Open Letier Given
To Pres. Collins
By War Committee

President Evan R. Collins was
presented twice with the open
letter addressed to him in the
“Objector” at his weekly con-
ference with students.

First, the President was hand-
ed an issue of the publication by
one of the students at the con-
ference. After President Collins
glanced over the letter a member
of the Student-Faculty Committee
to End the War in Vietnam pre-
sented him with the sealed letter,
which the President indicated
should have been seen before,

The letter asked the President
to “publically and explicitly con-
demn the general’s directive as
both a threat to the freedom to
dissent and a violation of the
democratic concept of justice.’

The committee also asked the
President to ‘take action against
the General by barring further
recruitment on campus.” Presi-
dent Collins noted that it was an
‘interesting device” to publish
an open letter before he received
it.

The representative from the
End the War group apologized for
the faux pas, and explained that
the committee had planned to
deliver the letter in the morning
but thought his office was on the
new campus. Consequently, the
letter wasn’t delivered until the
conference,

The President stated that he
was in favor of protest, but there
was one kind of protest he was
determined to stop and another
he was determined to preserve.

The President expressed his
disapproval of the type of de-
monstration that would infringe
upon the right of self expression
and free inquiry of others.

President Collins also stated
he would not be able to reply to
the letter of the End the War
Committee since he did not pos-
sibly have time to study it,

Although President Collins dis-
agreed with the tactics of General
Lewis B, Hershey he also dis-
agreed with those of the people
who wish to bar recruiting on
campus.

Such an action, according tothe
President, would interfere with
intellectual freedom of and im-
pose a censorship on the Univer-
sity community. The University
is, stated the President, one of
the few places where intellectual
freedom can be found. Collins
views the preservation of this
freedom a special responsibility,

‘University Band
To Present Concert
This evening at 8:30 p.m. the
University Concert Band, under
the direction of William Hudson,
will give their first University
performance of the year.
Appearing with the band will be
Finlay Cockrell, solo pianist. Ad-

mission is free,

ft will open with Menottt’s
“Overture and Caccia’? from his
opera the ‘*Last Savage.’ First
performed in 1963, it contains
possibly the most difficult wood-
wind parts written for band.

Also to be performed is Syme
phony No. 6, composed in 1956,
his largest work for band, It em-
ploys a wide range of percussion
instruments which create unusual
and interesting effects.

The second half will contain
two pieces by Gershwin, selec-
tions from “Porgy and Bess,”
which include ‘Summertime’ and
‘Bess you is my woman,’

FORMING AT 6:30 in the morning, draft protesters turned

in 46 complicity statements. Six draft cards were refused by

the Federal Marshal at the induction center.

Protesters Turn In
Complicity Statements

by Jill Poznik
Staff Reporter

‘Due to the aggressive nature
of American Foreign policy, I,
—————— do hereby declare
that I will knowingly aid, counsel
and abet any young man torefuse
or evade registration or service
in the armed forces of the United
States of America.

“*T further declare that I have
knowingly aided and counseled
young men to refuse to comply
with the regulations of the Uni-
versal Military Training and
Service Act of 1967 and I will
continue to support those men
who turn in their draft cards,
burn or mutilate their draft
eards,”?

This is the complicity state-
ment of which there were forty«
six handed to Federal Marshal
Bryne during the course of the
anti-draft protest march Monday
morning, Dec. 4.

Shouts of ‘Keep America beau-
tiful—get a haircut”? and ‘*Keep
walking till you drop dead” greet-
ed draft protestors at the Induce
tion Center on Broadway.

Mark Rosenberg, leader of the
Resistance at Bard College, and
a small contingent from that
school arrived on the scene at
about 8:30. He asked to see the
Federal Marshal in order to
transact some business, He made
no statement as to the content of
this transaction,

Deputy Marshal Brinkman, who
stayed on the scene in front of
the Induction Center, ‘to protect
these people against them-
selves,’’ said that the Marshal
would meet the protestors on the
steps outside the Center at
10;00 a.m.

When the time came, however,
a select group of protestors in-
cluding Rosenberg were escorted
by the Deputy Marshal to the
Marshal’s office where Marshal
Byrne was askcd by Rosenberg
to accept the 46 complicity state-
ments and six draft cards,

Marshall Byrne accepted the
statements and Rosenberg’s per-
sonal declaration, however, he
refused to accept the draft cards
saying that, as far as he knew,
the draft card must be given up

by the person to whom it was
issued.

The Marshal stated that he
would accept any written com-
munications other than draft
ecards, (The penalty for signing

Campus Chest Week

Three events are scheduled to
climax Campus Chest Week at
the University this weekend. A
Friday Midnight Horror Movie,
the Masquerade and Casino night
on Saturday, and Sunday’s Tree
trimming “contest will cap the
week of entertainment.

The Midnight Horror Movie
tonight will feature the original
film versions of ‘Dracula’ and
“Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.’? The
show will begin at 11 p.m, in the
Assembly Room of the Campus
Center. Tickets will be available

Golden Eye To Present
Garson Satire, ‘MacBird’

The Golden Eye will present
Barbara Garson’s ‘‘MacBird!’’
tonight. The play is a personal
and political satire on the Ken-
nedys (Ken O’Dunes) and the
Johnsons (MacBirds).

Directed by Alex Krakower
and his assistants Stratton Raw-
son and Dan Stimmerman, the
production will be done in
a ‘*Reader’s Theatre” style. This
method will be achieved by the
“actors”? reading the dialogue
but not physically interacting with
each other.

The dramatic reading will be
accompanied with musical ef-
fects. This method of production
is designed to leave more up to
the imagination of the audience,

A parody on “Macbeth,” the
personalities of the real Kennedy-
Johnson situation are paralleled
with the characters of Shakes-
peare’s tragedy. The situation
here, however, are the events
leading up to and following the
assassination of the King (Pres-
ident).

The comedy is drawn from the
parody element; the satire is
from the light in which the char-
acters are portrayed. Both the
Ken O’Dones and the MacBirds
are devastated by the bitter sa-
tire.

Krakower feels that only the
cynical observer of the Kennedy-
Johnson situation will be able to
view the play with complete
glee. The Kennedy and-or John-
son fans on the other hand, will
feel the brunt of the satire. No
one is spared; everyone in the
Political arena is the target of
Mrs. Garson’s play.

The main characters of *‘Mac-
Bird’ (LBJ) and Robert Ken
O’Done (RFK) will be played by

William Rohde and Michael Ruth-
erford respectively. Also includ-
ed in the cast are Stuart Solo-
man, Don Terry, Beth Sabowitz,
Phillip King, Jay Kuperman, El-
len Rogers, Joyce Levy, Steve
Brockhouse, and Bob Cutty.

son Ave,

Stanley Hyman
Discusses “Iago,”

New Motivation

by Devic erm

Stanley Edgar Hyman, noted
literary critic and Bennington
College professor, gave a lec-
ture on “Iago, —Some Approach-
es te Motivation’ discussing the
different interpretations of
Shakespeare’s villain in ‘Oth-
ello’ last Wednesday, in the
Campus Center Ballroom.

The lecture consisted in
Hyman’s reading from his forth-
coming book about Iago, At pre-
sent, the book will be divided
into five chapters, discussing
five different motivations,

The first chapter presents Iago
as simply as stage villain. Hy-
man says\|lago\shows his villainy
in boastful soliloquies and in
acts such as stabbing Rodrigo,
The second chapter is a theo-
logical criticism in which Hy-
man says Iago represents a type
of Satan, Desdemona a Christ
figure and Othello a Judas.

The third chapter discusses
Psychoanalytic motivation, pre-
senting Iago as a latent homo-
sexual, When Iago and Othello
kneel together and vow, this,
according to Hyman, isa “mon
struous homosexual marriage
act?

The fourth chapter discussed
by Hyman is the role that Shake-
speare himself plays in the char-
acter of Iago. Many times in
the play, Iago speaks as Shake-
speare would,

The fifth and final motivation
to be discussed by Hyman is
the history of ideas, In the play,
Hyman felt, Iago represents a
Renaissance Machiavellian inhis
material desires,

Hyman concluded by saying that
none of the above motivations is
the answer to the personality of
Tago, together they are all part
of the answer.

The lecture was followed by a
brief question and answer period,

fessor Curtis L. Hemmingway of

clude promoting sailing as a re

Traffic Safety Rests

In Students’ Hands

Richard D. Ellis, Director of
Traffic Safety Education ex-
pressed a feeling that one of
the greatest social problems
today is the loss of human and
economic resources through traf-
fic accidents,

He feels that unless a major
breakthrough in the number of
high school pupils who graduate
from formal traffic safety edu-
cation programs double in the
next five years, the tragedy will
continue to increase in severity.

Federal and State Governments
and local school districts are
making an all-out effort to meet
the challenge. To meet the needs
of the high school pupil, schools
are doubling the number of teach-
ers in their programs and the
few schools without programs are
employing new teachers as fast
as they are available.

The problem lies in that the
present supply of qualified teach-
ers does not meet the demand
and needs of the local school dis-
tricts. There were at least 25
traffic safety education positions
in New York State which were
not filled at the beginning of the
1967-68 school year,

Ellis feels that University Jun-
jors and Seniors who have
driver’s licenses and are en-
rolled in programs leading to
Secondary certification should
give every preservice prepara-
tion program (TSP 450 and TSP
451) for teaching traffic safety
education @ncluding preparation
for and student teaching on the
simulator and multiple vehicle
laboratories),

A prospective candidate for
a local school district position

who has dual certification @
major field plus approval intraf
fie safety education) has the ad-
vantage to school administrators,
and Ellis feels it behooves stu-
dents to prepare themselves ac-
cordingly,

The total program is explained
in the undergraduate catalog (pg.
197) and the School of Education
Bulletin (pg. 100). Students are
invited to contact the Director
of Traffic Safety Education in
Education Building Room B-20
for details.

CHOICE 68, National Collegi-
ate Presidential Primary will be
held next spring, to offer college
students the opportunity to ex-
press their preference on Presi-
dential candidates and selected
issues.

This will be the first time that
every university, college and
junior college can speak as a body
politic.

CHOICE 68 will be administer-
ed by eleven student leaders re-
presenting different geographic

regions and every type of
campuses. This Board of Di-
rectors will establish basic

guidelines for the Presidential
Primary, design the national
ballot, and provide overall
leadership and direction,

Time magazine has agreed to
underwrite the cost of national
administration of CHOICE 68 as
a public service. There will be,
however, no connection between
the Primary and the editorial
content of Time.

CHOICE 68 will becoordinated
by the Executive Director, Ro-
bert G, Harris, who will carry
out the decisions of the Board of
Directors, solicit the support and
participation of the colleges,
direct national publicity and
press relations, and provide for
the independent tabulation and
analysis of the’ election results.

Request For Separation

by Vic Looper

Central Council passed a
resolution which, based on
the solid support of the student
body, requests that the University
officials no longer require that
resident students enter into a
Board contract unless they wish
to do so, at the Thursday, Nov.
30 meeting,

The resolution also requests
a re-evaluation of the present
meal plan; and designates Living
Area Affairs Commission
(LAAC) to offer specific recom-
mendations to the appropriate
persons, subject to the approval
of Council.

The resolution is the direct
result of a poll that LAAC took a
number of weeks ago to deter-
mine student opinion on the pre-
sent board policy and other fea»
sible alternative policies,

As it now stands, if a student
lives in the dorm he must also
enter into a Board contract for
meals, There are very few ex-
ceptions to this rule; the major
exception is offered for re-
lgious reasons. Approximately
90 per cent of the resident stu-
dents responded to the poll. 80
per cent were for separation of
room and board. These figures
are based on incomplete returns.

LAAC was instructed to come
up with a specific plan, since
there were a number of plans

IFG Film , ‘ Joan’

Demonism, witchcraft, and re-
ligious mysticism are the ele-
ments of tonight’s IFG film,
‘Mother Joan of the Angels.’?

Winner of several European
festival prizes, the film por-
trays a Mother Superior report-
edly possessed by Satanic de-
mons. Priests who have attempt-
ed to reform her have been burn-
ed at the stake, and minor de-
mons are beginning to control the
other convent nuns,

Director Jerry Kawalerowicz
has said, ‘The film is a protest
against all dogmatism, whatever
it is, but at the same time it is
about love. . . The devils and
the nuns constitute nothing but
a pretext. What really counts is
the clash in man’s aspirations
which Ihave tried to portray.”
Possession and madness are
nothing but revolts of human na-
ture against old allies and con-
formities we are forced to put
up with,”

This unusual Polish film will
be shown tonight at 7:00 and 9:15
in Draper 349,

plan they decide on will have to
be approved by Council and the
University.

Council also passed another
resolution which will urge Presi«
dent Collins and Dr. Thorne to
call a meeting of the Alcohol
Committee to consider the ques-
tion of allowing alcohol in the
dorms,

When the committee made their
recommendations, the alcohol in
the dorms policy was not fully
resolved. This resolution was
passed by a huge margin andwith
very little debate.

Council also acted onanumber
of other items. A discussion of
write-in votes was held to deter-
mine whether they should be
allowed in elections or not. This
was brought before Council be-
cause the Election Commission
was split over the matter.

