NUMBER 18

Washington, D.C.
(AP) U.S. Air Force and Navy
jets attacked five targets inside
Libya under cover of darkness
Monday, delivering a response to
what President Reagan called the
‘“*monstrous brutality’’ of
Libyan-backed terrorism.
Defense Secretary Caspar W.
Weinberger said all but one of the
planes - a two-seat F-111 Air
Force bomber - had been ac-
counted for after the attacks. At
least 18 F-111s and 15 Navy at-
tack jets participated in the raids
on ground targets, he added.

Weinberger and other Pen-
tagon officials refused to say the
missing plane had been shot
down, suggesting it could have ex-
perienced radio trouble or
diverted to another landing field.

“We're not going to say
anything further about that plane
until we have absolute confirma-
tion about what happened,” said
Pentagon spokesman Fred
Hoffman.

Libyan radio claimed Monday
that three U.S. aircraft had been
shot down. The broadcast,
monitored in London, said Li-

byans killed the pilots and crew of
the aircraft after they were
downed.

Meanwhile, a Libyan official
said the nation’s leader, Col.
Moammar Khadafy, survived the
attack.

‘*He’s OK, he’s OK,”’ Informa-
tion Director Ibrahim Seger said
in a brief comment to the
Associated Press in the lobby of
the Hotel Al Kabir. He gave no
further information about
Khadafy.

But government sources, who
would not be identified, said that

two of Khadafy’s sons had been
injured in the U.S. bombing
raids. The sources did not name
the sons, and said the extent of
their injuries was not known.

To mount Monday’s attack,
Weinberger said the F-111s had
been forced to fly more than
6,400 miles round-trip because
France had refused permission
for the bombers to fly over its ter-
ritory on their way to the
Mediterranean.

Had such permission been

granted, the bombers could have

Telethon ’86, the 20th anniversary of the naticn’s
oldest college-run telethon, was in the words of
organizers, a big success, grossing over $37,800 for
charity.

During the past weekend alone, Telethon ’86
brought in over $19,000. Auctions held during the
event were enormously successful, bringing in about
$2,700, according to Telethon °86 co-chair Lisa
Buitekant who added that this year’s aucticns made
more money than past auctions had.

The items sold at this year’s auctions, said
Buitekant, included a SUNYA bus bought for $900, a
bus bought for $286 donated by the University, and a
dinner with Student Association President Steve
Gawley, bought by SUNYA students Risa Sonenshine,
Terry Corallo and Joan Bernstein.

The money raised by Telethon ’86 will be donated to
Albany Medical Center’s Department of Pediatrics,
Children’s Cancer Care and Spinabifida programs, and
the Parsons Child and Family Center, which is a hous-
ing unit and school for children with various -han-
dicaps, said Buitekant.

According to Buitekant, the items auctioned off
were collected by the Telethon’s solicitations commit-

year the community was incredible in the amount they
donated,’’ she said.

There were also many donations from the campus
community, said Buitekant, including tickets donated
by University Concert Board, Speakers’ Forum and the
Performing Arts Center.

Suzanne Murphy, Buitekant’s co-chair, said that
although ‘‘not all the money is in yet from the pledges
and auction items,” this year’s Telethon ‘‘may be the
most successful in terms of net,” although the gross
total may be less than other years.

Among the acts that appeared at Telethon this year
included Central Council chair Bill McCann playing a
trumpet out of his right ear, Tony Orlando and Dawn

Tom Jones look-a-like.

In choosing the acts, Sandra Lehrman, the talent co-
chair said, ‘‘Basically, we don’t turn any acts away.
Out of 24 hours, 18 are acts. It’s a lot of time, so
basically you can do it [an act],” said Lehrman.

The other six hours are devoted to children’s hours.

UAS opts to keep
Barnes and Noble

five more years

By llene Weinstein
NEWS EDITOR

The University Auxiliary Services (UAS) Board of
Directors voted unanimously Friday in a one-hour
meeting to renew Barnes and Noble Bookstore’s contract
for another five years according to UAS General
Manager E. Norbert Zahm.

Barnes and Noble, which has run SUNYA’s bookstore
facilities since 1982, competed against Follett College
Stores, which for eight years prior to 1982 had run the
university’s bookstore, to win the contract. Both com-
panies are nationwide chains.

The contract was awarded to Barnes and Noble because
of the terms of their bid, their ideas for renovating the
bookstore and their ties with a large used book service,
said Zahm.

In the third year of the contract, UAS has the option of
extending the contract for a total of eight years, if a plan
for a new UAS campus building housing certain facilities
including the bookstore are approved.

According Barnes and Noble’s bid, UAS will receive
7.5 percent.of bookstore sales each year that sales are
under $4 million and 8.5 percent of sales are over $4
million. UAS is also guaranteed a commission of
$450,000 for each year of the contract.

According to Follett’s bid, UAS would have received 8
percent of bookstore sales each year that sales were over
$4 million and a guaranteed commission of $400,000 each
year of the contract.

Zahm said bookstore sales currently average slightly
above $4 million.

Barnes and Noble’s ideas for the redecoration of the
store, including improvements in the display areas,
lighting, carpets, and ceiling treatment, were also con-
sidered by the Board, said Zahm. ‘‘We were impressed by
the overall decor’’ of the plans, he said.

