Night taken back at rally
March responds to problem of sexual assault
By Hers TERNS

Sexual violence awareness
Thursday night surrounded the
streets of Albany as a band of
about 400 marched and rallied
for the annual “Take Back the
Night” in Washington Park.
The pre-march rally, held at
the Washington Park Lakehouse,
included several speakers, musi-
cal performers, and a display of
shirts honoring women who
have been victims of violence
entitled The Clothesline Project.
Take Back the Night began as
marches in the early seventies,
and were organized by women
in response to sexual violence.
Mia Morosoff, co-coordinator
for Take Back the Night, said
because of the marches the
“silence has been broken about
abuse of women.” She also said
she was disappointed that rallies
like Take Back the Night were
still needed.
A woman known only as
Debra, told the crowd that she
had never participated in Take
Back the Night until she was

attacked in her apartment last
year. She said she was raped and
sodomized, then beaten and had
her valuables stolen.
Debra said that at the time of
the rape she was a student at
SUNYA. When she asked her
landlord to increase security in
her apartment, her landlord said
it wasn't a security problem, but
rather that it was her fault. “You
don’t know what kind of people
she hangs out with,” her landlord
reportedly told another tenant in
reference to Debra’s attack.
Debra said a friend told her
“just think of it as a bad f...k.”
Debra said she had done none
of the things to put herself at risk
to be raped and because of it,
“my view of the world has
changed, it is not a safe place.”
Catherine Harkess, another of
the four rape survivors who
spoke at the rally, said she was
raped by an acquaintance at age
13. She said for years after the
attack she thought it may have
been her fault, but counseling at
a local rape crisis center helped
her shed her self-blame and real-
ized, “his was never my fault.”
Harkess said, “We cannot
depend on the system to protect
us.” She used the William
Kennedy Smith trial and the

Did Koresh and follow-

Waco, Texas
(AP) Doomsday cult leader
David Koresh’s apocalyptic pre-
diction for his followers came
true Monday when a raging fire
destroyed the compound where
he had held federal agents at bay
for 51 days.
As many as 87 members of the
Branch Davidian religious sect,
including Koresh and 25 chil-
dren, are believed to have died
in the flames which raced

agents began using armored
vehicles to pound holes in the
complex of buildings and spray
then with tear gas in a bid to
force an end to the standoff.
Eight cult members who
escaped the flame are believed
by federal officials to be the only
survivors, but authorities said
they would not know the precise
death toll until they could search
an underground maze of pas-
sageways.

SUNYA bus driver victim of angry students
Student misconduct on late night buses has administration concerned
By Patrick CULLEN
Managing Editor
First in a series
A recent incident in which a SUNYA
bus driver was injured by a number of
students has brought to light growing
problems on late-night weekend bus runs
and left members of SUNYA administra-
tion to question the usefulness of these
late-night runs.
On Saturday March 27, SUNYA bus
driver Bill Myers, of Saratoga Springs,
suffered a torn pectoral muscle and was
struck numerous times when a crowd of
over 100 [the majority of them intoxicat-
ed] people, rushed his bus at the intersec-
tion of Quail Street and Western Avenue,
Myers said.
“We're at a point where there is too
much abuse,” SUNYA Vice President of
Students Affairs, Mitchell Livingston
said.
“On the one hand, we have issues of
wanting people to get back to their rooms
safely... [on the other hand] people are out
of control as far as their use of alcohol...
they need to think clearly about their situ-
ation,” Livingston said.
“We [the University] have to ask our-
selves ‘Are we really helping students or
are we making them more vulnerable?,”
Livingston said. “The bottom line is we
have to help students be responsible for
their own conducts.”
At 1:30 a.m., Myers left State and
Eagle Streets in downtown Albany for the
last bus run to campus that night, Myers
said,
The bus left State and Eagle with 30 to
35 passengers aboard, which was about
25 to 30 more than usual, Myers said,
adding the Grateful Dead was in town
that weekend. By the time he was coming

up on Quail and Western, Myers said he
had “half a load.’”
“T approached Quail and Western and
there was a mob,” Myers said. “Some
were out in the street... I opened the door
and they charged.”
The load came up to the white line and
there were about 100 people in the bus,”
Myers said. “I sad ‘the bus is full’ and
told them to clear the stairs... 50 or 60
people were waiting to get onto the bus.”
The crowd began to push, Myers said,
and one “very intoxicated” male fell atop
the steering wheel and got caught on the
gearshift. When Myers tried to push the
person off the controls, the individual
elbowed Myers twice, once in the jaw and
once on the side of the head, he said.
Myers said another male struck him on
the forehead in an effort to get on the bus.
A third male repeatedly struck Myers
on the arm and shoulder in order to get
past Myers’ arm, which was blocking the
aisle, and this caused his torn pectoral
muscle, Myers said.
“I managed to get on the CB, called
Public Safety, and told them “T haye a full

Nuns are beatified
Vatican City
(AP) With Polish President Lech Walesa
as a special guest, Pope John Paul IL
Sunday beatified two Polish nuns as well
as a Spanish one who established the first
schools for girls in Spain and an Italian
friar who helped African immigrants.
About 40,000 pilgrims, many of them
from Spain and Poland, packed St. Peter’s
Square for the outdoor ceremony.
Beatification is the final step before
possible sainthood.
The pope beatified Maria Angela
Truszkowska, born in Poland in 1825, and
founder of the Felician community of
nuns in 1855. She promoted non-
traditional leadership roles for women in
Poland, such as directing rural social
centers. A group of about 300 Felician
nuns came from the United States to
attend the beatification ceremony.
For beatification, Vatican authorities
must certify that at least one miracle is
attributed to that person.
In Mother Truszkowska’s case, an
American woman whom the Vatican
declared miraculously cured by the nun’s
intercession came from Dunkirk, N.Y., to
attend the ceremony. Lillian Halasinski
said she was cured of a form of diabetes
diagnosed as incurable.
John Paul also declared blessed
Faustyna Kowalska, whose tomb has long
been the goal of Polish pilgrims. The
pope, as bishop of Krakow, had begun the
nun’s process toward sainthood in 1965.
Cease fire signed
Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina
(AP) Bosnian Serbs and Muslims signed a
cease-fire for the embattled eastern town
of Srebrenica early Sunday and
guaranteed safe evacuation of civilians.
The accord was reached under threat of
total Serb invasion and effectively
amounts to the surrender of Srebrenica,
one of the last Muslim strongholds in
eastern Bosnia.
According to a document obtained
Saturday night at the United Nations, the
truce calls for deploying U.N. protection
forces to the town Sunday morning and
demilitarizing it within 72 hours of their
arrival.
According to the agreement, the truce
went into effect at 1:59 a.m. Sunday (7:59
p.m. Saturday EDT).
On Saturday, Bosnian Serb forces had
launched a fierce attack on Srebrenica,
killing or wounding dozens of people.
Serbs are driving for control of eastern
Bosnia to hook up with adjacent Serbia
and other Serb-held areas of Bosnia and

Carter begins plans
Atlanta, Georgia
(AP) Former President Carter was greeted
with smiles and handshakes as he kicked
off his immunizations campaign for
children Saturday.
Nearly 10,000 volunteers turned out to
help Carter urge residents to take
advantage of free vaccinations for
youngsters under six, he said.
Several police cruisers showed up to
accompany Carter after a mixed verdict
was announced in the Rodney King
beating case in Los Angeles. Just before,
Carter and volunteers had descended on
the city’s poor, predominantly black
neighborhoods.
The children who participate in the
campaign get passes to see Michael
Jackson at a concert the Atlanta Project is”
holding May 5.
The shots will be available April 24
through May | throughout the Atlanta
area at county health departments and
temporary clinics such as churches.
The goal: to immunize 54,000 children
by May 1. The vaccination drive is the
most visible undertaking yet by the
Atlanta Project, an organization that
Carter started in October 1991 to help
poor neighborhoods.
Prisoners finally fed
Lucasville, Ohio
(AP) Rebellious inmates and their
hostages at a maximum-security prison
got food, water and medication Saturday
for the second time since they barricaded
themselves inside a cellblock nearly a
week ago.
The delivery was part of negotiations
aimed at ending the standoff at the
Southern Ohio Correctional Facility.
Prison spokesman Ron Nelson called
the delivery a “humanitarian gesture.” He
said negotiators believed that the five
remaining prison guards held as hostages
were “alive and well.”
A truck pulled around the back of a
cellblock adjacent to cellblock L, where
about 450 inmates were barricaded.
About 20 armed guards escorted the
shipment. Workers took the food out of
the truck and left it outside. Prisoners
then carried it inside.
It was the first time since Wednesday

that the prisoners received food from the
outside. Prison officials also called the
first shipment a humanitarian gesture, but
in exchange for delivering prescription
medicine to two hostages.
Prison officials had shut off electricity
and water service to the cellblock shortly
after the uprising began.

