Off To Kentucky

by David Osborn

After being denied a bid to the
Eastern Regional of the NCAA
Division II playoffs early Sunday
afternoon, a potential uproar from
the Albany State basketball team
was coated over when they were
notified later inthe day that they had
been picked to play in the Southern
Regional bracket.

For the Danes, a third crack at the
national championship in the five-
year old event will begin Friday
night when they are paired with
Savannah St. of Georgia in an open-
ing round game in Danville, Ken-
tucky. Centre College, the host
school, and Lane College of
‘Tennessee will meet in the other
semifinal with the winners playing
for the title Saturday night
Although Albany failed (0 receive
fa ticket to the Eastern Regional, the
local committee felt the Danes
deserved to be inthe tournamentand
recommended such a moye to the
national selection committee, The
six-man group governing the selec-
tion process nationwide then tabbed
Albany to go southward due to a
Jack of quality local teams in that
region,

“11m just happy to be in the tour-
nament but 1 't see how we were
picked fifth in our region behind
Pratt," said Dane coach Dick
Suuers, referring to the school that
received the final eastern bid. “I'm
gonna just try and get as much infor-
mation on the teams in the regional
‘us possible, but { know they haven't
done well nationally lately.”

Should Albany win the southern
bracket, they would advance to the
quarterfinals in the 32-team tourna-
ment. Preliminary NCAA plans
schedule the southern champ to host
the winner of the Great Lakes region
in the quarterfinals, Those plans
could be switched by the national
committee but in all likelihood
Albany would host that game if they
can escape from the south unscath-
fed. The final four will advance to
Augustana College in Rock Island,
on March 16 and 17,

Before the Danes could secure a
slot in the title chase, they had to sur-
vive an extensive scrutinizing
process by regional and national
committees that included debate,
arguments and conference calls con-

the best record among the three
squads that tied as conference tri-

“When you analyze the results it
seems just about equal, so for me
personally, it came down to two
things,” Bailey continued.
“Plattsburgh won the head-to-head
encounter although I realize it was in
overtime, Then forme, Albany came
to Oneonta and we beat them by a
point and Plattsburgh came here the
next week and beat us hani
Meanwhile, with the dilemma
seemingly solved in favor of
Plattsburgh, and Albany in a virtual
state of limbo, there were other
feelings over the conference phone
line. By now it was about 11:30 and
the five had been talking for half an
hour, Lew Alexander of RIT, the un-
official chairman and presently
vacationing in Florida, spoke with
the others from his hotel room,
Pete Finnerty, Pace’s athletic
director and another member of the
‘erew, voiced the sectional side of the
debate, He was arguing vociferously
for Manhattanville, 17-9, Finnerty
admitted to knowing very little
‘about the upstate teams and said he
had been placed on the committee to
give it more of a balance. He said he

factor against Plattsburgh now was
their two losses to Potsdam, a team
already in the tourney.

“Beating Stony Brook in that last
game was certainly a good pitch for
Pratt,” said Hobart’s Athletic Direc-
tor William Stiles, the final member
of the group. “They also won theit
conference, they had an excellent se-
cond half of the season and so many
of their losses came out of Division
ML”

Bailey says he remembers
recommending teams for the
regional and some for a national
ranking and nothing else definitive
when the call ended shortly past
noon. There was no positive talk of
putting in a fifth possible squad and
any debate had left Plattsburgh atop
Albany anyway. At this time, the
Danes were even slipping from

each of the eight sections and their
purpose is just that; advisory. Alex

national committee and offered his
suggestion for the Eastern Regional,

guaranteed an at-large bid.

‘So when the five-member NCAA.
eastern advisory board picked up
their respective telephones to join in
on a conference call at 11:00 a.m,
Sunday morning, their major chore
was to pick a fourth team to fill the
at-large berth, Leading that list of
eligibles were Albany, Pratt,
Plattsburgh, Manhattanville, Elmira
and Staten Island,

Before anything else we wanted
to decide between Albany and
Plattsburgh,” said Daye Bailey,
Oneonta’s Athletic Director and one
of the selection committee members,
over the phone. “That evaluation
came (0 @ virtual tossup, But
historically our conference is one of
the toughest Division III leagues in
the nation and I felt we deserved two
teams in the tourney.”