These improvements will be discussed and voted on by
the Board and the university ‘sometime in the next
month,”’ said Zahm, and will be completed over the sum-
mer. The work will cost Barnes and Noble about
$250,000, he said.

The Board also approved of Book Service, one of the
largest used book services in the country, last year, said
Dan Altman, student chair of the UAS Board of
Trustees.

But, Altman said, Follett and Barnes and Noble are
“two of the best bookstores in the world. It was a tough
decision to make.”’ Altman was one of the travelling com-
mittee which visited other Barnes and Noble and Follett
stores in March in order to rate their operations.

The stores were rated on nine different criteria in-
cluding corporate philosophy; employment; textbook,
computer, and used book services; merchandise; and
training of employees, said Altman. ‘‘It was a very
regimental process,’’ he said.

It was the‘‘consensus after going over the criteria ae

Marcos faction rallies

Manila, Philippines
(AP) Supporters of deposed President Fer-
dinand E. Marcos clashed with police
Monday in a fray that injured 60 people,
and Marcos loyalists called for Civil
disobedience at a rump session of the
abolished National Assembly.

Anti-riot troops tangled with Marcos
followers in a melee of rock-throwing and
gunfire. The loyalists were protesting the
ouster of former Mayor Joseph Estrada,
who served under Marcos, in the Manila
suburb of San Juan.

Police Chief Lt. Col. Enrique
Aguinaldo said police were attacked first
by stones, Molotov cocktails and gunfire
from the crowd at San Juan.

Police said that 60 anti-riot police had to
deal with a crowd of up to 1,000 that was
caught in the fighting. Hospitals reported
60 people hurt, including 18 policemen.

World tour underway

Peking
(AP) A Canadian traveling around the
world in a wheelchair Monday embarked
on the Peking-Shanghai leg of his journey,
accompanied by 12 disabled Chinese and a
throng of wellwishers.

“T hope the spirit of our trip will remain
in China forever,’’ Rick Hanses, 28, said
before leaving Peking Workers Stadium.
“Remember, never give up your dreams.’’

Hensen, who was paralyzed in a car ac-
cident 13 years ago, has traveled more than
14,000 miles in 30 countries.

His 13-month journey has proved that
“people can accomplish anything,’’ Cana-
dian Ambassador Richard V. Gorham told
the crowd.

Rebel row restarted

Washington, D.C.
(AP) Round three of the long-running bat-
tle over military aid to Nicaraguan rebels
will be fought on the House floor this
week, with President Reagan hoping to
reverse last month’s defeat of his plan to
provide military help to the U.S.-backed
guerrillas.

The issue, which will be considered
Tuesday by the Democratic-controlled
House, is the main item on this week’s
congressional agenda.

Tuesday also is the deadline Congress
has set for itself to pass a budget for the
fiscal year starting Oct. 1, but that date

has become bogged down in a dispute bet-
ween the White House and Congress over
military spending and taxes.

Reagan has proposed giving $100
million to the U.S.-supported Contra
rebels fighting Nicaragua’s leftist San-
dinista government. A previous package of
$27 million in non-lethal aid such as
medicine and clothing expired March 31.

Children find bodies

Wilmington, Del.
(AP) Six children awakening from a
slumber party found the body of the
mother of two of the youngsters, and
police say the woman may have died as
Part of a murder-suicide involving a co-

worker.

The children had spent the night in the
basement of the home and early Sunday
found the body of Bonnie'S. Griffiths, 33,
of Woodbrook, a Du Pont chemist, on her
bed, police said. She apparently had been
strangled with an electrical cord.

The body of Christian Joseph Machiels,
37, who neighbors said had been living
with Ms. Griffiths, was found by detec-
tives shortly after noon Sunday in his of-
fice at the Du Pont Co. Experimental Sta-
tion. A company security guard told police
Machiels had signed in early Sunday
morning.

Capt. Olin W. Slaughter and Detective
Vera Briscoe said Sunday the case initially
was classified as a murder-suicide, but of-
ficials were still trying to determine a
motive in the killing.

The State

Sabatoge questioned

New York
(AP) Investigators have found evidence
that last month’s Mexicana Airlines crash
in which 166 people died was caused bya
mechanical problem rather than by a ter-
rorist bomb, The New York Times
reported Monday.

Indications are that an explosion in a
wheel well for the landing gear led to the
crash March 31, the newspaper said.

It cited sources close to the investigation
as saying that none of the normal signs of
sabotage, such as explosives residue or
telltale patterns of structural rupture, have
been detected in the wreckage of the Boe-
ing 727. The newspaper also said in-
vestigators had not ruled out sabatoge.

Branding under fire

Rochester
(AP) Two professors testified in federal
court that there are less painful methods of
branding cows that are just as effective as
the face-branding required under the
whole-hard dairy buyout plan.

U.S. District Judge Michael Telesca
heard arguments in the dispute between
the Monroe County Humane Society and
the U.S. Department of Agriculture over
whether it is inhumane to brand cows on
the face with hot irons.

A safe and less traumatic alternative is
freeze-branding, which uses liquid
nitrogen, said Dr. Theodore Friend, a
veterinarian at Texas A&M University.

Cuomo seeks law

Albany
(AP) Illegal dumpers of hazardous wastes

could lose their planes, trucks and boats,

Goy. Mario Cuomo,

Cuomo proposed Sunday togrant the
state Department of Environmental Con-
servation the authority to seize materials
used in the illegal generation, transporta-
tion, storage, treatment and disposal of
hazardous wastes.