Eight boys charged

Grand Island
(AP) Eight boys were charged with
stealing $20,000 worth of merchandise
from a suburban Buffalo house and more
than 40 unlocked cars, police said Sunday.
The boys allegedly hit some of the cars
more than once during the robbery spree,
while they were on Eastern vacation from
school, police said. One of the boys is 11
years old, and the other seven are 13 years
old.
The loot included car phones, jewelry,
wallets, credit cards, stereo equipment and
a $2,000 baseball card collection A
television set and a video cassette recorder
were taken from the home of one of the
boys while his family was on vacation,
police said,
The boys were turned over to Family
Court in Grand Island, 15 miles north of
Buffalo.

Former hostage wed
New York
(AP) Former Lebanon hostage Terry
Anderson and Madeleine Bassil were
married Sunday in an emotion—charged
ceremony attended by a small gathering of
family members and friends.
The bride wept briefly as she prepared
to speak the vows, and many of the guests
also were teary-eyed as the couple
exchanged rings, but they cheered and
clapped as the Rey. Donald Shriver
pronounced Anderson and Ms. Bassil
husband and wife.
“Through great adversity we come to
this moment, and you alone know what
endurance of suffering has preceded and
sealed this covenant of marriage,” Shriver
said in a prayer written for the occasion.
The spring morning at Anderson’s
hilltop in’Yonkers, just north of New
York, was far from the slums of Lebanon
where he endured nearly seven years as
the captive of pro—Iran Islamic extremists.
Anderson was chief Middle East
correspondent for The Associated Press
when captured in Beirut on March 16,
1985. He was the last, and longest-held,
of more than a dozen Western hostages
when he was freed in December 1991.
During Anderson’s captivity, his fiancee
lived in Cyprus and was able to get
occasional messages to him, including the
news of their daughter’s birth, three
months after he was abducted.

Survivor talks about concentration camps
Holocaust Remembrance Day brings Nazi horror to campus
By JENA GIURICEO
A lecture by a survivor of the holocaust
was given Thursday as part of Holocaust
Remembrance Day.
After her experience in Auschwitz,
Lily Klein said it was hard to reconstruct
her life. Her and her sister were reunited
with their father, and returned home.
“Home was there-everything was intact,
but my mother wasn’t or my brother.”
“My little brother’s seat at the table
was empty,” she said.
There was a sadness, life was never the
same, she said. Many of Klein’s relatives
and friends were also victims of the
Nazis.
Klein said for 10 years she could not
talk about her experiences. “The feelings
were there and so was the sorrow.”
Now, Klein speaks to young people
about the holocaust. “When I saw in the
newspaper the holocaust never existed I
knew I had to go talk to students.”
“I am glad you're listening because
you're the future,” Klein said, addressing
the student audience.
Klein told the audience it is important
to fight discrimination and prejudice.
“All people are equal and we have to
fight for equality.”
Despite her struggles Klein said she is
very happy, but said she cannot forget her
past, the memory is part of her.
“But I have no hate, hate is such a
small word.”
Klein also spoke about her experiences
asa 10 year old in Germany. She said she
arrived home from boarding school for a
week and was told ‘children you cannot
take a lot with you.’ She was then taken
to Auschwitz.
Klein said, “In Auschwitz, we didn’t
accept reality, we hoped.”
Her older sister survived with her in
Auschwitz, she said, but her mother and
eight year old brother were killed there.
Since she was so young Klein said it
was hard for her to comprehend the situa-
tion she was in.
“I knew from my mother people were
either good or bad.” Klein would tell her

A collection of panelists consisting of
many campus groups met for a discus-
sion Saturday as part of the Asian Pan
American Conference on bridging th
gap between ethnic and lifestyle grouy
Prof, Colia Clark spoke about the vel
dict of the Rodney King trial. “Justice is
still in question,” she said. E
The first panelist was a representative
from NWROC who said process of
change should be do: i
sister that they were going to be free, but
her sister would remark that she was too
young to understand what was going on,
Klein said.
Everyday she saw the cruelty, the suf-
fering, the smell, and horror, in addition
to the humiliation and the beatings as
well as the horrendous
medical experiments, she
said, adding from her
block, she could constantly
see and hear girls going
crazy and screaming.
To this day, she said she
cannot bear “anyone
standing behind me or
screaming because I can’t
shake it.”
When it was time for her
and her sister to be lead
into the crematorium it
broke, she said.
She and her sister were
going to be sent to the cre-
matorium a second time
but it broke again, she
said.
After this she was sent
along with the others to
work in an underground
factory near Berlin. All
day and night they were
forced to work producing
parts for German missiles
in harsh conditions.
Klein said one visit by
Goering and Goebbels
sticks out in her mind.
“They told us if you think
that you are going to be
free by Americans you're
wrong-you’ll never see
freedom,”she said. But the
factory was in fact
destroyed by American
bombing. “They couldn’t
take us anywhere because
of the bombing, we were
in a camp with no food or
water,” she said.
Klein said she remem-
bers the moment they saw

poems, diary entries, and other thoughts about the Holocaust
while holding a lit candle.

Cuomo says “No Smoking”
Governor wants to protect kids
By PaM RESNICK
News Editor
Gov. Cuomo last week proposed legis-
Jation to protect New Yorkers, children in
particular, from the lethal power of sec-
ond hand cigarette smoke.
The Gov’s bill proposes to ban
smoking in schools and on school
grounds. It would also prohibit
smoking in other childcare institu-
tions and all restaurants that don’t
sell liquor. .
“Smoking accounts for 18% of
all deaths in New York State,
claiming the lives of about 33,000
New Yorkers each year,” Cuomo
said.
Cuomo said banning smoking in
those chosen area will, in the long
run, reduce healthcare costs in the
future.
The federal Environmental
Protection Agency recently sec-
ond-hand smoke as a class A carcinogen,
causing more that 3,000 lung cancer
deaths each year.
New York State Health Commissioner
Dr. Mark Chassin, “To say that half a
room is no-smoking, while smokers may
puff away at will just a table away is like
saying you’re going to chlorinate only
half the swimming pool.”

Group supports the Gov’s proposal say-
ing, “The public’s exposure to deadly sec-

selling individual cigarettes.
Cuomo said, “The sales of loose, indi-
vidual cigarettes or other tobacco prod-
ucts that have been removed
from their packaging eliminates
the health warnings required by
law, depriving them of informa-
tion regarding the dangers of
tobacco use, as well as making
cigarettes more affordable for
children.”
NYPIRG is working with
other health organizations such
as the American Cancer Society,
the American Lung Association,
the American Heart Association,
the League of Women Voters and
the New York States PTAs to
ensure passage of this legislation.
“Existing law restricting smok-
ing in puble places and in the
workplace must be strengthened
to protect the health of all members of the
public,” Cuomo said.

Asian Conference addresses current issues
Students and faculty participate
in innovative programming
By GLENN TEICHMAN
Associate Managing Editor
Identity, Empowerment, and Solidarity
were the major issues surrounding the first
annual Asian/Pacific-American Student
Conference (A.P.A.C.) this past weekend.
The conference’s events included several
documentaries, speeches, workshops,
social mixers, and a plenary session.
The conference’s goals were to increase
awareness and form coalitions. “Only
when we make a commitment to struggle
for all people can we really be citizens of
the global century,” said Dr. Sucheta
Mazumdar, Assistant Professor of History
and Associate Director of Institute for
Research on Women at SUNY.
“As a smaller voice on a multicultural
campus, our goal is to strengthen our
identity and network among ourselves, as
well as students on other SUNY campuses
and at colleges and universities through-
out the Northeast,” Carol Cheng, a confer-
ence organizer said. She said the Asian
American student population at the
University is 854 out of 17,00 students.
Mazumdar said in her keynote speech,
“We have to build solidarity, build coali-
tions.” She said Asian/Pacific Americans
must be able to rethink and reclaim the
links to their homeland and culture.
Mazumdar also said the inequalities
faced by Asian/Pacific Americans have to
be addressed, “We helped build the United
States. We have had to struggle.”
During the plenary session, speakers
discussed issues such as the inequality in
the workforce faced by Asian/Pacific
Americans. Chair of the Asian and Pacific

Pei Wang said, “there are mixed and
inconsistent images” of Asian people that
lead to discrimination. In one view, we are
seen as a model minority, but there is also
a glass ceiling that prevents Asians from
rising too high in the workplace said Pei
Wang.
Pei Wang said the audience should
“participate in the community. You are the
future of Asian Americans.”
Other speakers at the plenary session
included President of the Student
Association of the State University of
New York (SASU) Glenn Magpantay who
discussed “taking stands, raising issues,
and getting involved“; Mi Ok Bruining
who talked about the issues of intercoun-
try adoption; and Assistant to the
Governor Connie Chin who discussed the
identity crisis Asian/Pacific Americans
face.
Various seminars were held throughout
Saturday focusing on issues including
Anti-Asian Violence, stereotypes of
Asian-American women, and interracial
relationships.
In one seminar, Dr. Mazumdar dis-
cussed how Hollywood portrays Asians as
exotic/erotic creatures. Times Union
reporter Winnie Yu said Asian women are
stereotyped as docile women who will
make “great little wives.” She also said
education is needed to eliminate these
stereotypes.
The conference also included a dance
party. Korean Night was held in conjunc-
tion with the conference.

