Five Grapplers Qualify For National Tourney
by Larry Kahn
Sometimes {t"s just too easy to
write off a struggling team,
‘The Albany State wrestling squad
floundered through a disappointing
7-13 season, and for all intents and
plirposes looked like an also ran,
But this weekend five Albany
wrestlers dramatically turned thelr
Season around, surprising
everybody by qualifying to compete
in the Division 111 National Cham-
pionships.
Andrew Seras, Spiro Theofilatos,
Bill Endres, Vic Herman and Mark
Goossens all placed in the top four

“It was a great showing," said an
obviously pleased and excited
Albany fead wrestling coach Joe
DeMeo about the Danes’ impressi
fifth place finish, “Everybody
wrestled great—they got good just
at the right time to get good,”
The big story, as it has been all
year, was Seras, Wrestling at 134
pounds, he brought home Albany's
first SUNYAC championship in
eight years and upped his overall
record to an amazing 39-5-1,

DeMeo proudly noted,
Seras pinned John Egitto of
Binghamton in the first round, and
then edged his former high school
co-captain, Tim Abigail from
Brockport, 8-6, He then went on to
the finals and outpointed
Poisdam's Mark Norris, 11-8, in
what many people felt was the most
exciting match of the tournament.
“Twas confident, but I really had
to come up with something extra at
the end,” Seras said about his
match against Norris, and added,
“4]t was extra sweet making it to the
finals, and also beating Tim,'”
Theofilatos qualified at 142
pounds, winning two out of his
three matches. In the first round he
wrestled Joe Sciarma to a 10-10 tie
in regulation and after an overtime
period they were still even, but
Theofilatos was awarded the match

Leo Cosgrove and was Jeading in
his final match, 6-3, with only 0:39
remaining when he lost on a fall
“He was wrestling just super,’
commented DeMeo,
Early in the season Endres was
ut with a knee injury, but he seems
to have recovered nicely, The 150
pounder beat the number four seed,
5.3, lost to the eventual champion,
Joe Giani, and then came up with a
clutch victory over Tim Hogan, 6:3,
for fourth place.
That took the pressure off,"
said Endres, who then defaulted the

Herman, the team captain, was
seeded first in the 177 pound class,
but had to settle for fourth after
suffering an injury in the
semifinals. He nipped Paul
Newman in the opener, 3-2, was in-
jured in the semis, but came back to
overwhelm Potsdam's Rich Schlan-
sky, 16-0.
"T wasn't wrestling that well,’"
Herman noted, “If 1 fost that
match I wouldn't go to Nationals,

Goossens, a freshman
heavyweight, wrestled brilliantly to
earn himself a spot in the Nationals,
He bested Jolin O'Sullivan in his

Brockport’s Chris Haley, 14-3, in
the second round, but pura lock on

Cesare’s Shot With :02 Left Downs Union, 66-64
Open Rough Week With
Romp Over Plattsburgh

SCHENECTADY — Ray Cesare’s short jump shot with just
iwo seconds remaining broke a 62-62 deadlock, and gave the
Albany State basketball team a 64-62 win over a late-sur;
Union College team, Monday night at Union's Memorial
House,
The Danes led by 11 points, 57-46, with 8:37 to go in the
jame, but Union went on a 13-3 tear in the next five minutes to
(lose the gap, Guard Joe Clinton's (20 points) three-point play
with 24 seconds left knotted the contest at 62, when Albany
alled time out, and set up their final play,
It was designed that Albany would wait until there were 10
onds left on the clock, and then look for either Pete Stanish,
Rob Clune, or Cesare to shoot.
“We wanted to run a stall for 10 seconds, and then establish
4 point man,’ Cesare said, ‘But it didn’t work out,””
“That person that had the ball with 10 seconds was supposed
to go down (near the basket) and cither dish off or look to
shoot,"” Stanish said,
Stanish was that person. With five ticks left on the clock, he
let go with a jumper from the corner that missed.
“| knew how much time was left, but they were playing the
other men so hard, I had no choice but to shoot it,’” the for-
Ward continued,
The rebound flew oyer the hoarding quintet of Dutchman,
and into Cesare’s hands at the foul line, The senior took a step,
and swished his shot over two outstretched defenders, clinching
the victory,
But judging by the way the first
40 minutes of this Capital District
clash went, it didn’t seem as if it
would come to a last second basket,
Albany led for the entire game
(except for a 40 second span early in
the first half) and maintained con-
trol as well as a 10 point lead
throughout most of the contest,
playing ‘tas well as we've played all
year," according to Albany head
basketball coach Dick Sauers.
Union showed why they had won

