Vietnam can now hide its earlier, morally inex-
cusable support of the Khmer Rouge.
The Khmer Rouge were insane. There is no other
explanation for what happened. Following well-laid
plans, these truculant “revolutionaries” went about
slaughtering their own people. Two million, yes, two
million Cambodians were murdered by these so-
called liberators. Their inhumanity reached such dep-
ths, that by the late 1970's, even George McGovern
called for their armed overthrow — which is exactly
what the Vietnamese did. Using Khmer Rouge at
tacks on the Vietnamese border as a pretext, the Viet-
namese quickly ousted their former allies, claiming
that they only came to prevent further Khmer Rouge
genocide,
No doubt, Of course, Hanoi never could explain
why it blocked food aid to Cambodia, causing the
deaths of 700,000 people. Or why the new regime
consists of ex-Khnver Rouges, Or why its troops lobb-
ed grenades at innocent civilians (as at OQ Smach in
198.3), Or why Cambodians are thrown off their own
land so that Vietnamese can move in.
The Cambodians, it seems, now have their giai
phony
Having endured intense hardship over 40 years,
Hanoi will not likely yield in the face of today’s
hallenges. The war in Cambodia, the indolence of
he South, the humiliating dependence on the USSR;
all of these take their toll, But if the old men in Hanoi
have learned one thing, it is that they can get what
they want if they wait long enough, And that is just
what they will do — wait, inured to the sufferings of
their neighbors and their people, “Nothing is more
precious,” said Ho Chi Minh, “than independence
and freedom.”
For the people of Vietnam, giai phong has provid:

~ Will you remember Husker Du? They
came from a state in the midwest — Min:
nesota, They are a husky, spunky lot with
this rather grandiose idea of changing the
face of American music...
Minneapolis, “a lame gray town known
for its sound,” a land of lakes, Prince, and
the Prairie Home companion — home to
three purposeful individuals who fly under
the banner of the Swedish children’s board
game Husker Du. Sometime in 1979 Grant
Hart, Bob Mould, and Greg Norton decid-
ed that snails and puppy dog tails weren't
quite enough and sugar and spice didn’t cut
it either, so they saddled up the evil dragon
of rock-n-roll and began traveling on a Sin-
bodic journey of distortion.
Propelled by ‘the movie-exploding-
automobile-factory-inchead guitar of Bob
Mould, they churned out three above
average hardcore releases on the
Minutemen’s New Alliance label and
developed a cult following in much the
same way that cult followings often
develop, The brutal simplicity of hardcore
lured them. into the-musicalrarena but-its
stifling conservatism soon became a
restraining ‘factor, The Huskers, realizing
something was going awry in the dogma of
open-mindedness, decided to forge their
metal on a different anvil.
Hardcore, the bastard son of punk rock,
began as a reaction against its casts impen-
ding commercialization. It renewed the do-
it-yourself canon of early punk and
catapulted tempo and emotion to an un-
seen level. Possessing, at its inception, an
unusual amount of honesty, its function as
a medium is to offend (its detractors) and
unite (its supporters). It was certainly an
essential and very needed kick in the ass to
the complacency and conformity of the
collective music business, Unfortunately, it
soon fell victim to its own excesses; its
brazen authority and rebelliousness caused
many to fuse fashion and fire into a com-
plete, coherent lifestyle (not unheard of in
the rock community) — that all too soon
stratified into imitatingly predictable peo-
ple listening to imitatingly predictable
bands playing imitatingly predictable
music (also not unheard of in the rock
community).
Husker Du applied its hammer to the
heat and rebelled against the revolution. A

