Fund to assist
family of slain
SUNYA grad

By Laura Liebesman
ASSOCIATE NEWS EDITOR

A fund has been established for the sur-
viving family members of Dr. Lutakume
Andrew (“Andy”) Kayiira, a SUNYA
graduate assassinated in Uganda in March.

Kayiira, who received his Ph.D. from
the School of Criminal Justice in 1977, is
survived by his wife and six young
children.

According to a written statement by
School of Criminal Justice, the fund has
been established to aid his family who is in
need of immediate financial assistance.

Kayiira, who had taken a leave of
absence from his faculty position at Marist.
College in Poughkeepsie in Fall 1985 to
join the new coalition government in
Uganda, was arrested, with his family at a
roadside search by the Ugandan govern-
ment in October 1986, the statement said.

A few days after his release from five
months of imprisonment, Kayiira was shot
and killed during an interview at the home
of a BBC correspondent.

The School of Criminal Justice’s state-
ment termed the shooting a “‘political
assassination.””

Contributions should be sent to

Student Association presidential elec-
tions have been postponed until April 21
and 22 due to a last-minute SA Supreme
Court ruling that campaigning done for
presidential candidate Matt Doddo has
“seriously damaged” that of opponent
Maria Maglione.

The ruling was the result of an emergen-
cy Supreme Court session called late Mon-
day night by Maglione to address her con-
cerns that Doddo’s campaign was violating
particular sections of the SA election
regulations policy.

After the three-hour proceedings and an
equally long adjournment, the attending
justices determined that to repair damages
done to Maglione’s campaign, a campaign
extension was necessary.

Elections for all other SA positons,

Alumni Quad responds

which began this morning and will con-
tinue until Wednesday evening, will take
place as scheduled.

Maglione contended that she has not
received the ‘‘fair and just’’ election
guaranteed by the SA Constitution and re-
quested Doddo’s name be removed from
the ballot.

The court decided, however, to
postpone the elections and investigate
Maglione’s charges further.

Of the four election regulations
Maglione declared violated, the court
postponed decision on one pending further
investigation, and dismissed another for
lack of conclusive evidence.

The court did find violations to three
sections: the granting of SA recognition
without following set guidelines, the
misappropriation of funds from SA fund-
ed groups, and misuse of vice presidential

Rally for safety draws 100 students

By Robert Wieland
STAFF WRITER

Close to 100 Alumni Quad residents
chanting ‘Together we will do it’ rallied for
student safety in reaction to an assault
which occurred in a women’s bathroom on
the quad earlier that week.

The intent of Sunday evening’s rally,
organized by Central Council’s safety
committee, was to increase student
awareness of safety measures, and hear
concerns about quad safety problems.

Alumni Quad has been hit with a
number of security-related incidents this
semester — one rape, two assaults and one
case of criminal trespassing.

The rally also addressed certain Univer-
sity measures taken over the weekend to
tighten security around Alumni in
response to these incidents.

The Department of Public Safety in
cooperation with the office of Residental
Life has already instituted a public safety
satellite station in the Alumni Quad office.
Working out of this office is a nightwat-
chman, assigned from 11 p.m. until ap-
proximately 7 a.m.; an investigator, who
will open and close the quad everyday; and
a grade 12 police officer, who will patrol

Alumni Quad for four hours each day.

Although the rally was scheduled to be
held in the center courtyard of Alumni
Quad, rain drove the crowd inside, where
they were all encouraged to participate ina
discussion of safety measures on campus.

News of a recent security crackdown —
including placing locks on women’s
bathrooms and limiting access to dorm
halls — by University officials left several
students at the rally with a feeling that
“Big Brother’? was taking over due to a
lack of student input.

However, Investigator Douglas Kern of
the Department of Public Safety, who was
present at the rally, defended the Univer-
sity’s actions.

“The administration sought student in-
put during three separate meetings the
department held, and that the department
was doing what was suggested during those
meetings,”’ Kern said.

Most students at the rally agreed that
locking each residence halls’ side and back
doors would only cause confusion at the
one remaining exit/entrance door. This
situation would allow any strangers access
when a crowd proceeded to enter the

power.

“This is ridiculous,” Doddo said in
reaction to the decision. He said he
believes Maglione ‘“‘is just finding gaps to
rebuild her campaign on.”’

Citing numerous examples, Maglione
implicated high-ranking SA officials —
president, vice president, and Central
Council chair and vice chair — as actively
campaigning against her and using their
positions in SA to illegally influence the
outcome of the elections.

Defending SA and Doddo, Central
Council Vice-Chair Bill McCann denied
any wrongdoing on the part of Doddo or
any SA officials.

Although individuals in SA have taken
stands. supporting Doddo’s presidential
campaign, Maglione’s campaign has not
been compromised, McCann said.

Univ. beefing up
Alumni security

By Jennifer McCormick
ASSOCIATE NEWS EDITOR

Prompted by the fourth in a series of in-
cidents involving women’s safety on
Alumni Quad this semester, University of-
ficials began implementing stricter security
control measures this weekend.

Among changes being effected are the
installation of locks on all women’s
bathroom doors; rewiring women’s
bathroom lights so they can’t be turned
off; removing side and back door handles
to prohibit entrance; connecting alarms to
emergency exit doors; and repairing and
improving first-floor window screens.

The question facing University ad-
ministrators following Tuesday’s attack on
a female student was ‘‘What can we do
most effectively, most quickly?’’ accor-
ding to Vice President of Student Affairs
Henry Kirchner.

The ongoing goal of the semester has
been to find ‘‘cost-effective ways to
enhance security over the long haul,’’ Kir-
chner said.

Degree of security on Alumni has been
gradually increasing since a Feb. 5 rape,
with the Neighborhood Watch Program
beginning last month; more section, infor-
mational meetings concerning safety; signs
on doors cautioning against admitting
strangers into buildings; and a generally
heightened awareness to security issues.

The most recent steps, however, have
been done with regard to ‘‘a very par-
ticular set of circumstances,” said Assis-
tant Vice President of the Physical Plant
Dennis Stevens.

“The actions we’re taking are specifical-
ly geared to this,’’ Stevens said. Two of the
attacks on females took place in a
bathroom, at least one of which was
darkened.

All external doors on Alumni Quad are
locked 24 hours a day, but keys from other
buildings would open certain doors. These
doors will now be on the alarm system ex-
cept during mealtimes.

A memorandum to all Alumni Quad
residents from Area Coordinator Carol
Stenger stated, ‘‘you will be able to enter
and exit your residence hall through the
front lobby doors only.’”

However, Stevens provided different in-

The World ei
Trade talks to begin

Washington, D.C.
(AP) Two of the world’s most pressing
economic problems — trade imbalances
and Latin American debt — are likely to
dominate high-level talks this week among
finance officials of the United States and
its key trading partners.

But analysts expect little in the way of
new initiatives to emerge on either front
from sessions of the 151-nation Interna-
tional Monetary Fund or from separate
talks among the major industrial
democracies.

The week-long session will be the first
meeting of the international organization
since Brazil indefinitely suspended interest
payments in February on some $70 billion
in debt it owes to commercial banks.

Brazil is expected to outline a new five-
year plan for economic growth that in-
cludes a proposed restructuring of its debt
payments.

Pope visits prisoners

Antopagasta, Chile
(AP) Pope John Paul II prepared Monday
to end his violence-marred Chilean

pilgrimage by visiting political prisoners |

Augusto Pinochet.

On Sunday, he gave words of en-
couragement to Indians and farmworkers
in an economically depressed southern
region and heard a local archbishop
describe Chile as torn by “‘terrorism’’
from both the government and opposition
forces.

The Pope arrived in the northern desert
town of Antofagasta on Sunday night and
offered a blessing for the residents over the
local television station. He was scheduled
Monday to visit the Antofagasta prison,
whose inmates include political prisoners
accused of leftist subversion, before leav-
ing Chile for neighboring Argentina.

Relatives of inmates have alleged that
some political prisoners were: transferred
just before John Paul’s arrival so they

Northampton, Mass.
(AP) Amy Carter, the daughter of former

She and longtime activist Abbie Hoff-
man said at a news conference prior to the
start of jury selection in Hampshire
District Court that they hope to be allowed
to present a “‘necessary defense.” They
contend that the demonstration at the
University of Massachusetts was a lawful
response to alleged illegal activities by the
CIA in Central America.

Miller urges ‘courage’

Albany
(AP) One of the architects of a sweeping
plan to cut state income taxes and revise
New York’s tax codes said he hopes state
leaders would have the ‘‘courage’”’ to
modify the plan if necessary over the rest
of this decade.

The four-year, 4.5 billion tax-cut plan,
agreed to Friday by the leaders in the state
Legislature and endorsed by Gov. Mario
Cuomo, depends to a large extent on the
continued health of the state and federal

“The Regents are being a little too hasty.”

At issue is a request by the Regents for

it was discontinued by the legislature in
1979 as a cost-cutting move.

Regents and Empire State scholarships
are currently awarded on the SAT, a stan-

East as one of the criteria for admission.

Ethics bill deal made

Albany
(AP) The state Senate and Assembly have
made a deal on legislation that would re-
quire greater disclosure of the finances of
members of the state Legislature and many
State officials, and spell out rules for
ethical behavior by government
employees.

The agreement is on a modified version
of.a bill the Republican and Democratic
leadership. of the state legislature had an-
nounced a deal on March 16. However,
that measure had to be altered to answer
objections raised by the Republican ma-
jority in the Senate during a lengthy con-
ference on the ethics bill Thursday,
legislative sources said.

The changes would limit public access to
the annual disclosure statements of
legislators and state employees by ‘‘split-
ting’’ the forms.

Information on the forms that’s deemed
not to pertain to the discharge of a public
officials’s or state lawmaker’s duties, such
as assets or income that nothing to do with
the state, would still have to be disclosed,
but wouldn’t be made public, under the
modified bill.

Aid agreement near

Albany
(AP) Legislative leaders were expected to
announce agreement Monday on a state
aid package for New York’s 736 school
districts that is at least $140 million richer
than proposed by Gov. Mario Cuomo, ac-
cording to fiscal aides.

“They’re working out the details of how
much each district will get,”*said Gerald
McLaughlin, spokesman for the state
Senate’s budget-writing Finance Commit-
tee, on Sunday.

McLaughlin said that with the education
aid package virtually settled and general
agreement already in hand on the state’s

‘largest tax cut ever, action on the $41
billion state budget would likely be com-
pleted Wednesday. That would be exactly
a week after the beginning of the new fiscal
year.

In late January, Cuomo presented a pro-
posed state budget that called for a $405
million increase in state school aid. That
increase would have raised total state aid
to local schools to just over $7 billion. The
state Board of Regents had asked for an
increase of $693 million.

Court to rule on ASUBAfest funds

By Sandie Weitzman
STAFF WRITER

Arguments from Student Association
(SA) and Albany State University Black
Alliance (ASUBA) officials were heard
Sunday night by the SA Supreme Court

over the controversial Anita Baker
concert.
Baker, a Grammy award nominee,

played at the Palace Theater on March 25
for a fee of $54,000.

