Early False Alarms Plague’
Waterbury Dorm Dwellers
by Steve Brackett
During the past three weeks, a
number of early morning fire alarms
have plagued Alumni Quad's Water-
bury Hall residents, according tothe
Hall's Director Jeannie Whiting.
“We have had four alarms in the
past week and a half,” said Whiting.
“They were all set off in stairwells,
hallways, and lounges on the second
Mloor's east section.”
According to Whiting, the alarms
were activated by setting off heat
sensors in the hall, In three instances
alarm boxes were pulled in conjune-
tion with the sensors.
Though one activated sensor was
traced to a second floor room,
Whiting was of the opinion that the
residents in that section of the hall
were not the type of people who
would set off alarms.
“I have no idea who's pulling
them,” said Whiting. “I assume that
its someone from Waterbury, but 1
can’t say for sure.”

At the meeting of the University
Senate last Monday. a number of
student senators expressed concern
at the recent increase of Alumni
Quad false alarms. They suggested
that one possible reason for the rise
could be due to the recent University
Police disclosure that downtown
patrols have been stopped.
Though Whiting disagrees that
there is a link between the false
alarms and the termination of police
patrols, she docs acknowledge that a
great deal of money and manpower
have been wasted in replacing belts
and heat sensors.
Whiting has stated that if the
perpetrators are caught, they would
be prosecuted. Due to the approach
of final exams, therisa growing con-

SUNYA Research Granted Increased Funds
SUNYA has been awarded an increase in research grants this year.
by Florle Shertzer
Research money awarded to
Albany amounted to $6,088,780 an
[increase of 21 per cent over the
previous year, according to Vie
President. for Research Louis
Salkever
According to Salkever, this in
crease is due to the quality of the
faculty who work hard to develop
good proposals.
Grants Coordinator Frank
Lucarelli agreed saying, “The faculty
generates the money. They have sub-
mitted exceptional proposals this
year, and ate therefore able to gather
funds on merit.”
According to Lucarelli, the
natural sciences, the atmospheric
seience department, the Schoo! of
Criminal Justice, and the School of
Social Welfare were the biggest
recipients of funds this year.

According to Whitlock, SUNYA

At the Senate subcommittee's first

Legislative Director Joel Packer
pressed a wish to see students
represented in the corporation, an
increase in TAP aid, theextension of
eligibility to part-time students, and
the elimination of the “green

In Anderson's charge to the sub-
committee, he suggested possible
questions the subcommittee might
want to answer. They included
assessing whether: additional legisla-
tion is necessary; HESC can be

As for the immediate Suture,
Whitlock suid, “We don't anticipate

Crime Declines
by Laurie Geller
For the second consecutive
month, the Department of Public
Safety's. statistics haye shown a
decline in the number of reported
crimes on campus as compared to
1975,
Reported offenses for the month
of November declined six per cent
from November, according to the
statistics compiled by Dept. of
Public Safety Director James
Williams. Total reported crimes for
1976, however, are up 13 per cent as
compared 10 last year,
There were 94 total offenses
reported in November, property
stolen was valued at $6,253. For the
year, there have been 987 total
offenses, with stolen property totall-
ing $78,055.
The most frequent offense com-
mitted, according to the report has
been pelty larceny, followed by
criminal mischief,
For the year, assaults, aggravated

years students have been studying
the city of Tucson's trash. It's a real

and receive grades.
“Le Projet” uses a computer to

Fisher says it is possible to grill a

macaroni in the thermos. and to
make fruit crunches, bread and
casseroles in the hot pot.
To make grilled
sandwiches, Fisher advises students
to wrap the sandwich in foil, set the
iron on “cotton”. and place the iron
on top of the sandwich as if it were a

squeeze the sandwich. For
macaroni, put boiling water and

they have poked through numerous

charts is a volume called Accounting

But the words “new edition” are
enough to bring tears to the eyes of a
student taking introductory courses
like economics or political science.
These courses often require texts
which are revised regularly and that
means that a student cannot buy the
book used and possibly save as much
as fifty percent.
For the publisher, though, the
used book business is a pain in the
ofits. In fact, one of the main
reasons for revisions, according toa
leading college textbook publisher,
is to cut out the used book market

publishers in used books.
Barnes and Noble, which operates
used book franchises, buys books
back at 40 percent of the original
cost and resells them at 60 percent.
The author of the book being resold
receives no royalties as songwriters
do.
The publisher of the college text-
book must also deal with an in-
teresting form of rip-off, that of the
free sample, Periodically, publishers

There is one encouraging move-

Italian Chemical Mishap Echoes as Haunting Reminder
" (CN) On July 10, 1976, in the tittle
town of Seveso just north of Milan,
Italy; a white cloud of smoke spewed
forth from the ICMESA chemical
plant. Contained within that. cloud
were thousands of tiny powdery
erystals of TCDD (2,3,7,8-
tetrachlorodibenzopara-dioxin),
‘When the cloud had cleared, the
villages of Seveso and Meda had
been blanketed with two to three
kilograms of one of the most highly
toxic substances yet known, and the
entire fate of the two towns remained
in limbo.
Nearly five months later, their
future is still precariously uncertain
and will probably remain so for
generations to come. A previously
little know town, the word Seveso
till echos throughout the world as a
hhaunting reminder’ of what can
happen without a proper assessment
of man's activities.
TCDD is an accidental dioxin
contaminant created inthe manufac-
ture of trichlorophenol, which is
used to produce the herbicide, 2,4,5-
trichlorophenol (2,4,5-T) and the
bactericide, hexachlorophene. Only
with great care, can its formation be
prevented.
So when a reactor at the ICMESA
plant became overheated, the

resulting rapid pressure build-up
forced its contents through a safety
discharge valve directly into the at~
mosphere.
For days, residents of the area,
seemed uncertain of the fall-out's im-
pact. Health officials did little to
warn townspeople not to cat
produce from infected gardens. But
when livestock and birds began to
die by the thousands, leaves
shriveled and fell from trees, and
villagers began to develop skin
rashes, chloracne (a severe and per-
sistent disease which can be caused
by exposure to TCDD), and skin
lesions, it became obvious that the
disaster was far more serious.
‘Some 284 acres were fenced off to
avoid further contamination, with
another 506 acres designated as a
“zone of caution.”
Inall but one of the plants produe-
ing trichlorophenol, some serious
accident involving the release of
TCDD has occurred. The first
reported accident occurred in 1949
in a Monsanto Chemical Company
plant in West Virginia.
Unlike the Seveso accident, all of
the other releases were confined
within the plant. But at ICMESA,
for the first time, the release was
spread throughout the countryside.
Little is known about the systemic
toxicity of TCDD. It has been linked
with liver function impairment and
other physiological disturbances. In
addition, cases of depression and
memory. disturbances have been
reported after TCDD exposures.
‘And on test animals, TCDD has
been implicated as a teratogen. So
strong are these findings that 150
women from the Sevaso area
who were in their first three
months of pregnancy during the ex-
plosion have applied for abortions.