Du you remember?
change was evident soon after they joined
Black Flay's innovative SST record label.
The songs were becoming more varied and
textured while new subjects flowered in
gems such as “Diane” (from their first SST
release Metal Circus). Also the emphasis
oon playing at the speed of light was celiev-
ed, allowing breathing space for future
subtleties. The Huskers decided to redefine
the original honesty and freedom of hard:
core — to boldly go where no band had
gone before — to destroy all preconcep-
tions and return to innocence. Therefore
what came next was unexpected.
“Bight Miles High” is a glorious, horrify-
ingeffort thal exists separately and distine.
ly on its own; itis a record that lives extant
told me that Deadheads didn’t like the
Clash because they were to intense for
drugs. Husker Du can occasionally become
too intense for reality. If you doubt check
out the convicions of “TI Never Forge
You.”) The band mines an incredible emo:
tional mine throuyhout Zen Arcade, Grant
Hart and Bob Mould, the two songwriters,
challenged themselves and succeeded
from the acoustic heartbreak of “Never
Talking, to you Again’ to the androgyny of
“Pink Turns to Blue” and the angsteridden,
above mentioned, "Ill Never Forget You.
With Zen Arcade the Huskers brake
any hardcore self-imposed rules. A con-
pt album featuring popular and dated
elements that bridged the gap between
hardcore and the uninitiated audience was
of its producers and perceivers. Husker Du
defined the eighties by destroying a song
that defined the sixties. A brilliant exercise
in the genuine cathartic capability. of
music, it transcends in a fashion unheard
since Daltcey’s roar of rage athe climax of
“Won't get-fooled again,” Mould’s crackl-
ing intensity soars; his eloquent, tortured
screaming» makes gore movie briwlers
sound like cats faking orgasms — badly.
The real pain of this song induces a certain
shallowness of breath and prickle of fear.
The churning locamotive rhythm se
of Norton and Hart careens beneath and
around Mould’s lawnmower improvisa-
tions, “Eight Miles High” is experienced
rather than heard.
The single was a preliminary introduc:
tion to the band’s masterwork, Zen Ar
cade, the two record Hejira of a young
man and America. Easily the most impor-
tant double set since London Calling, it
replaced the Clash with Husker Du as the
only band that matters (a friend recently
unheard of, Regardless, the album sold
very well and created an also unheard of
critical furor. It will stand as one of the
most important records of the decade, It
also stands as a fitting introduction to the
subject at hand,
New Day Rising is, for all intensive pur-
poses, Husker Du’s fifth album, It develops
familiar trends and initiates new ones and
while not as wholly embracing as Zen Ar-
cade it succeeds stylistically on broader
levels. A facsination with sixties conven:
tions remains tempered by a greater per
song breath (variations now appear within
a song structure as opposed to the song by
song method of the last album), The most
galvanizing aspect of this record is its en-
croachment on commercial elements and
its incorporation of “rock and roll” cliches,
The title cut kicks off; a tortured varia-
tion of a three word lyric it attempts to
vocally mimic the theme and variation
style of the instrumental “Recu
Dreams” (from Zen Arcade). Appropriate
in its placement it is the first in a series of
experiments. “L Apologize,” one of the
more accessible tracks, features staccato,
jackhammer riffing and layered vocals
The lyrical content typifies the moving on
from often naive hardcore” government
sucks hate my motheril’m gonna kill
myself” politics
Husker Du has become concerned on a
much more personal level. Interpersonal
communications replaces Joy Division
like introspection, This renewed tie with
sisties pscudo-romantic values that remain
relevant is sprinkled throughout the album,

opening riff), The frustration factor also
plays heavily (°59 times the pain’) as it has

The strongest track also challenges the
hardcore mentality, Negativism is cast
aside for four minutes while “Celebrated
Summer” recalls past good times; The joy
of simply hanging out and being free from.

reminiscence, "Do you remember when
the first snowfall felland summer barely

ing to oneself, “I summer 1 winter
at/No one is allowed there.” “Celebrated
Summer" is the closest the Du have come
to commericial potential yet they succeed
even at that precarious level, Acoustic
bridges let the time breathe, but cannot
contain its electric urgency
‘Only one experiment fails, "How to
Skin a Cat" is a lame attempt at sound col-
lage and artful repetition. The deadpan
spoken lines sound like a tired, humorless
recreation of the Circle Jerks’ "Group Sex.”
The effort is there but almost only counts

Braury piano supplants “Books About

rather than blocks of indiscriminate noise...
“Books...” “approaches an almost Beach

Husker Du is now at a crossroads, New
Day Rising will certainly expound their
commercial potential and therefore create
a dilemma that in their case will hopefully
(read probably) be solved by a feeling
rather than an accountant. Improving musi-
cianship and studio knowledge will ob-