President of the Native American

rent policy in Quebec to use the land of
the Inuit people for hydroelectric plants.
He compared the situation to U.S. policy
in the 1800s to redistribute the native
population. Islas urged attendees and pan-

and Japanese governments: the two
largest lobbyists of hydroelectric power.
The discussion ended with suggestions
for continuing the process of bridging

articles, you should go beyond the mere
reading of the text and try to look at those
relationships around you that are most
intimate, most creative, most productive,
and see if what is mentioned here stands
the test of real life. For most of you it
will. With such concrete observation you
can more fully affirm these respective
qualities, deepen your experience of them
with your friends, and expand their appli-
Serer is
Middle cation with others.
A positive way to be
Earth
present to others is by
encouraging concreteness of
Roots _ expression. How often we
hear that someone is having “‘a bad day,”
or “things aren’t going right,” or “I’m
down/up.” So many self-perceptions seem
to be facile black or white or all or noth-
ing descriptions. Maybe the pace of life
does not allow greater depth; perhaps
technology colors our views of ourselves.
In any case, a richer texture and complex-
ity is missed by acceptance of the usual
quick response we give to the common
“Hi, how are you?” Our “bad day” may
mean we're experiencing anger, frustra-
tion, confusion, anxiety, apathy, weak-
ness, rejection, pessimism, fear, disgust,
bitterness, betrayal, and so forth. How
you help your friends get in touch with
specific feelings may be most helpful as
they try to find a specific solution to their
problems. You do not have to act like
you’re interrogating a crime suspect. Ask
for clarification or explanation when you
don’t understand what is being said.
Don’t nod acceptance of a vague generali-
ty.
Another quality is that of self-disclo-
sure. You appreciate hearing others’ ‘real
life experience of problems similar to
yours. You look for some form of identifi-
cation with others. Without developing a
listing of your own “tale of woe.” If it
relates to your friend’s needs, it is appro-
priate to mention some of your experience
in a given problem area. While the idea of
“you think you’ve got problems, let me
tell you mine” may be out of place, per-
haps, it is helpful to offer: “I had a similar
experience” or “I had similar feelings
about X.” This type of disclosure could
help to establish a common ground for the
relationship.
Carkhuff also proposes that confronta-
tion is a necessary concern. Helping
someone sometimes means holding up a
mirror to their behavior and allowing
them to see the discrepancies. It may
mean allowing them to notice when their
actions don’t fit their words, goals or val-
ues. We all need friends who help get us
back on track and still accept us as imper-
fect; but we need friends who aren’t
afraid to let us know when we are not fol-
lowing our best goals. Most of us find this
aspect of helping very difficult because
we equate confronting with rejecting or
fighting. This need not be the only inter-
pretation. Confrontation can be placing
out observation of another’s behavior up
for discussion. “I don’t understand what
you did,” “can you clarify for me why
you said X, but did Y?” If you are trying
to understand your friends’ behavior or
help them see what you see then con-
frontation can come out as benevolence
rather than as an attack.
Finally, there is the immediacy of the
relationship. This means you are sensi-
tive to what goes beyond what is being
said — the metacommunications.
Perhaps, how two friends really feel about
each other gets in the way of what is
being said. Being honest enough to dis-
cuss how the relationship helps or hinders
what is being talked about can add to the
success of the interchange by removing
subtle blocks to progress.
The purpose of the third article has
been to stimulate you to reflect on ways to
improve your responses to others, and to
help you be more deeply present to those
around you. For additional information,

EDITORIAL
GETTING ALONG
This week the world watched as an
important decision was made in a Los
Angeles Courthouse, a few days later a
decision that could be just as important was
made in Waco, Texas.
The second Rodney King verdict still
leaves many questions for America. The
acquittal of two police officers and
conviction of two others have been praised
and condemned by many. Luckily, Los
Angeles has been spared the trauma it
suffered after the last trial and, more
importantly, no blood was shed.
The story will continue to be told in books
and television docudramas; moreover,
constitutional experts will debate whether the
second trial constituted double jeopardy.
Perhaps one or both of the convictees will
attempt some sort of an appeal.
Another event that could still ignite
tensions is the trial of Reginald Dennys.
When this case comes to the jury in mid-
summer, hopefully justice will be served and
cooler heads will continue to prevail.
Tragically, though, the question of a verdict
has been on people’s minds and little has
been said about the uncleared wreckage from
last year’s riots. This could be because the
sensationalism of more violence overrides
our curiosity about the aftermath of
destruction.
In Waco, a similar decision was apparently
made as David Koresh watched tanks smash
the walls of his fortress with the ease of an
elephant against an ant.
Fearing that his “rule” was soon to end,
Koresh acted rashly and found the coward’s
way out. Lighting a fire to the walls of his
compound; the easy decision was made by
both a fanatic and his followers, it seems.
Strangely enough, the people of Los
Angeles and Daivd Koresh were in similar
situations this weekend.
Both were in a tense atmosphere, and felt
threatened by a form of intolerence. Clearly
Koresh was mentally ill (or a very good
actor), and with the history of violence and
mob mentality Los Angeles was in the same
situation.
Koresh reacted to the situation in the worse
possible way, taking the life of 87, when he
should have brought his case to the United
States legal system (perhaps he knew his case
was as thin as his credibility).
The people of L.A. reacted in a far different
way. Tempered by experience, the residents
of the “City of Angels’ behaved like angels;
neither those who supported the decision or
those who condemned it reacted with the
mindless violence of last year.
The actions in Los Angeles can be a lesson
to us all.
Here in Albany, even at the SUNYA
campus, there are moments of intolerence
and prejudice. This, along with the feeling of
being threatened, grows geometrically, and
on instinct violence, intolerence and savagery
could seem to be perfectly adequate
solutions.
We should all strive.to remember they
aren't.