“The aggressive enforcement of the En-
vironmental Conservation Law is essential
to the public health,” the Democratic
governor said.

In the Friday, April 11 issue of the

Hotel Wellington fate undecided for students

By Colleen Deslaurier
STAFF WRITER

Hotel Wellington officials are still un-
sure whether SUNYA students will be
housed there in the future, and some
students living there now say that the delay
is forcing them to make alternate housing
plans for next semester.

The Wellington is up for sale and
although negotiations for the sale of the
hotel are currently in progress, no decision
about student housing has been made, said
Wellington spokesperson Roz Robinson.

According to Robinson, a similar situa-
tion occurred last year and the hotel lost
many student residents because of the
delay. There are currently 56 SUNYA
students living at the Wellington.

Assistant Director of Residential Life
Tom Gebhardt said that at least 12
students living at the Wellington this
semester have applied for on-campus
housing for next semester.

One sophomore living at the Wellington
said that he is not planning on living at the
Wellington next year because he ‘‘doesn’t
feel that it’s going to be open for two more
years.””

Gebhardt said that Residential Life is
expanding the ‘‘Matchmaker Project,”’

which matches SUNYA students needing
housing with Albany residents who have
extra rooms to rent in order to provide an
additional number of housing possibilities
for students. ‘‘We’re constantly keeping
our ears open for possibilities,’”’ he said.

John Bertot, a senior who has lived at
the Wellington for four years, said that he
chose to live at the hotel because ‘‘[you’re]
allowed to have your own room and your
own bathroom.”

Bertot said the Wellington is a good
place to live because it is far from campus.
He added that if he wasn’t graduating this
year he would probably consider living at
the Wellington again next year.

Another senior graduating next
semester, Jennifer Howie, said that there is
“nobody here anymore — there’s now on-
ly about forty [students] here.”

Howie said that she would consider liv-
ing at the Wellington next year only ‘‘if
they significantly lowered the price and if
more people were here...it’s boring.”

Junior Julie Czajkowski agreed, saying
that the Wellington ‘‘wasn’t as fun
anymore.”” Czajkowski said that she
started living in the Wellington two years
ago as a transfer student because there was

“‘no other place to live.””

Czajkowski said that she ‘‘really liked”
the Wellington, but now, because the hotel
is raising the price and there aren’t as
many people living there, she also wasn’t
planning on living there next year.

LYNN DREIFUS UPS

With the fate of the Hotel Wellington up in the air, students are seeking other hous-
ing alternatives for next year.

ington said that she is moving on campus
next semester because the Wellington is
‘“solated and inconvenient. There’s no
social life there. It’s overpriced and dirty.
There’s no student organization and the
hotel caters absolutely nothing to the
students.””

Liquor permit secures Mayfest ‘beer garden’

By Leigh Bernard
STAFF WRITER

The possibility of not having a Mayfest this year, with
or without alcohol, was eliminated Monday after Student
Association and University Concert Board (UCB) secured
both a temporary beer and wine permit and liquor liabili-
ty insurance.

Without the permit and insurance, there could have
been no alcohol served at the Saturday, May 3 Mayfest,
according to SUNYA Director of Student Activities
Jessica Casey. ‘‘There will be a real Mayfest this year with
beer available to those who are 21 and over,” she said.

Last week UCB announced that The Alarm would
headline this year’s Mayfest, with John Cafferty and the
Beaver Brown Band also appearing.

A third band has not yet been determined, Monte Lip-
man of UCB said yesterday, but the final decision may be
made by late this week, he said.

The first 4,800 persons who want to drink at Mayfest
will be given wristbands with which they may enter into
an area designated as a ‘“‘beer garden,”’ said Casey.

According to Casey, the “‘beer garden” will be a
double-fenced area on the field closest to Indian Quad.
People with the appropriate wristband will be allowed in-

to this area to drink. No alcohol will be permitted out of
the enclosed area.

Double fencing is necessary to prevent people from giv-
ing alcohol to those who are not permitted to drink. ‘“We
are absolutely not interested in anyone under 21 having
alcohol and we don’t want to encourage those who are 21
or over to become intoxicated,”’ said Casey.

UCB President Mark Seligson warned that the im-
plementation of this year’s Mayfest will greatly affect the
possibility of future large events. ‘‘This year’s Mayfest is
an experiment whose results will determine not only if
there will be alcohol at this year’s Mayfest, but if there
will be Mayfest at all,” added Seligson.

Those wishing to drink at Mayfest must present two
forms of I.D., with university identification being only
valid as a picture I.D. Other proof of age must include a
valid driver’s license, birth certificate, sheriff’s I.D., or a
similar official document, said Casey.

According to Casey, the university is pleased with the
New York State Liquor Authority’s decision to grant the
temporary beer and wine permit. ‘‘We feel that there is
enough that this event offers to everyone that it should go
smoothly using the current plan,’’ said Casey.

“The key to success of the event is the student coopera-

ao eee 2 eee ae ee
SUNYA students arrested in Contra aid protest

tion with the rules,” Casey said. ‘‘The extent to which
students cooperate may determine if the state allows
alcohol at next year’s Mayfest.’”