The major argument for write-
in votes was that the student
should have the right to vote for
anyone they want to whether they
were on the ballot or not.

Opposing arguments were bas-
ed on the fact that there was self-
nomination and if a person wanted
to run he could simply nominate
himself. Furthermore, most
write~in candidates have very

This was countered by Paul
Breslin who stated that last year
there was no candidate on the
ballot for Treasurer of the Class
of ’69 and therefore a write-in
vote was necessary to fill the
position. a

A statement was made that
write-in votes be accepted unless
the election involved screening

Draft Protesters
State Complicity

(Cont?d from Page 1)

a complicity statement 1s equiva-
Jent to draft card burning — up
to five years in prison and or up
to a $10,000 fine.)

The unaccepted draft cards
were susequently sent by mail to
Ramsey Clark of the Justice De-
partment in Washington.

The group assembled in the
Marshal’s office, including Bob
Kalish and Norm Early of SDS
at State, was interviewed by a
number of reporters including
those from WPTR and WTRY,

Rosenberg stated during this
interview that he had turned in
his draft card at the Justice Dept.
in Washington on Oct, 20th. The
next day he burned his classifica-
tion card at the Pentagon. On Oct.
24 he was visited by FBI agents
whose questions went, for the
most part, unanswered.

He had been classified 2S until
June of this year whenhis classi-
fication expired, He has not been
notified further by a government
agency. All this was stated inhis
personal declaratién handed to
the Marshal,

Of the six draft cards, Rosen-
berg explained that one came
from an Episcopal minister and
two others from Vietnam war
veterans.

Although their numbers were
small, their spirit and signs
compensated, The chant ‘Hell
mo, we won't go’? was repeated
every once in awhile and when
they weren’t yelling, their signs
expressed their purpose and
thoughts such as ‘‘The Dove Has
Torn Its Wing.””

The main doors of the Induction
Center facing Broadway were
closed to the public and only
employes and those having papers
indicating that they were required
to transact official business at the
Center were permitted to enter
through a guarded side door.

When asked what she thought
of the protest, one female em~-
ploye in an olive drab uniform
said she had been in the service
twenty-four years and she thought
the protest was sickening.

‘A man reporting for his induc-
tion said ofthe objectors, ‘‘Ifthey
want to try and end the war let
them go ahead, I feel that this
country has been good to me and
if they need me to fight for it,
Tam going to.”

Opinion inside the post office
next to the Induction Center was
unanimously against the protest-
ors. At the window of one teller
a man commented that ‘We are
trying now to stop people from
being killed later. We are killing
now to prevent the’spread of
communism.,’?

Another saidthe‘* Though some
of our men are getting killed, we
are trying to stop the spread of
communism therefore staying
there is the lesser of twoevils.””

When asked why he burned his
draft card Rosenberg stated that
it was, ‘tin protest to American
Foreign Policy.” He called the
policy of the United States in
Vietnam “duplicitous, impertal-
istic, totalitarian and exe
ploitive.’*

He believes that ‘‘the United
States is headed toward a col-
lision course and there is only
one way out and that is with-
drawal,’”

Deputy Marshal Brinkman
commented later on his personal
views. He said “I was born and
raised in this country. I love it
the way it is.’? When questioned
as to whether this applied to
government policies also, Brink-
man said, ‘I like the government
the way it is; if it were any
different people wouldn’t be
getting away with what they are
today.”

Figures Totaled

Final enrollment figures at
the University revealed a total
of 9,150 students on campus this

Winter Weekend To Include
Exhibit, Formal, Sing

by Nancy Durish

Winter Weekend, planned to
highlight Albany’s winter sea-
son, will take place Dec, 15
through 17. On Friday, the week-
end will commence with two per-
formances given by the Danish
Exhibition Gymnastics Team.

“Winterlude”? is the theme for
Saturday night’s All University
Formal, a combination dinner-
dance. Finally, rounding out the
weekend, is the traditional Holi-
day Sing.

The Danish Exhibition Gym-
nastics Team in addition to per-
forming regular gymnastic
stunts, will demonstrate a num-
ber of Danish folk dances. Dur-
ing the program, exhibitions will
also be given by Albany’s Fenc-
ing and Modern Lance Clubs.

The performances will be
staged at 7 and 9 p.m, in the
Page Hall gym. Tickets will go
on sale in the Campus Center
tomorrow at a cost of 75 cents
with a student tax card and $1.00
without student tax. Co-chairmen
for the event are Donna Gavel
and Gary Restiso.

Following the exhibition, the
Rathskeller will officially open
its doors, Beer will be served
to students in the snack bar
area.

Special Events Board Co-
chairmen Linda Bosco and Joe
McCullough have been in the pro-
cess of organizing the newly re-
vived All-University formal.

‘The formal, the first of its
kind at the University, will be
held from 9 p.m. to 1:30 a.m,
on Saturday night in the Campus
Center Ballroom, with music by
the Tom Ippolito Dance Band.
Tickets will be on sale a week
prior to the formal in the Cam-
pus Center.

The main attraction will be
the floor show, featuring guest

is planning a gala dinner for the
evening. Liquor will be served
at the standard price of 75 cents
per drink, and proof of age will
be necessary. The dress is for-
mal, but there is a black suit
option for the men.

Sunday evening from 7 to 10
p.m,, Page Hall will be the scene

of the traditional Holiday Sing,
with 25 groups participating this
year.

Hawley Library will not be
available for closed circuit TV
this year, but the Sing will be
broadcast live on WSUA,

The singing groups will be oc-
cupying most of the seats in
Page Hall, therefore, there are
only a limited number of tickets
available. They will go on sale
Tuesday, Dec. 12 at 11 a.m. in
the Campus Center; only one
ticket per student tax card. Buses
will run to and from Page Hall,

groups perform their selections,

For this special event, dormi-
tory hours for all freshman wo-
men have been extended to 2a.m.

2 Watkins”, ‘The

College Press Talks
With North Vietnamese

By Steve D’Arazien
Collegiate Press Service

(Steve D’Arazien, CP’s
man in Saigon stopped off in
Moscow on his way to Viet-
nam.While there he talked to
@ North Vietnamese govern-
ment official about their
views on the war and about
prospects for peace, The
abbreviation DRV used
thr oughout the article stands
for the Democratic Republic
of Vietnam, official title of
North Vietnam.)

Although it is clear that the
North Vietnamese do not trust
the U.S, government I found it
relatively easy to talk to the
North Vietnamese representative
I met with on two occasions
here. He agreed to see me be-
cause I came as a representa-
tive of the college press —
the North Vietnamese are very
much aware of opposition to the
war among college students.

All in all, I talked with the
First Secretary of the DRV, Do
Kiem, for about five hours. He
spoke Vietnamese, an attache
translated into Russian and my
Intourist guide translated into
English. We drank green Viet-
namese tea and smoked Dien
Bien Phu cigarettes. Do Kiem
was extremely gracious through-
out our discussions.

I went to our first meeting
prepared with specific questions
about the technicalities of nego-
tiations. Some of these were
touched upon at our second meet~
ing, others were ignored. It is
my general impression that once
the DRV is convinced the Unit-
ed States sincerely wants peace,

these difficulties can be sur-
mounted.
Americans should realize,

whether it is true or not — at
this point I have no way of know=
ing — that the North Vietna-
mese believe they are winning
the war militarily.

In the last two years, the
Secretary said, the balance of
power has shifted. He believes

the DRV and NLF forces now
have the advantage. In the last
five months, the DRV claims to
have killed 150,000 troops, of
which 70,000 were Americans.
They also claim to have stale-
mated U.S, offensive operations.

So Kiem said that 2,407 Amer-
ican aircraft had been downed
by DRV or NFL fire. This fig-
ure includes 43 types of aircraft,
including B52’s. Later I saw an
edition of the Herald Tribune,
still published in Paris which
said we had admitted to 2,709
losses, but that not all the loss«
es were due to enemy fire. The
First Secretary also said that
because captured pilots are now
often older men, and of higher
rank, the DRV believes the Unit-
ed States faces a pilot shortage.

In spite of the heavy bombing
by U.S, planes, Do Kiem claims
rice production in the North has
been increasing, that industries
have been started where there
were none before, and that ‘the
educational, cultural and medical
aspects of life are being de-
veloped” in a country with a
population of 18 million, five
million young people are in
school, including institutions of
higher learning, the First Sec-
retary said.

At the present time, Hanoi
and Haiphong have not been level-
ed. American attacks on the port
of Haiphong, I am told, havebeen
carefully executed so as not to
sink any foreign ships. Presum-
ably some targets in both cit-
ies are still restricted.

I asked Do Kiem whether the
North Vietnamese were prepar-
ed for the leveling of thesecities
or for the possibility that all the
escalation is merely a prelude
to nuclear attacks on China it-
self. My question was misinter-
preted to mean nuclear attacks
on North Vietnam. Do Kiem said
the North Vietnamese could ab-
sorb even that. ‘‘Modern weapons
are useless in Vietnam,” he said.

Later another journalist told
me the North Vietnamese arepre-
pared for anything. They haveal-
ready written off Hanoi, a city
they regard as too French. They
have drawn up plans for a new
city.

“All the Vietnamese people
believe in the victory over Amer-
ican imperialism,” Do Kiem
Said. Their belief in eventual vic-
tory is bolstered by a 4,000-
year history of resistance tofor-
eign domination. ‘In the 12thand
13th centuries the Vietnamese
fought the Mongol invasions. Lat-
er it was the Chinese. More re-
cently we have ousted the Japan-
ese and then the French,’’ Kiem
said. The North Vietnamese be-
lieve the Americans are just
another group of foreigners to
be expelled.

The theme of liberation, of the
just struggle for self-~determina-
tion, recurs throughout the propa-
ganda Do Kiem gave me. Ho
Chi Minh has said, ‘nothing is
more precious than a fight for in-
dependence and freedom.”’ These
North Vietnamese pamphlets as-
sert that the Vietnamese people
will win their fight because of
“moral superiority.” They place
considerable emphasis on non-
military factors such as these,
and on programs such as land
redistribution, as the reasons
the superior morale is superior
to that of the Army of the Re-
public of Vietnam (ARVIN), whose
lack of morale has often been
noted in the U.S, press, and to
that of our own forces as well.

The acknowledged corrup-
tion of the Ky regime is a strong
factor in their favor, the North
Vietnamese believe. They see
the South Vietnamese government
as a mere puppet of America
and say that without American
support it would fall in a day,

“The Saigon government is
like a stable in which the horses
are fighting for a piece of hay.
They are even ready to kill each
other for their own interests.
And the Army of South Vietnam
is helpless. They can’t evenpaci-
fy their backyard,’”’ Mr. Kiem
said, explaining that the libera-
tion movement has spread from
the countryside to the cities.

Jewish Students

Socialize, Discuss
In Hillel, Atid

Hillel is the religious organi-
zation on the University campus
which serves the Jewish student,
Hillel provides a meeting place
for the Jewish students and offers
to them religious, social, and
cultural events.

Presently Hillel is going
through a period of reorganiza-
tion with the installment of two
new advisors, Dr, Cohen, pro-
fessor of Social Welfare, and
Mr. Frankel, Hillel has many
new and exciting ideas which
shall take shape inthe near future
with the reorganization.

The University chapter of
Hillel meets once a month; while
“Perspectives,” a discussion
group, meets every other Tues-
day night.

Atid is the theological dis-
cussion group of Hillel. In Hebrew
Atid means “future.” This name
signifies that the group is com-
posed of students looking into the
future.

This semester’s topic of dis-
cussion is ‘‘Pirke Aboth’? which
mean “Sayings of the Fathers,’?
“‘Pirke Aboth’? is a collection of
the ethical sayings of some sixty
rabbis who lived between 200
and 300 B.C, The discussions
are led by Mr, Philip Arian,
educational director of Temple
Israel in Albany,

Atid’s activities have included
a dinner and lecture at Temple

Newman. Society
Promotes Action
And Involvement

Newman Association has been
on campus at Albany for over
forty years, This Catholic stu-
dent parish is the offspring of a
defensive organization formed to
protect Catholic students from
overpowering outside influences,

With the concept of a threat to
faith gone, Newman has become
an action minded group involved
with social, cultural, educational
and religious aspects of a stu-
dent’s life.

More than its actionas group,
Newman is interested in serving
as a catalyst to involve students
in university life. Through the
Personal involvement of the stu-
dents Newman helps serve the
university community indirectly
as well as directly through its
own actions.

Newman provides worship
opportunities for its parishion-
ers. The social aspect of worship
is carried through. Newman’s
social and educational activities,

Clothing drives, a food for
India day as well as involvement
with other groups in Big Brother-
Big Sister and tutorial programs
are part of Newman’s social
action,

Educational service to the stu-
dent and university community
provide lectures such as the
week of SEARCH and ‘*What’s it
all about”? series, Also under
educational opportunities is the
theology curriculum which pro-
vides for lectures and discus-
sions to take the place of a uni-
versity curriculum in theology.