History Does Repeat Itself
47 years. Not even half a century has passed, making it
difficult to consider the grim events that transpired then as
history. But 47 years encompasses our collective memory
since the end of World War II, since the last Jew was cast
into history’s gas chamber.
In the grand scheme of time, where 47 years is a mere
drop in the bucket, modern Germany and her citizens are
neglecting a significant part of their past with dire
implications for the future. Since the unification
commenced with the toppling of the infamous Berlin
Wall, the world has witnessed a resurgence of Nazism in
Steven Gad & Alex Twersky
its familiar birthplace.
To understand the reasons for the rebirth of this vicious
ideology one must first understand the course of German
history after the Second World War. Once the fighting
ceased and a peace treaty was declared, Germany spent
little time dwelling on the shameful history of atrocities in
its past. Quite the contrary, the Germans forged ahead
with an ambitious drive toward rebuilding their nation and
focusing on the promise of the future. Today, their visions
are vindicated by Germany’s economic superpower status.
In their quest to achieve regional economic superiority
(ironically, a failed partial objective of Germany’s military
agenda in WWII) the Germans have gone far to distance
themselves from the legacy that the somber mention of
the Holocaust inspires. The people of Germany, especially
the nation’s youth, have not been thoroughly instructed in
the abominations created at the hands of the Nazis and
inflicted on a world of victims. Nor has the complicity of
millions of German citizens and the sympathetic
populations of German — ruled territories been amply
discussed.
How were these vital items allowed to slip off the
remedial agenda? What happened to the moral lesson that
the Holocaust was supposed to teach Germany and the
world? The trail of answers begins with the intended
punishment of Nazi war crimes. After the war, a tribunal
was convened at Nuremberg to bring the perpetrators of
Nazi terror to justice. While a slew of key planners were
tried and convicted, thousands more who fervently
supported Hitler and carried out his policies mercifully
slipped through the cracks of the system. Many of them
went on to resume their lives and continue to live under
‘aliases in havens around the world.
The grasp of justice had escaped these ill — redeemed
Nazi collaborators and replaced them in society. They
became eager to forget about their spotted past and bless
the gift of freedom they had been granted. This, in turn,
bred an attitude of remorselessness and arrogance. The
Nazis of yesterday, having eluded their rightful
condemnation, became the schoolteachers of today and
indoctrinated the youth of Germany with feelings of
extreme pride and honor for the new German republic.
The nationalism thought buried in the ashes of war
actually burns strong in the hearts of the younger
generation, instilled in them by their unrepentant elders
and fueled by the myriad movements of rightist
opposition (popularly called neo-nazism) growing around
the country, especially in the impoverished former East
Germany. In view of this shift in thinking, would anyone
who reads the paper be surprised at seeing news of neo-
nazi demonstrations that smear Jewish cemeteries with
swastikas, desecrate Holocaust memorials, and proclaim
racist credos? Would you be shocked to learn that in
recent CNN poll of 3000 Germans, 28% of the
respondents blamed the Jews for their fate in the
Holocaust? Other polls have revealed similar incidence of
entrenched anti — semitism.
We are surrounded by mounting piles of evidence that
the winds of hate still blow in Germany. Recently, a
celebration was planned to commemorate the ingenuity
and engineering of the V missile, which, coincidentally,
was produced at the expense of thousands of Jewish
workers, young and old, forced into labor during the war
to build it. The suppression of memory has spilled over
into the realm of pop culture as well. Several years ago,
the German motion picture industry refused to submit
“The Nasty Girl” for Academy Award consideration. This
film, which many hailed as brilliant, concerned a young
woman’s gradual discovery of her hometown’s complicity
with the Nazis during the war, and the town’s current
resistance, often violent, to dredging up the past. This film
injury was compounded further when the same German
film commission refused to sponsor “Europa, Europa,” an
equally controversial film about the Holocaust, as its 1990
entrant for the Best Foreign Film Oscar.
Who should be held responsible for this slight to
cinematic artistry? When one considers that the same
bureaucrats who tried to undermine these gripping films
also extol Leni Riefenstahl, one of Hitler’s chief
propagandists, as an honored member of the German
cinematographic profession, one realizes how it feels to
be at once indifferent and enslaved by your past.
An object lesson may be derived from the German
government's tempered response to the recent attacks on
refugees and migrant workers (mostly Turks and North
Africans). Not until an outcry of outrage from the world
community and a general complaint from German
business leaders that bad publicity was affecting the
course of foreign trade and investment did Bonn and
Chancellor Kohl awaken to these acts of violence.
And incidentally, how did the German central
government respond to the harassment, abuse, and
occasional murder of innocents on the basis of their race?
Unjustly and inadequately. Instead of exacting severe
measures against the neo-nazi perpetrators of these
offenses, the government misdirected its wrath and passed
legislation limiting Germany’s immigration influx and
narrowing the doors to foreigners seeking refuge. While
Germany is a sovereign nation which has a right to control
its own affairs of state, we believe that its behavior in
redress of xenophobic attacks against foreigners was
incompatible with the moral and social obligations of a
democracy. What kind of precedent would it set if the
U.S. responded to an outbreak of violence against a
certain ethnic group within its borders by gradually
Testricting that group’s ability to emigrate to the U.S.? We
bet any number of human rights watchdog groups, and
even a delegation of Senators or Congressmen from
Washington, would cry foul. Now considering Germany’s
history of “ethnic cleansing,” what sort of message would
this policy send to victims past and present?
What can be done? There are countless other reminders
in modern Germany of the ideology of intolerance left
behind by the defeated Nazis. This influence is projected
by a growing number of young people; the same ones who

ASPhyxiation With the
Tiger
Many people love to go to the movies. There is just something about
the experience that people are willing to pay out of their assholes to see
the latest flicks. They could easily wait for these movies to come out on
video, and pay far less for more viewings, but some things just can’t
seem to wait that long.
I myself am no exception to this. I mean, it’s not like I’m made out of
money or anything—after all, I attend a SUNY. My family doesn’t seem
to mind much—I spend my money so | can warn them what not to
spend theirs on. Kind of a bum deal for me, eh?
There are many reasons why people head out in droves to their local
theaters. One reason may be that they just need to get out of the house.
Perhaps it’s raining, and, well, it'd be one hell of a neat trick if you could
get soaked in a movie theater (an exception being the runaway beer
compliments of the guy behind you).
Another reason may be that on this particular occasion you get to go
for free. Hey, you can’t argue with free. Maybe you got a
complimentary pass, or you know the manager of the theater (or
sleeping with her kid), or perhaps you’re a spitting image of Roger Ebert
or Gene Siskel (though I wouldn’t go yelling that one out all that loudly).
But perhaps the most popular reason to go to the movies is for a date.
Let's face it~it’s the cheapest date you can go on and still get any
respect from your companion (if the best you can do is McDonald’s or
Burger King, dig a hole and bury yourself in it). Of course, if you got one
of those free passes, it’s even cheaper.
Now, the big question becomes, what movie should you take your
date to? Sure, you could ask, but that would be too simple. Besides, you
want it to be a surprise. So what do you do? Allow me to make a
suggestion.
Go see a horror movie. I admit that this opinion is a bit biased, since I
am a big horror movie fan. Not too many people would take this
approach to a night out at the movies. | believe this is because there is a
great deal of ignorance towards the genre.
“Oh, it’s nothing but some wacko running around killing young coeds,
who always seem to misplace their clothing for half the movie. It’s
soooooo disgusting.” I'm sorry—is there a problem with that? Even if
there is, this type of film (brace yourself), your typical hack-and-slash,
slice-and-dice flick (are you sitting down?), is not the only one which
exists in horror,
{I will confess here that such ignorance is understandable. | mean,
when the same killer is brought back 37,582 times, and does the same
thing in all of them; it gets pretty irritating. However, as long as there’s
lots of blood and gore, be it far from me to complain too much.]
A different type of horror movie is the vampire story (and no, Dracula
was not the only one ever made). This is usually some type of lovey-
dovey thing where the vampire falls for the hot babe who’s seeing some
geek who along with his friends saves the day at the end. However,
some of them are done very well, and are worth checking out.
But not all vampire flicks are like this. Some of them can get quite
sick, which is right up my alley (the more blood, the better, | always
say). And no matter what, how the vampire is finally killed is always
good for some serious gore. Now how on earth can you dislike that?
And believe it or not, there are intelligent horror movies. As my
roommate's thesis on the subject of horror has come to show me,
sometimes you gotta look at the reflection in the blood to see what’s
really going on. Example of horror movies nobody should miss include
John Carpenter’s Halloween (for those who are faint of stomach), Clive
Barker's Hellraiser (you may faint unless you have a strong stomach),
and Sam Raimi’s The Evil Dead (another brilliant gorefest).
However, these quality horror movies are too rare for the average
moviegoer to like horror. But I highly recommend it as a quality way to
spend your evening.
Now, maybe you've never tried this before. How do you know this is a
good move? Real simple. If, at some point during or after the movie,
one of you pukes up the popcorn on the other’s lap, then it was
definitely a bad decision. If, however, one of you becomes so scared
that the other has to hold you—tightlyto comfort you, then you have
without question chosen wisely (you might want to practice this
technique—it could come in handy someday). Of course, if your date
throws you off, well, happy landings.