If the state did not approve the temporary alcohol per-
mit for Mayfest, a bring-your-own-bottle plan was con-
sidered as a contingency, said Casey. This plan would
have allowed students who were 21 or over to bring
alcohol with them as long as it was not contained in glass
bottles.

University cooperation was the key factor in securing
the alcohol permit for Mayfest. The University Police
Department (UPD) and the Office of Campus Life of-
fered letters of support and plans for the organization of
the event.

“Without the university‘s cooperation and Jessica
Casey’s efforts at the Office of Campus Life, Mayfest
would probably be dry this year,”? said SA Controller
Eric Schwartzman.

UCB and SA, the chief sponsors of Mayfest, have also
obtained liability insurance at a cost of $2,500.

“This is due to the increased drinking age as well as a
general awareness of the potential responsibility of the
university for those served alcohol at Mayfest.’’ said
Seligson.

Six SUNYA students were among 28
~otestors arrested Monday night after
staging a sit-in to protest Reagan’s pro-
posed $100 million Contra aid package.
The protestors were arrested at the

Bullding downtown.

Leo O’Biren Federal Building in
downtown Albany after refusing to
leave the building before its 6 p.m. clos-
ing time.

About 200 people attended the protest
which was one in a series of protests car-
ried out by the Capital District Pledge of

UPS

Six SUNYA students were arrested along with 22 others at a sit-in at the Federal

Resistance Coalition. a

The six SUNYA students arrested
were sophomore Tom Gaveglia, frosh
Arwen Domenico, senior Rae Bosio,
graduate student Kim Wardrop, senior
Ross DeMarco, and graduate student
David Scotchmer.

Monday night’s demonstration was
triggered by the upcoming proposal of
two bills in Congress that will restrict
Nicaraguan aid.

ccording to Donna DeMaria, staff
person for the Capital District’s Pledge
of Resistance coalition, one of the pro-
posals, the Hamilton Proposal, which
the Pledge of Resistance supports would
not provide aid to the Contras and
would seek $27 million in aid to victims.

The second proposal, the Michael
bill, proposes the same ‘plan that was
passed in the Senate a few weeks ago,
which is a $30 million grant to
Nicaraguan contras providing them with
necessities such as missiles, boots, and
trucks.

The only difference in the proposed
Michael bill is that two amendments
would be added to the current bill that
provides some restrictions in aid, said
De Maria.

“We oppose all aid and therefore
want the Hamilton proposal to pass.

Something will pass, it is only a matter
of how many restrictions there will be,
but in my opinion, I don’t think it will
{the Hamilton proposal] pass,’’ said
DeMaria. She added that the vote will
be held either Wednesday night or early
Thursday.

The protest began with a march from
the Immaculate Conception Cathedral
at Madison Avenue and Eagle Street to
the O’Brien Federal Building on South
Pearl and Clinton Avenue.

When the group reached the Federal
Building they conducted a die-in, which
is ‘a symbolic act of the murder in
Nicaragua,’”’ said Stephen Banbury, a
participant in the protest.

Large cards that represented U.S. In-
ternal Revenue tax forms were also
smeared with ketchup, which signified
blood, said DeMaria.

“The fact that today is tax day is a
major issue — people should know
where their money is going,”’ said Mario
Nelson, another protester.

During the protest, 100 stuffed dum-
mies were piled in two corners inside
and outside the Federal Building. Ac-
cording to. Nelson, the bodies

Fall housing crunch starts
Students find 75 rooms per quad reserved

By Robin Goldhaber

Residential Life had reserved
75 rooms on each quad for fall
frosh and transfer students, said
Assistant Vice President for
Residential Life John Martone,
who added that this follows
university policy of distributing
frosh on all quads.

The policy, which began last
year, has been met with mixed
reactions from students.

Prior to last year, continuing
students signed-up for housing on
the quad of their choice before
spaces had been designated for in-
coming frosh. This past year, 75
bedrooms on each quad were held
for frosh and transfer students
and, according to John Martone
this policy will continue.

“The policy has only met with
positive feedback,’’ said Mar-
tone. Since its institution, the
campus has acquired “* a nice
mix,”’ he said.

Not all students
however.

Maria Maglione, a sophomore
on Dutch quad, said “‘it is really
pitiful that upper classmen can’t
get the housing they want because
of this new policy.”

Frank Boncimino, a frosh liv-
ing on Indian Quad, said he sup-
ported Residential Life’s policy.
“The quads are too stereotyped,”’
he said, adding that “‘people work
together much better when they
are mixed.””

“Tt’s a good idea to mix
freshmen with upperclassmen so
that they get a better understan-
ding of the university and univer-
sity policy,”’ said Leslie Reaves, a

agreed,

junior who said she chose to live
on State Quad, where most frosh
were formerly housed.

There are positive results to
frosh dispersion, including the
new enthusiasm and excitement
added to typically older quads by
frosh and the decline in
disciplinary problems on State
Quad, said Martone. The number
of frosh housed on State Quad
had dropped from 73 percent to
52 percent.

Senior Andy Dars, an Alumni
Quad resident, said that the hous-
ing policy did not affect his choice
of housing this year, but that the
frosh should be ‘‘kept all on the
same quad... they’re too noisy.
There have been a lot of distrac-
tions. Freshmen tend to be the
noisiest people.”

The housing reserved for frosh
and transfer students has been
designated as “‘increased’’ suites,
according to Martone.