ASUBA President Walter Alston argued
before the Court that $15,000 of the
$54,000 total fee paid by UCB for Baker is
ASUBA’s and should be returned.

According to SA policy, the Supreme
Court — which has final jurisdiction in
this case — has up to three weeks to render
a decision.

The current controversy began last year
during the SA budget meeting on April 21.
The budget committee decided that the
$15,000 traditionally given to ASUBA for
its annual ASUBAfest concert would be
transferred to the UCB budget because of
UCB’s advanced ability to deal with con-
cert agencies.

To prevent UCB from having total con-
trol of the money, a four-part rider was at-
tached to its budget which reads: A) No
more than $15,000 in total will be spent on
ASUBAfest unless approved by UCB, B)
UCB will give a list of available groups to
ASUBA, C) ASUBA will pick up to six
groups, and D) UCB will pick from the six,
barring any unforseen difficulties.

Rob Gittens, an ASUBA representative
to the court Sunday explained that
ASUBAfest is traditionally held in April in
accordance with Black Women’s Week
and said they were not.in favor of the

UCB President Larry Fox defended SA in court on Sunday.

Baker concert being called ASUBAfest if it
was not during that time period.

Larry Fox, UCB president and a defen-
dant for SA, explained, however, that by
the time ASUBA wanted to pull out of the
funding of the concert was no longer
possible.

Baker’s concert, which drew sell-out
crowds, was not performed under the
name ASUBAfest because of the
controversy.

Alston said that this was a ‘great in-
justice’, and that ASUBAfest is a 15-year
tradition used to unify black power on
campus, and the concert caused this tradi-
tion to be sacrificed.

Fox told the court that contract negotia-
tions for Baker began in November after

SA may remove most group
income lines to battle deficit

By Colleen Deslaurier
EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

In order to prevent future deficits, Stu-
dent Association officials have proposed
eliminating ‘income lines’’ for 80 percent
of SA is funded groups.

SA’s budget for 1987-‘88, which in-
cludes major revisions to offset this year’s
$65,000 deficit, has already passed SA’s
executive branch and is presently being
worked on by the legislative budget
committee.

Central Council is set to vote on the en-
tire budget at its April 22 meeting.

SA. Controller Agnes Seminara, said
elimination. of group income lines is
necessary because ‘‘we don’t have enough
money to spread around.”’

Each year, every SA funded group is
allocated a portion of SA’s overall budget,
which is money collected through the $103
mandatory student activity fee.

SA then ‘‘loans’’» groups another
amount of money — the income line —
and groups must make back any money
they spend from this fund or register a
deficit.

Actual allocations plus an income line
make up a group’s total budget.
Seminara said that in order to guard

against the possibility of groups con-
tributing to SA’s deficit, income lines. will
be cut from many groups’ budgets for next
year.

“Everyone got clipped back,’’ she said.

However, Seminara said that certain SA
groups which ‘‘sell services’’ will retain
their income lines. These groups — about
20 percent of all SA funded groups — in-
clude University Concert Board, Dippikill,
University Cinemas and Torch yearbook.

Another change in the proposed budget
would establish income lines for the Food
Co-op and SUNY tunes, groups which
normally operated at zero appropriation
but still contribute to SA’s deficit because
they ‘lose money every year,’ according
to Legislative Budget Committee Chair
Flip Posner.

Because of the deficit, many groups are
set to suffer cuts in their appropriation,
Posner said.

However, Posner said that SA itself suf-
fered $25,000 in cuts and Central Coun-
cil’s budget lost $2,000. ‘*‘Nobody took a
bigger cut than SA.”’ said Posner.

During the current review process by
the Legislative Budget Committee, groups
may appeal their proposed budgets before
the entire budget is put to a vote by Central
Council.

Posner said that the committee planned
to cut some groups and add to others.
“We haven’t given anybody any money
yet.”’ said Posner.

The committee will look at ‘‘back track
records’’ of the groups. ‘‘We’ll see what
they need and how much we have to give,”
said Posner.

Groups contesting their budget may ap-
peal at the April 22 council meeting but
only if they have previously appealed to
the committee, Posner said.

This year, SA’s total budget was drawn
up with about $20,600 less from last year,
said Posner.

This drop reflects a decrease in the
number of people paying the activity fee
this year, he said. Oo

ASUBA and UCB decided to work
together towards finding a minority act for
ASUBAfest.

After what Fox explained as an “‘offer-
counteroffer”’ process of negotiation bet-
ween UCB’s and Baker’s agents, the fee of
$54,000 and the April 1 date was decided
upon.

But Fox said that on January 29, he
received a call from his agent, and was told
that either he accept March 25 for the
Baker concert, or the deal will have to_be
dropped. Baker was contracted to appear
at Westburt Music Fair March 29, 30 and
31, and since all three dates had sold out,
they were adding April 1 as an extra one.

Because of this, Gittens alleged that

Univ. Council ballot upheld as constitutional

By Pam Conway
NEWS EDITOR

Student Association Supreme
Court Sunday unanimously re-
jected a request by University
Council candidate Brian
Feinblum that Matt Doddo, aslo
a candidate for the position, be
removed from the ballot.

Feinblum brought his case to
the court last week charging that
SA’s extension of the nomination
period allowed Doddo to add his
name on the ballot unjustly.

SA officials maintained that its
extension of the nomination
period was both fair and
necessary and that Doddo is a
legal candidate.

On the weekend of March 21,
SA executive branch members
employed the Emergency Powers
Act to extend the nomination
deadline four days from March 20
to March 24.

Chief Justice Jyoti Balakrishna
said the decision was made
because ‘“‘Feinblum did not have a
constitutional leg to stand on.”

“The SA President has a right
within the constitution to invoke
the Emergency Powers Act,” said

Balakrishna, adding that no
Maglione
<4

maintained.

Insinuations of campaigning
and electioneering in the SA of-
fice were raised by Maglione and
included sworn testimonies of
people who claim seeing or hear-
ing of candidates being promoted
illegally in the constitutionally-
neutral office.

These were brushed aside as
‘thearsay’? by McCann, and were
countered by testimonies for the
defense.

Maglione questioned Duarte’s
admitted involvement with a per-
son or persons tearing down
Maglione posters, though Duarte
said he had nothing to do with the
actual removal of the posters.

Bill McCann’s ad hoc ‘‘Elect
Matt Doddo”’ SA funded group
was not ackowledged properly by
SA, and was given temporary
recognition by Duarte wrongly,
judged the court.

A letter circulated in the dorms
and printed as an ad in the ASP
was determined to misuse SA of-
ficials’-power as supporters of a
political candidate.

The third ruling of the court
was that Tuttle was not acting in
his capacity as SA vice president
correctly when he signed _a letter
of support of Doddo as vice presi-
dent. oO

specific policy was broken in ex-
tending the nominations for all
candidates.

Feinblum argued his case Sun-
day night in a small Campus
Center conference room, while
Central Council Chair Larry
Hartman, Vice Chair Bill Mc-
Cann and Elections Commis-
sioner Paul Barnes defended SA’s
actions.

The SA Supreme Court is the
judicial branch of student govern-
ment consisting of six members,
and has final jurisdiction over SA
election policy.

Balikrishna and justices Greg
Cardillo, Dave Ettinger, and An-
drea Horowitz presided over the
case.

Feinblum argued that SA of-
ficials extended the nomination
deadline from March 20 to 24 in
order to attract more candidates
to races which were lacking ade-
quate amount of students to fill
those available slots.

This action, according to
Feinblum, unfairly allowed for
three more people to place their
names on the ballot for University
Council — a race which already

b) Don’t buy textbooks when “Monarch Notes” will do

had a full number of candidates.

Since that time, certain
nominees have dropped out of the
race, but one candidate who plac-
ed his name on the ballot after the
original Friday deadline — Matt
Doddo — remains on the ballot.

Last Wednesday, Flip Posner
withdrew his name form the
University Council ballot in order
to endorse Phil Botwinik for the
position.

According to Feinblum, he has
been treated unjustly because he
now has to run against Doddo,
who he feels is “‘almost assured of
victory.’”

Balakrishna said the Court
“took into account’’ Feinblum’s
claim of being placed into an
“‘unfair’’ situation.

Doddo is also running for SA
president, a situation which
Feinblum said is also unjust
because of the SA funding
presidential candidates receive,
which University ‘Council can-
didates do not, and additonal
media coverage given to Doddo
places other University Council
candidates at a disadvantage.

At this point, Balakrishna said
Feinblum did not have a valid

case because no policy exists
limiting the number of positions a
person may run for.

“Maybe it would be a good
idea to pass a policy to that ef-
fect,’’ she said, stressing that the
Supreme Court does not have the
authority to make such a
decision.

University Council is a grour
of community members ap-
pointed by the governor — and
one elected student representative
— who have the final word on
University-wide policies.

At Sunday’s case, SA officials
argued that the deadline was ex-
tended not only to get candidates
for specific positions, but to rec-
tify SA’s ‘‘dismal’’ attempt to

publicize the elections to all
students.

Because of budget constraints,
this year SA decided to publicize
elections and positions through
Albany Student Press personals
rather than posters.

Therefore, said Hartman, the
deadline was extended for all
positions, not only those lacking
in candidates.

During the case, Feinblum also
charged SA officials — who have
stated support of Doddo’s
presidential campaign — with
purposely extending the nomina-
tion period to get Doddo on the
University Council ballot.

McCann refuted this claim as
“fudicrous.’? o

SA Supreme Court overseeing vote on NYPIRG

By Jennifer McCormick
ASSOCIATE NEWS EDITOR

A Student Association
Supreme Court justice will ac-
company Elections Commissioner
Paul Barnes as he oversees SA
elections today and Wednesday to
ensure validity of results.

This action results from an
agreement reached by SA officials
and Students Against Forced
Funding (STAFF), who charged
that results of the New York
Public Interest Research Group’s
(NYPIRG) funding referendum

could be biased due to pro-
NYPIRG opinions of SA
officials.

STAFF brought these charges
to the Supreme Court, who then
decided Saturday that a hearing
was ‘“‘unnecessary’’ and the case
be settled out of court between
the two groups, said Justice Greg
Cardillo.

According to Cardillo, both SA
and STAFF officials agreed to

The alarms’ purpose ‘‘is not to

According to Stenger’s
memorandum, ‘‘additional

STAFF has been campaigning

“The people running the elec-

outcome,’’ Priola said.

Sixty percent of the vote is
necessary in order for NYPIRG
to win the referendum, which ap-
pears on the SA election ballot
every two years.

Calling the court’s decision
“very educated,” Duarte said he
and Tuttle were ‘‘ecstatic’’ about
the decision.

Priola also was pleased by the
outcome, although he added he is
“‘cautiously optimistic.”

Tuttle, however, had defended
the impartiality of SA elections by
citing “safeguards in the system”’
which prevent tampering of
results.

According to Tuttle, SA is en-

political issues.

said he’s ‘‘not concerned with any
costs involved.’