Adrian Lyne—the director of 9
1/2 weeks, Fatal Attraction and the
movie that will replace The
Crying Game as the number one
topic of conversation in many-
plexes, Indecent Proposal—has a
knack for picking subjects which
strike at the epicenter of the
American psyche. This time the
fatal attraction is not adultery,
it’s money. As a result, every
couple in America is asking each
other THE QUESTION: well,
would you or wouldn’t you?
Sleep with Robert Redford for a
million smackeroos, that is.
Adam Meyer
Whatever the merits of Lyne’s
movie, they will be largely
ignored in the face of the moral
dilemma which overshadows
the entire experience. That's too
bad, since Lyne has done a good
job with the material. Certainly
Indecent Proposal is more
deserving of acclaim than the
movie which served up boiled
rabbit, though it’s not on par
with the director’s last movie,
the haunting and sophisticated
Jacob’s Ladder.
Lyne has an affinity for
symbolism, which is probably
ignored by an audience not
accustomed to its presence
(fellow English majors excluded,
of course). After David (Woody
Harrelson) has watched Diana
(Demi Moore) go off with Gage
(Redford), he is seated in a
Hawaiian restaurant with a
tremendous fountain in the
background. No explanation
necessary, I hope. The initial
negotiations for David’s wife
take place during a game of
billiards (phallic symbol,
anyone?), while he and Gage
move around the table like
piranhas. And so on.
The film’s success depends
largely on the characters: if you
don’t believe in David and
Diana, their saga is pointless.
Part of the credit goes to a script
with better than average
dialogue, but much of it is owed
to the two main players. After an
unimpressive start to her career
(i.e. The Seventh Sign), Moore has
proved to be a versatile actress.
Although he’s only done a
handful of film stints, Harrelson
should last well after Cheers has
gone belly-up.
The other critical element is to
create a believable situation in
which David and Diana would
want the money. So Lyne shows
us that they’re destitute (if they
don’t get fifty grand to the bank,
they'll lose their house, which
David the brilliant architect has
designed), but worse, they
almost make the money
themselves in a Las Vegas casino
(yeah, right) and lose it when
David picks the wrong color in
roulette.
But forget the lovebirds, for
this is the next step on the Robert
Redford comeback trail. He
wasn’t exactly washed-up, but
like so many of the former hunks
in middle-agedom, what has he
done for Hollywood lately?
Sneakers was a start, his
directorial stint for A River Runs
Through It was extremely
impressive, and in Indecent
Proposal he steals the show. The
man oozes charisma, he radiates
sexuality. As he tells Diana, he
doesn’t have to pay for
women—but he will pay for her,
because she’s the one he wants.
The movie is extremely well-
photographed. Every scene has
one or more shots which are
beautifully composed, and
despite some abuse of the voice-
over, Lyne handles the cinematic
language like an artist—if only
he had the quality of screenplay
he did for Jacob’s Ladder. There
are some Fahrenheit 451 sex
scenes, which Lyne treats
expertly and without any explicit
nudity (Moore's forearm doesn’t
count). Imagine, less can be
more. Perhaps Paul “Basic
Instinct” Verhoeven should have
taken lessons from this man.
Though it’s not just
community, Hollywood has a
tendency to bow to politically
correct influences—witness the
Rising Sun debacle, in which the
killer in Michael Crichton’s novel
has undergone an identity
change. On other hand,
sometimes filmmakers are not as
enlightened as they could be.
Fifty bucks on forty-second
street or a million in Vegas, it’s
prostitution just the same.
There’s some talk about women
as property (“I'd do it for you,”
Diana tells David in regard to
Gage’s offer) and the like, but
ultimately everyone in the movie
degrades themselves, so to call
the film sexist is to miss the
point.
Without giving too much
away, I will say that my
estimation of Indecent Proposal
was reduced a notch in the final
two minutes. It’s the kind of
ending where you expect the
Energizer Bunny to roll across
the screen. The integrity of the
characters, whom we have come
to believe in, is violated; the
intelligence of the audience is
grossly insulted. I’m not a
gambling man, but I’ll bet a
million, bucks that studio
intervention was the problem;
fortunately it’s too little too late,
and an otherwise solid movie
prevails.

JAKE ROBERTS BRINGS His SNAKE TO ALBANY
Pro-Wrestler
Interviewed by
WCDB’s Ron and
Brian
lways the entertainer, Jake “The Snake”
A rcrer strutted through the Ratt, snake
skin boots on his feet, a Hard Rock Cafe
denim on his back, and in his left hand a plastic
bag holding his ‘pet.’ The elevator ride to the
WCDB radio interview was filled with quick one
liners and subtle innuendoes, “After two marriages
I've found that snakes aren’t that bad.”
Kevin Sonsky
When we were prepubescent boys, we thrilled at
every clothesline and bloody forehead Pro-
Wrestling could throw at us. We howled
for every body slam and practiced
imitation DDT’s on each other in
honor of our heroes. Why? It’s like
Jake said on the recording for
WCDB’s ‘Ron and Brian Show:’
“There are two things that will
always sell: sex and violence.”
Nevertheless, his initial impact
on me soon moderated. When
you grow up you lose the
youthful awe you had in your
favorite superhero or sports
god. Is that why no heads
turned in the Ratt? Maybe.
But what's important is that
Jake didn’t care. He never
searched nervously for
groupie-lined hallways or
any spot of recognition.
It's a good thing because
he wouldn't have found it
outside the radio station.
I’ve grown out of wanting to be the World
Wrestling Champ, but now I admire The Snake’s
acceptance of reality. I tend to believe that we
underestimate the drastic change in lifestyle. While
on the circuit for ten years, he entertained
Wrestlemania audiences of 94,000 fans and
traveled everywhere from Japan to Canada, from
Europe to Australia. What do you do when you've
decided your body can’t take it anymore, but that
you've still got the spirit, and you have to say
goodbye to all the fame and fortune? Jake accepts
it, then goes right on milking his vanity because
that’s his job. He’s not an athlete, he’s a performer.
“I can go out to an arena and I can make 90,000
people laugh, cry. . .it’s a natural charisma
and I’ve got a double dose!”
The routines may be
choreographed, but the
hard hits” and
missed cues
have
Staff Photo by Edwil Fontanilla
added up to three neck surgeries, broken bones,
and a weathered face of someone who looks
older than 38. He admits to getting tired of the
grind, but the showman has an image and will
continue to uphold it, in or out of the ring,
whenever there’s a microphone ready. And
», so, his ego firmly in place in the annals of
wrestling history, he feels quite
complimented when the new generation of
| wrestlers copy his style. “I’ve never been
an imitator...I’ve always been an
innovator.”
So he’ll do some more movie cameos, host
some car shows, and show his face all
over. But no more screaming stadium-
filled fans and no more fancy jets.
» Historically, entertainers subsequently
drown themselves in drugs and
alcohol when faced which such
situations. But at only 38, it’s all
okay with Jake. I guess it’s no
big deal when you carry a cobra
with enough venom to drop
two bull elephants.
Jake “The Snake” Roberts shows off his pet cobra to Ellen Kui.

Fax Tears Us Apart
To the Editor:
Now that almost all of us are finished filling out our
income tax forms, it seems like a good time to look at the
history of the income tax in America. It’s history may not
be as long as you would think. In fact, for over 130 years,
most of this nation's existence, there was no federal
income tax. When the federal government first tried to
impose the income tax, it was found to be
unconstitutional. It wasn’t until the 16th amendment was
passed on February 25th, 1913, that the federal
government was allowed to tax its citizens.
This new influx of cash is what gave the government
the ability to practice international imperialism. Without
these new funds, the government would have been
unable to afford to enter World War One. The same is of
course true for our more recent wars like Korea and
Vietnam. This new cash also helped the government fight
the first ever “war on drugs” prohibition. We’re still
fighting this today — to the tune of 12.7 BILLION dollars
a year, and that’s just at the federal level.
In 1918, the average citizen paid 5% of his/her income
to federal income tax. In 1950 that number was up to
16%. By 1990, the number was up to 37% and it just
keeps getting higher. Taxes are much higher in America
now than they were when the 13 colonies decided to
revolt from the rule of King George the Third in 1776. At
the rate of increase we have now, the average taxpayer
will be paying 100% of his/her income to taxes by the
year 2050.
“But at least,” you say, “the government is spending
our money on something worthwhile.” Well, I’m sure
there are some things that are, but our government
spends a lot of money on things like the following — one
billion dollars for farmers not to farm. 121 million to
store helium for blimps! Stranger still are the
contradictory expenditures: 8 billion dollars for
agricultural subsidies, plus laws and tariffs that
artificially drive up the prices of things like milk, cheese,
peanuts, and sugar. Then the Fed spends 29 billion
helping poor people buy food. Some people could surely
afford these things on their own if the government didn’t
artificially inflate the price.
Probably the strangest contradictory expenditure is
related to tobacco. First, the government subsidizes
tobacco growers. Then, it spends money on all kinds of
programs to discourage people from using tobacco
products. Finally, government ends up paying for the
medical expenses brought on by people who went ahead
and bought tobacco anyway.
Just something to think about while you're waiting for
your tax return.