It was a great comeback they

THE BUDGET
For fiscal 198), already nearly five

in cuts in federally subsidized loan,
programs that are not listed in the
budget and a $2 billion increase in,

waterways and airways.
Reagan's 1982 budget calls for
$695.5 billion in spending and.
$650.5 billion in revenues, for a
deficit of $45 billion, The bu
would not be balanced until 1984 at
the earliest. Former President Jim:

for $739.2 billion in spending and:

Teens are the Loneliest
(CPS) Eighteen-to-twenty year-olds probably the
lonelicst people in America, al least according to studies
done by Dr, Robert Weiss of the University of
lassachusetts-Boston, along with Dr, Richard Maiscl,
"We surveyed all different age arouns, from 18 on up,
{and our results suggested that there was more foneliness
‘among the youngest people,'’ Weiss says, He explains
that older teens begin to feel very much alone when they
cannot find jibstitutes for the emotional: security
previously offered by home and family. Weiss says the
loneliness is compounded by the fear that “I'm the only
one who feels this way," An incoming student will look
around and see others happy and surrounded by friends,
and will feel like a failure in comparison, Weiss told
Seventeen magazine that young people idealistically ex-
pect to have many deep, lasting relationships, Failure to
realize these hopes can lead to depression—another part
of loneliness, Older people, with a lifetime of ex-
perience, tend to be more realistic, however, and are not
affected as deeply as teen-agers,

Leftists Accuse U.S.
SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador (AP) Leftist leaders
charged Thursday that 100 U.S, military advisors are
masterminding a counter-insurgency plan to ‘‘cut off

The left said that a small school 20 miles northwest of

At the 40 workshops available at the
Conference, people from across the state
will have the opportunity to share their ex

Many workshops will be devoted to issues
including toxic chemicals, truth-in-testing,
lie er
the bottle bill, student voting rights, and
property tax reform
People from outside of NYPIRG will

ASPECTS
Cs ee of the common historical and cultural
experience of the Black man. African rhythmic modes
meshed with the oppressive social conditions produce :
the reggae beat in the hearts and minds of its im- =
poverished patrons. This is music from the other side of
the tracks. Anger, frustration, rage, and the imminent
threat of violence are just as prominent in the music as
in the society of the people who listen to it.
The music appeals to the passions of an exploited and
abused people. It's more than music to get high to; this
is music to inspire and incite. The quality that enables
this music to motivate is its inherent emotional impact.

to blame the death of our friend the

By now you are guessing that this movie Is
alot like Capricorn One. Sure, a felled space
mission, a bad cover-up, mysterious deaths,
and a survivor who in the end reveals the
truth to a shocked public, Clearly this plot
had possibilities, 'm not saying it could have
been an Academy Award winner, but it
could have provided some entertainment
following this formula, Another possibility
would have been to have the NASA scien-
tists working on the UFO discover an alien
plot to take over the world, Hangar-18
begins fo do both of these, and in the end
does neither, One of this movie's most
serious flaws is that It never finishes anything
It begins. This is partially a symptom of poor
editing, which Is also in evidence when

The cinematography was fair, nothing
special. The special effects must have been
done by an 8th grade camera class (there
‘were three fires and a decapitation), and the
stunts were few and far between. Nothing in
any of this to make the movie special in any
way, Even the two obligatory car chases
were mundane. There are two things { have
always wondered about car chases, First
when a ear is being chased and bumped
toward the edge of a cliff, why doesn’t the
target car Jam on lis brakes?, and second,
when brakes fail In a car chase, why doesn't
the driver shift his moving vehicle into park

engine? Clearly, Hangar-18 sheds no light
on these mysterles either
So what have we got? We've got a movie

people away from the theatre than anything
anyone could ever write about, We have
mundane special effects et al, We have
uninspired acting. We have insipid direction
We have an unscript. What we have Is a

Are The Good Films Gone With The Wind?
ritles and audiences have decried
the medioerity rampant in feature
films lately, Certainly it's no secret
to moviegoers that the films they've shelled
ul three fifty and four bucks for have been
disappointments. What few people _have