Terry Collins, a frosh living on
Alumni Quad who was originally
tripled in a double room said, ‘It
[increased housing] is something
you can deal with, but it adds a
lot of extra strain on a person.”’
Referring to frosh increased hous-
ing, Collins said ‘‘This is our first
time living with someone else and
we have to learn to live with two
people, rather than just one.””

SASU conference addresses women’s rights

By Pam Conway
ASSOCIATE NEWS EDITOR

Self defense, sexual harrass-
ment, and women’s rights were
among the topics addressed at the
Student Association of the State
University (SASU) Women’s
Caucus conference held at SUNY
Purchase last weekend.

According to SASU Com-
munications Director Adine
Schuman, the conference was at-
tended by about 40 men and

who participating in ‘‘lots of lear-
ning and empowering through
discussions.’’

Among the activities offered at
the conference were workshops,
films and presentations by such
women as Gaye Williams, Vice
Chair of the National Political
Congress of Black Women, and
Assembly members Gloria Davis
and Aurelia Davis.

fall, ‘‘to address women’s
issues,” said Schuman, who add-

went “‘really well.”

SUNYA student Laura Lunt was
elected the new women’s caucus
chair.

Lunt said that she is really ex-
cited about her position and that
her experience as women’s caucus
delegate last year will enable her
to put together a very good year.

Topics on Lunt’s agenda for

Prejudice towards homosexuals
continues through college years

By'Chery! A. Bellus
Did you know that the lowest estimated percentage
of homosexuality in the population is 10 percent,
meaning that there are at least 1600 gay and lesbian
students here at'SUNYA? Although college ideally
provides us the opportunity to fully explore both
professional and personal options in a climate of
acceptance and tolerance, homosexuals remain sub-
ject to prejudices and misconcep- .
tions, despite efforts to promote Middle
awareness and information.

Sexuality, because it directly af- Earth
fects us all, is an emotional issue
for some students to discuss. As a Roots
student, you may enter college with many questions
and feelings as you develop your own identity, sex-
ual and otherwise. You may experience confused or
strong feelings about homosexuality, regardless of
your orientation. If you are straight, you may feel
threatened, curious, afraid or accepting. If you are
gay, you may experience all the same emotions, but
often for different reasons.

Before you can determine your attitudes about
homosexuality, it’s crucial to have a realistic
understanding of the facts. Firstly, scientific
evidence confirms that homosexual behavior and
attraction exists in all animals and is a natural varia-
tion of sexuality. Secondly, sexuality is best con-
sidered ranging on a continuum, with exclusive
heterosexuality and exclusive homosexuality on op-
posite ends. Since many of us at some time experi-
ment with our sexuality with same sex peers, most
of us lie somewhere between the two extremes.

Homosexuality does not refer solely to a person’s
sexual preference. Gays experience affectional as
well as sexual attraction for persons of the same
sex. Many people wonder what causes homosex-
uality. Because few.of us ever ask what causes
homosexuality, the implicit judgment is that
homosexuality is unnatural. This is a learned at-
titude, however, and does not reflect the reality of
homosexuality as a function of natural sexual varia-

tion. Homosexuality is a preference for a particular
life style, not a disease.

Some people experience what is called
homophobia. Homophobia is an irrational fear of
homosexuals. This fear may well involve a question
of your own sexual identity, and your feelings of
uncertainty about that.

: Homophobia is expressed in many ways. Gay
Jokes are not only offensive, but. also reinforce
negative stereotypical characteristics of homosex-
uals as well. Yet the most persistent, subtle and
powerful form of homophobia is the assumption
that everyone we meet is straight. This assumption
is called heterosexism, and is one form of social

-control used to keep gays and lesbians invisible.

It can be very difficult for gays and lesbians to
come out given these attitudes. Afterall most gays
are raised in heterosexual households and socialized
with the same strict heterosexual orientation as
everyone else.

For gays and lesbians who do come out, there are
both negative and positive aspects. Presently, only
Wisconsin has a statewide civil rights bill. And
although New York City recently passed its own
bill, gays in Albany have no legal rights. If you are a
gay man or lesiban, you can be prevented from ren-
ting a one bedroom apartment with your lover, as
well as you risk losing your job solely because of
your sexual orientation. On the other hand, you
may find a tremendous network within the com-
munity and a sense of relief in being honest with
yourself, and others, although you may risk rejec-
tion from those who won’t.accept this aspect of
your life. But because this introsepction can lead to
increased self-awareness and self acceptance, com-
ing out can be a very positive experience.

A crucial key to understanding ourselves and
others, is to recognize that we all experience many
of the same feelings. At some point, each one of use
may be happy, pressured, silly, tired, or in love. We
all need to have the right to live with integrity and
respect, for ourselves and others,

Two new campus pro-life groups
seek to promote abortion options

By Mary Morrisroe
STAFF WRITER

Presenting an alternative view
of the abortion issue, two new
pro-life organizations have
emerged on campus this semester.

Although Women Exploited By
Abortion (WEBA) and Students
Concerned for Human Life both
oppose abortion and intend to in-
form and educate students about
the nature of abortion, there are
differences between the two.

WEBA, a nationwide counsell-
ing group originally started on
campus by SUNYA student
Rebecca Stanley and seeks to
educate, counsel, and support its
members, according to Stanley.