Apathy Is Healthy
To the Editor:
Recently, our campus members seem to have SUNY —
Apathy. Many organization leaders seem to view this as
bad, as something to dispel. The ASP is flooded with
letters attempting to rally the masses into action. These
leaders are trying to make a political statement.
Apathy is as much as a political statement as action.
When one is apathetic, or SUNY — Apathetic, they are
saying that they are happy with their current situation,
that there is no plight they need to address. If there is a
virus of apathy on this campus, as some seem to indicate,
then I believe that we have an optimal situation. Only
people who feel that there is a serious problem to address
need to discuss it. Our Student Association seems to be
upset because it can’t get political action with the student
body.
As for SUNY - Apathy, our students are frustrated
with the administration, not apathetic. Many of our
concerns are not being heard, or addressed for that
matter. This is something that the S.A. can capitalize on.
An example of the S.A.’s inability to address a
problem could be the cleanliness of our school. True, it
does get vandalized, but wear and tear is our real
problem. Our campus gets dirty fast because, let’s face it,
it’s a mudpie. I’ve been through six pairs of shoes, and
I’m only a frosh. And, you can’t mean to tell a rational
person that the reason why four out of every ten lights in
the library has burnt out is due to thievery. (Thievery of
light bulbs from the library is an excuse that
administration or UPD would use.)
But, if this does not concern students, then let it be that
way. Apathy, in my opinion, is healthy. Our society’s
goal is to allow people to have life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness: If people don’t have worries, then
they are apathetic. If they are apathetic, they are on the
road to happiness.
Scott Bogin
A Letter From Japan
To the Editor:
Ihave been wanting to write an article to the ASP for a
while now about my experience in Japan, but I find it
hard to do for I can’t seem to capture my experience and
feeling of Japan and condense it into an article. For those
of you contemplating coming to Japan going abroad, do
it. This letter is for you.
You may be thinking, “Well I'd like to do it, but.” If
the problems you face are no money, transferring credit
problems, in the fourth year already, can only speak
English, never traveled that much let alone outside the
country, don’t worry so much. These cancers can be
circumvented. There are people here who had the same
problems without any Japanese or have never traveled
out of their home state, and others who are thrilled to be
here having a great cultural exchange. If learning a
language is not your thing, there are many programs to
English speaking countries. The main point is to go.

Tikkun Olam Heals
To the Editor:
“Tikkun Olam: To Heal Repair and Transform the
World” is a new group here on campus. We have met
three times and have had 20 participants including 12
core members. Many of us were attracted to Tikkun
because we heard it was a “progressive” or “liberal”
alternative Jewish group where we could possibly
organize a new socially conscious Jewish voice. Others
were drawn to Tikkun because we have felt ostracized by
radical or Socialist groups on campus because of their
simplistic stance on Israeli existence. Most of us have
been ethically unable to fully align ourselves with any
political group on campus because of these reasons.
Therefore, we have determined no ideological base for
Tikkun Olam. Rather, we have been utilizing our first
meetings as conscious raising salons. We have read
Socialism of Fools: Anti-Semitism On The Left by
Michael Lerner, where he explores a variety of issues
including: “Zionism: its legitimacy and tragic flaws”,
historical anti-semitism, present anti-semitism on the left,
and the need for Jews to organize for social change (ie.
Black liberation, women’s liberation, Palestinian
liberation). We have been analyzing the concept offered
in the book and have been discussing, in depth, racism in
America and what our place is as Jews in the fight for
human liberation. For most of us, this type of political
activity is a direct expression of our Judaism. And
needless to say, we certainly do not agree unanimously
on every issue. Our meetings are a center for intellectual
discourse. We realize that we can not set high goals for
now here at SUNY. We just want students here at SUNY
to be aware of Tikkun Olam because that Jewish left has
been silenced for so long. We also would like political
groups to know that although we are still new and in the
forming, we are very interested in aligning on many
political fronts. Everyone interested in Tikkun Olam are
invited to our meetings on Wednesday nights at 7:30 at
Humanities 358 or look for signs.
Truth Hits Everybody
To the Editor:
I am writing of my revelation that nobody knows
anything at all about absolutely anything. After studying
eternal truths, I have studied other truths that point out
the falseness in the original. I have read one genius
define a fact and have read an equally brilliant soul who
held the opposite definition as the absolute truth. I have
seen those who at one time repulsed one another
hypnotized by the.love they now share. I have seen
people who have claimed to love each other forever and
they now despise one another eternally. I have seen the
New York Mets predicted to win the World Series and
finish in the cellar and in a different season, another
expert picked last place for the same team and they now
wear World Series rings. I have heard of one man
viciously and brutally attack an innocent stranger and
now the victim credits the horrible incident for turning
his life around. I have read of a priest molesting a small
boy and I have read of a serial killer rescuing a baby
from a burning building. Why is it that everyone claims
to be an expert and virtually everybody claims to know
what is truly right in this world and then all their proof
has been refuted time and time again and now it is held
as untrue. I am writing this because my revelation has
brought me such happiness that I wish to share it with the
world. And this revelation is my realization that I know
absolutely nothing. I do not know why I study for tests,
and I do not know why I plan on going to law school. I
do not know why I have lied to others in the past. I do
not know why I love my parents, and I do not know why
Tam a vegetarian. I do not know why I voted for George
Bush and I certainly do not know why anyone voted for
Bill Clinton. I do not know why I do not steal from
others and I do not know why I spend hours every week
exercising. If whoever reads this is at all perceptive, they
will realize that I honestly just do not know anything at
all. What I can tell you is that I am enjoying this
rollercoaster ride that people call life. I hope it does not
end too soon because I am having fun and hey who
knows, maybe someday I will learn something. On
second thought, I do not want to know anything. If I did,
perhaps I will claim to really know and understand what
is really right, and then I would be just like everyone
else.

Lady Danes had the bases loaded
with still no one out. Rotella
worked out another Albany walk
and Emslie came home.
Freshman Jennifer Walker then
provided a big hit and two more
runs came in.
Catching Binghamton off
guard, Whipple laid down the
perfect suicide squeeze. All run-
ners were safe and Rotella came
in to close the Colonial lead to
8-7.
With Albany one run behind
and with the bases loaded and
none out, the Lady Danes were
on the verge of blowing the
game wide open. However, the
Colonials hung tough and
Albany couldn’t get another run-
ner across the plate in the inning.
Junior Linda Robisky ground-
ed into a force out at home.
VanCampen then hit a towering
pop-up to short. Emslie ground-
ed out and Binghamton escaped
the jam with a one run lead.
Binghamton added an insur-
ance run in the sixth and entered
the bottom of the seventh cling-
ing to a two run lead.
But a rally seemed imminent.
Whipple hit a sharp grounder to
shortstop. Somehow the ball
skipped under the shortstop’s
glove and then as if by magic
under the leftfielder’s glove.
By the time the ball was
returned to the infield, Whipple
was standing on third. Guadiello
squeezed her home and the Lady
Danes were again within one.
However that would be the last
Albany baserunner. Binghamton
hung on for a 9-8 victory.
“It was the first time we scored
that many runs, but it was our
fielding that did us in,” Selner
summed up.
Albany totaled 13 hits for the
game to break out of their batting
slump.
Next up for the Lady Danes is

Effectively, a lack of education
can be blamed for Germany’s
bout with its disaffected youth.
Arguably, the Holocaust is
thought to have occurred because
the masses knew no better than
to follow the rantings of a certi-

from the Holocaust as evidence
of the mankind’s potential for
savagery. If today, when eyewit-
nesses to this tragedy still live,
people have begun
to get desensitized to the horrors
of the Holocaust, then what will
happen 30 years from now when
there are no more survivors?
We know through Hitler’s
writings and actions that the
Nazis principal objective during
the war was the elimination of
the Jews. Even when resources
were desperately needed by the
German army on their various
fronts, men and materiel were
not redeployed from their task of
Jewish annihilation. Such
methodical butchery must not,
can not, go unrecorded. Indeed,
many survivors of the Holocaust
have authored numerous books
on the subject, and still others
have consented to be videotaped;
but the vast majority have only
let their stories be known to
close friends and family mem-
bers.
Since eyewitness testimony is
included among the most solid,
reliable evidence we have of
Nazi atrocities, we as concerned
Jews must press for its continu-
ing availability and accessibility.
Many of the students on campus
have relatives that survived the
Holocaust, or perhaps have
grandparents who might have
been liberators of the camps.
Whoever they may be, it is unde-
niably urgent that you contribute
to this oral history of the
Holocaust and have these stories
saved on videotape. Holocaust
remembrance day has just
passed. It marks an opportune
time to embark on this mission
of historical significance by
extending the life span of these
fragile memories.
Whether in Germany or the
U.S., the words of philosopher
George Santayana come to mind:
“those who can not remember
history are condemned to repeat
it.” If we do not attack the mon-
ster of ignorance that faces us
then right wing leaders like Jean
Marie Le Pen of France will be
heeded when they call the
Holocaust an insignificant event
in history. And then you can con-
tain your surprise when in some
way history does repeat itself.
If the words “Never Again”
echo the suffering of the Jewish
people and the world during the
painful years of the Holocaust,
then all of us must do our part to
ensure that history is not forgot-
ten.