Newman is also involved in
activities such as sponsoring
mixers, discussions on music
such as the discussion of the
music of Simon and Garfunko,
for the benefit of the entire stu-
dent community,

School Of Social Welfare
Formed and Molded By Rice

by Gary Gelt

Begin with an idea, Then bring
in a man like Dr. Richardson
Rice to shape, form, and mold
that idea into a tangible reality.
In this manner the School of
Social Welfare at the University
had its origin,

In the spring of 1964, the School
was just an idea, Rice, who had
completed three and one-half
years with the United Nations as
an advisor to the Family and
Child Welfare division for the
U.A.R., began to coordinate the
School and pull together afaculty
and curriculum. Thirty students
were accepted from 80 appli-
cants for the first class, Today
there is an enrollment of 58
students,

The school’s ‘Bulletin’ states
that the ‘objective of the graduate
program is to educate for pro-
fessional social work service to
individuals, groups, and the com-
munity.’ Dean Rice said thatone
third to one half the work by
the graduate students is done in
instruction centers throughout
the Albany - Schenectady - Troy
area,

Not only are the graduates
from the School of Social Welfare
going into social work, but they
are also trained for urban de-
velopment, community planning,
and criminal prevention projects,
The formation of social welfare
extends right up to the seat of
government, and includes such
things as economic and wealth
distribution,

Rice feels that a certain type
of personality is required to be-
come adept in the field of social
welfare, The social worker must

Religious Affairs
To Help Develop

All-Faith Center

The Commission for Religious
Affairs was organized to assist
members of the University com-
munity in their search for faith
and spiritual understanding.

During its first year of exis-
tence the Commission began to
strive for active involvement in
the discussion of pertinent moral
and social issues that affect col-
lege life,

The Commission coordinates
and represents the concern of
its members within the Univer-
sity structure. At present, mem-
bership is composed of elected
representatives from the or-
ganized religious groups on
campus, appointed faculty and
clergy advisors.

Freshmen are oriented to the
religious activities on campus
through the Commission, which
distributes information about the
religious groups on campus and
the location of churches and
synagogues.

The Commission fosters an
ecumenical spirit among the
faiths through activities such as
the Inter - Faith Thanksgiving
Festival, and is now’ studying
the future development of an
Inter-Faith Center at the Uni-
versity,

like people, like working with
People, and have a concern for
people. “We are not training
technicians,” stated Rice. “If
we become too technically orient
ed we begin to treat people like
things. This we cannot do.’’

Rice recently announced his
resignation of his administrative
Position in the school. No suc-
cessor has been named yet but
Rice hopes that one will be found
before the end of this academic
year. Rice will continue on a
teaching basis to helpdevelop the
potential of others and to continue
sharing his theory that “love is
not enough.’?

Coordinating Committee

Distributes

by Ed Witazek

In a recent issue of the ASP,
a photograph of a painting ap-
pearing in the library was
printed.

Dean Lois H. Gregg, chairman
of the Art Coordination Com-
mittee, said the painting, ananti-
que, was an anonymous gift to
the University, and after being
accepted by her committee, was
placed in the library where it
was “thought to be a valuable
addition to the library’s collec-
tion?”

This work, by the Dutch artist
Emi Carlson, is just one of over
300 art works displayed by the
committee, whose main purpose
is to do all possible to bring
works of art to the new campus,

Since its organization, the com-
mittee has placed art works in

get groups, either folk, jazz or
rock, to perform in the Rath-
skeller on weekends.

The program is an attempt to

Groups interested in perform-
ing on a volunteer basis may con-
tact Miss Buchalter in the
Campus Center.

lounges, the U-shape lounges in
the residence quads, the infirm-
ary and the campus center.

Currently, the committee is
studying the possibilities of ac-
quiring sculpture for the campus
courtyards,

Since no state funds were allot-
ted for the committee, works are
acquired through funds given by
the Faculty-Student Organization
and Central Council, from
various foundations and from
donations, usually from alumni,

Dean Gregg, suggested the Uni-
versity take an active role in
fund raising. She suggested spon-
soring another telethon. She also
pointed out that various groups
have made donations in the past,

Specifically, she said, a Mar-
garet Crawford painting was ac-
quired from funds raised by the
faculty and personnel of the Bio-
logy - Science Dept., the main-
tenance staff of the Bio Bldg.,
and Beta Beta Beta, the Biology
honorary, and matched by the
Art Coordinating Committee,

Another problem, which may
affect future acquisitions, is
thievery,

Yet, aside from these’ prob-
lems, the committee appears to
be nearing its goals of placing
art works about the University,

The committee, organized in
1965, is composed of Dr, Arthur
Collins, Mr. Edward Cowley, Dr.

UITER at the Albany induction cent

draft protesters. The demonstration in which students from the University participated

lasted most of the morning.

Selective Service System:

Reforms May

A

WASHINGTON (CPS) — Al
though Congress has extended the
draft for four more years, the
Selective Service System still
may become a campaign issue in
next year’s Presidential election.

{t is highly doubtful that either
the Democratic or Republican
candidate will pledge to abolish
the draft at this time. But it
appears likely that one or both
parties will propose a number
of reforms in the military sys-
tem which, among other things,
may be aimed at reducing draft
calls to zero.

Such reforms would be de
signed to encourage more young
people to volunteer for the Army
by making military service
appear more attractive. The most
important reform would be to
raise the military pay scale so
that it begins at the minimum
wage level of civilian rates.

More Pay for Soldiers

Chances that increased pay for
soldiers will be a campaign issue
were boosted last week when a
Gallup poll showed that eight out
of ten persons favor such a plan,
When an issue has such a wide-
spread voter appeal, Presidential
candidates are not likely toignore

tee proposal aiso is becomis,
more popular in Congress.
Twenty-two Republican House
members recently issued a joint
statement advocating certain
military reforms, including an
increased pay scale, as a way
of reducing draft calls and put-
ting the armed forces on a volun
teer basis.

The House already has taken
the initial step by passing a 5.6
per cent increase in basic pay
for the nation’s 3.5 million mili-
tary servicemen, The bill, which
would cost about $633 million in
the first year, is expected to
receive positive action in the
Senate. _

Big Question

The big question is whether or
not more young people will vo-
lunteer for the military if Con-
gress and the Pentagon increase
the benefits for military per-
sonnel. Most observers agree
that military reforms will result
in an increased number of volun-
teers, but there is a disagree
ment over whether there would
be enough volunteers to enddraft
calls, < 4

At least five Congressmen
think an all-volunteer army is
indeed possible if the right im-
provements are made, Their
ideas appear in a book entitled,
“How to End the Draft,’ which
‘was published this month.

The Congressmen list 31 speci-
fic recommendations in what they
say is “‘the first effort to define
systematically a specific pro-
gram of action which can lead

to an all-volunteer service and
the elimination of draft calls.’

They believe that if their re-
commendations are followed, an
all-volunteer service is possible
within two to five years. The
estimated total maximum cost
is $3.96 billion a year.

Republican Authors

Authors of the book are Re-
publicans Robert T. Stafford,
Frank J. Horton, Richard S. Sch-
weiker, Garner E. Shriver, and
Charles W. Whalen, Jr. They
emphasize they are not advocat-
ing that the Selective Service
System be abolished, but are
merely recommending reforms
which ‘individually and collect-
ively can work to reduce the size
of draft calls, hopefully down to
zero,” even under present cir-
cumstances,

But, says Douglas F, Bailey,
research director for the five
Congressmen, ‘‘if escalation of
the war continued, resulting in
the need for more servicemen,
there would still have to be some
draft.

“ don’t think we could getthat
many to volunteer, But I think
this plan will be effective in end-
ing the draft under the present
situation and particularly under
real peace-time circumstances.”

Defense’s Actions

Many of the recommendations
require no Congressional action
and could be implemented immed-
jately by the Department of De-
-fense,

The major proposal needing
legislative action involves mili-
tary pay increases, ‘As long
as the beginning servicemen get
paid less then the minimum wage
required by law, there is no
hope of ever getting rid of the
draft,” Rep. Stafford says,

Come in Future

“qf the military pay scales
are not made commensurate with
elvilian pay scales, many young
men who may wish to serve may
not do so for they cannot afford
to make the financial sacrifice.”

Necessary Legislation

Bailey predicts that the legis-
lation necessary to encourage the
all-volunteer service ‘will be
either passed next year or in
1969 under a Republican Presi-
dent and a new Congress.”

One problem, he feels, is that
President Johnson will not want
to endorse the proposals since
they are being pushed by Repub-
licans. But he thinks Johnson
will push for them anyway if
and when he feels it will be
to his political advantage. And
Bailey thinks that all the poten-
tial Republican candidates for
President will endorse the pro-
posals and strive for an all-
volunteer service.

In addition to reforming the
pay scale, the five Congressmen
are suggesting a new program of
retirement benefits, expanded
educational programs, a higher
and fixed recruitment advertising
budget, and expansion of a pro-
gram to replace some noncombat
uniform personnel with civilians,

They also recommend require-
ments that standards of accept-
ability for voluntary enlistment
not be more difficult than they
are for the draft.

The proposals of the Repub-
lican Congress could provide the
basis for a major issue in thé
GOP platform. And if polls com
tinue to indicate the overwhelm-
ing majority of the voters favor
the plan, President Johnson and
the Democrats may be forced to
respond in some way,

Criteria Revised For

Migrating

The factors used by Canadian
officials in judging young Ameri-
cans migrating to Canada have
now been revised and codified
into a point system.

This system replaced old regu-
lations under which some would-
be migrants could be turned down
by an immigration officer bee
cause of a single defiency. Any
immigrant scoring 50 out of a
possible 100 “‘assessment units”?
will now be admitted to Canada.

According to Candian Citizen-
ship and Immigration Minister

The Draft March:
Why I Joined

t by Bob Kalish

The bi-partisan policies of the
Democrats and Republicans are
leading the people of the United
States toward disaster,

The war in Vietnam continues
to escalate - more bombing, more
troops, more American casual-
ties and more death and destruc-
tion for the Vietnamese people.
Each escalation on the part of
the United States brings us closer
to a nuclear confrontation with
the USSR and or China.

The American people have also
suffered. Besides our sons being
killed, we have had to pay higher
taxes with more to come and
higher prices for all goods. The
rebuilding of American cities and
the war on poverty stand idly by
as the U.S. continues its destruc-
tion of Vietnamese cities and the
war on the Vietnamese people.
And worst of all, as the protests
against the war andthe wretched-
ness of the lives of the black
peoples mount, the government
is becoming more repressive and
totalitarian in its response todis-
sent and resistance,

To a great many people in this
country, Johnson has not justified
his intervention in this civil con-
flict. Until 1963 it was Viete
namese fighting Vietnamese for
control of the country. Today the
Army of South Vietnam sits back
while the U,S, kills Vietnamese,
which is in clear violation of the
Geneva Conference in 1956, No
matter how you look at it the
U.S. is committing aggression in
Vietnam. The answer that we
must stop Communism is not
good enough. We cannot stop an
ideology with bullets andnapalm.

Who profits from the abyss the
U.S. has stumbled into? It is
neither you nor I, The thing that
profits from war was character-
ized by President Eisenhower as
the ‘*Military and Industrial Com-
plex” of which we shouldbe most
wary. Business makes big profits
from the war and their exploita-
tion of it and what do we get in
return? — polluted air and water,
and higher prices, The military
also has more power, e.g. there-
cent “promotion” of McNamara
to get him out of the way so the

generals can run the war theway
they want to.

General Lewis Hershey's re-
cent statement about the draft
and his arbitrary use of power
are in contradiction to the First
Amendment to the Constitution
which states ‘Congress shall
make no law. . . abridging the

freedom of speech, or of the
press, or of the right of the
people peacefully to assemble,
and to petition the government
for a redress of grievances, Does
Gen. Hershey feel that he isa
higher authority than the Con-
stitution? Does he think he can
start making laws instead of
Congress?

Even American liberals are
off base. Kingman Brewster Jr.,
president of Yale University, in
dissenting with Hershey’s letter
of November 4 in which he told
draft boards ‘to induct students
immediately if they try to ob-
struct the draft.” Brewster said,
“] think that it destroys the
notion of military service being
a privilege and an obligation and
not a punishment.” I wonder what
some Negro boy would say about
his privilege to fight for someone
elses-‘‘ freedom” while he doesn’t
have his own, Personally, I feel
there is no obligation on earth
that should require a man to kill
his fellow man,

Whether murder is legalized
or not I will not participate in
U.S. imperialist aggression in
Vietnam or anywhere U.S, troops
will go next to put down a peo
ple’s revolution,

The government and people of
the United States have lost the
revolutionary fever that made
this country the haven for the
oppressed and the greatest nation
on earth, Their only interest is in
getting materially rich, and they
don’t care what country they rape
or how morally prostituted they
become as long as they have
those two cars in the garage
and membership in thebest coun-
try club.

We who are in the protest
movement carry the true tradi-
tion of Americanism as estab-
lished by Sam Asams and the
Sons of Liberty. Henry David
Thoreau when he refused to pay
his income tax to support the
Mexican War, the abolitionists,
the farmer-labor protest of the
late 19th century and the present
day civil rights movement,

A new more humanistic philo-
sophy or party has to evolve
in America to achieve the goals
upon which this country was
founded. Our uni-party system
has to change and fast. It had to
be concerned with the rights of
all its citizens and all the citizens
of the world. Nationalism is an
outmoded concept. What is good
for the U.S, is not always good
for the rest of the world.