Perhaps the most appalling fin-
ding is the fact that little is really
known about the long-term impacts
of TCDD. TCDD is not water solu-
ble. Contamination occurs so readily
that, in previous accidents, all ex-
posed materials were encased in con-
rete vaults and buried beneath the
‘earth or dumped into the oceans,
But what about Seveso? How docs

‘Fieldhouse Follies
by Danie! Gaines:
Let's say you wanted to construct a
building. You knew there were many
possibilities, but you decided that another
building for athletics would be a nice addition
to SUNYA. You call it a fieldhouse,
‘The university has no money for a
fieldhouse. The Student Association has no
money for a fieldhouse, And the University
Auxiliary Services (UAS-food service) has no
money for a fieldhouse, You don’t think you
‘can get a foundation to pay fort. How do you
build it?
You decide that if you were to take $27 each
year, for 20 years, from every SUNYA stu-
dent, you could build it. You find out that the
present student body could probably legally
bind the next twenty classes of students to pay
for your ieldhouse. You gather all the impor-
tant people in the university and convince
them that a fieldhouse would be nice. You in-
clude Vice President of Business and Finance,
Manager of UAS, the officers of Student
Association, and officials from the plant
department, student recreational groups, and
the gymnasium,
You show them beautiful slides, films and
pictures of another college's fieldhouse, They
Jook at the building and imagine it at SUNYA,
They begin to get excited about having a
SUNYA fieldhouse,
When people begin to wonder whether or
not you can have concerts in the fieldhouse,
you invite them to your meetings, convince
them that your fieldhouse would be a nice
place for concerts, and ask them to join the
committee.
After all these important people are on your
fieldhouse committee, you prepare a proposal.
Some of the important people volunteer
publicity money from their budgets. You goto
SA's Central Council, which spends s
tax money and ask that they authori
referendum, and help {und the publicity. You
need the ndum, but before you actually
gotothe Council, you hold aseries of informal
meetings with small numbers of Councit
members so as to indoctrinate them. Let's say
Council gives you the money and authorizes
the referendum
Your referendum proposal requires that a
certain percentage of the student body come
out and vote on it. You prepare to use your
publicity money to educate students on the
subject of the fieldhouse, s0 they, too, can get
excited about it,
Many people on your committee are in
charge of different parts of the campus, Axa
result, several details needed for your
proposal's success are handled conveniently.
Free computer time and lists of students from
the registrar come more easily; so does the
publicity money,
By the time the referendum comes, in the
spring, several students will know about the
idea of the fieldhouse, {tis a glamorous idea.
‘The $27 will not be retroactive, thus it will not
cost the voting students a great deal. Present
Freshmen and Sophomores will be able to use
the,fieldhouse before they graduate, If you're
lucky, the students will vote favorably, in large
numbers. Then you have another problem.
Is there a bank which will finance your pro-
ject? It is a possibility, but you must show
proof that you can raise the money. It will be
difficult to offer the bank collateral; the land is
state land, But you'll work out that problem,
too.
After much work and the aid of many im-
portant people, the university may get a
fieldhouse, Some students will be very happy.
Then you can begin another project, using stu-
dent pockets as your financial base

by Dr. Janet Hood, M.D,
With the University reluctant to assess a fee
of even $1 per student, per semester, to main-
tain Student Health Services which are bas
and to obviate the necessity for multiple sm:
nuisance charges costly to administer, it seems
incredible that they might be willing to com-
mit students for the next 20 years to a man-
datory fee of $13.50 per nester for a field
house!

To the Editor:
Since the “Potsdam Press” article made
front page news in the Dec. 7 issue of ASP,
perhaps you will think more about your own
censorship and discrimination policies. You
print a “welcome of letters” on your editorial
pages, yet have been consistently criminal in
your non-publication of letters from the U.S.
Labor Party, an organization that has typed
and submitted, as required, letters to the
editor, including a refutation to your
slanderous articles on the USLP.

All this despite Rockefeller lackey Kissinger’s
continued attempts of sabotage! The response
of the rest of the world to Carter's vote fraud

When the glacial lake which
covered the City of Albany, drained
into the Atlantic Ocean, it left
behind a thick layer of sand above a
layer of impermeable clay. Winds
blew the sand around, forming large
dunes five to seventy-five feet high,
Fanging from one hundred toa thou-
sand feet long.
Vegetation covered the dunes
Protecting them from high winds,
making them stable. Pitch pines
became the dominant tree species
and scrub oak covered the sand.
‘Over the past few hundred years
the Pine Bush went trom forty
square miles of rolling dune, to less
than four thousand acres of land.
The Pine Bush is another name for
an ecosystem commonly called the
Pine Barrens.
The mayorty of the Pine Hush
presently lies within the City of
Albany and the towns of
Gutlderland and Colonie, Now the
ecosystem is being threatened by
housing proyects, since the Pine Bush

ALBANY STUDENT PRESS
The issue: Security. Guns and other
security issues have become a major topic
of conversation around the campus lately,
and so here we print excerpts of recent
WSUA interviews with two of the key
decision-makers in security issues.
Following are excerpts from a recent WSUA
Straightline show. Host Daniel Gaines spoke 10
Jim Williams, the Director of Public Safety
(University Police),
Blue ve. Brown Uniforms
Gaines: Security uses different kinds of uniforms.
‘What are the differences?
Williams; Officers in the brown uniforms are
police officers; officers in the blue uniforms are
security officers, and do not have police authority.
This past year, Civil Service has changed the
security officer job description, As the lines
become vacant [present officers leave]and the new
people we hire come from a list known as trainees,
and they will automactically become officers after
two years. Part of the program is that they have to
acquire twelve credits per year as a condition of
employment, and then go through a formal
training program.
The police officers are all trained, they receive
the same training as all the surrounding police
departments. As a matter of fact, our training is
with the Colonie Police Department, generally.
Gaines: Are both types of officers allowed tocarry
guns?
Williams: No. They are not. The people in blue
uniforms are not sworn police officers, so they do
not carry fire arms at all. The only time they would
is if they seized a firearm that somebody else is
carrying illegally.
Gaines: They cannot make criminal arrests. They
can make traffic arrests, but we don’t authorize
them to do that on campus, Some campuses in the
SUNY system do, of course. Some campuses in
the SUNY system dress them in brown uniforms.
We wanted to dress them in blue so they'd be
distictive and people would know the difference.
Moving Violations As Crime
Gaines: We all know that getting a parking ticket
on campus is not the same as gettinga ticket on the
streets of Albany. But there is some question in
people's minds as to what the difference is with a
speeding ticket and other moving violations. Can
that go to Albany City Court?
Williams: This year, we're runnig at the rate of
700-750 traffic arrests for the year, and those are
all uniform summonses. They go cither to the
Guilderland, Justice of the Peace Court . . . or
the Albany Traffic Court. Speeding is classified as
a violation, There are various levels of seriousness
of crimes, Violation is the least serious, Disorderly
conduct, speeding, going through a stop sign are
violations. Petty larceny, for example, is a
misdemeanor, which means you get up toa year in
jail. A felony is anything that you can get more
than a year in prison for.
Parking Tickets
Gaines: Can you send someone to court on the
basis of parking tickets given on campus?
Williams:. . No. Very rarely does anybody wind
up in court in this state for parking . . .
Many campuses,. . . have
far less crime rate than
we do. Why, I don’t know.
Maybe the moon?
Gaines: On campus, how are tickets handled?
Williams: We have an appeal board which has
students, faculty and staff as judges.
Gaines: Does the system work?
Williams: Well, we give out alot of tickets, and the
“syitem works to the extent that they don't have a
backlog...
Fine Income *
Gaines: What happens to the income collected in
fines?
Williams: The fines and vehicle registration fees
that are collected are deposited in a state—
authorized account known as an income fund
reimbursable, an IFR ... it stays on this
university, We've been able to build up that fund
on this campus—we've probably collected as
much money on this campus alone as most of the
other campuses in the system put together. One of
the reason s is, on some campuses, rather that give
outa university ticket . . . they will issue the local
city ticket.
Gaines: Who can authorize the spending of the
fund?
Williams: There’s local authorization, The control
is under the Vice President for Finance and
Business . . . that’s who Idirectlyreportto .
Gaines: What happens when the university is
sued?
Williams: A typical example would be, say achild
playing in the big reflecting pool, running around
as they tend to do in the summertime, and falling
and cutting themselves on the sharp concrete
edges. The university will be charged with being
negligent in allowing the child to be there, even
though in most cases, the parents brought the
child there. So they'll charge negligence and sue
for damages. To my knowledge, none of them
have been successful.
Jim Williams, Director of the Department of
Public Safety.
Gaines; What is the university defense in those
cases? I've seen those brass plaques saying that no
wading is allowed in the pool.
Williams: Basically, the university takes
reasonable care to chase people out. We do go
over and tell people not take their kids there.
Obviously, we don't have enough officers to post
someone.
Gaines; When there is an auto accident on
campus, do you send a report to the insurance
companies?
Williams: ‘Yes we do. Normally the drivers
involved come in and give us the names and
addresses of the companies.
Gaines: What is the total budget for the
department?
Williams: If you include everything, wages, fringe
benifits, cost of vehicles, gas, electricity: close to
$950,000 a year. When I came here about six years
ago, we had forty-nine people; now we have forty-
two. It's been reduced,
Crime Statistics
Gaines: How much crime is there on campus?
Williams: Well, we only know what is reported to
us. If this campus is not too different form a
typical middle class community, perhaps one-
fourth of what occurs is reported to us. But we will
have, this year, 110 or 1200 offenses reported to
How does that compare to other