Central Council member James
Lamb said “‘Students brought this
on ourselves,’’ by repeatedly
opening doors for non-students
or by propping doors open.

“The key is an ongoing educa-
tional awareness program,’’ Kir-
chner said. Educating students
about safety issues is vital to a
safe campus community, he said.

Lamb agreed that the most im-
portant step is to “launch a safety
awareness campaign.’’ oO

justices of the SA Supreme
Court, Priola stated that because
“SA executive and election of-
ficials have demonstrated
repeated and blatant bias in this
election,” and the “individual
and collective civil rights of the
students at the State University of
New York are in apparent danger
of being abused.”

Priola had originally suggested
Tuttle ask Vice President of Stu-
dent Affairs Henry Kirchner to
administrate the overseeing of the

su

elections because the administra-
tion has ‘‘less vested interest than
any of us.’’

Tuttle’s response was that he
would not “‘let Ed Priola tell us
who to hire.”’

“He’s a little bit naive if he
thinks the University doesn’t care

about these issues,’’ added
Tuttle.
Despite Priola’s objections,

Tuttle added, ‘‘He’s going to get
a fair election whether he believes
it or not.”* ia

Countdown to Guinness Day Ill
at press conference

kicked off

By Deborah Kestin

SA President Paco Duarte led a
mock game of Simon Sez with
SUNYA mascot McDuff at the
small fountain Friday to publicize
the upcoming Guinness Day.

About 50-60 curious by-
standers watched as Guinness
Day organizers demonstrated
Simon Sez and handed out
balloons publicizing the event.

Guinness Day III is set for
April 25 at the Administration
Circle, with nationally known
“Mr. Simon Sez’”’ Bob Schaffer
leading an estimated 6,000
SUNYA students in setting a
world record for the game.

At Friday’s. press conference,
SA Programming Director Mark
Perlstein formally invited the
Albany community to join
SUNYA for ‘‘an event that will be
for the whole family.’’

According to Perlstein, the
purposes of the press conference
were to publicize the event to the
community and nearby colleges,
to invite them to play along, to
make people on campus more
aware of the event, and to en-

courage school spirit through’
participation.
The press conference was

covered by local TV channels 6
and 10 and by the Times Record.
Public Relations Co-Chair
Hillary Fink said press releases
were sent out to many more TV
and radio stations and
newspapers, but she was very
satisfied with the media that came
— especially the TV channels.

This year’s Guinness Day dif-
fers from previous years’ because
SUNYA will be setting a world
record, not breaking one.
Records were broken in past
Guinness Day events for Twister
and musical chairs, and this
year’s event will establish
SUNYA as the school with the
most world records.

Pre-registration for Guinness
Day Ill has been ‘‘slow but
steady,’ according to Perlstein,
with about 1500 people signed up
so far.

Beginning this week, students
can pre-register on dinner lines or
in the Campus Center lobby. Pre-
registration is a way for SA to
publicize the event and get a
general idea of the participation
expected.

Fink and her co-chair, Lisa
Risolo, have tried to contact as
many local and national
newspapers, magazines and TV
stations as possible, and hope to
get some mention on the David
Letterman Show, the New York
Times and People Magazine.

Every person intending to par-
ticipate — even if they have pre-
registered — must report to
registration starting at 9 a.m. the
day of the event and pay the $2
registration fee.

The first 4,000 registrants the
day of the event will receive a
Guinness Day t-shirt and Pepsi
painters cap.

Guinness Day III is scheduled
to begin at noon, and last approx-
imately four hours. The overall
winner’s name will be recorded in
the next published edition of the
Guinness Book of World
Records.

One judge will oversee every 25
contestants. Anyone interested in
judging should notify Barrie
Kaufman, chair of the judging
committee, in the SA office.

The event is costing SA about

UCB taking last shot at big-name Mayfest band

By Lisa Rizzolo
STAFF WRITER

After numerous rejections, University
Concert Board (UCB) is making its last at-
tempt to obtain a headline band for
Mayfest, which is scheduled for May 2.

The group is making “‘one last-ditch ef-
fort’? for a big-name performer and “‘if
that falls through, we [UCB] will have to
settle,’? said UCB President Larry Fox.
Fox would not reveal the name of the ar-
tist(s) that UCB is waiting to hear from,
but said only that they would have an
answer by this week.

“If all the big names fall through this
week, we [UCB] will settle for something
similar to Toots and the Maytalls [a reggae
act], the Ramones, and the Psychadelic
Furs,” he said .

Despite difficulties in finding a per-

former, according to UCB Vice President
Seth Ben-Yishay, everything from beer,
food and wood fencing is already being
ordered for the event.

“Everyone from [SA President] Paco
[Duarte], Larry [Fox] to myself wants to
have a Mayfest,”’ said Ben-Yishay. ‘‘If we
have to put on an event that is not as high
caliber as we wanted, we will still do it.””

“I think we’re in a difficult spot,” said
Duarte, ‘‘Several attempts have been made
to bring quality acts, but the availability of
high quality entertainment is scarce now,”
he said.

According to Ben—Yishay the dif-
ficulties UCB is having now in obtaining a
performer, ‘‘would not have happened if
Huey Lewis had been approved.’’

$65,000 deficit, UCB had concentrated its
efforts to find a big-name band in order to
ensure the event’s financial success.

The first proposal to University ad-
ministrators for Mayfest bands included
Huey Lewis, Robert Cray, and Third
World. However, it was turned down
because, “‘officials thought the bands
would draw too big of a crowd,”’ said Ben-
Yishay.

University officials have set a limit of
11,000 for the event.

Ever since mid-March UCB has spoken
to and made offers to approximately 75 to
100 bands, according to Fox.

“Every band has a different reason for
not being able to perform,”’ he said. ‘‘Billy
Joel didn’t want to play outdoors; U2 is
booked in a major arena [on May 2];

Bryan Adams is playing in Louisiana three
days after Mayfest; and Stevie Wonder is
currently staying in the studio and then go-
ing to Europe,”’ said Fox.

UCB’s last bid, Steve Winwood, was
turned down because his tour is com-
pleted, and he will not do another concert,
added Fox.

“Mayfest is only one month away so at
this point, we will have to take what we
can get,” said Fox, adding that ‘‘there is
no way we [UCB] can be blamed for the ef-
fort we have put in.””

- “I won’t go out on a line and make a
prediction about how many people will
come [to Mayfest], but I don’t expect to
lose that much money that surplus won’t
be able to cover,’’ said Fox. o

Fox’s next box office success

ichael J.Fox is back. This time he’s
M: a really good film by seasoned
director Herbert Ross (The Turning

Point, Footloose).

April S. Anastasi

The Secret of My Success is an in-
teresting example of what might tradi-
tionally be referred to as a comedy of man-
ners. Sleek and stylized, the film’s witty,
well-written script is generously spiced
with romance.

Given the proper material, as

in this work, [Fox] flourishes

and steps out of his television

stereotype while maintaining
his credibility.

Brantley Foster (Fox) is a 24-year-old
farm boy from Kansas who has come to
New York determined to conquer the
business world. After obtaining a position
in the mailroom of the Pemrose Corpora:
tion from his distant, and quite reluctant
uncle, the company’s chief executive,
Brantley begins scheming, about what he
sees as his imminent rise to the top of the
company.

His plan largely depends upon. his
leading a double life - both that of a
mailroom worker and of a brash, young
executive witha sharp business sense. Vir-
tually undetected, he moves himself into a
vacant office within the large complex and
assumes the identity of one Carlton Whit-
field, executive extraordinaire.

In the interim between his arrival in the
Big Apple and his acquisition of what
becomes Whitfield’s office, Brantley falls
in love with Christy Wills (Helen Slater), a
striking, young financial wizard who is the

sole female executive in the male-
dominated boardroom. Initially unrecep-
tive to Brantley’s advances, she eventually
lets down her guard and winds up falling
for him, even though she has not quite
ceased being the boss’ mistress, the boss be-
ing Brantley’s uncle,

Meanwhile, the boss’ lustful wife has

fallen in love (or, at the very least, in lust)
with Brantley, This completes the forma-
tion of two unusual, overlapping love
triangles with Brantley at the apex of each.
This romantic configuration is unraveled,
finally, as is the mistaken Brantley/Whit-
field identity problem, in an extremely
funny bedroom scene at the boss’ home.

The driving score, written by Grammy-
award winner David Foster, buoys the
movie along, never letting it sink. From
chase scenes to love scenes, Foster's music
guides viewers from one sequence to the
next so naturally that the technique, artful-
ly, is barely noticable.

Fox's performance blatantly reveals
what both Back to the Future and Family
Ties have implied.He’s a very’ talented
young actor who is well-versed in the art
of comedic timing: Given the proper
material, as in this work, he flourishes and
steps out of his television stereotype while
maintaining his credibility. Amazingly fun-
ny, he makes up for past disappointments
such as Teen Wolf.

Slater brings to her role the experience
she gained from her work on the comedy
hit Ruthless People. Her Christy is proper-
ly aloof, conveying both the ambition and
the femininity behind the curt business-like
manner. Yet, Slater keeps her from being
an oppressive, humorless character.

Veteran actors Richard Jordan’ and
Margaret Whitton skillfully portray
respectively, the company president con-
sumed by his work and his lonely, bored
wife, Their talent and experience result in
very strongly defined supporting perfor-
mances which only add to the film's abun-
dance of chaos and comedy:

Though their amount of screen time is
not as great, John Pankow, as Melrose, the
mailroom clerk who warns Brantly about
“consorting” with the “suits” (executives),
and Carol-Ann Susi, as Whitfield’s
secretary who keeps catching him with his
pants down, shine in their roles,

Yes, Michael J. Fox is back. This time
with a hit on his hands. After a few more
films like this, there will be no more
wondering about the secret of his success.

Idol’s fury whips through town

s spring break approaches most of
A your thoughts have turned to par-

ties and good times. So why not
start it off right by staying a couple of extra
days in Albany and taking in a Billy Idol
concert on April 12?

T.R. McNeil

Idol will be performing at the RPI
fieldhouse with another popular band, The
Cult. This is sure to be one of the best
shows of the year and an excellent chance
to see a premier rock superstar.

Idol is no stranger to the Albany area.
When he first hit the American music
scene, he performed no less than 4 concerts
in two years at such places as Union Col-
lege, The Palace Theater and the Saratoga
Performing Arts Center (SPAC). Each
show revealed Idol's popularity growing
by leaps and bounds until he had reached
the plateau he now occupies.

Idol rides into town atop his new album
entitled Whiplash Smile. After an absence
of nearly three years from the music scene,
Idol has quelled all rumors as to his death,
massive drug addiction and catastrophic il-
Inesses. With him he brings a radical depar-
ture from anything he has ever done.

Previous LP’s have been explorations of
a harsh, impeysonal world, a world
dedicated to crushing emotion. Idol's
stance has been that of a man determined
to keep emotion alive at all cost. Whiplash
Smile turns to a, world that has never
before appeared in Idol's music, the world
of relationships between a man and a
woman.