The matchup was impossible to
decide, according to Bailey. Albany
finished 18-6, Plattsburgh 17-8; the
Danes lost to their lone Diy. J foe,
Colgate, and Plattsburgh beat theirs,
Vermont. Both squads went into
overtime before succumbing to

“To be perfectly frank with you I
don't know much about the basket-

Manhattan office near City Hall
“I'm an old friend of Doe Sauers but
We have to try to get more teams
from down south in the tournament;
T've already got the Manhattanville
people yelling at me down here.

Nearing 11:45, it came down to
Pratt and Plattsburgh, Despite a
lackluster 15-9 mark, Pratt had im-
pressive credentials. Six of the
losses came to Division I squads
and one to Division 1 LIU, The
leading plus for Pratt was their 95-83
win over Stony Brook Saturda
night that was fresh on everybody's
mind and also gaye them the
Knickerbocker Conference title over
Stony Brook.

During the discussion of Pratt, E,
Wayne Sunderland, Pratt’s Athletic
Director, left the conversation over

an obyious conflict of interests
Nearing 12:00, the four men still par-
ticipating brought the decision to a
vote and Pratt got the nod. A major

chairman, he put forward Albany as
‘a strong fifth by himself,

So now a conference call existed
between the cight regional chai
mans and Ralph Mesillen, the
Associate Director of Events for the
NCAA and the man directly in
charge of Division III basketball
Since Alexander is not an offi

picks first and then hung up while

the Danes’ fate was quite literally
tossed among men from ocean to
ocean.

‘According to Mesilien, Alexander
presented his four and then made a
strong pitch for Albany, while also
mentioning Plattsburgh, and ex-
pounded on the Danes’ prowess and
said he felt they deserved to be in the
tournament, Then he returned to the
sun-baked beaches of southern
Florida without knowing if his
recommendations had been ap-
proved.

“We're looking for teams that are
eligible to play and deserving to play
in the tournament,” said Mesillen
from Kansas City yesterday, “We
felt Albany State deserved to be in
the tournament, We've moved
qualified teams around before and
the SUNYAC conference has a very
good reputation because of their
past suiccess in the tournament,”

Mesillen explained that the south
is relatively weak spot for Division
111 basketball and last year (wo teams
in the regional came from out of the
area, William Penn, a midwestern
school, is playing in the western
region this weekend so the trend con=
tinuies, In some years spots in the 32-
team chase have been vacant rather
than fill them With mediocre teams

The main casualty resulting from
Albany's bid was the proposed
fourth team from the southern
region. In an eight-state area encom-
passing 23 teams, the south has the
same advisory conunittee and to
sHow the precariousness of their
decision, Transylvania St. of Ken-
tucky was felt not to be deserving of
the spot by the national committee

“I wanted the team from my
region to get in there so 1 wasn't in
favor of Albany State, you might
say," said Willie Shaw, the Athletic
Director at Lane, with a chuckle
yesterday from Tennessee. “But the
committee is essentially looking for
the best teamand my fourth spot was
ejected and after a long debate and
discussion, Albany was in.

Shaw is the southern advisory
chairman and also a member of the
national group s:1 he was involved in
the cross-continental debate that
eventually saw the Danes get a bid.
He said that aside from results, there
really is little realistic chance for him
and others to be up on a particular
region other than their own, They
took the word of Alexander that
Albany was a solid fifth in the east
and deserved a shot.

Aiexander was unavailable for

his Floridian hotel was futile, Yet,
from all apparent evidence his word
placed Albany as a strong choice
ver Plattsburgh, The national com-
mittee of course had 32 other
positions to quibble over and after
three hours, they acquiessed with
their decision.

Finnerty and Sunderland both ex-
pressed satisfaction over Albany's
delegation to Kentucky and Bailey
was surprised Plattsburgh was pass-
ed over in fayor of the Danes, Mc-
sillen said it will be interesting to see
how a New York State school fares
down south and hinted that the com~

petition may be a little lighter and

Ruffo Calls It Unconstitutional

Carter and the Peace Talks

WASHINGTON(AP) President Carter planned to plunge
directly into peace talks with Prime Minister Menachem
Begin after the Isracli leader's arrival late yesterday. The
talks, aimed at resurrecting the stalled Isrdeli-Egyptian
peace negotiations, are being held amid growing strains in
U,S.-Israell relations, Carter has expressed frustration over
the deadlock in negotiations, The Israelis are unhappy
because the United States is supporting key Egyptian de-
mands. Still, White House press secretary Jody Powell said
before Begin's arrival: "The United States is going to explore
every Iégitimate opportunity" for a settlement. Even so, the
outlook for concluding a treaty between Egypt and Isreal did

frank discussion of the issues" with Begin,

but the claims could not be verified. Japan's Kyodo news
service reported that Chinese Vice Premier Li Hsien-nien told