“Once an individual decision to
have an abortion has been
made,” said Stanley, ““WEBA, as
a Christian organization, seeks to
help women pick-up the pieces of
their lives.””

Stanley said that our society
views abortion as ‘“‘the best way
out of a crisis pregnancy.”’
Women seeking abortions are
very often not properly informed
of the procedure, she added, and
therefore suffer from subsequent
physical complications.

Also formed this semester,
Students Concerned with Human
Life plans to “‘educate students
with regard to pro-life,’’ said co-
founder Sharon Long.

“Right to life encompasses
more than just abortion,” said
Long, who added that her group
plans to also address such issues
as right-to-die and euthanasia.

Long said that Students Con-
cerned with Human Life ‘‘cannot
convince anybody not to have an
abortion, but we can show them
the alternatives and why they
might want to consider going full-
term.”’

“There is a strong pro-abortion
bias on this campus,” said Long,
who added that pregnant students
know how to get an abortion, but
are unaware of aids for carrying
pregnancy to term such as pre-
natal care, and medicaid,

While Long stressed that
Students Concerned for Human
Life is.a‘‘‘secular”’ group, Stanley
said that. WEBA is based on

Housing

<4

ment” and in the future ‘‘open-
release from the housing contract
will be more difficult than it had
been in previous years,’’ Martone
said.

“‘More people at SUNY
Albany want to live on campus
than at other schools,’’ Martone
said. The housing crunch in the
Albany area also makes on-
campus housing a very appealing
alternative for continuing
students, he said.

“4t’s not ideal, but it’s not
bad,”” Martone said. ‘Even
parents of students in increased
suites responded positively. In
fact, I had three sets of students
ask me if they could sign up for
increased suites,”’ he said.

The new Fuller Road dorm,
which Martone said will be com-
pleted by Fall 1987, will provide
some relief to the housing situa-
tion by supplying the campus with
400 extra beds.’ Martone said,
however, that the new dorm will
be an apartment-type facility
geared toward upperclassmen
who would normally move off-
campus. o

Rebecca Stanley
Christianity because ‘‘only God
can heal a woman.”

Women involved in WEBA
who have experienced abortion
“never completely heal,” said
Stanley, ‘‘but as active members
find the support to go on with
their lives.”

“The last thing we want to
do,”’ said Stanley, “‘is traumatize
people. We want to provide a
form of expression. As women we
are strong enough to go on even
after a [terminated] pregnancy.’’

On campus, WEBA seeks to in-
form students of the severity of
abortion and its alternatives.
These alternatives, said Stanley,
include financial help for women

involved in crisis pregnancies who
wish to keep their babies as well
as support for those women who
choose to give up their children
for adoption.

As a group, WEBA wants
women to realize that they are
strong enough to deal with
unplanned pregnancies without
resorting to abortion, she added.

Long said that Students Con-
cerned for Students Life will work
to ‘‘change the image of pro-life
as being a right-wing organiza-
tion. It’s okay to be a liberal and
a feminist and believe abortion is
a tragedy and a sad reflection on
our society.’”

To promote her group’s objec-
tives, Long said that she plans to
‘‘plug into community
resources.”” Long works for Bir-
thright, a group which helps
women to go full-term with their
pregnancy.

Long said that next semester
she would like to sponsor a debate
between the pro-life and pro-
choice standpoints, an improve-
ment of pre-natal care at the
SUNYA infirmary, and a series of
lectures and forums. Qa

NEWS UPDATES

Tax refunds seized

The New York State Higher Education Services
Corporation (NYHESC) has received nearly $3
million from the Internal Revenue Service and the
New York State Tax and Finance Department in the
form of 1985 tax refunds from guaranteed student
loan defaulters, according to a NYHESC press
release.

New York State began a “‘tax refund default off-
set program”’ in 1982 that has been combined with
the federal program that was made possible through
the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984, according to the
release.

“The amounts recovered indicate these programs
are proving to be highly effective collection tools,”’
said NYHESC President Dr. Dolores E. Cross.

Last October, NYHESC notified 55,000 bor-
rowers that their tax refunds would be reduced
unless they began repayment and 2,725 debtors
responded, providing NYHESC with $723,000 in
repayments.

Frat goes commercial

Hoping to break into the growing greek scene at
SUNYA, the brothers of Sigma Epsilon Pi have
scheduled a television commercial to advertise their
first party, said Ira Lustbader the rush chairman.

“It’s an eye catching idea,’”’ said Lustbader,
describing the 30-second spot scheduled to appear
Wednesday night after David Letterman’s
monologue. The commercial features a “‘rap’’ per-
formed by the brothers to advertise for their “free
drink, food, and transport’’ party at Bicycle An-
nie’s in Colonie.

U.S. jets strike

“It’s (the commercial) part of our just going all
cout. We want to make our presence known,”’ said
Lustbader. The $60 commercial was made by the
fraternity and they got the idea from Student
Association Presidential Candidate Mark River’s
campaign commercial.

Gardens to be leased

The Capital District Community Gardens Inc. is
renting garden plots (20’x30’) for the summer
season, according to Maria Trabka, the executive
director of Community Gardens, and while “‘some
sites are full already,”’ there are plenty of fertile
plots that are available for leasing.

Plots cost $14 to rent from April through Oc-
tober, said Trabka, adding that water, tools, and
manure are provided free of charge at some plots.
In addition, tilling, gardening classes and
harvesting advice are available.