Williams: Most universities are places that may be

called “high crime” areas. In terms not so much of
street crime, but theft in particular. The FBI in the
past four years has been putting in separate tables,
so you can compare universities. Before that,
university crime statistics might be buried in some
local city statistics. That's true of most private
campuses. No one knows, publicly, what the crime
statistics are at Columbia University, for example,
Gaines: How does this school do?
Williams: Compared with other universities:
normal. Many campuses, particularly in the south
and southwest, have far less crime rate than we do.
Why, I don’t know. Maybe the moon?
These officers who are
allowed to carry firearms
are not allowed to carry
them in situations that are
confrontations...
Gaines: What is most of the crime on campus?
Williams: Most of the crime here, and anywhere in
the world is larcenies, Books, wallets, coats.
vehicles, small items, TV's and radios.
Gaines: What item is stolen the most on campus?
Williams: V'd say about seventy per cent of the
property stolen is personal property; the other
thirty per cent is state property. Items from
dormrooms are common. Dormrooms are lclt
unlocked.
Gaines: \s that a common problem?
Williams: \t is a common problem. You can go to
probably any dormatory at any time, and start
trying doors, if you're a thief, for example. And
you'll find one that is unlocked and unattended
and likely to have a camera or a wallet, small |
or calculator
Most people are careful, But if you goin
and out of your room several times a day, and
there are three of four of you, it’s easy for someane
to forget, and that’s the problem.
Gaines: How about car thefts?
Williams: We don't have many student or faculty
cars stolen. Maybe five or six so far this year. We
do recover stolen cars on the campus
Gaines: That come from other places.
Williams: Yes. Easier than hitchiking in some
instances.
Gaines: Do you get reports of stereo systems
stolen from cars?
Williams: Absolutely. CB radios, CB thefts are the
big thing. They've taken over the ten-speed hikes
for awhile. But we did make an arrest as the result
of a stakcout and those have gone down to
nothing. We had, over the weekend of September
18th and 19th, fifteen or twenty CB radios stolen
The next weekend, we were able to develop a
pattern, and guess what type of person was dome

and we were lucky.
Gaines: Who are the people who commit crimes

Williams: In the instances that occured, we judged
it was juveniles who were not very sophisticated
because their pattern would be to break a window

Gaines: How about in general? Are crimes

Williams: Seventy to Eighty per cent of the artes»
that officers make are non-students. Virtually all
of the violent offenses that occur when arrests si
made are done by non-students. Now, if we inlet
from the arrest statistics and put that out to the
total crime picture, you could almost say then that
seventy-eighty per cent of the crime is by non
students
as ree ds

Williams: Rates are always very tricky. On the one
hand, it's easy to, posture, and say we're in the
midst of a crime wave. Reported offenses are up
about twenty per cent over last year: Now,
whether that’s because there are more crooks or
because people are more ready to report is
unclear. The same total number of offenses may
have occured.
Gaines: Does this apply to rape?
Williams: There are two schools of thought on
that. I'm tending to believe that most women who
are victims of sex offenses do not report those
offenses, here or in the outside community for
reasons that are well know; embarrassment, fear
of what they'd have to go through in the
courtroom process. Fortunately, we have the rape
crisis center that our officers work quite well
with . . . it's understandable if a victim doesn't
want to prosecute.
But what they can dois come to us in confidence
and we can seek to develop a description and find
out who the assailant is. . .
Guns
Gaines: A recent issue on campus has been that
officers carrying guns. How long have public
safety officers had guns? What changes have there
been?
Williams: Supervisors, detectives, and the
administrative staff, who total twelve people, have
been authorized to carry firearms on duty for four
years now.
Gaines: Have they ever been used in an arrest?
Williams: They have been. We have armed
robbery, at gun point and knife point, reported to
us on campus.
Gaines: Has that increased? The reporting of it
increased?
Williams: This year, so far, we have about eight of
those instances and that's five hundred per cent
‘over last year, but again, remember, what do they
sun ever been fired, in pursuit or any
William:
No, And we've had a couple of instances
where officers could have fired but they did not.
Gaines: What is the purpose of having guns on
campus?
Williams: For protection of the officer and for
response to the type of offense they have to
Tespond to. Albany police for example, do not
respond to offenses on campus, period. So, when,
for example, an armed robbery is reported to us,
cour officers have to respond. Other campuses will

call outside local police to respond and their
officers do not respond.
Gaines: What was the reasoning to have armed
officers on campus four years ago? Were there
more armed robberies?
Williams: No, when | came here we had unarmed
officers responding to incidents—gunshots—
which quite often turn out to be firecrackets in
fact, but you don't know that when you go
out . . . and to armed robberies, which is simply
and untenable position. The policy of the
university is to not summon outside police
departments on campus.
Gaines; Could you outline the department's
organization?
Williams: There are three broad divisions, the law
enforcement division, the safety division and the
traffic division . . . law enforcement responds to
reports on campus, does follow-up investigations,
is involved with arrests.
The safety division has become increasingly
important over the last few years with the federal
OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Act)
which doesn't, at yet, apply to the university,

after an injury to a citizen, we find ourselves

Traffic Division of course is involved primarily
with registration of vehicles and collection of
parking tickets on campus.
Gaines: Students often wonder to what degree
security officers are “real” police. What is your
relationship to local courts?
‘The uptown campus is roughly two-thirds in the
city of Albany and one-third in the Town of
Guilderland. You'd best descrribe it as: All of
Indian Quad, the phys ed building, part of Dutch
Quad and the Power Plant are all in the Town of
Guilderland. Criminal offenses that occur in those
areas are taken to the Guilderland town court.
Criminal offenses in the city of Albany go to