Li was quoted as telling the reporters. In the fighting, the
Vietnamese pushed back Chinese troops near theelty of Lang

Kyodo quoted sources in Hanoi as saying fierce fighting was
going on in the Lang area, and the Chinese were launching

China said yesterday it would withdraw from Vietnam if the
Vietnamese would leave Cambodia. But the Chinese said
they were sure the Vietnamese would not accept the chall-

Bus Drivers Demand Secunity

New York(AP) Anestimated 2,000striking bus drivers and

of them carrying American flags and chanting: “What do we
want? Job security now!" The demonstration, which was
peaceful, took placed in the 15th day of the strike that has
resulted in a drastic cut of the number of handicapped
students getting to school. officials said they drove 556 of
the handicapped pupils to school yesterday, the second day
that they have carried the same amount. Paul Trautman,
director of the program, said the city hopes to gradually
increase the number of children transported each day to 700.
Later in the day, a Court of Appeals judge was to rule on
whether the city can proceed with opening bids for school bus
contracts, Demonstrators at the City Hall protest maintained
that those new contracts could cost them their jobs and also

‘The factor that generally plays the

Atrophied Freedom

By Hubert Dickey
‘When asked what the price of freedom was,
Malcolm X replied “death”, For most, if not
for all who live today this is the most telling of
insights, seminal in its import, While national
or-cultural freedom, as causes, are usually the
recipients or the beneficiaries of human
sacrifice, precious little of the needed requisite
attention is paid the the “legitimate
aspirations for autonomy of the individual.”
In the great battle for freedom, those who
should be enjoying freedom are those least
kely to receive its bounty,

Ts not society the servant of the individuals
who comprise it? The truth of the matter is
that in spite of the lives lost and the great
amount of lip service given to personal
freedom, individuals increasingly find

themselves under the acgis of government.

Which, in turn has become the ambassador of

@ growing number of interest groups, Most

immediate of all is not so much how or why

this happens, but what course of action should
be taken, if indeed there do exist any real
plausible alternatives.

If the eriergy crisis and the effort needed to
deal with it can be seen as the “moral
hen it can be said with all
due modesty that the encroachment by
government of personal freedom is no less a
Matter of concern, If one is to be proven
worthy of freedom then freedoms call must be
heeded with all due candor, vigilance and

strength of character, We who live today, are
faced with the growing problem of seeing civil
fiberties taking a back seat to the need for

patt of totalitar
part of all the major nation states,
This crisis will not be overcome by a few
hasty andnervous attempts at suppressing this
newly a rising and troublesome problem. The
way out is to be found only through the
gradual extension and deepening of new
insights, We can never be satisfied with
narrow perspectives but must constantly seek
to become aware. The individual must stop
defying; romanticizing or idealizing freedom.
For too long the individual has failed to
take account of the new realities applying to
this situation, or worse yet has thought of
these realities in categories which were
inappropriate, Antiquated and inapplicable
norms, modes of thought, and theories can no
longer be allowed to obstruct comprehension
of aconstantly changing reality, All the talkof
freedom has blinded us tothe degree, to which
We are subject to social determinants. If we are
to be free we must confront and examine
ourselves and remove the chains from our
minds as well as our bodies. We must unmask
the unconscious situational motivations in our
thinking

It must be remembered that psychic

annihilation is more pernicious than its
counterpart physical repression, For, it is an
‘wiiempt to gain predominance, by means of
attacking the social status, the public prestige
and the self-confidence of an individual,
through the refutation of the theoretical
relivance of the opponent's arguments.

Itis always necessary for the individual to
mike his judgments froma point of view of his
own interests, This will hot occur as long as
society is stabilized on the basis of authority
and social prestige is accorded only by the
standards of the upper class. Therefore, it
must be said that the cost of freedom requires
the present societal configuration to disappear
‘and be replaced by one which lends itself to the
freedom of its members

If freedom is to occur then the mind sets of
the individuals living in society must not only
change but they, the mind sets, must also
become the property of their owners and not
of society.