This newly found perspective on life
should show through in Sunday's show.
Idol has always been able to convey the
feeling behind a song, like no other per-
former. He can show vou a tender side you
woul ‘n't have thought existed behind th>*

leather clad exterior. Idol's unparalleled
style of rock is alive and well. That bleach-
ed-blonde hair, that pierced ear and
patented snarled lip all come into play
when he flexes one of his power stances at
center stage.

One unique aspect of his show is sure to
be the diversity of his audience. Common
sights at his concerts are shaved-head
punkers rocking till they drop. But just as
common are the conservative yuppie type.
Idol's style and energy appeal to a broad
group of people; that’s his secret to success.

Just as broad a selection are his songs, as
exhibited by. “White Wedding” and “Rebel
Yell.” "White Wedding” captures a sense
of innocence that's refreshing yet power-
ful, while ‘Rebel Yell’ is a call to arms for
any self respecting rocker. If you've seen
either of these, or any other of Idol's videos
you've caught a taste of his style and
emotion.

Idol is known for utilizing a very modest
stage setup. First impressions leave you
disappointed before the show even begins.
When the show starts, though, all ap-
prehensions are allayed. Idol, along with
guitarist extraordinaire Steve Stephens
rules the auditorium. They literally com-
mand your attention and refuse to let it go.

Appearances do not deceive when it
comes to Steve Stephens. He looks like
something right off the streets of a punk
section of London. The Telecaster guitars
he usually plays take extreme levels of
punishment as this fireball of enthusiasm
rocks like there’s no tomorrow. Stephens
and Idol go together like peanut butter and
jelly — one is great but together they're an
unbeatable combination.

Live, in concert, Idol tries to give away
every ounce of energy in his possession,
He's up, he’s down, he's all arouna. taois
very presence can be felt throughout the
concert hall, whether he’s at center stage

displaying a clenched fist or rolling on the
ground, wreathing, churning, struggling in
fits of emotion trying to set himself free.

So, by all means take the opportunity to
view a living legend this Sunday. Whether

just great sounding music, it may very well
be worth hanging around for a few extra
days into the break. You are sure to leave
RPI with a Whiplash Smile painted on your
face. Oo

Joan Scheckel and Dale Sandish as Anne and Peter

Anne: a lyrical study
of hope and despair

here are stranger ideas around than
— turning “The Diary of Anne Frank”

into a musical. Yes, a musical, and
yes, indeed, there probably aren't many
stranger ideas. Nevertheless, with a libretto
by Enid Futterman and music by Michael
Cohen, Yours, Anne surprisingly evokes
the spirit of the courageous Jewish
teenager whose spirit and love, in the form
of a diary, have outlived the Third Reich.

lan Spelling

The play opens innocently enough, with
the Frank family celebrating Anne's thir-
teenth birthday. Fortunately, Futterman
focuses only for a short time on the happy
phase of Anne's life. The irony is inherent
in history; it's the unfolding of the horrors
of war, and their chilling effect on humans
that is necessary to convey to modern
audiences,

In short order the Hitler regime prohibits
Jews from driving cars, then from owning
businesses, and soon sets a curfew. It quick-
ly becomes apparent to Otto Frank that
Holland no longer is safe for Jews. A sym-
pathetic non-Jew arranges for the family,
comprised of Mr. and Mrs. Frank (William
Brockmeier and Karen Gibson), their older
daughter Margot (Gina Kaufman) and
Anne (Joan Scheckel) to share a hidden
room with another family.

Mr, and Mrs. Van Daan (Frank Ander-
son and Mary Leigh Stahl) bring with them
their 15-year old son Peter (Dale Sandish).
A dentist (Franklin Brown), also a Jew on
the run, arrives just as the two families are
getting used to one another. This extra per-
son is initially welcomed with open arms,
but geniality turns to animosity among
them ali as provisions run low and hopes
even lower. The first act accentuates both
family’s belief that the hiding is only tem-
porary. Within the play, this allows a bet-
ter perspective of each character's  per-
sonality before the claustrophobia,
boredom and ultimate sense of impending
death pervade the air.

Four manifestations of Anne are shown.
In her twenty five months of hiding Anne
transforms from giddy child to selfish brat
to a young woman realizing her sexuality
and, finally, to a realistic woman swaying
on the precipice of discovering the mean-
ing of both life and death. Scheckel is the
focal point throughout and she proves a far
better actress than singer.

Though she can carry a tune, Scheckel’s
voice lacks ear-pleasing quality. Her
childish Anne flits about the stage, all
smiles and youthful gibberish. Scheckel
overdoes this. After the reality of a long-
term interment sets in, Scheckel never
loses touch with reality, and her perfor-
mance (and thus the show) is the better for

it.

Futterman wisely doesn’t attempt to
stamp sainthood upon Anne, who often
comes across as manipulative and cold.
Before something can melt entirely it must
first thaw, and Scheckel is provided ample
time to alter her character's nature. When
Scheckel’s Anne exits the stage to face her
fate (she died in Belsen-Bergen at age fif-
teen), the essence of a woman who gave
life her all remains. What more can an
audience demand?

It can demand emotion. Yours, Anne
goes to great lengths to avoid preaching
and this is commendable. However, the
ensemble generates precious little sym-
pathy. Rarely do the characters so much as
touch. Two families spend two years con-
fined together and the only people
presented sexually involved are Anne and
the Van Daan’s shy son (played with ge-
nuine tenderness and fear by Sandish).
Anne and her mother are portrayed as dis-
tant, but the close relationship between
father and daughter is hinted at rather than
examined, The great love that. possessed
Otto Frank to reveal his daughter's dreams
and fears to the world never really shines
through.

This is not to detract from Brockmeier's
fine performance, which in itself breathes
sincerity and warmth. The Van Daans are
not totally devoid of emotion, but they too
are limited in their capacity to express feel-
ings. Stahl’s Mrs. Van Daan wears the same
face throughout, rarely changing expres-
sion, while Anderson's husband seems like
a man in search of reciprocated affection.
Gibson and Kaufman, as Mrs. and Margot
Frank, respectively, play reserved
characters, instilling an inner dignity which
unfortunately doesn’t compensate for the
overall missing elements of humanity
perservering over inhumanity.

James Morgan’s stark, cluttered set pro-
vides the appropriate tone. Basically beds
placed at various heights upon the stage, it
suggests the cramped living quarters and a
thorough absence of privacy. Cohen's stirr-
ing music, too, prepares the audience for
what history dictated. A talented, small
group of musicians led by Uel Wade makes
the music sing.

At one point Anne pleads with her
father. “Please don’t say I'm only fifteen.
It’s been a very long two years.” Yours,
Anne capably shares Anne's story. Singing,
as opposed to playing it straight, allows for
a less painful swallowing of the Holocaust’s
bitter pill. Futterman digs deep, just not
deep enough, which is no crime in a
sincere, affecting production.

Yours, Anne will be playing at the Egg
until April 12. Call the box office at
443-5111 for information. Oo

A professional shrew

at SUNYA’s PAC

himsical, witty and inventive are all
Wires which have been used to
describe the perpetually popular
Shakesperean comedy, The Taming of the
Shrew, Under the direction of William
Leone, the SUNYA production of this
play, on the main stage of the Performing
Arts Center from April 1-5, wove these
components into a delightfully  light-
hearted, entertaining web of mirth,

Michelle Hoffman

The play is, among other things, about
the transforming power of true love. It is
filled with wooers and declarations of pas-
sion. The plot centers around the wooing
of Katherine; the shrew, and her sister,
Bianca, who is Katherine's antithesis. In her
role as Katherine, Jacqueline Serebrani was
as irascible a shrew as there ever was. She
demonstrated a remarkable duality in her
ability to epitomize the negative aspects of
a virtual mirage, while instilling the aud-
dience with a sense of compassion tor her
softer side.

Katherine is, as the title suggests, even-
tually tamed by a man, Petruchio, who is
more powerful (and more petulant) than
she. As played by Mark Walthers, this
Petruchio started off weakly, as a lusty,
money-hungry dandy who has a great af-
finity for his own genitalia, but not a great
deal of inner strength. In the first part it
doesn’t seem he has the temperament of
character to dominate a woman such as
Katherine. Walthers grows into his role
after intermission and turns in a fine perfor-
mance as he, “... kills her in her own
humor” and “... is more shrew than she.”

Although both Serebrani and Walthers
give compelling performances, their scenes
are often stolen by the Fool, Grumio. In
this part, John James Hickey, is simply
delightful. His rubber-band body and snap
delivery make him both humorous and
endearing.

Not so endearing is the character of
Bianca played by Jo Anne Warn. As a flir-
tatious vixen she is more than competent,
but her character is also meant to illustrate
a transformation. The comedy loses some
of its ironic force when she doesn’t change
from an innocent, sweet, demure young

thing, who is everything her sister is not, to
a querulous, quarrelsome spitfire. This
metamorphosis is not clear; from the begin-
ning we see the shrewish, manipulative
elements outweigh her innocence.

The story of Petruchio, Katherine, Bian-
ca, et.’al is, in this version, presented as a
play within a play. Leone, as Christopher
Sly, starts the action off on a note of hilari-
ty in his enactment of a coarse, bawdy
drunk. Sly, in a stupor, is made the butt of
a joke by some noblemen who dress him as
alord and present the comedy of the shrew
for his enjoyment. Sly intermittently com-
ments on the proceedings, and expresses
his approval or disapproval as he sees fit.

On the whole this device of a play
within a play works well. We are
presented with a cogent picture of how
players actually went about putting on a
play in Shakespeare's time. No problems
arise until the end, after all the action in the
“sub-play” has been resolved. The per-
formers, as actors now (rather than the
characters they portray), pack their things
up and exit. Sly is brought back to his
original supine position. He awakens and
goes off to whip his own wife into shape as
he has seen done in his fantastic “dream.”
All this is rather weak and anti-climactic
after the scene in which Petruchio and
Katherine are swept up in their marital bliss
and spirit off to bed.

The simplicity of the set and its similari-
ty to reproductions of the Globe Theater
(the circular theater in which Shakespeare's
plays were originally performed) served to
enhance the production. Costuming was
also adequate. It was not overtly elaborate
and, fortunately did not detract from the
action.

Minor textual inconsistencies aside,
SUNYA's presentation of The Taming of
the Shrew was a marvelous rendition of
William Shakespeare's comic themes of il-
lusion versus reality, the potency of love,
and the miracle of personality transforma-
tion. The actors and actresses all turned in
polished performances. Lines were easily
and clearly delivered, considering the in-
tricacies utilized by Shakespeare. The level
of professionalism made this an evening
well-spent and an experience worth
repeating. oO

Back in black?

When independent auditors finally finished
reviewing Student Association’s 1985-86
budget, a $65,000 deficit figure emerged. It’s
not a wonder.