The Jazz Review

by Lou Strong

Since November, 1963, there
have been more tributes and me-
morials to John F, Kennedy than
there are critics to review them,
About four months ago, an addi-
tion to the list was made by
Oliver Nelson who wrote a ser-
ies of pieces dedicated and en-
titled, ‘‘A Tribute to John F,
Kennedy.” The pieces them-
selves were inspired by some of
the speeches of the late presi-
dent, and thus, he was able to
capture the essence of Kennedy’s
words in his music,

In more ways than one, this
piece is a truly personal thing
to Oliver, For the day the presi-
dent was assasinated, he and the
majority of the musicians used
on this recording date were re-
hearsing another album. They
were as shocked and hurt as the
rest of the world, When he had
the time, Oliver worked on this
tribute and finally, Verve releas-
ed the final product. The final
product is more than a tribute to
John Kennedy, however. It is a
tribute to jazz, to America and
to Oliver Nelson himself.

It’s a tribute to Mr, Kennedy
because of the very fact that it
is dedicated to him, But what
makes it really a tribute is that
it is one of the few artistic works
that is in any way able to ap
proach the genius of the lost
president.

It’s a tribute to jazz because
Oliver is known as one of the
best composers and arrangers
in jazz as well as a more than
good saxophonist. What’s more,
the piece itself is based on the
jazz idiom (whatever that is, but
we'll talk more about that at a
later date) and the musicians he
used on the date are the best in
the business, Phil Woods, Jer-
ome Richards and many more.

It’s a tribute to America be-
cause only America could pro-
duce a man of Kennedy’s inter-
national stature and then turn
around and produce the creative
genius of Oliver Nelson to pay
tribute to Kennedy in this man-
ner.

It’s a tribute to Oliver him-
self because this is the first
time the world has experienced
the full extent of his enormous
talent, This album is Oliver Nel-
son at his best. He has reached
the pinacle of his profession but
I feel that he will continue to go
up.

The Tribute to John F, Ken-
nedy is more ian a tr
is a testimy: 4 to.
that declary
man ean no }

from existence by an assasin’s
bullet. His memory will live on
through the work of those who
live after him and in him.

After reaaing my column from
last week, I started wondering
whether I was really competent
enough to review a Blues per-
formance, For that matter, just
what is blues and how does it
relate to jazz?

I can’t really answer the ques-
tion concerning my own com-
petence. That’s a question for
my readers to answer, All I
ean do is convey my own opinions
on what is good and-or bad about
a particular performance. There
are times when I will not convey
my opinions, however. When I
am too personally involved with
a particular group of perform-
ers, or if I don’t know as much
about a particular area of per-
formance as I think a good re-
viewer should, then I will keep
my comments to myself.

As far as Blues is concerned,
my knowledge of it extends to the
influence of certain Blues styles
on the jazz idiom, In this light,
and considering my overall back-
ground in music, my degree of
competence will speak for itself.

The definition of Blues has
been tossed around since the so-
called birth of the Blues, Some
say it dates back to the old days
of slavery. Others say that it
really started with the evolution
of old Dixieland and the migra-
tion of Dixieland to the North
(Chicago, for example), The bas-
ic musical definition is, a twelve-
bar melody divided into four
bars of “A,” four bars “B,”
and four bars ‘A’ again, But
this definition is so basic and
general that to depend on italone
as the basis of discussion would
lead to more fallacies than we
can handle, So, I would refer you
to the many excellent books on
the subject that have been put on
the market by men who have
specialized in the Blues,

‘The relation of Blues jazz
is like the relation of breathing
to singing. Over 75 per cent of
the jazz pieces on the market
today make use of the Blues farm
in one way or another. With the
present avant-garde movement
however, musicians have been
trying to get away from the Blues
form, As to the results of their
efforts,. . . well, I leave that to
your own critical ear,

So, we have the basis of the
idea. Blues is an essential part
of jazz and as such, it is a valid
area of criticism for me as a
jazz critic.

Source of Students Factor

in University

by Carl Lindeman

The growth of a University
is reflected, as one of many
factors, in the increasing and
changing source of students ad-
mitted. Academic factors and
sociological factors affect the na-
ture of the curriculum, the stu-
dent activities offered and the
faculty composition,

The recently published ‘‘Re-
port to Guidance Personnel’? of
October 1967 of the State Uni-
versity at Albany examines some
of the changes occurring as are-
sult of our increasing student

dy. .
Compiled by the Office of A.d-
missions, a total of 10,101 appt’
cations were received for the
1966-67 year — a 27.6 per cent
increase from 1965-66. Of those
received, 2,953 Freshmen, 2,-
832 Transfer students and 454
International and non-degree stu-
dents were accepted. In totality
the percentage of Freshmen ac-
cepted increased 37.8 per cent
from 1965-66, of transfer stu-
dents 10.5 per cent and of Inter-
national and non-degree students
11.5 per cent,

One obvious indication of these
statistics is the increasing de-
mand for entrance into the Uni-
versity. But of greater signifi-
cance is what geographic and
social context they are coming
from,

This same question is asked
in the memorandum sent out by
the Chancellor of the State Uni-
versity of New York concerning
future growth of the entire Uni-
versity system. Exactly whatare
the hetereogenous characteris-
ties of the student population and
those which are the homogeneous
aspects of the student population.
Following, what is the impact of
these characteristics of the stu-
dent population on the curricu-
lun, especially in terms of their
pre-college preparation, their
origins geographic andor eco-
nomic, and their social origins.

With the expansion of our finan-

cial aids program in the last few
years the University has opened
the possibilities of a college
education to those formerly ex-
cluded due to financial limita-
tions.
The University now partici-
pates in National Defense Loan
Program, EOG Program, Col-
lege Work ~ Study Program,
NYSHEAC Loan Program and
the Federal Loan Program for
Cuban Students. In addition the
University provides on-campus
employment, scholarships and
emergency short-term loan pro-
grams.

The possibility of further ex-
pansion may allow an even broad-
er hetereogenous composition of

- fit of his Van Heusen ‘'417

the guy to keep an eye on!

students on campus.

Within the same report the ad-
mission centile distribution
shows the local high-school aver-
age for the Freshmen entering
in the fall of this year as 87.9;
their mean Regents average 87.2;
and their mean rank in their
class as the upper 10 per cent.

What this seems to indicate is
that while the social background
of student composition is becom-
ing more hetereogenous, theaca-
demic ability of the student com-~
position is restricting and be-
coming more homogeneous. Con-
trary to some beliefs on campus
it appears that University stan-
dards are not decreasing but in-
creasing.

But what is the impact of these
characteristics of the student
body on curriculum, especially
in terms of their pre-college
preparation and the geographic
origins. One possible answer
Hes in the urban versing rural
school districts.

With an increasing proportion
of students coming from the large

Growth

metropolitan area in and around
New York City the urban schools
are represented more now with-
in the university. The growing
emphasis on the need for better
preparation in high school for
collere life and the greater de-
gree of competiveness of college
life favor the urban school.

The urban schools are better
off financially and strategically
to offer these elements than a
rural high school. The rural high
school is often limited financially
and may be too small in number
to provide a sharp degree of com-
Petition.

Those students who were ad-
mitted from a rural high school
five years ago may not be ma-
terial for admission presently.

These changing elements with-
in the University automatically
affect curriculum and faculty
composition, The importance of
seeing these changes is signifi-
cant therefore. The University,
above all else, must have the
ability to see these changes and
adapt to them.

AContemporary Tale: Lack of Interaction

by Fredda Jaffee

I should like to preface this
contemporary fairy tale with a
rational explanation: my main ob-
ject is to direct attention to the
glaring lack of faculty-student
interaction, drawing upon both
personal experience and views
of the campus at large.

Try to conjure up a mental
picture of a typical student at a
State University. Struggling
against a bourgeois background
and an even bleaker future, she
is determined, in the face of all
adversity, to rise above her sur-
roundings and scale the heights
of Olympus.

She would cringe to be classi-
fied under the species ‘atypi-
cal,” secure as she is in her
delusion of herself as a blatant
individual. ‘*Mediocrity just isn’t
my bag,” is one of her pet
“pearls of wisdom.” While not
an active participator in campus
events, she will feign apathy.
considering herself actively ine
different. She refuses to be am-
pushed into agreeing that college
is great for finding a mate, pre-
ferring to view her education as
a vehicle which will carry her
into the realm ofher lofty aspira-
tions, however obscure they may
seem at the moment.

And so our heroine, through a
logical sequence of events, finds
a desolate lack of inspiration in
her intellectual pursuits. It was
initially surprising to note that
after a less - than - grueling
semester of undergraduate
courses, she had actually di-

gressed, She was alarmed with
the amount of busy work pro-
duced: papers hastily composed
to the tune of glossing over the
relevant details. Her five intro
ductory courses, totally unrelat-
ed and extremely disappointing,
forced her to turn toward other
areas in her quest. She con-
veniently scoffed at Dean’s List
as an illusion; an appeasement
for the pluggers and grinds,

Eureka! In utter desperation
she sought out her sagacious,
wizened professors, whose re-
servoirs of knowledge had been
painstakingly amassed.

Allow me to interpolate for the
sake of clarity; the schism be-
tween students and faculty is a
reciprocal fault, aided and abet-
ted by our less-than-ivy-covered
establishment, _ under-hallowed
history, impractical regulations,
and even food service. At any
rate, our State student invited an
impressive mentor to join her in
partaking a delectable dinner.

The experience was exhilarat-
ing. This may have been accome
plished by an overdose of sau-
turne, the flickering lights, or
puzzled contemporaries who eyed
her askance. But for a few pre-
cious moments, she was trans-
formed, conversing on an ine
tellectual level, encouraging an
exchange of suggestions and re-
flections,

At the risk of melodramatic
overtones, I hope that such valu-
able and exciting experience will
be geared towards a wider appli-
cation.

Council Does It Again

It’s a fact. Central Council did a very
stupid thing. It approved a budget for
Young Americans for Freedom, a def-
inite political group. Until now it has
only been unwritten precedent which pre-
vented such political groups from ob-
taining a budget.

This seems to point out two very ba-
sic questions. Firstly, how did it hap-
pen now and, secondly, why wasn’t this
precedent written down sooner sO that
this could never occur?

The second question seems easier to
answer than the first. Until a specific
case arises, it is often difficult to en-
vision the situation. That is not impor-
tant now. What is important is that the
mistake be corrected.

The only thing to do is to rescind
the Y.A.F. budget and then formulate
a specific bill to’ say that no political
or religious group may receive funds
from Student Association. This can be
done but we are back to the basic prob-
lem. Why did this happen?

There are only two reasons: ignor-
ance or negligence on the part of every
person or group who saw this budget.
If the members of Finance Committee
or Central Council did not know that
Y.A.F, was a political group, they should
have asked. If they did know, they should
have reasoned that one particular group
should not get a budget if another of the
Same nature such as SDS does not re-
ceive the same.

The problem seems to be that every-
one is so afraid of hurting their image

that they fear looking stupid in the eyes
of others. It’s too bad that Council mem-
bers don’t feel free to speak up or can’t
or won’t because they don’t know enough
to say anything. :

At the evaluation session a few weeks
ago someone suggested that Council mem-
bers don’t ask enough questious. At the
time the statement seemed a little ri-
diculous, but now it seems a little too
true.

There was almost no discussion on
the Y.A.F, budget. The point is, there
should have been. The basic issue was
entirely missed. Council members, how-
ever, can not blame just themselves. Most
will probably reason that Finance Com-
mittee should be enough aware of its
objectives to have screened a group op-
posing one of its criteria of eligibility
for funds.

There was once a statement passed
by Finance Committee which did say that
no partisan group should receive Stu-
dent Association funds. Why didn’t the
Committee know of this policy. Council
should be able to rely on its sub-groups
for some information. Even so, it shouldn’t
have happened.

It’s too bad this had to happen so the
opponents of the basic system can grasp
at one ineptness for criticism, but Coun-
cil members themselves must criticize
their own organization. This mistake
will undoubtedly have been corrected but
let’s awaken some student government
members.

Rough Draft

The draft may, or may not be vital
to the Nation’s military; the military
may, or may not be vital to the Nation’s
survival. Unfortunately, there has not
been enough practical application of either
to tell.

One thing vital to’ the Nation is the
people. Suddenly, many people are being
oppressed by the draft which was ulti-
mately designed for their protection.
Lately the draft, with the urgings of Gen-
eral Hershey, has becomea punitive meas-
ure designed to ‘get those guys.’

We abhor the idea of making someone
fight simply because they have express-
ed a wish not too. We support those who

will not fight for something they are not
morally committed to. If there were more
people with this attitude inthe world, there
might be less need for conscription to
save the Nations.

We not only support these people but
the reforms presently facing Congress
which would take initiatory steps to end
conscription, in favor of a voluntary
system.