Essay contest planned

SUNYA’s history department will be accepting
essays for a contest to celebrate Albany’s tri-
centennial celebration, according to a press release
from the tri-centennial committee.

A committee of local historians will choose a win-
ning essay and the author will receive a $200 cash
prize.

The essay cannot be longer than 20 pages in
length and it must be properly footnoted with
bibliography. The essay may be written on any
aspect of Albany’s history.

The deadline for the essay is September 15, ac-
cording to the press release.

shaved 2,800 miles off their
flight, Weinberger said. The Air
Force bombers were dispatched
from three U.S. bases in England
with the permission of the British
government, Weinberger added.

The Air Force jets were met off
the Libyan coastline by A-6 and
A-7 attack jets launched by the
aircraft carriers Coral Sea and
America, he continued. The Air
Force and Navy strike planes were
protected overhead by Navy jet
fighters launched from the
carriers.

Weinberger said the targets at-
tacked had included:

»The Al Azziziyah barracks in
Tripoli. This was described as
“the main headquarters of Li-
byan planning and direction of its
terrorist attacks overseas.”’

» The Sidi Bilal port facility. This
was decribed as ‘‘a training base
for Libyan commandos.’’

»The military side of the Tripoli
airport. After this area was at-
tacked, Weinberger said all the
lights at the facility went out. The

Pentagon said that sections of the
airport is used by Soviet-made
aircraft ‘‘to. transport military
and subversive material around
the world.”

The Al Jumahiriya barracks in
Benghazi. This was described as
“fan alternate command post to
the Al Azziziyah barracks.’’
The Benina military airfield.
The Pentagon said this target was
hit for ‘‘militray suppression pur-
poses”’ to ensure no efforts were
made by the Libyans to attack
American planes. The Pentagon
also described this airfield as “‘the
home base for military and
subversive material in the war
against Chad.”’

According to the Pentagon, the
first three sites are located around
Tripoli, and the latter two are
located on the other side of the
Gulf of Sidra near Benghazi.

Weinberger indicated the Air
Force F-111s had been assigned to
hit the targets around Tripoli,
while the Navy attack jets concen-
trated on Benghazi.

Palo Alto, CA.
COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE — Are

““ntellectual”’ than men?

of Stanford students.
According to the survey,

Herant Katchadourian, who con-

Stanford students were asked
to fill out a questionnaire on their
course plans and their attitudes
about what they are studying.

Depending on their answers,
students were classified as

While ‘‘careerist’’ men tend to
ignore liberal arts courses,

interest in careers.

“I am not surprised by the
Stanford findings,” said Barbara

“I would expect more women

they were more concerned about
community welfare and develop-
ing a general philosophy of life.

She found out by administering
to Hood students the same survey
given by the American Council on
Education to some 200,000
freshmen nationwide. On a na-
tional scale, the ACE survey —
created by UCLA and released in
January — found beginning col-
lege frosh are more materialistic
than their predecessors.

The Stanford survey defined
“‘strivers” as strongly motivated
toward careers and intellectual
pursuits. They tend to come from
lower economic backgrounds
than other students.

“‘Unconnected’’ students

While Stanford students chang-
ed categories throughout the
four-year period they were
observed, radical changes were
rare, Katchadourian said.

While a ‘“‘striver’? might
become an “‘intellectual,”’ or a
“‘careerist’’ could become a
“‘striver,’’ rarely would an
‘intellectual’? become a
“‘careerist”” or vice versa.

Moreover, it was uncommon
for ‘‘strivers’’ to become ‘‘uncon-
nected,”” Katchadourian said.

While Hood students changed
their attitudes, Hetrick speculated
they might be predisposed toward
more humanistic values than
students at large state universities.

Ashley: one of the Mebite Chicks

this interview would go well. At that

point in time, everything else was
signaling doom: forgotten appointments,
mixed times, unwilling stars. Oh, someone
was picking up the phone. The deep,
raspy, nicotine-tainted yet unmistakably
sleepy voice of Elizabeth Ashley greeted
me.

Shirley Davis

“Hello?”

“Hello, uh, I'm supposed to interview
you for the Albany Student Press.”

“Well, can you call back in a few
minutes 7”

“Sure, no problem.”

Great, I woke her. This interview is star-
ting to proceed smoothly, right? But at
least, a 15 minute reprieve. Another few
minutes to formulate more questions.
Time's up.

“Hello, I called before.” A rush of words
sprang staccato from the well-known
actress.

“Hi. Sorry, I was asleep when you called
before but we have been doing two shows
a day and I've had no days off or anything
so I had elected to sleep today and there
Was a mix up in the communication about
who was to talk to who when and h’ya
doing?”

Elizabeth Ashley is currently perform-
ing as Hannah Mae Bindler on a multi-city
tour of the critically acclaimed A Coupla
White Chicks Sitting Around Talking
with Sandy Dennis, written by John
Noonan and directed by Dorothy Lyman
(formerly Opal Gardner on All My
Children), which will be seen at Proctors,
April 15 — 17.

Ashley, replacing Susan Anton, was able
to join the travelling show of A Coupla
White Chicks due to a break in her
schedule. Doing the play has been an ambi-
tion of hers ever since it was done in an
Off-Off Broadway workshop “and I
could never get it together with my
schedule, their schedule,” says Ashley.
“And then last year, I opened in New Little
Theater in Los Angeles with it and it was
very successful. And so we decided to take
it on the road.”