SA was a bit naive back then and assumed
that all SA funded groups are headed by
accounting majors. SA gave groups budgets
that collectively added up to more than SA had
in cold hard cash. SA assumed that each group
could make back some money and hence gave
the groups what are termed ‘‘income lines.’’
They indictate how much each group would
have to earn in order to break even.

Needless to say, with factors such as the
increased drinking age, groups didn’t make
back the money they were supposed to and SA
lost — bigtime. Perhaps SA learned a lesson
from most credit cards companies: students can
be a bad risk.

So nowadays, SA officials — led by
Controller Agnes Seminara — are sticking to
one old-fashioned rule that works: don’t spend
money that you don’t have. Eighty percent of
SA’s funded groups are scheduled to receive
straight appropriations if next year’s budget is
approved as it stands now. That means SA
takes in money through the activity fee, spreads
it out among the groups, and in the end, can’t
lose any money on them.

The groups, although operating with smaller
actual budgets, are free to raise money so that
they have more to spend. However, SA won’t
be responsible if they fail.

And unfortunately, failures have been more
frequent than successes lately. Quad boards can
no longer sponsor keg parties in the flag rooms
to take in what used to be easy money. Non-
alcoholic programming is risky at the very least,
and SA would be foolish to act as a creditor
given current circumstances.

Groups such as University Concert Board;
University Cinemas and Torch yearbook are
income-oriented and will continue to have
income lines. And the Food Co-op and
SUNYtunes have regularly lost money in the

“past with income lines, so it’s being proposed

that those two groups also receive straight
appropriations to absorb their expected loss.
Although it appears as though SA is trying to
wash its hands of responsibility, it is in fact
trying to make groups more accountable for
their own finances.

Many groups will probably complain about
budget cuts. Unfortunately, SA had to budget
for $20,600 less than last year because of an
expected decrease in the number of students
paying activity fees. Student Association itself,
however, cut $25,000 from its budget, so few
gripes should hold any weight.

It’s good to see that SA has taken measures
to combat its most serious problem. Let’s hope
SA will continue this commitment in the future.

Rebel yells

In South America, millions of blacks are
crying out for equality and their government
isn’t listening.

In the Soviet Union, 400,000 Jews want to
emigrate out of the country, but their voices
aren’t being heard through the Iron Curtain.

In Poland,-workers are demanding the right
to unionize, but officials are stifling their
methods of organization.

In the Peoples Republic of China, students
are calling for a more democratic form of
government, but the existing government has
dropped a shroud over the universities.

At SUNYA, students are calling for

increased security on Alumni Quad. It seems
someone is finally listening.

“THEY DONT LOOK LIKE PASSIVE SMOKERS To Me...”

Puff the deadly dragon

The year is 1988. You are an ex-smoker, but by force
not by choice. You have adapted well to the ‘‘smoke-free
society’’ laws and can fight off the occasional urge for a
cigarette. . not like some others. Wasn’t it just last week
you saw a furtive figure light up at dusk? He didn’t have
three puffs before the police gunned him down.

Keren Schlomy

If this is the scenario you expect to come out of the
Public Health Council’s anti-smoking regulations, you
have been severely misled. The proposed regulations of
the Council, which will have the force of law, is simple
and fairly thorough. ‘‘No person may smoke or carry a
lighted cigar, cigarette, pipe or any other smoking object
or device in any indoor area open to the public. . .”’(em-
phasis added). The scope of ‘‘open to the public” is large;
including taxis, schools, hospitals, stadiums, elevators
and restrooms. Other areas like resturants and
workplaces will be allowed, if they choose, to offer up to
30 percent of their seating for smoking, the remainder to
be non-smoking. This is not merely a percentile division;
the smoking and non-smoking areas must be ‘‘physically
apart”’ from each other.

Will there be any areas left untouched by these regula-
tions? Yes. Individual hotel rooms, private social func-
tions, tobacco stores and bars would be allowed as ex-
emptions from the Clean Indoor Air proposal. Also,
smokers may continue to smoke unhindered in their own
homes, cars, and any and all outdoor areas.

For the past few years the New York State Legislature
has considered legally enacting anti-smoking regulations,
but although some bills have been passed by the
Assembly, the Rebublicans in the Senate wouldn’t let any
of them out of committee. Unless the Legislature is
specifically opposed to a measure, the Public Health
Council has the right to establish, amend and repeal
sanitary regulations. The question is: does legislative in-
acton (ie. the passing of no law) signify opposition? The
Court of Appeals, New York State’s highest court, said
no in 1969; inaction does not determine intent.

What, then, falls under the heading of ‘‘sanitary
regulations’? The Council is allowed to ‘‘deal with any
matters affecting the security of life or health or preserva-
tion and improvement of public health’’. The open-
endedness of this mandate is astounding, and some peo-
ple have tried to relate the Council’s actions under it to
those of ‘‘Big Brother’; an all encompasing government.

- The tobacco industry, for example, has sent mass mail-
ings to New Yorkers urging them to write their legislators
in oppositon. They play upon the Big Brother aspect, ex-
aggerating it out of proportion, until it seems that if these
regulations are approved there will be no area of one’s life
that the government wont be able to control. Their ob-
vious economic bias does nothing to lend credibility to
their position.

The tobacco industry to this day would argue that there
is not a connection between smoking and lung cancer if
they thought it would do any good. Instead they now
focus their efforts on denying a causal relationship bet-

ween any diseases and second-hand smoke. The Public
Health Council justifies its regulations with the following
findings:

“Reliable studies have shown that breathing second-
hand smoke is a significant health hazard for several
population groups including children, fetuses (and)
elderly people. . .These health hazards include lung
cancer, respiratory infection, decreased exercize
tollerance, bronchoconstriction. . .Exposure to tobacco
smoke precipitates and/or aggrivates allergic
attacks...”
The list goes on.

Thus, as Surgeon General C. Everett Koop stated last
December in his annual report on smoking, ‘‘The right of
the smoker to smoke stops at the point where his or her
smoking increases the disease risk of those occupying the
same environment. Given that there is a medically proven
health hazzard, is it unreasonable to allow the Council to
regulate against it?

Many other states have passed laws against smoking.
28 states prohibit smoking in elevators, hospitals, and on
public transportation, 22 in arenas and theaters, 17 in
public buildings, 14 in resturants and 8 in private work
places. These statistics are cited by proponents of the
Public Health Council’s ‘action as precedent for state
regulation of smoking. New York State would have
restrictions in all of these areas, but the theory is the
same.

“Wasn't it just last week you
saw a furtive figure light up
at dusk.? He didn’t have
three puffs before the police
gunned him down.’’

The action will probably be supported by the majority
of the 70 percent non-smokers in New York. Eventually
some of the smokers may even welcome the regulation as
a chance to help them cut down or quit smoking
altogether.

Unfortunately the restrictions would be of no help to
many of those whom it would most benefit. If parents
continue to smoke (in their houses, cars or wherever) their
children and unborn children will continue to be negative-
ly effected. In fact, there are no sanctions or fines to en-
sure compliance in even the regulated areas. Without any
threat behind it, the regulation is merely an empty
gesture.

Hustle and busless

To the Editor:

I would like to address the article regarding the possible
discontinuation of the Wellington Bus line. In my
understanding it is yet another example of the Ad-
ministration’s insensitivity to student’s needs and
concerns.

For the first two years that I attended this school I lived
on Alumni Quad. My junior year was spent in an apart-
ment on Quail Street, and I now live in an apartment on
Lark Street. In other words, I’m no stranger to the
University Bus Service. I’ve often been tempted to write a
letter on this subject with regard to the weaknesses and
failings of the system, but have always stopped myself
thinking that at least we have such a system. Well, now I
guess it’s time to write.

It is absolutely no surprise to the administration that a
very healthy portion of the student body lives off campus.
Some do so out of choice, but the bottom line remains,
there is a huge housing shortage on campus. Every fall
more and more freshman and sophomores are tripled up
in rooms not big enough for two people and the ad-
ministrators count on students moving off campus. It is
quite easy to see that the University does not have the
facilities to house all of its students, yet each year they
allow in more and more students. They boast of the big
-solution in the construction of a new complex on Fuller
Road but anyone who knows what they are building will
tell you that it does not even address the issue. As explain-
ed by President O’Leary last fall in his on-air interview on
WCDB, they are building a 400 bed complex complete
with kitchenettes etc... I guess that’s great for grad
students but they aren’t the ones that should really be
targeted. Not too many grad students live in dorms to
begin with. And is 400 beds really going to solve any
problem?

Apparently, certain administrators do not think that
there even is a problem. “‘It’s difficult for me to see why

we should continue it — the purpose has gone to the
wayside, and the reason is no longer there,’’ Hartigan
said. Do they really believe that the only students who live
off campus live in what the press calls the student ghetto?
Believe you me there are students who live all over the ci-
ty! ‘‘Other than those mandatory stops, the buses would
only stop to pick up a few off-campus students,”’ Ander-
son said. Either they believe that there are only a few off-
campus students or that only a few of us ride the bus. That
second assumption would suggest that most off-campus
students have their own cars, or magic carpets or walk to
school; needless to say, they are wrong.

It is dangerous enough as the current system stands that
students have to walk down the unlit Partridge and On-
tario streets; if the Wellington was stopped there would
be students walking from all over the downtown portion
of the city to the nearest uptown stop (that being Draper
Hall - yes civilization does extend beyond Robin Street). I
guess our administrators want our students who live
downtown to be mugged and raped. If this subject gets
you as angry as it does me I suggest you write President
O’Leary a letter and let him know you are standing up for
your rights.

No respect

To the Editor:

On Wednesday, April Ist I went to Paco Duarte’s room
to speak to him. During the conversation I noticed one of
Maria Maglione’s posters in his trash. I didn’t want to
refer to the poster immediately so I mentioned that so-
meone had told me they had seen him rip down some of
Maria’s posters. He then explained that he had been with
a group that had torn down some of Maria’s posters, but
that he didn’t personally tear any of them down.

I then asked him about the poster in his garbage can
and he replied that he did not know how the two posters
got there (I only saw one), but that there were other in-
dividuals living in the suite. I left the converstion at that
because I didn’t think anything more would be ac-
complished by me pursuing the matter with Paco. I per-
sonally feel hurt because I spent a consideable amount of
time posting Maria’s posters. To find a poster in the trash
of a suite that is full of people strongly involved with the
Student Association is a slap in the face.

The removing of a candidate’s poster is illegal accor-
ding to election Policies. Paco’s excuse that he was only
in the company of a group that had torn down Maria’s
posters doesn’t wash with me. This is a very serious act
and the least he could have done was to not allow them to
tear down the posters. The fact that they would do such a
thing in the presence of the president of the Student
Association shows me the amount of respect they have
for their President.