Long Hard Ride

To the Ealit :

‘Asa full time student and part time worker I
1am shocked at the way the students at this
school are treated, Particularly, on those
maryels of efficiency, the SUNYA buses. Last
Tuesday morning, one of the most obnoxious
episodes in my three yeat Albany career took
place,
Twenty other commuters and I,caught the
9,05 Wellington Express from the circle to g0
downtown, We were all late by at least five
minutes already and very anxious to be
wherever, by 9:30, This of course, had no
effect on our bus driver's nutritional needs. He
casually stopped, for nearly ten minutes, to get
his coffee and bacon and egg on a roll at the
Manhattan Diner. Alright, he is entitled to
breakfast — but hang on, the best is yet to
come.

The bus then proceeded to the Draper stop
where it pulled to the curb and opened its
doors. Then as if he were at the family picnic,
the driver carefully opened his sandwich from
the wrapping paper. Sipping his coffee sinfully
slowly, he ignored the various queries of the
infused commuters as to why we were there,
's my coffee break,” he snapped, semi-
literately, “But, we're late for work,” someone
pleaded, He didn't respond.

Walking to the front of the bus, 1 asked for
the driver's name. His retort was, “Show me
ya’ .D." After complying, 1 finally got his
name, Tom Reckner. Upon arriving
downtown at 9:50, I called the motor pool to
complain. But, all they could offer me was
their kind compassion.

Besides getting this off my chest, it is my
hope that in writing to you, maybe the bus
people will start listening to student
‘complaints. The system itself is fine, probably
the best of any other school, but a reasonable
measure of concern for working students is in
order.

= Weary Traveler

How You Play
The Game
To the Editor:

It is at this time that 1 would like to
commend the Albany State Pep Band for the
fine job they do at our University sports
events, They work hard to generate a
tremendous level of enthusiasm, school spirit
and good sportsmanship, Their performances

22) at the Albany ys. Binghamton basketball
their recent addition to the half
ies included free throws (costing
$i) from half court to win $25, Their
professionality spoke for itself when one
contestant, abiding by the rules of the game,
threw the ball standing from behind the
designated line and sunk the ball, Three
officials ruled the basket good and said that
the prize should be awarded. However, the
announcer decided he was the official and
ruled the shot no good. Little did he realize
that due to the law of inertia (a body once set
in motion remains in motion) it was only
natural for the contestant to fall forward of the
line after the ball was thrown.

Good sportsmanship is realizing all factors

But, where

ell, here we go again, Last

week, if you care to remember,

we visited Albie's and The

Rat, This week we take

somewhat of a step up, and

check out two of Albany's noteworthy
delis, Platt’s Place and Joe's Caterers.

Platt’s Place is located at 44 Wolf

Road, next to the Chalet Inn, Upon first

glance it looks like a cafeteria; this isn't

too surprising, because it is a cafeteria,

There is a stack of trays, and a metal

railing to slide them along. And there is a

lady behind the counter who asks,
“Whattya want?” — just like home (here),

Chip Goldberg

didn't really know what I wanted, and
because I needed extra time to copy down
this:

“We take pride in the fact that we cook
our own turkeys and top rounds and
steam our corned beef on the premises.
We also prepare all our ice cream, soup,
salads, mayonnaise, and Russian
Dressing from scratch on the premises.”
I finally ordered from the choices on
the big board behind the counter — a
triple decker sandwich: salami, corn beef,
and pastrami, with lettuce. It comes with
Russian Dressing and tomatoes, which I
rejected, The prices are also listed on the
big board, You might like the sandwiches.
You won't like the prices. Triple decker
sandwich prices range from $2.25 for a
BLT with Russian Dressing (yucch) to
$4.95 for shrimp salad, with egg and

tomato, My triple decker came out to
$3.80,

Chip, you might ask, is $3.80 sucha big
deal for a triple decker sandwich? Wel
yes — especially when the third layer i
Comprised solely of lettuce and tomatoes,
Since 1 don't like tomatoes, the

itress/sandwich maker suggested 1
have my sandwich on only two layers, She
still charged me for three. Oh, well.