More importantly we urge changes in
the classification procedure so that more
people asking for <deferments as con-
scientious objecto be given this
classification.

Notes from the Movement

by Peter Pollak £ditor, ALBANY LIBERATOR

According to an article in a
September issue of New Left
Notes, the SDS newspaper, the
University is working on an Air
Force grant in ‘modification of
environment,” which is part of
“Project Themis,’ a larger De-
partment of Defense program.

(Project Themis was funded in
1967 for approximately $27 mil-
lion in approximately 42 univer-
sity research centers “to de-
velop more centers of excellence
in engineering and other hard
sciences.””

‘Although we were unable to dis-
cover if the above mentionedpro-
ject actually exists on this Uni-
versity campus, we did come
across a Navy grant given to
the Atmospheric Science Re-
search Center for ‘tatmospher-
ic electrical studies.”

The research on this project
deals with cloud electricity and
weather conditions, and accord-
ing to one source does not have
anything to do directly with wea-
ponry or chemical-biological
warfare.

(Army FieldManual 3-10, The
Employment of Chemical and Bio-
logical Agents,’ says: ‘The de-
cision to employ lethal or in-
capacitating . . . agents is a
matter of national policy. When
the decision is made, US...
commanders will receive through
command channels the authority
to use such agents and specific
guidance in their use.’*)

The study of weather condi-
tions can have peaceful as well
as military implications. For ex-
ample, the use of defoliates and
herbicides in Vietnam depends
on knowledge of how weather
conditions will affect these wea-
pons.

Professors and students may
be appalled at the use of chem-
ical warfare in Vietnam without
ever considering that the re-
search that made these weapons
possible was carried out ontheir
campuses.

(Field Manual 3-10 lists three
riot control agents that are now
being used in Vietnam: CS (irri-
tant gas), CN (vomiting gas) and
DM nausea gas).

The students and faculty of Cor-

nell University recently learned
that a special branch of the Uni-
versity had been set up by the
DOD to study counter-insurgency
methods on two off-campus loca-
tions. The University’s name was
being used although no classes
were being taught in these centers
and only a small number of Cor-
nell administrators were even
aware of the existence of these
projects. Does Project Themis
exist on this campus? Or was
the New Left Notes’ article mis-
taken?

(Two Harvard doctors offer-
ed this appraisal on the riot con-
trol agents being used in Viet-
nam: ‘‘The first three groups
to be discussed are incapacitat-
ing but usually non-lethal, al-
though they can kill under cer-
tain circumstances: extremely
high concentration of agent or
highly susceptible victim, suchas
the very young, the very old or
the very sick.’’)

According to the Annual Re-
port of the Faculty Senate and
Senate Councils of the Univer-
sity, the Council on Research
requested publication in the Fac-
ulty Handbook of a trustee reso-
lution ‘that University research
shall be unrestricted as to
the public dissemination of the
conduct, progress and results of
such research.’’

(There are gas masks in the
US for only 1 in 10,000 per-
sons. Accidents involving CBW
research at Army research cen-
ter Fort Detrick in Maryland
have already caused deaths. In
January, 1966 The New York
Times reported that an Austral-
jan soldier wearing a gas mask
during a US offensive action
died of “asphyxiation.””)

Did the Faculty Senate debate
a specific project or merely the
issue of unclassified research?
Did they raise the question of
involvement in DOD programs
the purpose of which might not
be apparent in the details of
one specific grant? These are
questions that should be raised
not only in Faculty Senate and
in the science departments, but
by the entire university commun-
ity.

More CouncilRepresentation?

A guest editorial submitted
by Gary F. Schutte.

The main problem with Central
Council is stagnation; Central
Council should be a forum of
ideas.

Perhaps the best way to alle-
viate this problem would be to
increase the at-large member-
ship on Council by, decreasing
the ratio of one representative
to every 400 students to, say,
one to 300 or less. This would
pump some much needed new
blood into Council.

New blood, or even more blood,
will not necessarily make Council
an effective body; but each new
member brings with him new
ideas—that is to say, his own
ideas.

Why underscore ‘‘new?” As it
now stands, too many of the
members of Council have come
up through the “Commissions
Game.” This fact alone gives
Council two strikes against it
self before it starts. In the first
Place, a person elected to Coun-
cil from a commission is sore-
ly overworked.

To illustrate: an ambitious per-
son might join the staff of the
Albany Student Press, for
example. Before he may hold
a seat on Communications Com-
mission, he must first become a
member of Newsboard, which
means he must first become
an editor or associate editor,
He may then be sent from News-
board to Communications Com-
mien and from there to Coun-
cil.

Add to this basic load the pro-
bability that he will have to serve
on at least one committee on
the commission level and another
on the Council level, and it be-
comes obvious why Council mem-

bers have little to contribute
in the way of fresh ideas.

The second problem with com-
mission representatives on Coun-
cil is that, on the whole, the
person’s ideas have already been
hashed over and either presented
to Council or dismissed. From
the legislation brought before
Council so far this year, it is
apparent that the latter case
prevails.

That is not to say, however,
that commissions should not exist
or have representation on Coun-
cil, The reason for having
commissions, and Council com-
mittees, is so that most of the
work will be performed outside
of Council, thus leaving Council
free to devote its time to ‘‘more
important matters,”

The most important thing
Council will probably work on
this year is the room and board
recommendation, Even with this,
the main part of the recommen-
dation will be drawn up by com-
mittee and then be presented to
Council; thereby leaving Council,
in theory, free to work on other
Policy statements concurrently,

As it now stands, Council
spends most of its time rubber
stamping financial policies sent
to it by finance committee, I
would suggest that this is so
because no one presently on
Council has come up with any-
ee better to do,

ie main argument it
increasing the size of saree a
seems to be that Council would
become too large to operate ef-
fectively. This is afallacy, Coun-
cil need only set restrictions
to limit debate; and considering
the course of much of the de
bate so far this year, that isn’t
sue’. » ‘ad ides

The Right Way

by Robert Iseman

The determination and goals
of U.S, Foreign Policy is one of
today’s most controversial
topics. To many people the most
dist rbing thing about our policy
is not the policy itself, but the
way the Johnson Administration
(and its predecessors) seeks to
justify it.

President Johnson claims that
one of our basic reasons for
fighting in Vietnam is to save
the Vietnamese people from op-
pression. He further states that
we would fight to save other
nations from dictatorial rule.
Why then did we establish the
authoritarian rule of Diem, and
more recently back the govern-
ment of General Ky, whose idol
was Adolf Hitler? If we are to be
consistent in our actions we
should free the Spanish from the
Facist Franco and the Hatians
from their Facist government,

Undoubtedly, U.S. foreign
policy has always had humanis-
tic overtones. Throughout the
years American presidents have
thought it necessary to rational-
ize their foreign policy by making
impassioned pleas for the free-
dom ofthe oppressed, In attempt-
ing to gain support for our actions
we have cloaked our goals in
fallacious garb.

In reality, U.S. Foreign Policy
is primarily resolved by circum-
stance and expediency. Inthe late
thirties and the early forties the

Off Center

by M.J. Rosenberg

One thing must first be made
clear. The university chapter of
the Young Americans for Free-
dom is not much of a threat
to any of us. It is a small,
rather poorly organized campus
activity, and its influence is nil,
State’s YAF’ers are not, for the
most part, volatile right-wing
extremists, They are the kind
of people who clip our DAILY
NEWS editorials and drive a
car with “Support Your Local
Police” stickers on the bumper
and go to war rallies because
they believe that is the way to
help the American Veitnamese
effort, They don’t groan when
‘they hear “Letter to My Teen-
age Son” on the radio but rather
nod their head in solemn agree-
ment with a glazed look in their
eyes. Because they really believe
those things about creeping
socialism, and Communist con-
spiracies, un-American activi-
ties and that J, Edgar Hoover
and his FBI is our last bastion
against international Com-
munism. They honestly think that
they are patriots.

So they are not really a threat
to non-extremists on the campus,
They attract mainly those of
right-wing persuasion anyway.
But they do also attract the
apolitical and the politically
naive. For YAF has wrapped it-
self up in the American Flag and
it is honestly hard to see where
the stripes begin and YAF ends,
Any YAF’er will tell you that
they stand for everything that the
United States does (except per-
haps our last five Presidents),
So it is quite simple to see how
some fellow from Pitkins, New
York, upset at peace demonstra-
tions and Robert Kennedy, can
decide to join YAF which is,
after all, “for our boys.’ But
there is more to YAF than that,

The Young Americans for
Freedom is an extreme right
wing organization. One of its
prime principles is that “the
United States should stress vic
tory over, rather than coexis-
tence with (nternational Com-
munism).” Firstly most Ameri-
cans have come to the conclu-
sion that there just is no such
animal as international Com-
munism; that Communism is
not a monolithic force. But more
important is the fact that these
self-proclaimed patriots are talk-
ing about nuclear war in arather
light vein, They talk about ‘*vic-
tory” but what they mean is
nuclear war. The Atom bomb
does not frighten the stout-heart-
ed men of the YAF and it never

has, They led a nationwide drive
against President Kennedy’s nu-
clear annihiliation as in “the
best interests of the United
States.”

In early 1965, YAF along with
the John Birch Society initiated
a letter-writing campaign that
eventually so intimidated the
Firestone Company that they
abandoned plans to build a plant
in Rumania, Here again we see
the ignorance that is YAF, They
have not yet discovered that there
is a big difference between Ru-
mania and Albania; perhaps the
National Review has not yet no-
ticed the Sino-Soviet schism. So
they sabotage a plan that could
not only bring Rumania closer
to the United States and bring
the fruits of YAF blessed Amer-
ican capitalism to the ‘enslaved
people of Eastern Europe,”
That’s the Young Americans for
Freedom.

One of the household deities
of the YAF is Senator Strom
Thurmond of South Carolina; the
gentle advocate of “freedom and
just law’? for everyone but Ne-
groes and the poor. Thurmond is
a racist and although one hesi-
tates to paint YAF with that
brush the fact is that along with
Reagan, Goldwater and Tower,
the Young Americans for Free-
dom have cheered Strom Thur-
mond many times. In the long
run YAF has achieved little. I
suppose we can just laugh at
them. But I don’t think that we
are yet secure enough to laugh
at any organization that says that
it “supports our GI’s’ and yet
Shrilly advocates a policy that
would have more and more of
them killed. Nor can we laugh
at a well-financed organization
with a program that if ever
adopted by those in power would
Jead to a nuclear holocaust,

The Young Americans for
Freedom is built on a foundation
of fear and invective. SUNYA
students are aware enough not
to become involved with the YAF
but the issue today is not whether
YAF has the right to exist on
this campus, it does, but rather
should it be allotted money by
Central Council. It should not,
Thousands of students did not
pay student fees to support a
Political organization; we must
give aid to no political faction,
At the last meeting of SUNYA’s
YAF chapter, the President made
the suggestion that the YAF burn
a Viet Cong flag and stage a
demonstration ‘just to let the
school know we exist.” Central
Council should not allot one dime

to an organization of such
shallowness; or of so little im-
port that only ten showed for
the meeting. We must strip the
American flag from the YAF
and see it for what it is; a
pro-war, anti-progressive right
wing lobby. The hypocrisy that
is the YAF is aptly demonstra-
ted by the fact that the last
meeting was attended by young,
physically fit, short-haired, clean
and wholesome young Americans
who lust after an American vie-
tory in Vietnam. They see Viet
mam as Armageddon. They call
for escalation which means more
bombs and more men, And yet
they hold their 2S deferments,
THEY don’t return their draft
cards, When our Young Ameri-
cans for Freedom chapter
marches enmass to fight for that
cause they so strongly believe in,
then we can see them as some-
thing more thanabunch of crypto-
patriots. But not until then. . ,

Council members like to raise,
is that students may attend the
regular Thursday night meetings
and speak to the bills on the
floor. This is fine except that
nonmenbers enjoy parliamen-
tary rights, but not the parli-
amentary privileges of introduc-
ing, seconding, or amending bills,

Council is slowly realizing
that this constitution leaves a lot
to be desired, Before too many
members of Council get that
dangerous, “‘irrestible urge’?
to start rewriting, they had
better sit back and take @ good,
long look at the monster they
have created. Two and one half
years have proven that the con-
stitution is workable, but also
that it needs work.

A complete rewriting at this
stage would produce another over
bureaucratic government that
would have just as many defects
as the current one, A logical
course of action might be to
amend the constitution to in-
crease at-large membership,
work with it for another year,
and then decide if it is work
albe,

No constitution is going to work
without the support and involve-
ment of the entire student body;
until Council shows that it is
consistantly working for student

neither involve himself in govern-

most immediate threat to the
security of the U.S., and indeed
the world was Nazism. In re-
sponse to this peril the U.S,
allied herself with her idealogical
antithesis, the Soviet Union. This
unlikely alliance arose from the
needs and circumstances of the
world situation during World War
Il The U,S., out of necessity
compromised her principles to
fight with a Communist country
against the Nazi threat, Today the
main threat no longer comes
from Facist dictators, but Com-
munism.