The other side

To the Editor:

I would just like the chance to respond to Ethan Chazin
(‘Fashionably Yours’’, ASP, March 24) and all the other
NYC, upstate and out-of-state people here who cringe
when you tell them you’re from Long Island. For this
response, I have a something to say. Not everyone from
Long Island is form Great Neck, Dix Hills, or Commack,
not everyone from Long Island drives a Mercedes, Audi,
or BMW, and not everyone from Long Island ‘“Tawks
loyk this’?! Believe you me, life on the South (read:
poorer) Shore of L.I. is many steps removed from
JAPpy. ;

Iam from North Babylon, a place where the median in-
come is about $20,500, and whose 1986 high school
graduating class was 18 percent black, 40 percent Italian,
and 3 percent Hispanic. The number of Jewish kids
(myself included) numbered 4. Make no mistake, the kind
of JAP Mr. Chazin talks about in his letter irritates me
just the same.

All I’m trying to say is that being from Long Island, or
even being from Long Island and being Jewish doesn’t
necessarily make one a JAP. How many JAPs do you
know that would get up at 6:15 to wash dishes for UAS? I
do, twice a week. Just stop using the terms ‘“‘Long
Islander’’ and ‘JAP’? interchangeably. They really

shouldn’t be.
— Ric Stark

No regrets

To the Editor:

For the past several weeks I have had the unique oppor-
tunity to read my name in the ASP on several occasions.
The subject of these articles, editorials and letters is a
message that I wrote on the message board on the GALA
office door. It was not, as your paper implies by its
repeated use of the word “‘graffiti,’’ scrawled on the door
in paint. After an issue of the ASP appeared without my

name init, I felt that the issue had been laid to rest. I was

wrong. The industrious Mr. Leonard, spokesperson for
the GALA organization, saw an opportunity to use the
ASP to freely advertise for the Gay and Lesbian Pride
and Awareness Week. I would like to say a few things on
my own behalf at this time.

What I wrote, even taking into account that it was in
poor taste, was my opinion. I am, I believe, entitled to my:
opinion, Mr. Leonard is entitled to his opinion, even if
that means putting the symbols of his organization on the
windows of his office for the entire university population
to see every day. As a Roman Catholic, I am offended by
these blatant displays of homosexuality. As for the
message itself, be assured Mr. Leonard, that I meant
every word of it and you may take it personally.

— Paul ‘‘Blotto’’ Mahoney

The finest acts

To the Editor:

I am writing in response to the allegations made in the
article charging that racial discrimination played a role in
the choosing of the acts which appeared on Telethon’s TV
hour. Although the article was written as the result of a
personal disappointment, I do not wish to make the issue
into a personal one, since accusations of racial
discrimination are far-reaching and damaging to the in-
tegrity of the Telethon organization as a whole.

As the Talent chair, along with my co-chair Bob Miller,
the responsibility for reviewing all the acts for Telethon
rested with us. The acts chosen for TV hour were done so
based on their performance at the audition. Bob and I
had no foresight in seeing how an act might improve from
the time of the audition to that of the actual Telethon,
therefore I repeat all choices were based on the quality of
the act at their audition.

To answer the Black Gold Dancers more specifically,
six acts with black performers auditioned for us.one ap-
peared on TV hour accompanying a singer, and one did
not request being considered for TV hour. Four acts re-
mained. Bob and I would not compromise our authority
by choosing an act for TV hour we didn’t believe deserved
it simply because of race. That would be a form of
discrimination. Bob and I were allotted 45 minutes in
which to schedule entertaining, top-quality acts, and we
chose what we saw as the best acts based on the auditions.

Telethon’s purpose is to get the SUNYA community to
raise money for local children’s charities. Bob and I have
worked since last June on Telethon, and it has taken
precedence in our lives. We asked for students’ help in
donating their time and talent to help us reach our goal.
Whether or not an act is seen during TV hour is secon-
dary. The SUNYA community should be a united family
joined together to help make Telethon a success. Race
should not and is not a factor when we are all working
together for the benefit of those less fortunate, and I can-
not emphasize enough the fact that color was not a factor
in any decisions made for Telethon and TV hour.

Telethon stands for peace, love, unity, and charity,
Please remember this before slandering an organization
trying desperately to improve the lives of members of the
community.

— Valerie Walsh
Talent Chair, Telethon ‘87

Opinion, not fact

To the Editor:

In Friday’s ASP(April 3,1987) on page six a slanderous
article was printed entitled, ‘‘Lack of minority TV Hour
acts reflects Telethon discrimination’? written by
ASUBA’s Black Gold dance troup members. I was so
disgusted with this article I almost threw up. I cannot
believe that the ASP could print such an article so full of
lies and slanders against Walsh and Miller and the entire
Telethon organization.

The staff of Telethon works very hard throuhout the
entire year to raise money for children’s charities
throughout the capitol district. I couldn’t believe that an
article slandering them would be larger and more in the
public’s eyé than the-article which says what kind of a
successful year telethon has had.

Being a minority does not give a person the right to go
around slandering other people’s names. Everyone is en-
titled to their opinions, that I believe, but their opinions
do not belong in an article that will be read by many as
fact. I am very disappointed in the ASP for printing such
slanders. My opinion of the ASP as a fine and decent
school paper just dropped to the level of so-so. This type
of article should be in the editorial section or as a letter to
the editor as this one is. :

— Deborah Donner
Editor’s note:

The ‘‘Beyond the Majority’ column is a forum
through which specific minority concerns can be address-
ed. The column in the Friday, April 3 issue of the ASP,
however, clearly represented the interests of specific per-
sons and therefore should have appeared in the editorial
section of this paper. We apologize to the Telethon ‘87
staff and the University community for any
misunderstanding this may have caused.

Alumni rally

“Front Page

building. Ralliers maintained that
this would not be an effective

measure to prevent further
incidents.

One suggestion that was raised
concerned re-locking the front
doors of each hall with the same
key, allowing residents to visit
friends in other buildings.

This proposal would enable
residents to identify anyone
knocking on the door as a
“suspicious character.”” Present-
ly, students only have keys which
provide access to their own
buildings.

The difficulty with this pro-
posal-is an increased safety risk in
the event that a single key is lost
or duplicated.

Another suggestion raised by
one student was for resident
assistants (RAs) to ‘earn their
keep’’ by patrolling assigned
areas.

This idea was rebuffed by most
present because ‘‘RAs have a
tough job as it is,” according to
one student.

James Lamb, chair of the Stu-
dent Community Committee of
Central Council was very pleased
with the way the rally went. ‘‘We
planned this rally in only two
days, and the students who show-
ed up displayed a genuine concern
for safety on campus.””

“The positive reaction we got
out of the University
demonstrated that the rally was a
success,’’ Lamb said.

SUNYA students flying south for spring break

By Nicole Nogid
EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

Sprawled out on an enormous
beach towel, your golden tan
body soaks up the tropical sun.
Pina colada in your hand, you
peer out of your mirrored
sunglasses at bikini-clad beauties
and muscle-bound surfers who
beckon you to join them in a
game of volleyball.

As you get up to go toward
them, an all-too-familiar heart-
stopping sound pierces the air.
Nervously dropping your pina
colada, you painfully realize that
the sun-filled beachfront paradise
is actually a SUNYA dorm room,
and as you reach for the alarm
clock, you realize you’re late for
Calculus.

Well, spring break doesn’t have
to be just a dream for long. Only
four days remain before SUNYA
students are set loose on southern
climates.

In these last days before vaca-
tion, students are thinking ahead
to their plans for spring break,
and although some are planning
exotic trips for the vacation, Ft.
Lauderdale seems to be passe as a
spring break getaway.

Senior Joanna Feldman is
“Going to Las Vegas because it’s
something to do.””

“People keep talking about
Acapulco and the Bahamas. [But]
definitely not Ft. Lauderdale
because of all the police action
there, and people are being
restricted more,’’ Feldman said.

“T plan to go to Hawaii this
spring break to go surfing. Most
of my friends are going there with
me. We all wanted to go there
because the weather is really
beautiful and I have a house on

the water,’’ said senior Scott
Spindel.

Senior James Darrah said he is
going to St. Croix with his
girlfriend and that his family

owns a house there.

“It’s less exciting when you go
away to a place that is heavily
populated with college kids, like
Ft. Lauderdale,” Darrah said.

Adam Berman, a junior, is
looking forward to a ‘“‘cruise to
the Carribbean.”

Most of my friends are going to

Acapulco, but I can’t go because
my parents wanted to take a fami-
ly vacation,’’ Berman said.

While some SUNYA students
soak up the tropical sun, others
won’t be able to get away this spr-
ing break.

Freshman Emily Siken is plann-
ing to work.

“Only a couple of my friends
are going away and they are going
either to Acapulco or the
Bahamas,”’ she said, adding that

EZRA MAURER UPS,
the vacation hot spot this year is
“Anywhere the sun is.””

Junior Marshall Garland said
he regrets that he won’t be able to
go away this spring break, but
said he is “‘looking forward to
staying home, spending time with
my family and taking a road trip
to some area schools.””

Some students said they will be
spending their vacation studying.
Junior Bill Lichtenfeld, who is
to study for the MCATS this spr-
ing break, said he ‘‘would like to

be able to go to Acapulco or the
Bahamas because I went to Ft.
Lauderdale last year and couldn’t
get into any of the bars.””

“I felt that I missed out on the
night life last year because I
couldn’t get into any of the bars.
It seems like most people who are
going away are going to
Acapulco because it’s inexpen-
sive, with guaranteed good
weather, and there is no drinking
age,’’ Lichtenfeld said.

I’m going to Maryland for
three days and then coming
home, writing a 10-page paper
and studying for accounting,’
said Blaine Messinger, a
sophomore.

Many students will be travelling
to Acapulco for their vacation.

Rich Doren, a SUNYA junior
is “going to Acapulco with 10
other fraternity brothers because
T’ve heard it was an awesome, un-
forgettable experience.”

Doren said he ‘‘decided on go-
ing to Acapulco because the
drinking age is 18 and the clubs
are unbéelievable.’’ Fort Lauder-
dale is ‘‘overrated,”’ said Doren
who has ‘‘been there a number of
times” and is “ready for a
change.”’

Allen Kalman, a SUNYA
senior is also going to Acalpulco
through his ‘‘own travel agent
because I didn’t want to deal with
any of the large groups,” adding
that he has “‘gotten a little tired of
going to Ft. Lauderdale and walk-
ing up and down the strip.”’

Doren agreed, saying, ‘‘I think
Ft. Lauderdale is definitely out
this year because the strip is really
sleazy and the weather is un-
predictable.”* ia

O’Leary reacts on WCDB to campus concerns

By Melissa Green

President Vincent O’Leary responded to
a variety of questions about the proposed
New York state budget for ’87-’88, racial
concerns on campus, and Mayfest during a
WCDB—91 FM call-in radio show Thurs-
day evening.

Created by James Doellefeld, Director
of Campus Life, the interview sessions
were recently enstated last year, with the
latest one occurring during the measles
“outbreak. .

Accompanying O’Leary in the studio
were Doellefeld, and Henry Kirchner, ac-
ting vice president for Student Affairs.
The interview was conducted by WCDB
News Editor Chris Kendall.

The proposed New York State budget
for ’87-’88, remains under discussion by
the legislature , while a vote is still pen-
ding.

“SUNYA has the largest number of
minorities in its history. . .and that’s no
accident.’”’