My immediate reaction as a writer Is that
still aren't taken that seriously in Hollywood,
and yet some of the brightest and most
powerful directors in the city started out as
writers and still say that the best way to make
it in the business is ( keep writing scripts
There's another problem though, and a
more serious one. What is more apt io hurt
the Industry in the long run js the very way
the business js starting to be run.
There was a time when movie studios
‘Were Just that, and they were run like fa
tories, Universal, M-G-M, Warner Brothers,
ly well-written film in 1980 {s hard, Finding
two Is nearly Impossible, There are enor
mously talented actors and actres
available — the bigaest movie stars todayare
better actors than their counterparts of the
thirties and forties, almost without exception.
Many Hollywood directors are-at worst ex:
ellent, professional craftsmen, and imeny
are talented artists. The technology available
Jn terms of cinematography and special ef-
fects |s staggering, And this Is all being
thrown down the tollet on scripts that aren't
worth a tenth of thelr budgets, :
It's an interesting phenomenon that writers
hhad people under exclusive contracts — ac
tors, directors, writers, technicians,
everyone. It meant that the studio working
‘as an ensemble, a repertory company of
sorts, individuals were secondary to the final
product, the film, Eventually, big starr
became free agents and they had to be
negotiated for, one picture at a time. The
star becamo a product in his/her own tight.
I's come to a head now, and there are a
surprising number of people who can get a
million dollars a film, and some who get
more than a million dollars a film.
And the studios don't really make too
i
backing for films on their own, and the
studios simply undertake the distribution of a
film. The studios are owned by large cor-
porations, and all of a sudden alot of people
are involved who don't know a thing about
making movies. Too many movies are made
simply as a matter of packaging and produc
tion.
It shows offen enough, believe me it does.
Third problem: Movies are not always made
simply to make money at the box office. On
the surface, that may not seem to be such a
bad thing. but actually there's a lot to be said
for making movies 1o be profitable only at the
box office. If a movie Is designed to make
Honey at the box office. it has to be made to
make as many people as possible want to go
out end pay money to see it, But there are
other ways to make a movie pay for itself
now. TV sales are one way. Some movies
are actually financed through TV sales in ad-
vance of production. In other words, a pro:
ducer sells the TV rights to a picture before
he makes it, uses that money as capital to
finance the production, and the movie will
be shown on network TV sooner than would
be usual, (Sunburn, which starred Farrah
Fawcett, was done this way, It bombed al the
box office and got lousy ratings.)
Another out Is cable TV. Outfits like HBO
need a certain amount of programming, and
will buy any reasonably major film that's
available. In some cases, HBO has shown
movies that received little af no distribution
as a feature film,
And there are foreign sales. All you have

markets. Despite thefact that what we see in
America of Europea films are those of
Bergman, Fellini, Truffaut, and Herzog

This sort of marketing is undercutting
American film production. Why make a

To Become Georgia AD
ATHENS, Ga. (AP) Georgia
Coach Vince Dooley, who directed:
his football team to the national
schampionship last season, now Is In
charge of the university's entire
athletic program.
Dooley had shared the position
of ‘athletic director with Reid
Parker since July 1979, when Joel
E tired, Dooley said he has
‘asked Parker to remain at Georgia
for another year as a consultant.
In announcing the changes
Wednesday, Dooley also named his
former Auburn teammate, Lee
Hayley, as an associate athletic
director at Georgia, Hayley resign-
ed earlier Wednesday as athletic
director at Auburn,
Hayley's availability was the
main reason the change was made
now, Dooley said, because the com:
plex. world of college athletics
makes it impopssible for one person:
to handle both the athletic director
and head football coach jobs.
‘VAs tong as I'm totally involved
in coaching, there is no way 1 can
give all my attention to the position
of athletic director,"” Dooley said,
Hayley will assume his new duties
July 1, but will begin working on a
iimited basis here within the next
few weeks. He will take over many
of the responsibil
ing handled by Dooley and Parker.
Parker said the changes at
Georgia are ‘in keeping with the
agreement made almost wo years
‘ago when the present administrative
organization was developed. The
plans were for me to fill the role of

five starters getting inside hoops,

their Division 11 opponents for the
first nine minutes. But the Warriors

the game, and forced Albany to

The resolution states that the