Crowd Control
Gaines: Do you have crowd-control prepar:

carried firearms had them locked up in the safe at

The following are excerpts from a recent WSUA
‘aightline show with John Hartigan, Acting
Vice President for Business and Finance.
Hartigan is directly responsible for the
Department of Public Safety. The interviewer is
Paul Rosenthal.
Rosenthal: Several officers have demanded that
they be armed with handguns for their own
protection and to facilitate the protection of
students and others. What is your role in deciding
what the situation will be?
Hartigan:We can clarify the present situation:
Currently, about twelve officers, of different title,
are allowed to carry handguns. The proposal
under concern has to do with the motorized
patrols that take place particularly in the evening,
when the people now authorized to carry
handguns are not available because they're not on
duty.
In terms of response, or stopping a suspected
vehicle, the men in the patrol car, without
firearms, are in a perilous situation.
majorconcernright now relates to two cases
within the last two months, in which security
officers stopped vehicles. In one, there were
loaded guns, the other one they stopped and then
were called off the scene, but this particular
vehicle was connected with having shot at oth
cars. In both cases, the people stopped were
ncither students, faculty or staff. Basically, there is
a concern for the life and safety of the patrol
officers, There isa concern that ! have and | know
President Fields has for the safety and security of
the people who live here .
Rosenthal: . . the issue is before the University
Community Council?
Hartigan: Yes, the process provides that
University Community Council reviews,
deliberates, and based on what it hears, make a
recommendation to the University Senate, or a
report. Only the President, and by law only the
President, can make a determination.
I would emphasize that we're not talking about
trying to arm the police force, which includes
roughly forty officers. We're talking about
particular stations and situations, There's all
kinds of safeguards — and I find them kind of
remarkable — in the Board of Trustees guidelines,
which restricts in many cases even the presence of
firearms.
Rosenthal: \s there any provision covering private
security personnel who come on campus, notably
those that bring cash to the Campus Center and
Administration on a regular basis?
Hartigan: | don't believe there's anything to
restrict it.
Rosenthal: One of the major issues that has
confronted you is lighting on campus . . . this
past year there have been instances of rape and
‘attempted rape. What has the progress on that?
Hartigan: | think the progess emanates from
student concern, and someone listened to that
concern. There are problem areas on campus. One
that I believe is important and has been corrected
is the lighting immediately joining the bus stop in
front of the podium and the podium itself. We
installed six lights there. The lights now, of course,
ave on all evening, which was a major concern.
We have looked at some of the other specific
ideas that the students have, and a number of us
took a personal tour on campus a month and a
half ago. For example, the lighting in the Colonial
Quad parking lot across perimeter road; that is a
problem and corrective measures will be taken.
The pathways between the Colonial parking lot
and the quad itself, and also betwee the State lot
and quad deserve some lighting, and we have
estimates on doing something there.
Another concern had to do with the many
pathways that are homemade, the path of least
resistance which is mine as well as the students's,
think there are close to twenty such areas which
were pointed out by students as a concern
requiring additional lighting, It's impossible todo
all of these. But there are at least six in those areas
where there are double trees; and | think they are
pathways that connect the quads and the podium,
We have estimates, and all things being equal, we
expect to install lighting there in the spring.
Should security officers be able to defend
themselves against armed criminals?

Ihe album entitled Rex, by the new group
of the same name, appears to be your everyday
rock'n roll album of the 70's. They even sound
similiar to the new rock bands which have
become successtul ay of late such ay
Aerosmith, Kiss, or I hin Lizzy. They attempt
to emulate the popular formula these bands
noted, yet tail because their in
ature style relleets their law stage of music
developement, this album does not go
anywhere becuse the music 1s repetitions,
simple, and blatantly dull
The lirst side opens with a typical rocker in-
titled, “Hrouble”, Vat 1 what this album is
heading towards, as the group's basic three

sounds similiar to the éne which procetds it,
and unless you listen closely you really can not
tell the difference, Every cut seems to run into
the one which follows, with very little
noticeable variety in the content of each song.
‘There is just not enough music to listen to,
The second side is a little better, but again
the lack of any innovative musicianship on the
album reflects its major flaw. The best cut on
the album entitled, “I Can't Explain,” is not
even their own, but by The Who's Peter
Vownshend. Rex's rendition of this old
favorite is almost passitble. The vocals are
good emulating I he Who's classy harmonies,
nd the guitar work is choppy but powerful,
But, as in other cuts on the album, the group
drags the song out, 1 his song is the high point
‘of the album, because tor once the vocals ure
hot obscured by the background noise that the
group tries to pass off as music, This high
point 1s short lived, as trom here on in the
album returns to the doldrums which have
prevailed throughout
The use af special eltects on the second side
iy un attempt by the group to cover up the lack
of muste that the album contains. On the cut,
“Rock and Roll Dream”, the use of an
applause track mixed onto the end of the song
Wy an attempt by the group to Lulfill their
‘aypirations of achieving some recognition tor
the work they have pul into the album, The
‘rome part of this ty thit the canned appliuse is

receive Lor this album,(und deservedly so),
the album ends on the same note that it
beuiny on, exhibiting its lack of progression, It
i NOL Innovative, and the same basie beat is
constantly reterated throughout the album,
The nonexistant musicianship combined with
the senseless lyrics exemplity the mediocrity of
the band. There 1 no dynamic energy in their
music, which ws charaeteristic of a good rock

comment
Finally, it amazed me that the last
paragraph appeared at all, since it totally con-
tradicted the rest of the article. It was also
totally twisted. | spoke to Joe! Packer, SASU
Legislative Director, and he explained that
although the Board of Regents report was very
biased in areas and will probably not be im-
plemented as written, this does not mean that
the Governor will not cut the budget a little
anyway, nor does it mean that the legislature
will not decide that there should at least be a
slight increase in SUNY’s tuition. Another
point to keep in mind is that SUNY needs 60
million dollars to continue operating at its pre-
sent insufficient level (this is due to cost of liv-
ing increases and interest on debt service
bonds) so even if our budget is not actually
ccut, we will need to make up an additional 60
million which will undoubtedly come from
‘our pockets.
Itis unfortunate that this did not come out
in the article, where it belonged. I would hope
that in the future the author and the ASP will

the problem
with zionism
To the Editor:
Let's set the record straight. In the Nov. 12
ASP, the ad for Isracl Awareness Week
specifically said, “SA funded.” In my concern
for secking the truth, I read this as well as the
fetter from the Jewish Students Coalition
Published several weeks ago. Part of this
“awareness” included denunciations and
even slanders about legitimate Arab
governments~ something which most of us
would say constitutes “political activity.”
Then there is the matter of my “distinct lack
of historical knowledge and insight.” Back in
1971, 1 was arrested with Meir Kahane (and
800 others) for sitting in front of the Russian
Embassy. Despite my staunch Zionist attitude
then, which I was willing to sacrifice my
“freedom” for, | mamtarned enough historical
knowledge, insight, and open-mindedness to
discover there is indeed another side to the
story of Israel. tis unfortunate that most of us

earthlings, angels
and security cops
To the Editor:
Ah yes, the holiday season is here. You
tell this is so because of the many “benevolent
elves who are seeing to it that the Security
Police have a bucket of coal and a switch with
which they can make their rounds alter the
New Year.
Why all the furor? Is it because toy gun sales
are increasing at local department stores dur-
ing Earthling-Ange! week? Or is the problem
rooted in anti-authoritism? Police represent
the authority granted by the state for its
Protection; they need un adequate means of
‘carrying out this essential function. The Un-
iversity is no different from a city; all 10,000
odd of us—plus those who reside in the sur-
rounding areas—don't qualify for Santa's list
of worthy gift-getters. Those opposed 10 this