— Vincent O’Leary

According to O’Leary, if SUNYA
receives less money this year from the
state, it will mean a reduction in as many
as 27 staff positions. Students, as a result,
could find it harder to get into classes due
to a reduction in professors.

“But there is no talk of raising tuition,”’
said O’Leary.

O’Leary added that he is disappointed
that students are not as active politically as
they have been in the past on this issue.

“They don’t write letters to their
legislators as much or carry on as many
activities.”

Another major concern raised during
the interview was the recent increase in
recial incidents on campus.

According to O’Leary, the Speak Out
Against Racism held last Monday which
resulted in a sit-in in his office ‘‘was
great.’’ He said “I was not awere that they
had planned such a rally, but once I found
out, I was glad to talk with them.”

ASUBAfest
<3

ASUBA was not included in any of tghe
decision-making for the concert, including
that of the price, date, and name of the
event.

In rebuttal to these allegations, Fox ex-
plained that the UCB general board
meetings are open to the public, and that
Alston was present at all the meetings
which involved discussion of ASUBAfest.

This decision by the general board is
made with the understanding that once a
bid is accepted, it is taken as a binding
contract.

For the reason of the binding bed
system, UCB alleges that they have had to
have leeway in the negotiation process.

Gitting said that “‘We in ASUBA feel
that Fox, acting as wour agent, acted

haphazardly and signed the deal.”
The plaintiffs.continued on to say that

since they attempted to back out, and

Racial tension has always been a Univer-
sity issue because it is a fundamental issue
of society, said O’Leary.

This problem is also being experienced
on other campuses, and in the high
schools, as seen in news headlines from
last week, according to O’Leary.

It’s important to know we have done
things in the past [to compat racism,’”’
O’Leary said.

For instance,- O’Leary cited World
Week, an event which ‘‘celebrates the dif-
ferences on campus.””

“SUNYA has the largest number of
minorities in its history on campus this
year and that’s not by accident,” said
O'Leary.

“There is a lot more to be done
though,” he added. ‘‘We have to win
small victories to win the battle.”

wrote a letter to SA President and defen-
dant Paco Duarte demanding that the
event not be called ASUBAfest;, that the
money was not for ASUBAfest and should
be returned.

Fox, however, made the rebuttal that no
parts of the rider had been broken and
therefore the money could still be used. He
explained to the court that if the date of
ASUBAfest was of prime importance,
than it should have been put into the rider
back during the SA budget debates in
April of last year.

Bill McCann, Central Council vice-chair
defended Fox’s statement to the court by
saying that the ASUBA-UCB controversy
was the ‘‘Biggest issue in the whole [1986]
budget meeting. Both organizations hash-
ed out this set of riders.”

Central Council on February 11 voted to
give allocate the set funds for ASUBAfest
to the concert, and to call it ASUBAfest.

Univ. of Wisconsin newspapers
clash in an attempted takeover

COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE —
Echoing the merger wars waged
among larger news organizations,
a conservative University of
Wisconsin campus paper attemp-
ted two weeks ago to take over
the liberal campus daily.

The conservative Badger
Herald’s attempt — abetted by a
triumphant slate of conservatives
that just won control of the stu-
dent government — to take over
the liberal Daily Cardinal,
however, ended in a stalemate
when UW’s dean of students pull-
ed campus police out of the fray.

“Tt happens just like in the real
world, said Tom Tolnicki, head
of the Associated Collegiate Press
(ACP), a Minneapolis-based cam-
pus media group. ‘“‘If two papers
are competing, they do battle,”’
he added.

In this case, Badger Herald
Publisher Richard Ausman said
business concerns led him to the
takeover attempt, and that he was
hoping to create a single healthy
daily campus paper to replace the
two struggling dailies.

“*Ausman says the purpose was
all financial,” replied Cardinal
Editor John Keefe,‘‘but lots of

people say he’s trying to crush the
liberal voice on campus.”

The 95-year-old Cardinal’s
board of directors — now under
control of Ausman’s friend David
Atkins and other members of the
Bob Kasten School of Driving, a
conservative party that swept to
power in January’s student
government elections — voted in
early March to replace Keefe and
the Cardinal business manager
Tim Carroll with Herald staff
members, then eventually close
the Cardinal.

Keefe and Cardinal business
manager Tim Carroll attended the
meeting, and protested that the
decision violated the paper’s
bylaws, but were then fired.

After the meeting, Keefe recall-
ed, Ausman, Atkins and Herald
Editor Brian Beneker called in
campus police to evict Cardinal
staffers and to force the business
staff to open the paper’s financial
records.

Keefe and Carroll appealed to
Associate Dean of Students Roger
Howard, who ordered the police
to leave the Cardinal’s office, and
ruled Keefe would run the paper
until the board’s actions could be

reviewed by an “‘impartial third
party.”

“He feared things could
become violent if new people were {
let in, so the police were informed
to ensure public and property
safety,”’ Keefe explained.

The Cardinal, which Keefe
readily conceded is ‘‘left-
leaning,’’ is a private business,
controlled by a board consisting
of five students, four faculty
members, and the paper’s editor
and business manager. Only the

The victory for the new power
plant ended a string of 84 straight
triumphs for cars powered by the
traditional English-built
Cosworth engines. The streak
dated to June 7, 1981 when the
late Mike Mosley drove an Eagle
powered by a stock block
Chevrolet to victory at
Milwaukee, Wis.

After Fittipaldi was gone, An-
dretti eased the pace somewhat.
But his average speed of 85.330
mph still broke his son’s year-old
race record of 80.968.

Asked if he was listening for
problems in the new engine late in
the race, Andretti said, ‘‘No way.
The only thing I heard was a
Chevrolet engine buzzing perfect-
ly. The car was picture perfect all
day.”

Andretti, who drives for Oscar-
winning actor Paul Newman and
Chicago businessman Carl Haas,
earned $97,410 for the victory.

Tom Sneva was third Sunday,
forllowed by Michael Andretti
and Josele Garza of Mexico, both

It’s tournament time
for Albany intramural!
basketball teams

By Mike Brewster
* SPORTS EDITOR

One has to wonder about the intelligence of the pro-
motors of last night’s Sugar Ray-Hagler fight.

Incredibly, they scheduled the fight for what is tradi-
tionally the most festive of sports nights in America:
opening night of the ACIA basketball play-offs.

Under the leadership of Dr. L and through television
revenue, the intramural hoop playoffs have been ex-
panded to a 32 team format. However, this has not stop-
ped many teams from pushing to let everyone into the
tournament. Several borderline at-large bids which were
given out are prompting some intramural observers to
aruge that due to the wealth of talent, everyone should
be allowed.

However, as Dr. L is well aware, if the Albany in-
tramural tournament changes it’s format to allow
everyone in, the NCAA tournament
and NIT two fledgling offshoots of
our tournament, are sure to follow. Sports
Any affiliation with these tour-
rrnents should be avoided so as not Column
to tarnish the image of the league.

Because most of Albany’s basketball talent is located
on the east side of the campus, several top teams have
had to be moved to the western geographical region.
The most notable of these is The New Style, a team with
a4-0 record and a penchant for blowing people out. “If
(five-foot-11 swingman Mike) Marsh can stay healthy,
the New Style will undoubtedly win it,” said noted
basketball observer Mark Lubelsky.

No one can really be sure about the New Style,
however. They are shrouded in mystery and refuse to
release information about her new acquisition, simply
known as “‘Jim’’. Some even suggest that team gurus
Ben Mammot, whose passing habits closely resemble
those of Freddie Banks, and Magic Borik have taken the
team into-séclusion ala John Thompson to protect the
squad from nosy media types from the ASP.

However, the New Style is far from the only team
with a shot at winning the whole thing.

Air ZBT is ranked first overall and thus were seeded
first in the eastern geographical bracket. The fact that
they won’t have to travel gives them a big edge.

Package Check, ranked number two in the Dr. L poll
but number three by the American Association of
Sportswriters, received the number one seed in the
Midwest. Package Check is the defending champion of
league II and will be banking on the experience factor
when it gets down to crunch time.

The top four is rounded out by the Basketbrawlers, in
essence an unknown quanity at this time, They may pro-
ve to be the paper tigers of the tourney. Look for them
to take an Illinois type exit in the first or second round.

Who will be the Austin Peays of the tournament?
Tough to tell. Pyremesis, despite the fact they have
perhaps the worst name in intramural history, are
always capable of an upset. And C.C.C.P., despite not
being able to get the rights to Andreas Sabonis, still may
make a run. But to make predictions for dark horses is
pointless, there are too many good teams. League one?
Too easy. Black Sheep, 5-0, will beat CYO in the final.
Bobby’s Boys, who would have little chance to win the
league two crown, are way out of their class.

The League two winner? It’s tough to see Package
and Air ZBT matching up with The New Style. That,
plus the shot. blocking ability of Pete McElearney
should bring The: New Style their first championship.

Tickets for the Final Four can be gotten by contacting
Dr.L or your local Ticketron agent. Oo

Great Dane stickmen fall to RIT

By Stef McDonald
ASSOCIATE SPORTS EDITOR

On a slippery field and against a
team nationally ranked, the Albany
State lacrosse team fell on Friday to
RIT, 17-6.

sophomore defenseman Mike Gor-
don, “‘but that goes both ways.’’

“and they had better mechanics —

“They had really good perimeter

Good perimeter shooting and bet-
ter mechanics can only be expected
from a team ranked eighth in the na-
tion, but the outcome of the first
half is attributed also to the Danes’
play.

knew we had to score.”” That the
Dane squad did, but not enough to

The rainy, cold weather did not
affect the RIT team in the way that it
did the Danes. To combat playing on
the muddy field, the Danes enacted a
zone defense, trying to slow down
the pace of the game.

“We thought we could slow down
the pace and play with them,’’ said
Coach Tom Fogerty. “But they
scored right away.”

“They scored and kept on scor-
ing,”’ said Gordon, “We lost it in the
first half.””

The RIT team took early control
of the game and forced the Danes to
play a game of catching up. But that
the Danes did not do.

From the onset the RIT team had
the momentum — ending the first
quarter 5-0 and the half, 11-2.

“We felt comfortable with the
pace,’”’ commented Coach Fogerty.
But comfortable or not, the pace was
advantageous only to RIT and RIT
had control of the half.

“The zone defense made them
wait, but they were patient and they
had very good shots,” conceded
Fogerty.

Av the end of the first half, the
Danes came out of the zone defense,
retreated to man-to-man, and
although the RIT team kept posses-
sion for most of the second half, the
Danes did score four goals and they
did hold RIT to just six.

“We played very well,” said
goalie Anthony Danzi, who, com-
bined with Tommy Ott, accounted
for twenty saves.

But even playing very well could
not give the Danes a victory. There
were again penalty problems and the
task of getting the ball to the attack
to make the shots.

“We lost alot of ground balls,”’
said Fogerty, ‘“‘and the penalty situa-
tion really hurt us.””