While we're talking dollars, I guess 1
should add that Platt’s charges extra for
extras. Extras in this case are: Cheese
(Swiss, Provolone, American); .35,
Tomatoes: .30, Onion: .10, Bacon; .75
(the bacon looked incredibly gross), Cole
Slaw: .20, and Eggs: .30, So, for my $3.80,
I got a sandwich consisting (on two
layers) of pastrami, corned beef, and
salami, with lettuce thrown infor texture,
Tcan't say it was a bargain,

How did it taste? Not bad, 1 guess, The
meat was of a pretty high quality, the rye
bread good, The lettuce was more brown,
however, and the mayonnaise was, well,
different than the Hellman’s I haye come
to know and love. It was home-made, as
they said, but clear and watery —not very
good. The limits of good taste prevent me
from using a really effective metaphor.
The sandwich was better than average,
but for the hey charge, that wasn't
quite enough.

Oh, yeah, one more thing: there are

(the glasses, not the nut) Woogie, and
many other inspiring shots, We sat near
the fat guy staring at us, which was about
‘as appetizing as the runny mayonnaise,
Bon appetite.

‘Our next stop was Joe's Caterers, at
851 Madison Avenue. Outside, in a
display window, there is an article about
Joe from the Albany Times Union (Joe's
has also been mentioned by the New York
Times as a place for legislators and
knowing Albanians to eat) about Joc's
life, First off, his last name is Kulik,
Second, he was born in Albany in 1907.
Third, and to me, most important, his
wife and daughters were brought up with
“dill pickles, frog's legs, and chopped liver
in their blood.” Right.

Joe's clientele is not exactly what you'd
call collegiate, Most of the business
comes from people like “Cy, Roz, Sam,
Morty,” and their friends. They like to
talk about Florida and condominiums,
their “sons the doctors,” and every other
stereotyped cliche one could think of

Upon entering, I expected to be seated
by the kitchen, 1 was. 1 was given my
menu, which is important — Joe's is a
restaurant. It is complete with waitresses,

want to tip, but that’s up to you,

mankind, then 1 wholeheartedly
recommend Joe's — live it up while you
have time, If, however, we are goingto be
around a while, don't goto Joe's until the
next time your parents come up — the
prices are unbelievably high for college
budgets, Unlike Platt’s Place, though,
worth it

‘The prices on triple deckers range from
$2.75 for a Page Hall Special (Chicken

alad, Lettuce, Mayonnaise, and

‘omato) to $5.50 for Shrimp Salad, Eggs,

Tomato, Lettuce, and Russian Dressing,
Sandwich prices span from $1.25 for
peanut butter and jelly to (get this) $10.00.
for caviar, egg, and onion, l ordered Joe's
Deli-Medley, which consisted of Spiced
Beef, Corn Beef, and Salami, with lettuce,
tomato and Russian Dressing, Again |
skipped the Russian Dressing and tomato
(I had mayonnaise). The price for this
little extravaganza was $4.15,

Boy, was it worth it, With the exception
of the watery mayo (again home-made),
this was the tastiest, largest, most filling
sandwich I have ever had in my life, It's
more than a meal — it's the master pigout
of them all, The triple decker is cut into
four sections; 1 was full after two,
However, in the truest of journalistic
integrity, I forced the other half down. 1

an average dwelling. Small living room,
several bedrooms of varying size, nice kit-

"The Honeymoon Killers,” which
Kastle wrote and directed, recounts the
criminal careers of Martha Beck and
Raymond Fernandez, the last two people
to be executed at Sing Sing. It depicts a
coarse and ugly world in which criminals
are ruthlessly amoral and their victims are
annoying and selfish — at best pitiful,
Nothing is romanticized. Crimeis not fun
or sexy, or even thrillingly awful. It is
awful — period.

A fine cast brings Kastle’s script to life.
Tony LoBianco as Ray, Shirley Stoler as
Martha, and, Janet Fay as Mary Jane
Higby, are particularly masterful.
Basically, the movie centers around the
jartha Beck character, who Kastle
described as “a lovelorn woman, feeding
herself on movie magazines, who really
wrecked her life because of her obsessive
passion.”