It has been pointed out that SUNYA is the
only SUNY campus which has armed police,
SUNY at Buffalo was mentioned as one which
was considering this. 1 come from the Buffalo
area, and I know how inept that situation is
since there isa reliance on area police forces. It
takes precious time to respond to the many
calls that are necessitated by those criminals

added headache of patrolling the sizeable
SUNY Buffalo campus,
Put yourself in the place of a cop. You, and
a few others, are responsible for the welfare of
thousands of people on and off campus.
Is there a fear lurking in some people's
minds that SUNYA students will then take up
arms themselves in retaliation? If you want to
be overly pessimistic, you could argue that
they could try to do that now. If you were
cynical, however, you could go on to say that

tower tribune
commits a sin
To the Editor:
The lunetion of a university-wide publica-
hon is to “avoid taking sides.” By neglecting to
publish a erucuall resolution passed at Central
Couneil’s meeting on Nov, 17, the Lower
Tribune is doing the bidding of the ad-
ministration,
Lhe resolution expressed the Council's
collective outrage at the action of the Universt-
ty Community Couneit (a cammuttee of the
University Senate) who denied students the
right to attend the afternoon meeting of Nov
17. At this meeting, the 1ssue ol security ol-
ficers carrying guns on campus was to be dis-
cussed
Ihe Lower Tribune routinely publishes the
bulls and resolutions passed by Central Coun-
cil, We retuse to aecept that their tailure 10
print this particular resolution was merely an
aversight. Evidently, the publishers of the
Lower Lribune do not consider the gun Issue
unportant, or are reluctant to publicize 1 tor
fear of antagonizing the administration.
The Tower Iribune has tallen prey to cen-
sorshup. Many students read the Tower
Tribune. Uhis type of selective filtering does
not constitute journalism, thus damaging this
publication's credibility

The Pressure Is On
In the midst of all the snow, a lone student sits studying. Sometimes he
wants to panic; often he does. He thinks about the optional mid-term;
the late paper; the incomplete grade. It seems there will never be enough
time. ‘
He makes lists. There are four important things that must be finished’
within two:weeks, and three less important ones. Then there are all the’
things that have nothing to do with school, finals or degrees.
He thinks about the coming vacation. He wonders why two weeks
seem like much more.
He wonders if he should care about grades. He wonders if there’s any
reason for all the pressure. He wonders if he is inventing pressure — not
everyone feels it. 5
But he wakes up nervous in the morning, when he gets any sleep. His
stomach is tied in knots.
He ponders asking for an extension — and spends painstaking hours
trying to figure out whether he really needs it. He imagines the
professor's reaction — hundreds of times. Finally he gets the extension.
Now he finds ways to spend his time away from books. He eats out.
He watches Silver Chicken at the Rat, He reads the paper. He thinks
about all the work he has to do.
He is either annoyed with or jealous of his friends, Annoyed at those
who don't seem to care. Those who believe they don't want the things
that grades can buy. Annoyed at those who do only what excites them.
Jealous of those who finished three courses already. Jealous of those
who claim they have no work. Jealous of those who graduated — and
those who dropped out of school and into jobs,
He wonders if he’s really learning anything. Panic is part of an
education, he figures. Is nausea?
Logically, intellectually, honestly, he knows it really doesn't matter all
that much. A course here, a grade there, he'll never remember when he's
30. If he could use this knowledge to relax, he'd do better. He might even
do well. But he cannot.
Instead he worries. He suspects people are out to get him. He fells he’s
falling behind whenever he sees someone studying.
When the marks on his calendar become tomorrow, it seems as if he'll
never make it.
But he bears down, he does what he must do,
He celebrates when it's finished.
Then he goes home, and wonders if he's learned anything. He decides
he has, but certainly, it isn’t what he expected to learn at the State
University of New York at Albany.

SA is composed of approximately 8900
students, each of whom pays thirty-three
dollars a semester. This money is commonly
called a mandatory student tax.
For the year ended June 30, 1976, Student
Association collected $907,269. According to
any reasonable definition of a government,
SA was obligated to spend this money to serve
those 8900 students.
Did they?
‘The information to answer that question is
fot presently available. What is known is that
the total expenditures by student
organizations for the year cited above was
$887,990.
‘Who spends this money?
Operations of SA are for the most part in-
itiated by Central Council. Couneil is com-
posed of thirty-one students, onc for every 350
undergraduates. In most cases, it takes less
than 100 votes for one council memberto gain
a seat. With the constant turnover of student
representatives, and with the inexperience that
most SA officials have, itis very difficult for
SA to keep track of the groups’ financial
dealings. Working with the skills and advice of
professional accountants, SA could set up a
solid enough financial system to offset the lack
of long-term personnel and the resulting inex-
perience. Students would benefit if financial
waste was discovered, which Marc Benecke
has shown is, at the least, possible.
In the past several years, Student Associa-