serious injury and three have
minor injuries, all including
burns. One person taken into
custody told authorities that peo-
ple inside the compound had set
the blaze, Stern said.
The person said that as he left
one of the buildings, “He could
hear above him people saying,
‘The fire’s been lit, the fire’s
been lit,’” Stern said.
““We can only assume it was a
massive loss of life, ” FBI
spokesman Bob Ricks said in a
solemn afternoon news confer-
ence.
Ricks said multiple witnesses
spotted cult members setting
several fires.
One person, Ricks said, “was
knelt down with his hands
cupped, from which a flame
erupted.”
FBI agents reported seeing a
man wearing a gas mask and
black uniform throw something
inside, followed by a fireball.
Additionally, Ricks said, a man
found Monday afternoon in a
bunker on the grounds said
lantern fuel had been spread
throughout the wooden conplex
and that the fire was started
simultaneously in several places.
Koresh had warned the FBI in
a letter last week that agents
would be “devoured by fire” if
they tried to harm him.
A maze of tunnels was
believed to run under the com-
plex, but Jack Killorin, a
spokesman in Washington for
the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco
and Firearms, said the agency
believed no tunnel system would
have allowed people to survive
the fire.
“It’s a bad end and one of the
ends we feared from the begin-
ning, ” Killorin said. “Obviously,
suicide was a concern all along,
but the method was different,
unexpected.”
Attorney General Janet Reno
approved the assault and
informed President Clinton. The
FBI notified the compound’s
neighbor; before daybreak “that
it would end today,” according to
Melanie Pelton, a nearby ranch-
er.
Late in the day, Reno said the
FBI assault had been carefully
planned over several days. She
added that she “could not give
the president that assurance” that
the agents could prevent a mass
suicide such as the cyanide poi-
soning that killed 313 people at
Jonestown, Guyana, in 1978.

Ten empty trucks that had
been part of the Srebrenica con-
voy were sent back to Belgrade
after officials told the UNHCR
tepresentatives they would not
allow any evacuation by truck.
The remaining nine trucks
were expected to continue to
Srebrenica after Serbs complet-
ed their inspection at Zvornik on
the Yugoslav-Bosnian border,
UNHCR spokeswoman Lyndall
Sachs said in Belgrade.
All the trucks have new metal

the Bosnian war have collapsed
over the past year.
Under the cease fire, both
sides are to hold their positions
and keep all supporting guns,
rockets and artillery in place.
Within 72 hours, the
Srebrenica area is to be com-
pletely demilitarized, U.N.
peacekeepers’ spokesman Barry
Frewer said. That could be
accomplished either by pulling
out weapons from the area or
turning them over to the peace-
keepers.
The Serbs were expected to
redeploy outside the Srebrenica
zone. The Muslims, with
nowhere to go, seemed to have
no choice but to hand over their
arms. After that, U.N. troops
would be tesponsible for the
area’s security.

Croats on Sunday detonated a

Bosnia’s Croats and Muslims

February 1992. Serbs fighting
the secession have seized about
70 percent of the country, and
Croats, ostensibly allies of the

Albany baseball improves record to 3-2
By Hat Moss
Staff Writer
The Albany baseball team has
won two of their last three games
to improve their record to 3-2.
They split their doubleheader
last Thursday at home versus
Middlebury College after
defeating Williams College,
12-6, on the road the day before.
Albany won the first game of
the twinbill, 7-1.
Clint Kiehl, a senior, pitched a
complete game (seven innings
for doubleheaders), yielding only
five hits and one earned run.
Kiehl struck out nine and walked
two.
“Kiehl pitched an incredible
game.” Albany coach Ed Zaloom
said.
Senior shortstop Duane
Theleman and junior first
baseman Howie Rosenkrantz
each had two hits to pace
Albany. Senior catcher Dan Ryan
collected three hits and three
runs batted in, including a
two-run homer.
The third inning was the
turning point of the
game. Theleman led off with a
single. Ryan followed with a
two run homer. Rosenkrantz then
singled and stole second. Junior
Leo Garcia then walked.
Sophomore Marty Geagan’s
grounder to third moved the
runners to second and third with
only one out. Senior Rich
Wieting’s grounder to third was
misplayed, allowing Rosenkrantz
to score. Junior Matt Curley
singled in Garcia for the fourth
run of the inning to make it a
5-0 lead for Albany.
The second game was much
tougher for Albany. Middlebury
avenged the loss with a 12-2
rout of the Danes. Albany
pitcher, Leon Feingold , a junior,
had a rough outing.
In the first inning, Feingold
was wild. With the bases loaded
and two outs, he walked Doug
Mandigo for the first run. He
then hit Tim Loescher and Alec
Perkins before retiring Brad
Smith on a pop fly to left field to
end the inning.
In the second inning,
Middlebury’s Matt Gora lined a
single to right with runners on
second and third with no outs to
drive in two runs. Feingold then
struck out Mandigo and
Loescher to end the inning.
Trailing 7-0 in the bottom of
the third, Albany got some
offense started. Junior third
baseman Dave Sottile led off
with a single up the middle.
Freshman Dan Heslin was then
hit by a pitch. Following a balk,
there were runners on second
and third with no outs.
Freshman Greg Marro’s sacrifice
fly to deep rightfield scored
Sottile for the Danes’ first run.
Juan Zayas, a freshman,
grounded out to third and
Theleman struck out to end the
inning down, 7-1.
In the fourth inning,
Middlebury added five more
runs. Perkins hit a two-run
single to right with runners on
second and third and no outs.
Zaloom then replaced Feingold
with freshman Keith Walsh.
Walsh was greeted with a one
out double to rightfield, by
Smith, to put runners on second
and third and one out.
Middlebury’s Joe Bradley
knocked in two more runs with a
line drive single up the middle.
Gorra’s two-out single to left
center drove in the fifth run of
the inning, giving Middlebury a
12-1 lead in the fourth.
Walsh settled down after the
fourth inning, not allowing
another run for rest of the game.
Albany scored its second and
final run in the sixth.
Rosenkrantz singled up the
middle with one out to put
runners on first and second.
Geagan then ripped an RBI
single up the middle to make it a
12-2 game.
Middlebury pitcher John
Pierson dominated, pitching a
seven inning complete game
victory, yielding only two runs.
Albany had defeated Williams
College on the road 12-6 the day
before the Middlebury
doubleheader.
Rich Wieting (2-0) won his
second game of the season for
Albany. With great support he
pitched 8 2/3 innings yielding six
runs and 11 hits. Roger Walters
pitched 1/3 of an inning to pick
up the save.
Albany’s offense was paced by
a 14-hit attack. Theleman, Ryan,
Garcia, Wieting and Curley each
had two hits. Rosenkrantz had
three hits and three RBI’s,
including a double and homerun.
Albany scored six runs in the
top of ninth inning to increase
their 6-3 lead to 12-3. These
Tuns were all needed to offset the
three runs scored by Williams in
the bottom of the ninth.
Albany’s doubleheader on
Saturday the 17th was postponed
due to rain. Yesterday, the Danes
played a twin bill at Southern
Vermont.
Coming up is a road game on
Wednesday at New Paltz at 3:00
p.m, while Thursday, Albany
travels to Hartwick College for a
3:30 p.m. game.
Men’s tennis ends road trip on high note