Consequently, out of expedien-
cy, we have tolerated Facist
governments, regardless of their
oppressive tactics, to thwart the
Communist goal of world domina-
tion. Similarly, we are not fight-
ing in Vietnam for the freedom
of the Vietnamese, but to halt
Communist agression. We are
fighting in Vietnam for the U.S.A.,
not for the Vietnamese. Our goals
and motives are selfish and
fostered by the desire for

Phdo not find fault with th
o not find tau
policy. I believe “that American

Foreign Policy must be judged by
this criterion: Does it serve the
just interests of the U.S,?” (from
YAF Sharon Statement). How-
ever, I am extremely irratated
by the sight of Johnson or Rusk
telling the world that we are fight-
ing to save an oppressed people.
Why doesn’t the Administration
stop making excuses and tell the
public that we are merely follow-
ing the course most advantageous
for America. Iam sure more peo-
ple would support the war if
they thought they were being told
wie truth about it.

Instead, the present Adminis-
tration has caused suspicion and
discontent by trying to conceal the
aims of our policy. I believe that
the American people would accept
our policy of expediency as neces-
sary and just. More importantly,
by talking truthfully with its con-
stituency, the Administration

could create new confidence in

Review Of The New Right Wing

by Ray Bertrand

Because of the existence of
many channels of communication,
today’s Americans take the
chance of acquiring faulty in-
formation. In order toseektruth,
we must ask, I would like to know
just what a democratic society is.

Is a democratic society one in
which college students play the
role of part-time political experts
and attempt to impose on a na-
tion actions prompted by their
Political beliefs, beliefs which
come about after intense analyza-
tion of Allen Ginsburg’s poems?
Or is a democratic society one
in which a majority of people
elect representatives more com-
petent than themselves, and both
majority and minority, previous-
ly agreeing, accept the decisions
of these representatives as laws
for the good of the whole? Is a
democratic society one in which
people who disagree with the
majority drop out of the society
in order to tune in to another,
so they can fink-out of reality by
turning-on with drugs? Or is a
democratic society one in which
people who disagree campaign in
an orderly manner to get their
views heard?

Is a democratic society one
which would rather smoke its
lawns than mow them? Isademo-
cratic society one which follows
the biblical traditions of peace
and love, but overlooks the state-
ment that they will earn their
bread by the sweat oftheir brow?
Is it one where members act as
parasites to the harder working
members of the society, rather
than earning this bread? Does
this new democratic society for-
get that in all other societies,

marriage is an institution? Or
does this democratic society pro-
pose the institutionalization of
free love, and the rewarding of a
bonus to mothers of illegitimate
children in the form of a greater
income tax deduction?

Can a democratic society actu-
ally believe that a nation doesn’t
need defense? When it encour-
ages draft card burning, does it
think that if every male partici-
pated in this action that the Unit-
ed States could survive for long?
Does a democratic society need
an artificial stimulus to see
reality? Can it not look at the
world and examine what it sees?
Is a tree any more of a tree, just
because a person is on a trip?

Does a democratic society ad-
vocate terror to accomplish its
goals? Does it feel that fire is
actually the way toerase bigotry?
Can it think that looting and mur-
der will win it admiration? Can
it be so brainwashed to think that
noble, but unrealistic concepts of
peace and love can afford it pro-
tection from aggressive, belli-
gerent nations?

Idealism is not the answer.
Love will never stop a bullet.
Rioting will never gain respect
for anyone, These advocates of
a democratic society are fortun-

— ate that they live in the United

States. For I fear that in Russia
or China today, tulips and poppy
seeds would not afford them with
an adequate shield. Brave new
worlds of dissent do not exist
unless they are allowed to, Ideal-
ism. never triumphs’ over
realism, When it has been de-
feated, idealism is lost until it
may be found once more, by mis-
fits in a democratic society.

COMMUNICATIONS

Objects Objectors

To the Editor;

I am submitting the following
communication in reference to
the letter headed, “Objects ‘Ob-
jector’ *?, I would like to have
this letter be received with the
understanding that it has been
an attempt to try to reaffirm
the humanity of all us in the
present state of affairs (mess)
in which we seem to find our-
selves. 3

In their letter which appeared
on December 1, Miss Kendig and
Miss Issac stated that, “The
people who are fighting for the
Good are in Vietnam. The GOOD
IN OUR COUNTRY.” I wonder
if it is possible to answer the
question, ‘‘Who is fighting for
the Good?’’ so easily. ‘Let us
cast off judgemental attitudes
for a moment. Let us be will-
ing to attempt to establish who
is truly fighting for the Good,
Only those who are willing to
affirm that HUMAN BEINGS ARE
MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANY-
THING ELSE can claim to be
fighting for the Good. And let
us remember that both the Ameri-
can soldier who is disabled for
life or perhaps killed and the
Viet Cong whom he is trying to
kill are human beings, Only those
who are willing to see the folly
of divorcing policies from mor-
ality—a failing common to both
some hawks and some doves—
can have a valid claim to the
Good. Only those whose basic
concern is the welfare of the hu-
man beings involved in the Viet-
namese war can claim tobe fight-
ing for the Good. And let us re-
member that the human beings in-
elude American soldiers, South
Vietnamese and North Viet
namese. Only those who are in-
terested in relieving the suffer-
ing caused by the present war
can claim to be fighting for the
Good, Only those who are willing
to maintain these attitudes can
claim to be fighting for the Good,
Only by maintaining these atti-
tudes will we be able to serve
our country in truth, for it is
only these attitudes that can give
her goals worthy of attaining,

Walter John Clark
Cutty Replies
To the Editor:

1 wish at this time to reply to
Fred Penzel’s letter that was
printed in the ASP of November
17. I do this simply because si-
lence would be construed as an
acceptance of Mr. Penzel’s
charges as factual,

Penzel feels that television
cannot produce art, Obviously he
knows little of its history. But a
few years ago the names of Chay-
efsky, Rose and Sterling dom-
inated televisiondrama, and their
teleplays and the TV writings of
others have been acclaimed as
masterful treatments of pertinent
American themes,

I really could care less wheth-
er or not Penzel approves of the
subjects I write about, Ifhe wish-
es to read TV Guide this is his
own personal decision to make,

Further, to refute another of
Penzel’s accusations, the fact
that I dislike most of the new
(and old, incidentally) shows
presently on the air @s my writ-
ings indicate) is ample proof
that the majority of my time is
not wasted in watching anyone’s
**hoob-tube.””

I have never yet reviewed a
Broadway play the new theatre
season. My second column dis-
cussed, rather, the opening of
this season, and I used the gener-
al comments of all three New
York City newspaper drama cri-
tics to discuss the shortcomings
and merits of the first Broadway
and off-Broadway productions of
the year,

True, I emphasized Clive
Barnes? comments more than
those of the other two reviewers
but simply because Mr, Barnesis
the superior critic. If Penzel
really wishes to publicly accuse
me of plagiarism, let me remind
him that he would have to pro-
duce solid evidence to support
this libelous smear,

Lastly, I never discussed the

motion picture “Camelot.” In
stead, prompted by the N.Y.C.
opening of that picture, I dis-
cussed the reasons for the failure
of the play ‘‘Camelot’? and sim-
ply stated my hope that the mo-
tion picture would not be burden-
ed down with the Broadway ver-
sion’s mistakes,

And, since Penzel felt lofty and
eloquent enough to call the en-
tire arts section of the paper a
failure, I will add that if Penzel
doesn’t like this section of the
paper no one is begging him to
read it,

The arts columnists of the
ASP are all quite grateful that the
editors have given us the rela-
tive freedom to write what we
want to, on whatever subjects
are of immediate interest to us.

Penzel’s letter was a disgust-
ing slap at these two persons,
Sara Kittsley and Linda Berdan
(the latter chiefly responsible
for the arts pages, and doing a
commendable job, too).

I feel that Penzel’s attack was
as trivial and worthless as he
claims this year’s arts section
to be. We of the ASP know weare
not a “Great Metropolitan News-
paper.’? Does Penzel still think
he’s in high school, or does he
realize that this paper is distri-
buted to a collegiate audience?

Considering the paucity of Pen-
zel’s accusations, it would be
only fair to insist that before
he tells the arts columnists of
the ASP how to write he should
first learn how to read,

Before I begin, some words
of explanation would be in order;
Aalborg, Aalst, aardvard, aard-
wolf. That should do, if we over-
look the fact that nothing at all
was said before I began. They
were in order nonetheless. You
may be curious as to where this
all began, and with good reason.
Then I shall explain. While I sat
in the snack bar reading the ASP
last Friday it all hit me, Several
slabs of plaster and a very per-
ceptive observation, from the
ceiling and my mind respective-
ly. I shall concern ourselves
only with the latter for the mean-
time. It was there in black and
white. Sixteen pages of articles,
letters, ads and pictures done
by everybody (but my brother)
and his brother, This I found
hard to believe, but having con-
tributed nothing to the paper, I
managed. (I might mention at
this point that you must have
better things to do).

Getting back, I then asked my-
self; “Myself,” I asked, ‘what
is a student publication without
something by me??? ThenI looked
once again at the ASP. I then
Trepeated the question to myself
(a bit louder) only to find myself
looking down at the ASP. I very
politely said to the newsprint
sitting in front of me: ‘You
realize of course that you are
begging the question.” This
rather clever rejoinder quickly
renewed my self-confidence, as I
shoved the entire incident into
the entrails of my mind. Now,
what have we learned from this?
Probably that I should have dis-
cussed the plaster, not to men-
tion the ceiling (too late — I al-
ready did). All this brings to
mind a favorite anecdote of the
late President Fillmore. I hard-
ly have time to mention it here,
however,

Many people have asked me
“What is HOKBOKI anyway???
Many people have written to me
and asked, ‘Just what is
HOKBOKI anyhow?? To these
people and also to those who may
not care, I will say only this: It
is a translation of an old trans-
literated Arabic idiomatic ex-

pression, the translation of which
loses too much of the original
meaning to make it worth going
into at length. But say it back
wards enough to a friend, and

might get you a glass of

water. But let me stop here.

The Student Entertainment
Committee of Hamilton College
has scheduled the Second Annual
Northeastern Intercollegiate
Folk Festival for the weekend
of February 2nd and 3rd. Stu-
dent performers from any ac-
credited Northeastern College,
Junior College or University are
welcome.

Last year 24 groups repre-
senting 13 colleges in three states
participated. An audience of 800
‘was on hand for the finals of the
competition. This year we antici-

| pate 40 to 50 groups fromat least

20 colleges and an audience of
at least 1,500.

Over $400 in prize money will
be offered for the five top groups,
including $150 for the first place
group, $100 for second place,
$75 for third place, and two
honorable mention awards of $50
each.

Eliminations will take place
Friday evening and Saturday dur-
ing the day with the ten best
groups performing in the finals
at eight o’clock Saturday night
in the Hamilton Alumni Gymnas-
ium, Accommodations will be
made available for all partici-
pants (at no cost to the perform-
ers) on both nights if necessary.

Contemporary folk music in-
cludes a wide range of styles
and instrumentation. In order
to set some guidelines for the
competition, we have decided not
to allow any electronic instru-
ments.

The finals will be judged by
five professionals including Bry-

Hamilton To Stage
Second Folk Festival

by Robert B. Cutty

Elmer Rice’s play, ““The Adding Ma-
chine,’ is the second State University
Theatre production of the 1967-68 sea-
son. The 1923 expressionist drama is
being staged by Martin Mann of the Dept.
of Speech and Dramatic Art for an 8:30
p-m., Wednesday, December 13 opening.

The play is being co-produced jointly
by the S.U.T, and by the Hawley Tele-
vision Studio, where the experiment
in mixed media will be presented. Direc-
tor Mann stated that the three television
monitors to be mounted in the ‘‘theatre’’
will be used to visualize the internal
thoughts of the lead character, Mr. Zero.

Mann suggested that Zero is ‘‘the uni-
versal slave type,’’ dominated more by
the laws of society than by the command-
ments of Fate. In this example of ex-
pressionism, the curious combination of
tragedy and comedy is meant to show the
helpless alienation of Zero and his
farcically pathetical condition in life.

The various questions that are raised
in the play, (as man’s grotesque state in

arranger and former lead sing-
er of the Serendipity Singers.
He is currently associated with
the Bitter End Cafe in Green-
wich Village, and is a partner
in Sennett-Weintraub, Inc., an
artist’s representative organiza-
tion which presently manages
the Serendipity Singers, among
others. Sennett-Weintraub is also
the talent coordinating and de-
velopment agency for the new
Coffee-House Circuit program
which is now functioning on 60
College campuses in the East-
ern United States.

The preliminary eliminations
will be open to the public at no
charge. Tickets will be avail-
able for the finals in advanceand
at the door for $1 and $1.50 per

eae

history, the inability of people to com-
municate, the social demands of individual
conformity, and the indifference of God
to humanity’s troubled existence in the
Universe) were felt by Mann to be perti-
nent to modern audiences.

The staging of ‘‘The Adding Machine’
will be as revolutionary as the play’s
theme appears to be commonplace. In
addition to employing television, Mann
has broken with theatrical conventions
by a bold, modernistic expansion of the
traditional staging area.