Kastle chose music from a Mahler
symphony to underscore Beck's “inner
torment and crazines

‘A New York Times critic who reviewed
the movie in 1970, when it first came out,
said the film “places Kastle among the
important deliberate artists of his
medium.” However, he called the Mahler
music “the only serious failure” in “The
Honeymoon Killers,” as it “oversells
every climax.” He found this odd,
considering Kastle’s musical background

Kastle, who firmly rejects this
particular criticism, is indeed more
experienced in making music than he isin
making movies. “The Honeymoon
Killers” is his first, and thus far his only
cinematic endeavor, Yet he has been
involved in music all his life, Encouraged
by “typical Jewish parents,” the kind he
says, Who Went “into fits of ecstasy when a
child played the piano,” Kastle began

‘Art On
His Own Terms

taking piano lessons as a young child.
Later, he attended the prestigious Curtis
Institute of music. There he felt culturally
isolated. He was studying amongst “the
cream of the crop, but it was sour cream.
They knew nothing but music.”

To satisfy his hunger for variety, Kastle
began supplementing his education by
attending summer sessions at Columbia
University, At Columbia, Kastle “got
heavily into politics", He became
involved with a leftist political group.
But my left wing days ended with a
ned, “when I realized that
‘acist than the right could
ever be. You have more of a chance of
saying your freedom from the
conservatives in America than you have
from the left wing in America.”

Freedom is quite important to Kastle.
And he doesn't see it anywhere today. He
speaks in terms of comparative evil. “As
bad as South Africa and Rhodesia are,”
he says, “they're not nearly as bad as East
Germany or Russia. They're not putting
people in insane asylums, injecting them
with drugs, and certifying them as legally
insane because the people are against the
regime.” He adds, “There never would
haye been a Russian Revolution if the
Czar, as bad as he was, was as bad as the
Communists. The Czar, atleast, put them
in prison and released them. That's how
Leninand Stalinand Trotsky were able to
get out and do a revolution. The
Communists don't release you. I mean,
they put you away...”

Kastle sees some hope for Americans
today in that they seem to be moving
politically towards conservatism. “I think
the example is now starting to become
yery, very clear that the really precious
thing is freedom,” he says, “It's the left
where it’s disappearing more than the
right.”

Despite this glimmer of hopefulness,
Kastle is far from optimistic about
America today. “We are living in an
absolute cultural cesspool,” he insists
“We are ruled by products.” The word
product comes up again and again in
conversation with Kastle, He feels that in
America, products have replaced art,
especially in the motion picture industry

“Today we have people in the movies
Who are — they're thugs, These people
don't want to make a product and make

“We are the Sultans of Swing,” Dire
Straits claims in the song-of the same
name, which is quickly becoming their
calling card, They'll receive no argumen-

asked if he sces any artists
moyies today, Kastle cites
cllini and Truffeau, As for
American artists, he is stumped.

“But then again, if you asked me about
American composers,” he adds wryly, 1

can't say many of them are too great
cither.” When Kastle speaks of
composers, he means composers of “real
music”, He doesn’t want to talk about

“that electronic stuff”, As far as Kastleis
concerned, rock doesn’t even resemble
music. “When rock people are referred to
tists in the newspaper, and the things
do’ are called concerts — it's
shocking. . . That junk, these songs, this
rock: what does it communicate?” Kastle
questions irrately. “Boredom, stupidity

with new cuts mixed in,

The songs were played without a lot of
stage theatrics, but with suitable en-
thusiasm, The stage versions were very
true to the recorded arrangements, with
short, tight jams usually added at the
end, The songs ‘came to life’, as one
would hope for in concert. The tight
thythm section of Pick Withers on
drums, John Illstedy on bass, and David
Knopler on guitar played simply, but
with excellent clarity. They did their job
well, and that job became more obvious
fs the set progressed: to provide an
Unobirusive backdrop for the ‘star’ of;
the band, Mark Knopler. Mark writes all
the songs the band performs, does all the
singing, and handles the lead guitar

The set climaxed with the band’s
biggest hit (unfortunately also a shor-
tened single ‘Sultans of Swing’. Ob-
viously the crowd favorite, and the
most warmly received song of the night,
“Sultans” flowed from start to finish,
The song can be interpreted as
autobiographical with lyrics that em-
phasize Dire Straits no-frills approach to
their music/ ‘They don’t give a damn
about no trumpet playing band/It ain't
What they call rock and roll,””

The band was calledd out for two en-
cores, of which “Wild West End’? was
the highlight, Also from their album, the
song is a showcase of harmony and
melody. The crowd was ready fora third
encore, but there was none.