RIT outshot the Danes 41-25,
eight of which belonged to co-
captain Tim Vottis, who was held
scoreless, They also picked up over
twenty more ground balls than the
Danes. And the Danes collected a

Dane relay secures win, 79-75

By Mark Lubelsky
STAFF WRITER

The Albany State men’s track team propelled
themselves to a 79-75 victory over Springfield College by
winning the relay, the last event of the match.

Albany was down by one point entering the event when
All American indoor runners David Rinehart and Steven
Thompson clinched the victory for Albany with their per-
formances in the relay.

Coach Vives traditionally gives the player who provid-
ed the key performances in a meet the ‘‘athlete of the
meet award.’’ Tricaptains John Glaser and Michael
Bizovi shared that honor while turning in career best per-
formances. Glaser won the 300 meter steeplechase with a
time of 9:50.1. Bizovi won the triple jump with his per-
sonal best distance performance of 49 feet.

Bizovi also won the 110 high hurdles. Running into a
strong headwind, he finished with a time of 16.4 seconds.
Later, he capped his contribution to the team’s victory
with a second place finish in the 400 meter intermediate
hurdles.

The third of the tricaptains, Tim Hoff, ran the 500
meters in 4:01 for a first place finish and a personal best

time.

Two freshmen, David Spencer and Carlos Brunet, were
also instrumental to Albany’s last second victory. Spencer
took second in the 3000 meter steplechase by improving
on his best time by twenty seconds for a 10:03 finishing
time. The consistent Brunet won the shotput with a throw
of 43 feet six inches, despite that the distance is below his
personal best.

Coach Vives’ belief ‘‘in challenging his younger players
to contribute,’’ has obviously yielded dividends.

In addition to providing the crucial performances in the
final event, All-Americans Rinehart and Thompson also
won in individual events. Rinehart won the 400 meter and
Thompson ran the 800 meters in 1:57 flat for a first place
finish.

Coach Vives ‘‘felt that the team worked well together
and was very pleased with the contributions of the
younger athletes.””

Last year Albany lost this same meeting by a score of
110 to 60, primarily due to their weaknesses in field events
such as the shotput and javelin.

However, the performances of younger athletes such as
Brunet have gone far toward eliminating Albany’s
weaknesses in the field events. oO

Andretti extends family dynasty

(AP) Nobody, least of all Mario An-
dretti, can explain his family’s magic
touch on the picturesque seaside race
course through the streets of Long
Beach,

“We just like this place,”” Andret-
ti said Sunday following his third
runaway victory in four years in the
Grand prix of Long Beach Indy-car
race.

The string of victories by the
47-year-old driving master, a former
Formula One world champion, 1969
Indianapolis 500 winner and three-
time Indy-car series champion, was
broken only by his eldest son,
Michael, in 1986.

“T really don’t know why this

keeps happening, but I’m sure not

looking for any changes,” said the
record-breaking winner, who opened
the new season with his 48th career
Indy-car victory.

Al Unser Jr., who was second here
for the second straight year, crossed
the finish line in the 95-lap,
158.65-mile event one lap and 29.35
seconds behind the elder Andretti.

“If it ain’t his son. it’s him.”
Unser joked. “One of these days,
we'll get the Andrettis out of Long
Beach.”

Asked if there was any way he
could have stayed with the elder An-
dretti Sunday, Unser laughed out
loud.

Only former Formula One rival
Emerson Fittipaldi, a two-time

world champion, was able to keep
Andretti in sight. But the speedy
Brazilian was gone from the race

“Emerson was definitely keeping
me honest,”’ said Andretti, who
started: from the pole and led all the
way in a gleaming red Lola powered
by one of the new Chevrolet-Ilmor
engines. ‘‘He was running as good as
I was. It made us go real quick. We.
were flat out from the beginning.’’

“T started worrying about the fuel
situation, but the problem never
materialized,” he said. ‘‘That

Great Dane tennis teams triumphant at home

Men beat Skidmore to even record

By Mike Brewster
SPORTS EDITOR

After the Great Danes men’s tennis team
suffered a season opening 5-4 loss to the
Binghamton Colonials inside the newly
opened bubble, it looked as if the bad luck
associated with the bubble since it’s incep-
tion was continuing, this time showing
itself through the tennis team.

The Bubble’s jinx, however, couldn’t
stop the Danes on Friday. They beat Skid-
more 7-2 and evened their record at 1-1.

**You can’t attack as much when you’re
playing in the bubble,’’ said freshman
Lary Rosenbloom, but it’s good practice
for your baseline game. We’re going to be
happy to get outside.’”

Junior Mare Singer, the number one
singles player, lost in straight sets.

At second singles is Rossenbloom, who
was playing only his second second-singles
match of his career after moving up from
fourth last fall. He scored a convincing
6-1, 6-1 victory.

Playing in the number three slot is the
sole senior on the squad, Dave Zobler.
Zobler used his patented baseline game to
outlast his opponent, 6-4, 6-4.

Dane freshman Mike Worth, playing in
the number four position, lost a marathon
three set match.

The latter part of the line-up played very
well. At fifth singles is co-captain -Tom
Roe, and the junior from Castleton won
his match.

Freshman Scoot Cooper, starts at the
number six position. He also won by an

impressive score. “‘We have a few new
guys at some positions, like Cooper,” said
Rosenbloom. The doubles teams fared
even better. All three doubles teams won
convincing victories. “‘Everybody is com-
ing along,”’ said Rosenbloom. ‘‘Once we
get outside we'll be playing all right.” O

Netwomen defeat William Smith, 5-4

By Danny Rosenthal
STAFF WRITER

Last spring, when the Danes traveled to
William Smith, they came very close to
winning.

The score was 4-2, rain began to fall, the
match could not be completed.

“‘We took that one as a moral victory,”’
Coach Myers said, ‘‘but we have been
looking forward to beating them
officially.””

Saturday afternoon William Smith came
to Albany to challenge the Danes, and
similar circumstances almost forced this
match to end, once again, without an of-
ficial winner. Fortunately for Coach
Meyer’s team, the match was completed,
and the Danes came out on top by a score
of 5-4.

The match took place on nearby indoor
courts. The time that they had to play the
match was limited, so not only did the
Danes have William Smith to contend
with, they also had to keep a close eye on
the clock.

At first, it appeared that they would
breeze to victory. The Danes were leading
4-0 as they took the first four singles mat-
ches. Coach Meyers said that, ‘Caryn,
Liz, Ellen and Laurie each played very
strongly in their wins. Their matches were
over with plenty of time left, and I thought
we had the whole thing wrapped up.””

The match was far from over, though,

as William Smith won fifth and sixth
singles and first and third doubles.

The first doubles team lost 10-9, and
Meyers felt that ‘‘this was a match that we
teally should have won.’ Meyers was
especially upset over this loss because
William Smith did not have their best
player playing first doubles. Instead, she
played third doubles. Normally, the best
players should be playing in the top slot.
Coach Meyers agrees with this, as she said,
“| don’t want to accuse them of anything,
but in my opinion, those type of tactics are
a bit unusual.””

So, with one half hour of court time re-
maining, the Danes’ hopes rested on the
second doubles team of Liz Feinberg and
Ellen Katz. Both teams anxiously watched
both the points and the clock, and with
three. minutes remaining Feinberg and
Katz prevailed in an eight game proset,
winning by the score of 8-4,

“Going into the match, I expected it to
be close, but having time as such an impor-
tant factor put even more pressure on
everyone. Overall, I was pleased with
everybody’s play and I was especially hap-
py with the performance of the first four
singles players.”

This was the Danes’ first win of the spr-
ing season, as they even their record at 1-1.
They will have two tough matches this
week: Wednesday at home against Vassar,
and on Thursday, they will go on the road
to take on Army. C

Dane softball team sweeps debut doubleheader

By Denise Pisapia

After being rained out on March 31, the Albany State
women’s softball team finally took the diamond and won
both of their opening games against Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute (RPI) Thrusday.

The team began by defeating RPI 11-2 in the first
game, and finished off the action by winning the second
game, 4-1. The key to both victories was the Danes’
defense.

“We had two great defensive games,’’ commented
coach Lee Rhenish. ‘‘The players worked together and
the results were positive.”

The Danes success stemmed from the performance of
freshman pitcher Karen Smiley. Smiley only gave up two
hits in each game. “‘Karen [Smiley] played very well in her
first collegiate game,”’ said captain Jeannie D’Ambrosi.
“She was really tough out on the field.”’

“] was nervous about the first game,’’ confessed
Smiley ‘‘but everyone behind me [on the field] helped a
great deal.” In addition, Smiley struck out a total of four
RPI players in each game.

The first game was highlighted by a triple hit by left
fielder Barbara DePesa in the fourth inning. The hit
drove in two runs, giving DePesa two of her four runs
batted in for the game.

RPI’s pitcher McNeill walked the first three batters for
the Danes in the first inning, leading to three first inning
runs and giving Albany an early lead of 3-0.

The Danes pulled far ahead in the fourth inning with
six of their nine batters scoring.

Both runs for RPI in the first game were scored by
McNeill, in the fourth and sixth innings.

The final two runs for the Danes were scored in the
fifth inning by Laura Dugo and Donna Achen, both
junior transfer students.

The second game was filled with many great defensive
plays. Coach Rhenish observed that the Danes were quick
on their feet when it came to defensive play.

During the fourth inning of the second game a ground
ball was hit to senior second baseman Sokol who tagged
RPI’s Tadjbakhsit and threw to first base where Kathy
Chichester caught the ball for the second out. In a game

of defensive gems, this was the best of the day.

Defensively, the Danes also excelled in the area of
fielding bunts. They were able to react with ease to an
RPI player bunting the ball. In the second inning third
baseman Monique Romano dove for a bunted ball, land-
ed on her knees, and threw the ball while still kneeling to
first ball for an out. r

“That was a really difficult play,”” observed coach
Rhenish, ‘Monique (Romano) really came through.”

As in the first game, Albany’s first two hitters, Captain
Carmen Guzman and senior Romano, scored runs in the
first inning. The team finished off the game in the fifth
inning, giving the Danes their final two runs for a final
score of 4-1.

DAVE ISAAC UPS
The Albany softball team is now 2-0 for the season.

“Despite the cold and the rain, the team came together
and really showed what we could accomplish as a team,””
said Sokol. ‘‘We got our communication together and
worked as a team.””

“I am pleased with the players performance,” said
Coach Rhenish, ‘We were having a lot of problems with
the rain, but we got off to a good start. During practice
we stuck to the basics and it paid off,’’ she continued.

The team will face New Paltz on March 7. ‘‘New Paltz
will be a really tough team,’’ commented D’Ambrosi,
“they are one of the few teams that beat us last season.””

Both Coach Rhenish and the team are looking forward
to the rest of the season in hopes of being one of the two

teams to represent the conference in the SUNYAC’s,_ :

Lloyd Moseby homered and drove in three runs and
Jimmy Key pitched three-hit ball for six innings Monday
to lead the Blue Jays over the Indians 7-3.

Willie Upshaw also homered as Toronto rapped 11