Scott Regan will play the part of the
doomed Zero, and Karen Prete has been
cast in all three female leads. Explain-
ing this triple-casting, Mann stated that
Miss Prete will enact the roles of all
those women with whom Zero has some
sort of love relationship.

Mrs. Zero is the marriage-object, the
nagging wife. Daisy. Diana Dorethea De-
vore is the pure or ideal love object,
for whom Zero is never able to express
his feelings (just as Zero would never
dare tell his wife of his contempt for
her). The sex-dream object is Judy O’-
Grady, whom Zero can only think about.

Willian Snyder is also cast in several
roles. He will portray the boss, a police-
man, the trial judge, and Charles, all
persons who act as authority figures
in positions of dominance over Zero.
Edward Kramer will be seen as Shrdlu,
whom Zero meets in the Elysian Fields.

The other cast members include G,
Maggio, G, Carr, H. Kerner, F. Penzel,
A. Bennett, T. Brennan, D. Saucke, N.
Miller, W. McNair, B, Richards, G, Sla-
vin, A, Murray and M. Bono. Freda
Scott is handling the chores of the stage
manager, Barbara Weinstein is assistant
director.

Sets have been designed by Robert
Donnolly; with Jerome R, Hanley’s light-
ing, the over-all technical aspect of the
production will further emphasize Mann’s
uncommon staging. Arleen DuMond de-
signed the costumes and masks. Theodore
L. Glazer is credited with the eye-catch-
ing programs and posters.

Films

by Dave Bordwell

Although this week promises
to be a good one for area films
(see below), last one was un-
usually thin. So those seeking
the usual infuriating commentary
are warned: no big review this
column, just idle (and possibly
more infuriating) chat.

In retrospect, a healthily crea-
tive cinema year: There was the
usual quantity of rubbish, both
elegant (‘‘A Man and a Woman,’?
“You're a Big Boy Now,’ “Night
Games,” ‘Ulysses”’) and grubby
(“The Dirty Dozen,” ‘Quiller
Memorandum,” ‘Oh Dad, Poor
Dad,” “You Only Live Twice”).

More interesting was the sur-
prising amount of respectable
and original work: ‘‘Accident,’?
“Bonnie and Clyde,” ‘Loving
Couples,” “Dutchman,” ‘War
Game,” ‘Cool Hand Luke,”
“Crazy Quilt,’’ even (a real sur-
prise) Donen’s “Two for the
Road’? — all films cinematical-
ly inventive, personally envision-
ed, and, unlike the movies men-
tioned earlier, at bottom inter-
ested in the delectable varieties
of human nature. Finally, though
T have not seen ‘‘Au Hasard Bal-
thasar” and the latest Godards,
I think that this year I have
seen four films that are undoubt-
able masterpieces.

Resnais’ ‘La Guerre Est Fin-
ie” is one. In this picture his
classical style, formerly spent
exploring static situations, coale
esces with a story of sufficient
nuance and substance to create
his warmest and most affecting
film. Bergman’s ‘‘Persona’’
moves him even further into that
terrain mapped out by Dreyer
40 years ago; ‘‘Persona” is an
agnostic’s ‘*Passion of Joan of
Arc.” Bergman has strippedcin-
ema down to a rigorous austerity
where every frame is necessary;
he is as architectonically bril-
liant as his beloved Bach. And
like Bach he must be approach-
ed by his own rules.

In “Blow-Up” Antonioni enters
Godard’s murderous world of Pop
Culture and creates a film reson-

ating with rhythms the screen
has never before presented.

Though I thought the flows pro-
gressively more offensive at ev-
ery viewing, the vision remain-
ed. No film has told us more
about modern life than ‘Blow-
Up.”

“Falstaff” is the most good-
humored and exhilirating film
Welles has made—a theatrical
picture only in that it is play-
ed on a larger-than-life scale.
It will endure with ‘‘Throne of
Blood’? as the cinema’s most
evocative renderings of Shakes-

peare, and the ones peua..ts would
call least ‘‘faithful.’?

One notable disappointment
was  Truffaut’s ‘Fahrenheit
451.” Full of cinematic brilliance
and that relaxed warmth remin-
iscent of Renoir, the movie fails
to satisfy, perhaps because of
the Hollywood gloss and the weak
stery line. (Truffaut is current-
ly filming a thriller, “‘The Bride
Wore Black,’’ which makes me
wish he would return to the emo-
tional source of ‘The 400 Blows’*
and ‘Jules and Jim.’ Of the two
sides we saw of him in “Shoot
the Piano Player’? — human
warmth and stylistic trickiness
— I’m afraid the latter is going
to win out.)

Some unsolicited remarks:
Looking over what I have written
so far for the ASP and resee-
ing some of the films I have
discussed have led me to two
corrections — First, I now
believe I overrated “The Fam-
ily Way,’’ in that I allowed its
genuine concern and respect for
human values to outweigh its
tendency to mawkishness and
some serious difficulties in
plausibility.

More importantly, I now think
that upon my first seeing of
“The War Game,” the merits
of the film were so striking
that I slighted its major fault
— a repetitive, interpolated
preachiness. Upon another view-
ing, this fault is more obtensive,
but the film’s overall impact is
not lessened, I still think it one
of the most skillful, imaginative,
and moving films of recent years.

Enough nonsense. This week at
the movies: Coincidentally, Pet-
er Watkins’ two most controver-
sial films are currently playing
in the Albany area. His recent
“Privilege,” an all-out attack
on Church and Establishment,
is at the Cinema Art Theatre on
River Street in Troy. Watkins’
“War Game” is presently show-
ing at the Cinema Delaware with
Stanley Kubrick’s ‘Dr. Strange.
love’? — an unfortunate com.
bination, I think, which results
in a sort of audience overkill.
But Strangelove’s nose-thumb-
ing has not lost its gusto, and
for the academic community,
“The War Game” is required
viewing.

By the way, following these
at the Delaware is Joseph Los-
ey’s ‘Accident,’ which contains
the best duo-performance I have
seen this year: Dirk Bogarde
and Stanley Baker as Oxford dons
enmeshed in the subtle pressure
of Academe. More on this
remarkable picture next week.

Protiles in the Performing Arts

by John Webb

Amusing? Provocative? What adjective can de-
scribe music such as that performed in the Music
Department’s Twentieth Century concert last
Thursday? Can one really find any sort of univer-
sal or proper adjective? I think not. Such art
truly defies description, and absolutely defies criti-
cism, and I do not mean this in any derogatory
sense whatsoever . . . For many many years,
music and art have fallen into the realm of liter-
ature when being described or criticized. This
cannot be done with the contemporary, because as
yet I believe that the majority of music listeners
have been unable to find any terms (literary
that is) for expressing their emotions or reac-
tions, and consequently their criticism.

It is a form of the art for which, at least at
present, we must sit back, listen, and let what-
ever reaction that may come come, and not try
to analyze it, The secret to gaining an under-
standing or appreciation certainly is not found
by walking out as so many did!

I was really tickled to see the reactions of
a few elderly or middle-aged men and women
who attended. As I sat down before curtain, I
saw that they had obviously dolled out to come
fo State University for a fine faculty concert.
At that time I wondered what they were going
to think, because they did not know what they
were in for. Well, they sat resolutely for a
while, they twitched etc., but their piece of cake
came after intermission when I guess the ‘Sound
Synthesizer”? got to be too much for them, and
wey left.

To open the concert, the faculty chose a piece
entitled ‘For Franz Kline’ by Morton Feldman.
Written in 1962, it calls for French horn, piano,
chimes, soprano voice, violin and cello. William
Hudson conducted, and to fill the instrumental
spots were Joel Chadabe on the chimes; Laurence
Farrell, piano; Daniel Nimetz, French horn; violin
Marvin Morgenstern and cello, John Goberman
(two members of the American String Trio);
and Marjory Fuller, soprano voice.

The most outstanding feature of this was, of
course, the voice part which was so admirably
performed by Miss Fuller. Without any help from
the instrumentalists, she had to enter on dis-
Sonant notes, singing odd interval etc., all ter-
ribly difficult and requiring terrific sense of tone.
it was truly an accomplishment.

the opening together, and then Chadabe got up,
walked to the front of the piano and proceeded
to pluck the strings as Cockrell played. They
Played together again, and then Cockrell pluck-
ed the strings. The sound produced and its qual-
ity, through the use of fast trills, were extremely
full and dynamic. Cockrell’s finesse of touch
shone through, and I must say that I do hope to
hear more of Chadabe at the keyboard. I doubt
that half of the students here even knew what he
Played at all.

The American String Trio, our artists in resi-
dence, then came on to perform “string Trio,
Opus 20” by Anton von Webern. It was enjoyable
and interesting to watch their concentration in
Producing the sounds and syncopation required
by this number. They had to play, pluck the
strings, and tap their bows, sometimes in such
rapid succession that I could seldom follow them.

Following the intermission, the film ‘House’
was to be shown, but because of technical diffi-
culties they were forced to postpone that. Instead,
a tape, ‘The Sound Synthesizer”? was Played. A
Second tape, ‘‘Events,” by Mel Powell was run
which featured electronic sounds and three voices
using Hart Crane’s “Legend” as a text.

For a very appropriate closing, Chadabe’s own
creation “Street Scene’? was played, using as a
background, slides by William Clark from the
Art department, and Patricia Grignet on the
English horn. The tape by Chadabe incorporated
electronic sounds as well as insertions of jazz or
other familiar noises that we hear each day.
He also used a highly familiar voice reading a
text by Lawrence Ferlinghetti, ““The Long Street,’*
Tt was very interesting, and considerable credit
should go to Chadabe who has put his talents to
use both in this and with the drama department,

say. It was an experience, and I came away feel-
ing very glad that I had Participated. ( I believe

Textiles Termed Exciting;
Center’s Needed Touch

by Gail Sefian

A burst of exciting color has
come to the Campus Center
Gallery, spilling over joyfully
into the entire lobby, and even
wrapping itself about Minerva,
It is the work of Mrs. Symy-
oung Yook Minn, a freelance
textile designer from Troy.

‘Mrs, Minn, who has been call-
ed ‘a dainty Jackson Pollock,’
uses emotional expressionism to
convey her impressionistic de-
signs to cloth, On a canvas of
velveteen or corduroy, she hand-
paints her designs, washing the
fabries afterward to produce a
subtle blend of colors. Three
of the pieces were done by a silk
sereen process, The wall - hang-
ing, which she wove herself, is
a very interesting piece, with
much twisting and turning of
threads to produce unusual pat-
terns.

Mrs. Minn came to this coun-
try from Korea in 1961, after
graduating with honors from the
College of Fine Arts of Seoul
National University, In New
York City she studied at the
Fashion Institute of Technology
and now designs textiles for a
New York dress manufacturer,

Mrs, Minn uses'the bright col-
ors and oriental motifs of Korea
often in her designs, One piece
of material, which is draped art-
fully over the balcony, bears
an abstraction of a Korean lion’s
head motif. Her colors are warm
and vibrating, her forms free
and flowing. In the use of the

The Spectator
A View of the Arts

by Robert B.Cutty

Two weeks ago, a play died of
exhaustion. Last week, the finan.
cial post-mortem was officially
released. I’d like at this time to
review this disaster, ‘‘The Apple
Tree,’ since a closing isas good
a time to review a play as is
an opening.

“The Apple Tree’? was a mu-
sical by Jerry Bock and Sheldon
Harnick, with music by the form-
er while the latter provided the
lyrics. Bock and Harnick have
previously written ‘Fiorello’
(which won a Pulitzer Prize),
“Tenderloin” (a failure), ‘She
Loves Me” (another flop), and
“Fiddler on the Roof’? (their
only smash hit success).

This musical was in three
acts, The first, ‘The Diary of
Adam and Eve’ (time: Satur-
day, June 1st; place; Eden), was
based onthe novel by Mark Twain.
Act two was a musical adaptation
of Frank R, Stockton’s short
story, ‘‘The Lady or the Tiger?”?
and act three a musical version
of Jules Feiffer’s ‘‘Passionella.’”

Stuart Ostrow, whom fate chose
to be the unlucky producer who
would present this unlikely trium-
virate to Broadway audiences,
cast Alan Alda, Barbara Harris,
and Larry Blyden in the three
main roles (each similar) of each
of the three one-act musicals.
Each act tended to vary in over=
all quality.

Certain general comments,
however, can be made about all
three acts (each an entirely dif-
ferent musical related to the two
others only through the repeated
theme of love).

Alda was on the whole pretty
awful: his Adam was totally dull;
his portrayal of the princess’ lov-
er in ‘Lady or Tiger?’ was barely
noticeable; as Flip in ‘*Passion-
ella’? he was awkwardly, ama-
teurishly grotesque.

Barbara Harris won the Tony
(Broadway’s Oscar) as “best

Fourth Time Around

by Igor Koroluk

As promised ‘Country Joe
and the Fish’? have released
their second album ‘I Feel Like
I’m Fixin’ to Die’? (Vanguard)
this time complete witha “‘Fish’’
game and directions for playing.
Fortunately, for me (see my
column on their first album)
they are as non-commercial, ir-
religious and beautiful as ever.