It is likely that Dire Straits never will
be playing in a club setting again in this
area. Based on the str ‘th of their
performance Wednesday night, it's a
safe bet that they will be playing larger
halls in the near future. This is a mixed
blessing, since more people will have
the opportunity to catch their next ap-
pearance, but without the intimacy that
a small club offers

communication, Kastle feels that “The
Honeymoon Killers” “says a lot about
human condition.” He also
communicates through his musical
compositions, Presently he teaches
composition at SUNYA, This enables
him to communicate in yet another way.

Kastle speaks proudly of his students,
He hopes to develop a functioning
composition department here. Kastle
feels that SUNYA offers ideal
environment for music because it is not an
isolated environment, His students are
Surrounded by much more than just
music,

What lies in Kastle's future? On May
5th, SUNYA will witness an evening of
musical compositions by his students, a
concert which Kastle is yery excited
about. As for more personal endeayors,
there is an opera on the verge of
production, a children’s opera about tobe
written, and several other musical
projects in various stages of development,
In addition, Kastle intends to make his
second film this summer, It is something
which he wrote several years ago, It has
taken him time to find someone willing to
produce it

But if people are hesitant to put up
money for his work, Leonard Kastle
doesn'treally mind waiting. Heis creating
art in the fullest sense of the word; art

that there must be an announcement

Auerbach Says Larry Bird
Ts As Good As Bob Cousy

BOSTON (AP) —Indiana State All-
‘America Larry Bird brings back
memories to Red Auerbach, the
architect of 13 National Basketball
Association titles with the Boston
Celtics.

“He's a big Cousy,” Auerbach said
Monday, comparing the 6-foot-9
Bird with former Celtics’ great Bob
Cousy, a guard noted for his quick
hands and peripheral vision along
with his scoring.

“I never thought I'd ever compare
‘anyone with Cousy, but Larry Bird
has those great hands and great vi-
sion,” Auerbach said,

Like most national television
viewers, Auerbach, the former
Celtics’ coach now the club's presi-
dent and general manager, was
somewhat in awe watching Bird play
Sunday.

Bird, picked by Auerbach as the
Celtics’ No. 1 draft choice last June
although he was only a junior,
scored 49 points and grabbed 19
rebounds as Indiana State com-
pleted a perfect regularseason witha
109-84 victory over Wichita State,

“When he gets anywhere near the
ball, it belongs to him,” Auerbach
said, “Everyone in the country
knows he can shoot. Other things
impress me more

“He has a great concept of the
game, a great feel of what's going on
between the four lines, He's got
patience, he’s strong and he’s un-
selfish,

“I've seen him play and talked to
him just once, However, I'm going
Out to see him in the playoffs, Then,
after the season, he'll get an agent
and we'll sit down and talk

Schwartz On Sports

The NCAA

Rarely are committees praised for anything. Common arguments are that
they take too long to make decisions, and the members really don't care one
way or another anyhow, But this past week, the fate of the Albany State
basketball team was in the hands of a group of men onthe NCAA selection
committee, and their performance is worthy of acclaim,

This pat on the back is not simply because the committee picked the Danes
for the playoffs, There was no doubt that Albany deserved a bid, but tooking,
from an objective viewpoint, other schools, most noticeably Pratt, also had
strong claims for post season action, Basically, what it came down to was an
abundance of quality teams in the east, virtually assuring more than one dis-
‘gruntled school,

Actually, the eastern committee was no help to the Danes at all, After a
Tong debate, they decided on Pratt for the remaining spot to the Eastern
Regional. It was the national committee, with persuasion by unofficial
eastern chairman Lew Alexander, that found a place for Albany.

This is where the NCAA should be commended. They showed that they’
were flexible, and that they actually had the best interests of the tournament
At heart. Seeing that the east was crowded, the national committee looked’
elsewhere, and finally found a spot open in the Southern Regional in Ken-
tucky.

Where they could have went with a conservative move, instead the com-
mittee took a gamble, By placing Albany in the Southern Regional ahead of a
southern team, the NCAA must have incurred the anger of a number of
schools in the south, But the committee wanted the best teams possible, even
if jt meant sending Albany, N.Y, to Danville, Ky.

Quiet Dorm Speaks On Changes

suggestions. He met with graduate
students in Brubacher Hall Sunday
night to hear their concerns also.

Beginning the meeting with an
outline of the proposed changes,
Welty illustrated them by citing