tion has had financial statements prepared by
a large accounting firm. Each year the firm
reprints figures already known to SA in a fan-
cy folder, They state at the beginning of their
report
“The accompanying balance sheets of the
several funds of Student Association. . . and
related statements of changes in fund balances
and student organization funds revenues and
expenditures for the year then ended were not
audited by us and we express no opinion on
them." {emphasis is mine}.
The firm's report has not been made public.
Even if this information was made public, SA
still would not know where the $907,269 went.
Is this government meeting its fiduciary
esponsibility to its citizenry?
Opponents of a “business-style” SA say an
audit of SA is not necessary; SA is too small,
aan audit costs too much, and no one really
cares.
Each student has a right to receive a portion
of their tax in services, But there is no way for
students to know if they are receiving a fair
return on their tax money, if the money is not
fully accounted for. Therefore, each student
has the right, and SA has the obligation, toac-
count for every penny spent, and to open its
books to anyone who shows cause, including
independent auditor,
Are SA tax monies spent responsibly?
Does SA need $66 per year from each stu-
dent to provide the services it presently does?
Does the present accounting system prevent
theft?
Ac audit would answer these
questions, and provide useful information, Is
there going to be one!
‘Thoughts On A Pyr
Of Beer Cans
by Bob Cinque
‘There it lay, shattered beyond all recogni-
tion, Its member parts recalling weekends
spent emptying its parts, the former majesty
now humbly vegetating on the floor; it mark-
ed the end of my beer-can period. Three hun-
dred of them, which I had come to know quite
well (almost by sight) in the month-and-a-half
that they graced my window.
Don is clearing the debris now, muttering
about taking his Bud cans (ninety-four of
them) and building his own pyramid, He could
do a good job of it, but that is not in the spirit
of the pyramid game. All superior pyramiding
isa group effort, and I'l never forget the effort
‘our suite put forth to fill our window with
these tributes to American ecology. I'll also
not forget the beginning when it hardly stood
four-high, and had a point of a single can of
Coors,
The Coors can is well-suited tosucha role as
topping off a pyramid; its long slender profile
gives the entire structure a sense of
skywardness, an uplifting, It is not as long as
the Tall Boy, but longer than the average can,
and here the troubles began.
‘As a small pyramid, the structure claimed
an amalgam of components, beers ofall kinds,
‘cans of all sizes, And why not? Ten or twenty
cuns could be casily rearranged to accom-
modate a new addition, and a growing
pyramid will quickly commandeer all the
nutrition it can get.
We fed it well and it grew quickly; Buds,
Millers, Coors, Tall Boys of various brands,
Maximus Supers, Rolling Rock, even Pabsts.
It put on weight at an encouraging rate. There
were times when it could not ingest another
can for fear of exploding itself, and it left them
on its night-table, We were feeding it more,
but we were not feeding it better. Shortened
Pabst cans were’finding their way into the
pyramid, and the resulting imbalatice took its
toll. Barely perceptible at first, the strapping.
young pyramid soon developed a lilt to the
left. It fell more often; each time it was alittle
harder for it to remount its pedestal.
Specialists were called in, They blamed poor
digestion. “Give it more time to settle itself
after you feed it cans,” they said inchorus, We
did, We placed the cans carefully, not rushing
it at all, but it was no good. Major surgery was
necessary—no matter what the specialists
Partly due to my bedside manner, partly
due to my steady hands, but mostly because no
one else wanted to do it, | was chosen to per-
form the operation,
I worked carefully and slowly, realizing that
‘one false move could leave me covered with
pull-tabs, | realigned every row, taking great
pains to keep same-size cans in the same rows;
Buds among Buds, Coors among Coors, Tall
Boys among themselves, All went well until
the last row, where three sixes competed for
the same space, “It's only the top row,” I told
myself, “It's not serious,”
The surgery did a lot of good, but the lilt had
not been climinated completely. “It will %
Thoped. And it could have, but for the Christ«
mas lights, which dangled perilously close to
the top row.
“Move it,” 1 told my suitemate, “or we'll
have a big crash.”
He moved it. We had a big crash anyway.
| wonder now if | could have saved it. If 1
had only caught those first two cans and put
them back quickly! If | had only been a better
surgeon! oh, well... to second-guess is
useless, Don has withdrawn his cans, and it
can never again be what it was. Thank you,
Don, for putting it out of our misery.

‘The Albany State varsity basket-
ball team puthed its record to 3.0
Wednesday night by downing
Binghamton, 58-49, at the Colonial
home court, An error filled second
half saw the Danes survive a five
minute scoring drought and a two-
shot technical foul on their way to
their first victory on the road this
ar
During the game's
minutes, Binghamton st
proved Albany coach Dick Sauers'
characterization of him as “the best
guard we've yet to face." The 5°10"
Hull repeatedly drove to the basket
of passed to an open teammate to
help Binghamton to an early lend,
‘A breakaway basket by forward
Kevin Keane, however, gave Albany
a 20-18 edge, and the Danes did not
fall behind again,
‘A few minutes later, forward Vic
Cesare and guard Winston Royal hit
‘on consecutive baskets, and after
Hull missed a forced shot from out-
side the key, center Barry
Cavanaugh connected on a ten-
footer for a 30-22 margin. Later,
when Binghamton climbed to within
two, Cavanaugh again came
through, this time with a three-point
play to make it 33-26,
Albany successfully stalled for the
last shot before intermission, as
guard Mike Suprunowice spun
down the lane with seconds remain-
ing to hit ashort jumper, The Danes
went into the lockerroom ahead 38-
0.
Albany’s halftime lead was largely
due to its superior shooting from the
floor: 56 percent to 46 percent for
Binghamton, The Danes were also
doing a good job of containing their
opponents’ dangerous fast break.
Cagers W
Hull and sharpshooter forward
Astley McLaughlin were carrying
the Binghamton offensive burden,
scoring nine and 11, respectively,
‘As in the first period, Albany
started off the second half sluggishly.
‘A Suprunowicz bucket accounted
for Albany's lone two points in the
first 5:38 of action, Fortunately for
the Danes, Binghamton was not ex-
actly on a rampage, netting but four
points during the same time period.
‘Two foul shots by Hull placed the
Cotonials within four, 40-36, with
14:00 remaining, But forward Staton
Winston's basket off a nifty looping
pass from Winston Royal and a
Cavanaugh two-pointer gave the
Danes breathing room, A Winston-
to-Keane aeriai resulted in Albany's
biggest cushion of the night, 51-41,
with a litle over eight minutes to go.
Playing with patient deliberation
against the Binghamton zone, the
Hull then missed on a forced,
overlong jumper, while
Suprunowicz was off on a four
footer. And on and on.
‘When the dust had cleared, the
Danes found they would have to
serap to win. When Binghamton
center Ken Levy converted a foul
shot, the score was 51-47 with 3:02
left, Cavanaugh then cooled things
off a little by sinking twofout shots.
‘A controversial call followed a
missed lay-up by Suprunowicz. The
Danes,” whether out of plain
frustration or a belief that
Suprunowicz had been fouled, ex-
ploded in rage. The officials
responded by slapping a two-shot
technical foul on the Albany bench.
Rich Rochon, Binghamton’s fine
guard, hit both and Binghamton got
the ball back on a travelling viola-
tion.
It was now 53-49, Binghamton's
Danes were again outshooting their
rivals.
‘Then came the great scoring lapse.
Albany did not put a single point on
the board for a full five minutes, but
Binghamton, not one to unduly em-
barass an opponent, could tally but
six.
Meanwhile, the comedy of errors
had begun, Keane was hacked un-
derneath to put Binghamton ‘over
the limit, but the Albany junior miss-
ed both foul shots. The Colonials
were called for a three-second viola-
tion, but Winston blew a lay-up.
‘Then after Hull sank two foul shots
and Cavanaugh made a great block
of a close-in shot, Binghamton
travelled. Albany then lost the ball
out-of-bounds. Cesare made a
succeeding steal but then Royal
failed on a lay-up, and the ball was
ruled out off Albany. Binghamton's
ball, less than two minutes to go,
Binghamton came down court
and put it up. Colonial forward
Larry Madiefsky grabbed the
rebound, but ran into Kevin Keane,
who came up with the play of the
game. Keane unceremoniously
ripped the ball out of Madiefsky's
hands while the Danes proceeded to
ie the clock.
‘Amazingly, 53 seconds passed
while Binghamton neither got the
ball back nor pressed Albany
very hard, When Royal was finally
hacked with under 30 seconds
remaining, the game was all but
over. Royal sunk both fouls and
Albany had its third straight victory.
The spread of individual point
totals for Albany was very unusual.
Only two points separated the star-
ting five: Cavanaugh and Winston,
11 points; Cesare and Suprunowicz,
Daenettes’ Tracy Sugihara (22) drives on Oswego's Mary Ann Shumaka in Albany's opening gam:
Sugihera's shot was good although Albany lost. Dannettes rebounded after that game to defeat St.