The Albany men’s tennis team certainly
knows the meaning of the words road
trip. They played five matches in nine
days, all on the road.
Since April 6th, the tennis team has
been on a road trip which has yielded a
record of 3-2. Albany was defeated by St.
John’s (MN) on April 6th by a score of
8-1. On April 13th, Middlebury College,
beat Albany, also with a score of 8-1.
Among the wins Albany can count as
its own is a win over Union University
(TN), 6-2. They then swept Cabrini (PA),
9-0.
Albany’s latest win came against Vassar
College on April 15th, 7-2.
Albany first swept all three doubles
matches. Juniors Matt Presser and Steve
Cohen defeated their rivals, 8-4. Senior
Adam Addelston and junior Jon Rudnick
defeated Hiro Shimizu and Ben Escarcega
of Vassar, 8-2. Sophomore Paul Garnock
and freshman Ken Blume won with a
score of 8-4.
All the singles matches were won by
Albany with the exception of Presser’s
and Blume’s matches.
Presser lost to Vassar’s Steve Neu in
three sets. Presser lost the first set in a tie-
breaker, 5-7. He then proceeded to win
the next set, 6-1, tying it up. However he
lost the final set, 3-6.
Blume lost in two sets. His opponent
won the first set with a tie breaker 7-6. He
also lost the second set to Vassar, 6-2.
The rest of the team trounced their
opponents. Addelston led the way
defeating his opponent, 6-1, 6-0. Cohen
beat his opponent, 6-2, 6-0. Rudnick also
won with a score, 6-0, 6-1. Garnock had a
little more trouble but he still won in two
sets, 6-4, 6-4.
“We figured to beat Vassar,”
tennis team coach Bob Lewis.
performed well.”
“There have been no big surprises so
far as the season goes,” Lewis said.
However, he added that losing to
Middlebury was probably the most
disappointing point of the season. But he
did admit that the matches were very
close and could have gone either way.
One of the good points was the road
trip itself. “Going down south was good,”
Lewis said. “It brought the team closer
together.”
Four of the next six matches are going
to be very difficult matches. Skidmore
College, Williams College and Colgate
University are better teams on paper
according to Lewis. Hobart College will
probably be a close match.
“We have to outperform them and we
have to maintain our focus,” Lewis said.
“Since February Ist, the guys have been
playing well and I’ve been satisfied with
their performance,” Lewis said.
The team’s current overall record is
10-6 and their spring record is 4~2.

Men’s track wins Albany Invitational
Nixon sets two records and qualifies for Nationals to lead Danes

Jay Nixon vaulted to new heights as well as a school record.
By MIKE DiRECTOR
Sports Editor
Anchored by two school record setting
performances by sophomore Jay Nixon,
the Albany men’s track and field team
won the third annual Albany Invitational,
held this past weekend.
The Danes compiled 127 points to edge
second place Binghamton State by eight
points. Rounding out the top five were:
R.P.I. (111), Bronx Express Track Club
(90), and Cortland State (82).
The weather conditions were less than
ideal to say the least. Friday it was cold
with 15-20 mph winds while Saturday
saw 25-30 mph winds combine with rain
to slow times down considerably.
In the decathlon, Nixon set a new
school and faculty record in the pole vault
competition. His vault of
15’, 7” broke Tom
Mead’s two-year old
school record (15’ 5”)
and qualified Nixon for
NCAA Division III
National Championships
to be held in late May.
Nixon also won the
decathlon competition,
setting another school
record in the process with
his total of 6,107 points.
Ironically, he again
shattered a Mead record
(5,660) and met the
provisional standards for
Nationals,
Also earning a
provisional berth in the
decathlon was sophomore
Oscar Almendarez, who
placed second with 6,028
points. The freshman combination of
Scott Durivage (5,061) and Shawn
McGrath (4,901) scored fifth and sixth
respectively in the decathlon to help
Albany’s cause.
During the decathlon Nixon also found
time to compete in the open pole vault.
Facing no real competition, Nixon took
only one vault, clearing 13’ 6” to win the
event.
Nixon’s performance was praised by
Albany coach Roberto Vives.
“What makes him so good is his
competitive instincts and his will to do
well,” Vives said.
In the 5000 meters junior Bill Vanos
took second with a time of 14:55.5. He
was the first collegian to score however,
as first place was taken by Pat Cauley, a
former All-American at Cortland State
who now runs for the Bronx Express
Club.
Senior Scott Carroll earned second fF
in the 3000 meter steeplechase with a &
time of 9:43.5,
The 10,000 meters saw
All-American standout Art Gunther §
of Binghamton run 31:04 to place
first. Placing for Albany were junior
Todd Rogers, who took second in
32:16.7, and sophomore Jason DeJoy,
who ran a p.r. (personal record) of
32:22.7 to earn third.
In the 800 meters, junior Howie
Sellers ran away with the race to win
easily with a wind-hampered 1:56.3.
Fellow junior David White placed
third in 2:00.0.

meter high hurdles.
Sophomore Keith Liburd took third
with a wind-aided 11.02 seconds only
losing to two of the non-collegiate
competitors in the 100 meters. In the high
hurdles, sophomore Sean Condell placed
second in 14,99, also aided by the wind.
The 4x100 meter relay team of Liburd,
sophomore Kevin Alicea, sophomore
Melvin Keyes and Condell combined to
place second in 43.7 seconds. R.P.I. was
awarded first place even though they had
the same time as Albany.
These four runners again came together
to compete in the 4x200 meter relay. With
a strong anchor leg by Keyes (22.4) the
Danes earned second place in 1:32.8.
The 4x400 meter relay team had their
work cut out for them, facing last years
4x400 meter NYS Champions,
Binghamton, as well as a tough Bronx
Express squad featuring former Albany
national champion Vernon Miller. With a
time of 3:24, Albany’s team of freshman
Zamafa Chickwendu, freshman David
Abraham, White and Sellers took third,
being edged out by both Bronx Express
and Binghamton,
The Danes will next compete at the
prestigious Penn Relays, which runs from
Wednesday to Saturday.
In the 4x400 meter relay Albany will
face Tufts University, which ran 3:17
indoors, and indoor CTC Champion,
Southern Connecticut State.
The 4x100 meter relay team will also
compete as well as a shuttle hurdle relay
and a sprint medley team.
The only individual to qualify for Penn
Relays is Nixon, who will compete in the
pole vault.
“We will have some stiff competition
and will really be able to test ourselves in
only our second true meet of the season,”
Vives said.
Albany softball splits two with Binghamton State
Patti Gay pitches shutout in first; defense sloppy in second
By Eric DAGNALL
Associate Sports Editor
The Colonials of Binghamton
ventured into the windy confines
of Albany to take on the Albany
softball team in a doubleheader
Sunday.
Albany (4-5) came away with
one win, but it could easily have
been two.
Junior Patti Gay (3-3) pitched
a gem for the Lady Danes in the
first game, posting her first
shutout of the season with a 1-0
victory. It was the perfect time
for the performance since the
bats of Albany remained cold. In
the game the Lady Danes could
only come up with two hits.
The only run that scored came
in the second inning. With two
outs, junior Holly Whipple
grounded a base hit up the
middle. Freshman Karen
Guadiello then laced a single to
left field. When the ball skipped
under the leftfielder’s glove,
Whipple hustled her way around
the bases for the first and only

Gay cruised in the game,
recording a strikeout and
allowing only two hits.
“There was a lot of pressure.
on her to perform,”
Albany head coach ff
Carole Selner said. “Our
other pitcher is out with
an injury.”
Sophomore Kristy
Marino, the second
starter for Albany, will
be out of action for at
least a week with a knee
injury. Gay is now the
only other veteran
pitcher left on the staff.
This puts pressure on her
since she will in all
likelihood be asked to
start both games in a
doubleheader.
“Tf she’s up to the task,
I plan to pitch her in both
games,” Selner said. “If not I'll
have to call upon the freshmen
to pick up the slack.”
Because Gay pitched a terrific
first game, Selner started her in
the second. However, the pitcher
who dominated the Colonials in

Patti Gay pitched her way past Binghamton,
the first game could never get it
going in the second.
Fatigue caught up with Gay,
leading to eight Binghamton
Tuns in the first three innings.
Bad play on the field also proved
to be a downfall of Albany.
“Our fielding was terrible, it
tuined us,” Selner said.
For the game Albany
had five errors, three
more than their season
average.
Already ahead 3-0, the
Colonials batted around
in the third, scoring five
tuns. By the time Gay
4 was replaced by
Guadiello, Binghamton
was in front, 8-0.
The Lady Danes
however never gave up
hope. They gradually
chipped away at the
Colonial lead.
In the bottom of the
third,.. junior Tina
Anatriello came up with runners
on first and third and one out.
She subsequently lined a 2-2
pitch to right. Senior Judy
Emslie came around from
second to make the score 8-1.
On the play senior catcher
Linda Carioto scrambled to third
and her slide beat the throw
while Anatriello advanced to
second. Senior Romi Rotella
then reached on an error,
enabling Carioto to score. The
inning ended when Anatriello
was thrown out at home on a
double steal attempt.
The fireworks for the Lady.
Danes began in the fifth inning.
Senior second. baseman Paige
VanCampen, who had been
hitting the ball hard all day, lined
a single to left. Emslie followed
with one of her own. Carioto
provided a clutch single and
VanCampen came home.