Hart's songwriting: on New Day Rising

Chapel House before and after the fire
The basic structure is still intact
Chapel House left gutted by blaze
By John Keenan i)
MANAGING EDITOR
When the Reverend Chris Hoyer turned up the
road leading to Chapel House Sunday, May 26, his
first reaction was ‘Well, it’s still standing.”
On May 26, a fire Swept through the-Chapel
House, consuming the roof and three rooms in the
building, but leaving the basic structure intact, The
Chapel House, which was the last remaining
ture from the: Country:Club,:had stood-on
SUNYA ground since the university's inception,
‘The alarm was turned if by McKownville Fire
Chief Ronald Jones, who noticed smoke rising
from the trees while “walking near campus. ‘It
burned for almost a half hour before anybody call-
ed it in." Jone told reporters.
Members of the Interfaith Collegiate Council
Board, which owns Chapel’ House, could not say if
the structure will be rebui
“It was a’ heartbreak," said Hoyer, the first
Chapel House staff member on the scene. ‘When
you got close, it was really obviously a burned out

Hoyer, who rushed into the still smoldering ruin
to salvage three Torah scrolls, added ‘Inside it was
worse, All the things we'd put together were gone:
we'd invested a lot in that building."
Regarding the Torah rescue, Hoyer said “Any
one of us would have done the same: | tried to think
of things of value to each of us, That's one reason
Chapel House is so important, because we continue
to learn from each other, sensitivity toward each

“We lost all our prayerbooks and bibles,” said
Jay Kellman, member of the Interfaith Collegiate
Council Board, the corporation which runs Chapel
House: ‘‘And-aimost-all-of our office supplies.”
For the present, the Chapel House staff is housed
in B-S4 of the Campus Center, while Kellman is
working out of the JSC-Hille! office. They will oc-
cupy that office until August 23, ‘a week before

Doellefeld explained ‘Neither (Job Service nor

Dutch Quad’s polling place moved to nursing home
By Marc Berman
SPORTS EDITOR
‘Gome November, Dutch Quad residents
will have to change their polling place to
the Daughters of Sarah Nursing Home —
‘a move Student Association(SA) President
Steve Gawley.says is an attempt to “
convenience student voters’
This change’ in location will require
students living on Dutch Quad to travel to
the Washington’ Avenue extension, two
and:one half miles from campus,to cast
their ballots.
The decision to relocate the polling place
was recently handed down to SA by the
Albany Board of Elections.
Last November; Dutch Quad residents,
who are part of the15th Ward, District 7,
voted either at the Thruway House, on
Washington Avenue across the street from

campus, or at St. Margeret Mary’s school
located on Western Avenue three blocks
from the campus entranceway.
“The nursing home isn’t accessible to
students without a car,” said Gawley.
“Even if you want to walk there you can’t
because there's no sidewalks, You can't
walk-on a highway."
‘The shift in location came about because
of the overcrowding at the Thruway House
and St. Margeret Mary's. According to
Nicholas Collucio, the

constituents,
polling places surpassed that maximum,

Colluslo,

‘and he agreed that the districts
wait on line too long.””
“Thad no idea that they (Student
Association) were upset at the edistric-
ting,"” continued Collucio,
why they're upset, it’s about the same

“Two and a half miles and three blocks

Gawley. “Especially when you don’t have
sacar, All we want is a polling place thatis
accessible to the students. Whien you put a
polling place that's not accessible, you are
disenfranchising them.”
Gawley added,""We weren't even cor-
acted when they were making a major
redistricting. 1 think it was a lack 0°
consideration."*
Gawley also pointed out that the
number of voters at the polling places were
inflated due to buffer cards failing to be
pulled out for graduting students,
George Scaringe, Republican Commis-
sioner of the Board of Elections, said he
sees the redistricting as a selback to stu-
dent voting rights,
“It's been viewed for along time by
Albagy Democrats that college students
should vote in their hometown,” ‘Said
Scaringe. ‘So they're not going to make it
convenient for the students to vote her
Gawley also said he feels the redist
ting was done to inconvenience student
voters. ‘I think they did it on purpose,”
said Gawley. ‘Somewhere down the line
they feel students are going to turn on the
city administration, It’s totally ridiculous.
First of all, we don't have the voters to