Women Cagers Split First Two
by Don Rossi
Over the past week the Albany
State Women's basketball team
knotted their seasonal record at 1-1,
losing to powerful Oswego State 74-
38 while whipping the College of St,
Rove by a score of 59-41.
‘Oswego, the opening game oppo-
nent, proved to be very powerful, a
the score aptly indicated, Oswego
hhad a very balanced scoring attack,
with four of the five starters in dou-
ble figures, Mary Ann Shumaka of
‘Oawego led all scorers with 16 points
and also hauled down nine
rebounds, another game high.
For Albany, Mary Ann Crotty
and Tracy Sugihara were the top
scorers for Coach Karen Cun
ningham’s crew with 12 points cach,
Co-captsins Mary Ellen Foley
(seven) and Nancy Bartle (five) also
contributed to the Danette total,
Cunningham explained that the
team played a solid offensive game,
but was unable to get back on
defense quickly enough, which
enabled Oswego to use their fast
break effectively.
“But,” Cunningham said, “we are
a very young team with a handful of
freshmen and transfers, and only
wo seniors, (Bartle and Foley), It
will take a while for us to get
together, but the nucleus is difinitely
there,"
‘The College of Saint Rose was a
different story for Cunningham's
Danettes as they registered an easy
59-41 triumph at the St, Rose Gym-
nasium on Tuesday. Coach Cun-
ningham had only praise for her
team, as they hauled down 33
rebounds with Ellen Daly and Mary
Ellen Foley grabbing 10 apiece.
Super-soph Crotty pumped in 21
points, to go along with her five
rebounds and six assists, Crotty is
now leading the team in scoring with
a 16.5 scoring average, with
Sugihara a close second at 13 points
per game. Tracy picked up 14 points .
against St, Rose und also added
seven assists.
Cunningham felt that St, Rose
was a pivotal game because
“hopefully it will instill a winning
spirit that will carry through the
season. The team now knows that
they have the potential, and hopeful-
ly the demands of a rough academic
schedule will not wear the girls
down.”

Hull was Binghamton's top point-
getter with 19. Cavanaugh pulled 12
off the boards for the Danes, and
Cesare led in assists with four.
Overall, Albany outshot Bingham-
ton 45 percent to 36 percent.
“We had chances to break the
game wide open,” complained
Coach Sauers. What Sauers said was
(cue, but then again Binghamton
blew its chances to win the game.
And although the play of both teams
was plagued with many mistakes,
Sauers took consolation in the fact
that his team did win its first away
game despite the continued absence
from the line up of injured hoopsters

Grapplers Bow To Cortland
by Eddie Emerson
The Albany State wrestling team
dropped its third match of the season
toa young, tough Cortland team, 39-
12, Wednesday night at the Universi-
ty Gym.
Al y's head coach, Joe Garcia,
knew the Danes would have their
hands full against Cortland.
“Cortland has always been t
the conference and they ha
standing coach, Vince Gonino.”
‘Albany's Paul Gemmiti and Cor-
tland’s Bob Eddy wrestled in the
opening match at the 112 weight
class, Eddy dominated the first two
periods and was leading 11-3 when
Gemmiti was forced to default with a
leg injury
The next pair to wrestle was Mark
Dailey of Albany and Cortland's
Wade Cummings. The match was
even through the first two periods,
but Cummings was too strong for
Dailey in the final period and won
15-7,
The match at 134 provided the
closest and most exciting battle of
the night. Albany's Howie Berger, a
freshman, was up against Pete
Rossie, who finished second in the
State University of New York
Athletic Conference Championships
last year,
Berger dominated the first period
and led 4-2. In the second period
Rotsie evened the score up at four-
all and that’s how the match ended,
However, Rossic was awarded the
victory because he had one point ex-
tra for riding time.
The Danes were now trailing 13-0
in the match. The next wrestler for
Albany was co-captain Vie Gagliar-
di, He pinned his opponent Joe Pen-
nacchic at 7:41 to close Cortland’s
lead to 13-6. It was Gagliardi’s
fourth win of the
The fifth match featured the
Danes’ other co-captain Pete
Palkovie und Cortland’s Chris
Courne. Paikovic, like Gagliardi,
was going for his fourth victory but
Bourne out-wrestled him and he lost
the match 11-4
‘The Danes lost their next four
matches. At 158, Mike Williamson
lost to Rich Armstrong 20-4. At 167,
Cortland’s Scott Agar pinned Jeff
Aronowitz at 5:30, Albany forfeited
the match at 177, then Cortland’s
Bob Menz pinned Chris Covas at
4:35 to give them a 39-6 udvantage
The final match of the night was
between the heavyweights, Tom
Cleary and Cortland's Walt Kieda.
Cleary won his third match of the
season on a pin at 3:45 (0 give the
Danes their last six points.
After the match, Coach Garcia
discussed his squad, “We're a young
team but we have a lot of talent. It's
going to bea question of time, Aswe
gain experience, we will put it
together.
“A problem the team faces this
year is that there aren't enough
wrestlers on the team to provide
‘competition during the practice."
Garcia attributes this mostly to
sstudent apathy. "There is plenty of

College Yells
May 7, 1918
You may judge a college by the
tone, the number and the variety of
its yells. A college yell is an
_,eVerlasting toast to that of which we
hear so much — college spirit: No
other means of expressing loyalty is
more simple; no other so effective.
The student who always knows the
college yells, and always returns
hoarse from athletic games, is the
one who is well liked by both faculty
eadtmmdent body. He is the one who
is alive, who lives, not because he
chanced to be born, but because he
loves life and its interests,
In our college the majority of
rivalry garties seem to be interclass.
Picture a basketball game where itis
a half minute till time is up for the se~
cond half. The referee tosses the ball.
ands 8-7 in favor of the
upper classmen. Yonder dishevelled
Freshman is gritting his teeth and
makifg an iron resolve to throw a
field basket. The game begins with a
rush, His teeth still are set; his heart
leaps as he catches the glorious prey
in his arms. For a bare instant he
hhugs it to him, so glad is heto possess
it, so sure of success. He bounces it
‘once, twice, three times, and pauses
before the basket, He slips under his
‘guard and with a bound throws the
ball. Just as the crowd sees it fall
gracefully through the net the
timekeeper's whistle announces that
the game is over.
‘There are two classes of people in
that hall and they are divided by a
line of demarcation more distinct
than any human power could draw. |
heard a lecturer last week say that
there is no class of people divided so
distinctly as a class in geometry. This
class, he said, is divided into two
clean-cut parts — those who see and
those who do not see, In my mind, it
is much the same at an athletic game.
‘There are those who see, and cheer;
and those who do not sce, and do not
cheer. The non-cheerers attend the
‘game for some unknown reason, and
do not see, do not understand, the
spirit of the game,
But the cheerers — they of the
happy hearts and valiant lungs, who
dare and love to exhaust their voices
in lauding skill, whether of their
fellows or rivals —- let us speak of
these, They are the flower of the
college; they are the alumni-to-be
who will return toalma mater in love
and reverence long after the non-
cheerers have forgotten they were
college-bred. ‘The cheerers are they
who later will make their names felt
and known in their native spheres,
‘They are the ones who, as they were
loyal to their college, will also be to
their country. Blessed are the
cheetes, for they shall be cheered,
College yells ure for the students,
and of the students, therefore let
them be by the students.
Student Council
April 18, 1917
At the general meeting of all
students gathered in student
assembly last Friday morning, the
first student council in ths history of
State College was called into being,
For months a faculty committee had
the plan under consideration and the
action taken on Friday last was the
result of their labor,
Student Assembly
Suggestions for Class Rivalry
made by Representatives
from Each Class
February 20, 1918
‘Student Assembly on Friday,
February 45th, ‘was in charge: of
‘Myskania. After the singing of Alma
Mater, Mr. Joseph Walder made
several timely announcements; The
remainder of the meeting was oc-
cupied by speeches from represen-
tatives of each of the various classes,
in which suggestions were made con-
cerning the working out of class
spirit and rivalry in college. Student
Council will consider these and will
soon present a scheme of action.
Mary Grahn, ‘21, was the first
speaker, and cleverly presented the
views of the Freshman ass. Accor-
ding to Miss Grahn, college is the
one place where we may properly in-
dulge in class prejudice, The
Freshmen, too, will welcome class
rivalry, since it makes them feel they
college rather than a
“teacher factory." Frosh Bibles, flag
rushes, Frosh caps, and push ball
contests were spoken of.
Lawrence McMahon, '20 gave a
lively talk on Sophomore views of
the matter. Rigid rules for Freshmen
are in order — instance, Freshmen
shall wear no jewelry connected with
High School
Marth Stewart, "19, promised the
hearty cooperation of the Juniors,
Walking
Undertlassmen should give up their
‘seats to’ upperclassmen and carry
their books. Freshman election
‘might be secret. The order of seating
in chapel might be arranged to
suggest order of classes. Freshman
sandwich men could announce to
Sophomores important class
notices.
Merrill Sauerbrei, ‘18, described
various traditional scraps at Union,
Martin Barry, "21, advocated a
Freshman Bible, and suggested class
debates as a stimulant to rivalry.
Elizabeth Gardner, '20, suggested
buttons as a means of identifying
Freshmai
Alfred Miller, "19, said that pipes
and mustaches should be tabooed
among underclassmen. Seniors
should wear caps and gowns du
the second semester at colleg
faculty members when appearing in
chapel would lend anair of dignity to
the occasion’ by wearing their caps
gowns and hoods.