There is no big change instyle;~
they are still playing what I
call ‘Jade East’? music; a sort
of conglomeration of soulful blues
and hard rock, heavily impreg-
nated with oriental sounds which
gives many of their instrumental
tracks a wavy, trickling, bam-
boo rainforest feeling. Now, if
you can get anything out of that,
congratulations — if you can’t,
watch a Jade East commercial
(or better yet, listen to one.)

The number which will hit you
right away is “I Feel Like I’m
Fixin’ to Die - Rag,’’ beginning
with the ‘‘fish cheer.” In the tra-
dition of ‘‘Superbird’’ this proves
to be an outrageously hilarious
satirical song on Vietnam done
in a ricky-tick jug band style
complete with calliope, They joy-
ously proclaim to parents: ‘‘Be
the first one on your block -
To have your boy come home in
a box.’’ “Who am.I,’’ mean-
while, is a pleading search for
identity, In ‘*Rock Coast Blues’
Joe McDonald proves convinc-
ingly that he can sing blues with
the best. ‘*Magoo” begins with
what sounds like a crash of
thunder followed by rain, but as
it continues you become fright-
eningly aware that bombs are
dropping, giving an ironic twist
to what would be an ordinary
love ballad, ‘Janis,’’ the single
off the album, is quite a pleas-
ant song which I doubt will ever
hit the top ten,

If you listen closely you will
find the unlabeled ‘Acid Com-
mercial’? and “Bomb Song” on
the second side, As far as I’m
concerned the best track on the

Tecord, even if they are tre-
mendous lyricists, is the in-
strumental ‘Eastern Jam,”
slightly reminiscent of Paul
Butterfield’s ‘‘East-West,””

If you get a chance, I suggest
you visit the library soon, They
have a room on the second floor
called the listening room with
all these beautiful turntables,
they even give you earphones
to listen, Suggestion — bring
your own records (stereo) and
turn the volume all the way up
(gradually). What an exhilerating
feeling to have the music actual-
ly within your head,

“Blood, Sweat and Tears’’
played the scene in NYC over
the Thanksgiving holidays and
reports are really good for Al
Kooper’s new group. The or-
ganization sports an extensive
horn line: trumpets, sax and
trombone, and is playing some-
where between jazz and rock —
actually a combination of both,

started slow because of the small
dimensions of the club, but
when they adjusted, they were

formance in ‘The Apple Tree.?*

As the princess in the second
act, Miss Harris was robust and
forceful, the passionate, lustful,
royal heroine of literary fame.
As ‘Passionella’? she was lit-
erally beautiful, graceful and
stately in her role and blessed
with an unbelievably adroit sense
of comic timing.

Larry Blyden played the Snake
in ‘Diary’ (in dark tuxedo), a
sarcastic balladeer in ‘Lady or
Tiger,’ and the narrator of ‘Pas-
sionella.’’ It was simply refresh-
ing to see him steal scene after
scene as he leisurely pranced,
strolled, and paced about on the
stage.

The first act was unbearably
long and too seriously concerned
with developing the theme that
love between men and women
has always been too subtle to
be completely understood in all
it simple yet complex ramifica-
tions.

Yet there were several very
funny moments in ‘‘The Diary of
Adam and Eve.’? When Eve is
naming all the animals in Eden,
she describes Adam as stupid,
lazy and apathetic and then sud-
denly cries out, ‘‘Of course,
he’s a man!’?

After Adam and Eve have
“married” she continually at-
tempts to force him to work to
improve the appearance of their
home. Starting the conversation,
Eve says, ‘Adam, I think the
grass around our house should
be different from the rest of the
grass.’? Adam asks. ‘Different
—how?”? Eve replies, ‘‘Shorter.’?

However, much of the better
material in the firstact may have
been taken straight out of Twain’s
vindictively wry novel. In the
second act, little that was said
was really interesting at all.
“The Lady or the Tiger’? was

Decking the Campus Center Gallery with color which spills

nothing less than a spectacu-
lar epic interlude, staged with
modest success by director Mike
Nichols.

Nichols, however, came alive
most definitely in the wildly imag-
inative third act, Jules Feifer’s
unrestrained satire on the Ameri-
can dream of glorious success,
**Passionella.’”

Cinderella, who wants to be a
movie star, is granted this oppor-
tunity by her ‘friendly neighbor-
hood fairy godmother.” She
stands upright on the stage, the
legendary American sex goddess
of the screen, complete with tight,
flowing, white sequin dress, lus-
trous platinum wig, and large,
quivering breasts.

This final act was. real Broad-
way: the score was big and brassy
in the finest of stage musical
traditions, the dialogue was hon-
estly entertaining, and the tech-
nical effects were thrilling and
exciting, complete with a sev-
eral minute filmed sequence of
Miss Harris, a brilliant pop art
ending to a $300,000 fiasco.

Dane

Shots

by Duncan Nixon
Associate Sports Editor

Judging from Saturday’s Quadrangular tournament,
the wrestling outlook may be somewhat better than we
originally expected. The grapplers showed considerable
promise as they fell just short of capturing their second

10 Albany wrestlers reached the finals was certainly
encouraging, however, only one emerged as a champion.
So it looks like the Great Danes still have some work to
do in developing and polishing their skills, which makes
the nature of their schedule doubly unfortunate.

The first three matches are all against top notch schools
so the Great Danes will have to develop rapidly. Erik
Watts certainly looks like he will be ready. He was Al-
bany’s only champion, and he made it look easy as he
scored with a pin in his first encounter, and then took
the championship with a 15-2 decision.

Craig Springer and Frank Berry were both edged out
in the finals by one point. Springer lost 3-2 on a take
down that looked like it was out of bounds, while Berry
lost by a 2-1 count on a stalling call. Both of these
wrestlers should have winning records this year, but
they will have to come up with wins in the close ones
for the team to enjoy a fairly successful season.

Two others who should do well are Co-captain Roger
Gorham, and 130 pounder Gary Smagalski. Gorham ran
into a real monster in the finals, but he probably won’t
be seeing too many others that he can’t handle. Sma-
galski registered a pin in his first match, but was out-
pointed 4-0 in the final. A pleasant surprise was provided
at 191 where Roger Saul made his wrestling debut a
successful one, as he registered a pin inhis first match.

Bill Clark was the only other Great Dane to register
an actual win, as he scored a last second take-down
to gain a one point victory in the consolations of 137
pound category. This gives Albany a fairly solid wrest-
ler in seven of the weights, but 145, 167 and heavy-
weight look weak. Against top schools three weak weights
is three too many, since one can hardly expect all of the
better wrestlers to win against the better schools. Fran
Weal who injured his elbow in practice may not be ready
for Oneonta, but he is expected to fill the 145 pound gap.
Saul will probably be moved into the heavyweight spot,

“>and if he continues to develop at his present rate, that

problem may also be solved.

APA, BPS Lead In II

In League I action Saturday
the Bad News Five continued
their winning ways as they swept
past the cellar dwelling Irish
All-Stars for a 7-0 win, upping
their overall record to 26-2,
Thus the Five now enjoy a six
point bulge over the second place
Potter squad,

Potter is closely followed by
APA and KB both of which sport
19-9 slates. Top bowlers so far
in League I action include Tom
Piotrowski of Potter with a 183
average for 9 games, Alan Giles
with a 183 average for 11 games

and Gary Behrns with 179 aver-~
age.

In League Il action, the fresh-
men of Tappan Hall ran into
trouble as the Alcenites bombed

them for all 5 points, thus knock-
ing the Tappan men from first
to third, In other action BPS
and APA continued their winning
ways, and their 4-1 wins coupled
with Tappan’s loss resulted ina
tie for the top. APA and BPS
are now 15-5 while Tappan is
13-7,

BPS lost their opportunity to
take over sole possession when
they yielded a point to Potter
917, the point was Potter’s first
of the season. Top bowlers in
League II include APA’s Al Wein-

who both rolled 214 single games,

season on a sour note when they
lost at Utica to Mohawk Valley
Community College. Albany went
into the game as underdogs, but
in the course of the game showed
they could outplay Mohawk. The
loss came as a big disappoint
ment to Coach O’Brien and even
more of one to the players,

The hard training the frosh
have been through paid off, es-
pecially since their full court
press was used the entire game,
Only seven men were used and
hone appeared dead at the finish,

Generally, Albany outplayed
Mohawk, but the shots just
weren’t falling while the foul
shooting was even worse,

The game was close all the

them from no further than this
the rest of the half, The press
worked well in this half, but in
spite of having the ball more
often than Mohawk, their cold
shooting kept them slightly be-
hind, The score at the half was
34-33,

Albany eventually took the lead
midway through the second half
and was leading by four points
with only six minutes left, How.
ever, a combination of more
cold shooting, poor officiating and
@ murderous fast break by Mo-

Danes Strengthened by
Addition of Transfers

Doc Sauers has done it again!
Two transfers made their var-
sity basketball debut this week-
end and judging by their perfor-
mances, it looks like Sauers has
plucked a pair of fine prospects
from the Junior College ranks
to compliment his already excel-
lent core of ballplayers.

Bob Wood came to Albany via
Albany Junior College, where he
averaged 22 points a game. Wood
started at guard both Friday
and Saturday, He impressed with
both his ball handling and his
shooting, and he also played a
tight defensive game throughout.

dim Caverly, a six footer who
captained Broome Tech last year,

was the other transfer who saw
considerable action. Caverly was
Sauers’ first sub up front, He
rebounded extremely well, and
also played rugged defense, And
although he did not shoot much he
did show considerable scoring po-
tential.

Two other transfers who didn’t
see action, but may make value
able contributions before the
season is over are Ed Arsenau,
and Dave Riegel, Arseneau is a
5-10 guard who came by way of
Mohawk Valley Community,
while Riegel is a 6-4 center who
started his college career at
Brockport,

Scraps

by Glenn Sapir
Sports Editor

The dedication basketball tourney held this past
weekend had all the ingredients for success. Nothing
was missing except the gym, whose opening was the
originally scheduled occasion for the gala festivities
held at Cardinal McCloskey Gymnasium. People were
there, players, coaches, spectators, reporters and bas-
ketball officials. I think each is worth commenting on
in an attempt at showing that basketball at this Uni-
versity is reaching the plateau of big time sports.

Cardinal McCloskey Gymnasium officially seats 1,600
people. Friday night’s crowd easily exceeded this amount.
Saturday evening’s turnout also occupied all seats. Good
basketball attracts good crowds, and good crowds often
stimulate good hometeam basketball. Neither partner in
this relationship went home complaining after the ‘“‘tour-
ney’’ was over. The point is that Friday’s fans came
back Saturday, obviously satisfied with what they saw, and
what they saw was good basketball, and furthermore, it
often takes these fans to kindle the spark which produces
good basketball.

The players were there. Williams College, indeed a
name school and a new one to Albany basketball, brought
in a big, fast team. Leading the attack was Jay Healy,
no less than an ECAC All East selection last year. Wil-
liams also brought with them Bill Untereker, a 6’6”’
senior who poured through 28 points against the Great
Danes. Art Delusky of RPI, Chuck Huber of Coast Guard,
and Albany’s Scott Price, all played well, and Albany’s
Rich Margison, ‘‘outstanding tourney player,’’ outclass-
ed them all. The point is that name schools with star
caliber players were here.

Two coaches need be cited to prove that this was
good basketball. Dick Sauers of Albany and Al Shaw of
Williams. Both have to their credit winning percentages
above the .650 marker.

Officials were there. You knew because they made
their presence felt, and because sometimes they didn’t.
However these officials were supposedto be good, one
in fact often works in Madison Square Garden.

One comment bya "Newspaperman is this. Bob Mac-
Namara of the Knick News predicts that Albany will
be a power in this sport. In fact, he feels some day the
UCLANS will meet the SUNYANS, but then again, what
do sportswriters know.

Sauersmen Divide Two,

Invade Buffalo Tonight!

by Don Oppedisano

Coach Dick Sauer will try to
break a personal losing streak
tonight when his Great Dane bas-
ketball squad jet to Buffalo Bulls
for an 8:30 p.m. encounter at
Clark Gym. Sauer’s teams have
yet to defeat Buffalo in nine pre-
vious attempts.

UB will return with almost
the same team that it had last
season when it defeated the Al-
pany men twice, 90-68 at Buf-
falo and 76-73 at LaSalle Insti-
tute in the last game of the
season, Only 6’4’ Art Walker,
who dropped out of school, is
missing from the starting five.

This year’s Bulls will be led
by Ed Eberle, Doug Bernard,
and Ron Bator. They opened their
season last Saturday ona winning
note by downing a tough Gannon
College team, 88-73,

But this year’s edition of the
Great Danes are a much better
team that last season’s and this
was visibly evident last week-
end during the Invitational Tour-
ney at the Cardinal McCloskey
High School gymnasium.

Friday, the Sauersmen led by

of 14 field goals and 11 of 14
free throws. Scott Price added
13 with Adams and Bob Wood
getting 10 each.

On Saturday, the Danes were
pitted against Williams College
for the first time since the 1923-
1924 season, Williams, the night
before, had easily handled the
Coast Guard Academy, 96-74, and
was picked by many people to
walk away with the tournament
title. Such was not the case,
however.