Other excellent’ remarks were
made, the trend of which was
generally toward the construction ot

Lunches
February 20, 1918
Probably many readers of the
“News” will be interested to know
that a new and important dogma has
been set forth in the school of
medicine, and that this new dogima is
the product of our own Alma Mater.
One of our alumni, now a student of
medicine, has discovered a sure
remedy for indigestion: People
should stand when eating, To stand
for all three meals of the day is the
ideal of preventativecure. Our world
of busy, overworked men, habitually
careless about health, could hardly
be expected to live up to such an
ideal. In view of this fact, a group of
medical men have decided that, if a
man stands wile he eats one of his
three daily meals, he is reasonably
safe from indigestion, How casy it is
for State College students to protect
themselves from the ri
disease, since there are
where they can sit down to e
anyway. Let e
keep away from the empty benches
in the lower hall of the Science
Building, and to walk slowly up and
down the corridor while cating
lunch, Some people already follow
this line of procedure, but most of
our students are always grumbling
about no place to sit down to eal
Junch, not even seats in the lower
hall, Dr. Quak, visiting physician at
the new Flexner School, hits dis:
covered that grumbling itself in-
variably produces indigestion. Let's
stand when we eat our lunches and
be good natured about it

Suffrage Heard
March 14, 1917
Miss Louise Grant, who spoke on
the Women Suffrage movement
before the College Club last Friday
afternoon, called attention to the
les the movement had
made in the western part of the Un-
ion and, in fact, all over the United
States and Canada, Of late Canada,
she suid, has largely granted suffrage
tothe women, and anti-suffrage sen-
timent has practically disappeared
there, The speaker said that in the
readjustment coming after the war
the influencs of woman would be
needed, Some readjustment in this
country will be necessary in order
that we come upto the new ideals of
a new Europe,
Miss Grant pleaded for u more ef-
ficient and centralized campaign in
the conservative castern states. The
women of California succeeded, she
said, through the influence of the
college women and the Civic League
‘The speaker said we live ina tremen-
dous age and do not understand it

whereby all other things may be ob-

Student Tax 13 Dollars
October 5, 1928
‘The student tax this year will jump
from eleven to thirteen dollars per
ae if the proposed student
ion budget is adopted, the
ee board of finance announced
today.
The proposed budget calls for an
outlay of ngarly $2,000 more than
that expended last year, the board
declared.
‘The Dramatic and Art Association
demands an increase of $200. It was
last year granted an additional $150
above the appropriation for the
preceding year.
Men's basketball has requested an
additional $200; men’s baseball an
additional $150; and Myskania re-
quests an additional $97 over its last
year's allowance.
Minor sports ask for an additional
$100. This will make the total outlay
for athletics $3,200, if demands are
Approved in assemblies today.
Two new items, which will in-
‘crease the budget nearly $1000, will
be presented. These are the State
Lion and membership in the
National Student Federation
association.
Requests of the Lion for support
from the student association were
granted in assemblies last Friday.
Emanuel Green, *30, who
represented State College at the
national college meeting in Lincoln,
Nebraska, last year was instrumental
in securing student support for this
project last spring.
The infirmary fund will ask for an
additional $200, which will bringthe
total to the amount
decreased last year.
Nearly forty dollars additional
will be needed to pay for extras
printed in the freshman handbook
this year. It will need $432.26 to meet
the expenses incurred by the editors.
‘The handbook last year was granted
$393.13.
Professor Clarence A. Hidley,
faculty treasurer of the student
board of finance, strongly
recommends to the student associa-
tion that the surplus of $807.04
remaining from last year should be
kept in reserve and not used to lower
the student tax.

Graft Rumor
November 22, 1929
“The rumor to the effect that
members of the sophomore class
have misappropriated class funds is
absolutely without any foundation
whatsoever,” Georpe P, Rice, presi-
dent of the class, declared today.
“During this week the rumor has
been circulating around the locker
rooms and corridors. If the actual
circumstances surrounding the ap-
proval of the appropriation were
known, everyone could easily see
how groundless the rumor is," Rice
said.
‘The rumor began when an ap-
propriation of $10 was recently
granted for the expenses of the
sophomore football team, At the
time, no specific manner of spending
the money was outlined. Members of
the class spunt the money for
shoulder pads and other football
equipment, accordingto Kenneth E.
Mioler, sophomore manager of
men's athletics.
Coach Rugherford R. Baker loan-
ed a ball to the men of both the
freshman and sophomore classes for
their football During one of
the practice sessions, the ball was
booted up into a.tree and lost. Ariton
Bush, freshman manager of men’s
athictics, purchased a new football,
costing $10. After the hame, this new
ball was given to Coach Baker to
replace the one which the men had
lost.
Student Tax 14 Dollars
October 4, 1929
A fourteen dollar student tax, an
increase of one dollar over the
assessment last year, will be
presented in student assembly today,
according to an announcement of
the student board of finance. Larger
appropriations requested by several
student organizations will make the
increase necessary if the proposed
budget is accepted by the student
association,
‘At least $1,000 will have to be
deducted from the budget in order to
lower the tax one dollar, according
to the board. Even though a full
dollar is not required to meet
creased budget items, the tax will
have to be in even dollars, because
collection of change introduces too
great a chance for error. There have
been no errors so tar in collection
of tax money, according to
Professor Clarence A. Hidley,
treasurer of the student board of
finance, because there was constant-
ly a check between the amount of
money collected and the number of
tickets sold.
If the budget is reduced less than
$1,000, the tax can not be $13. It the
reserve fund were larger, enough
money could be deducted to make
up any deficit caused by a $13 tax,
but the infirmary fund drew on the
reserve money heavily last year, and