With visions of many tempermental
Broadway stars never acquiescing to stepp-
ing off the Great White Way, I inquired
whether it was unusual to go on the road.
Ashley rapidly dispelled any notions of
spoiled, undisciplined actresses, saying,
“That's a rather precious ethic which for
years I have been fighting because the
theater is supposed to be on the road and I
prefer to be on the road than on Broadway
because you're in a town for a week, 2
weeks, 3 weeks, and you're gone to the
next town and I'm nomadic by nature and
also because I like the audiences. I think
they’re real audiences. | just like the road. I
almost never feel uncomfortable in any
place in America, so I'm kind of at home,
whenever I'm on it.”

After commenting on the ease with
which she seems to embrace the discom-
forts of traveling and not the star's dressing
room, she says, “That's one of the reasons I
travel so much — you know on depots and
outposts and bordertowns, | always find a
lot of other people like me.” They're not all
in show business, says Ashley. “Some drive
trucks or sail boats or sell fruit on wharfs. I
think the deep danger, the coffin for artists
of any kind to find themselves in is to get
so insulated and isolated from the world
that they live in and they get involved
where their world revolves around show
business and that to me is the almost im-
mediate death of an artist.”

Working and living in a world where
your worth stems from your awards, your
status from your possessions, Elizabeth
Ashley seems to fight all the stereotypes.
In her blunt, outspoken autobiography,
Actress: Postcards from the Road, she
acknowledges, “I know in my soul. the
most important thing for me is to remain
always an outlaw — emotionally, mental-

I dialed the phone nervously, hoping

ly, spiritually, and legally — and to keep
close touch with the traffic that exists
beneath respectable, conventional society.”

Now in the conformist ‘80's, Ashley
says, “There's nothing more revisionist
than history, trying to be an artist in the
‘60's is what it’s about. But I suppose | am
still a spiritual outlaw.” In a statement that
rings no truer than if said in Albany, New
York, or California, where being like
everyone else is the name of the game,
“I'm an iconoclast. Basically, bottom line is
Tm a loner and that always in this culture
makes one suspect.”

Elizabeth Ashley first came to the public
attention with her Tony Award-winning
performance in Take Her, She’s Mine, and
later gathering nominations for Barefoot in
the Park, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, and
recently, Agnes of God. She is on the
Board of Directors of the American Film
Institute and on the President's Committee
for the Kennedy Center Lifetime Achieve-
ment Awards. She is a multi-faceted actress
who glides easily from one medium to the
other, appearing in films such as The
Carpetbaggers, Paternity, 92 in the Shade,
and many spots on the Tonight Show and
Saturday Night Live.

Throughout her career, the constant

, Press surrounding Ashley. has alternately

labelled her a maverick, a renegade.
Ashley claims she no longer lives life in the
fast lane. “I think there's a time in one’s life
when it’s becoming to do that and then one
grows fast out of it and lives other ways. If
you are still living at 40 the way you were
living at 20, then there is something ter-
ribly wrong with you.” In later years, says
Ashley, “You either need stimulation or
solitude, or the mind shrinks.”

Ashley, in need of either stimulation or
solitude, escapes to her home in the Carrib-
bean, knowing the importance “that there
is a place out of civilization that I can go
to.” She shares her home with 18-year-old

son, Christian, the product of her marriage
to ex-husband George Peppard, also an ac-
tor. Ashley enjoys an unusually close rela-
tionship with her son, with whom she is
“constantly hanging out.”

“like him. I'd rather hang, out with 17
or 18-year-olds than almost anyone else.
They make more sense. They're smarter
and wiser. They haven't been twisted
around by culture yet.” The Ashley house
has been known to resemble a gypsy camp
on occasion, “There's no sit down six
o'clock dinner, but ‘who's got the best
number for pizza?’ ”

With the glut of teen movies and scarci-
ty of good material for mature actresses,
she discussed her concern with finding
worthwhile scripts or plays. “It’s true of
everything — there's not much stuff
around to do — so you're always between
a rock and a hard place. You got to earn a
living and then on the other hand, you
have to maintain some dignity, which can
be very difficult.”

Ashley may consider doing a TV series
in the future, but now, she says, “I would
like to be in California for a period of time
for when my son goes to college. He wants
me to be there for weekends and vacations
and all of that, and I would probably like
to do that because he’s probably the last
man who I will live with, you know, for
any lengthy period of time.”

While everybody wants a place in the
sun, Ashley has found herself on Broad-
way in recent years. Ashley states, “The
best theater is off-Broadway. Just
remember, the most prolific playwright
next to Neil Simon is Sam Shepard. But
he’s never allowed one of his plays to be
done on Broadway. So that should tell you
something. He has never sought the
mainstream.”

Ashley is not interested in producing. “I
tried to produce something one time and I

saw how committees do things and I said I
would never produce anything again as
long as I lived.” In an age of dressing for
success, eating to win, and climbing the
corporate ladder, Elizabeth Ashley wants
no part of it and says what almost amounts
to treason: “I do not have a drop of mogul
in me. I'm not interested in power. And to
take meetings, make deals, do lunches is
anathema to me. I'm a vagrant gypsy
traveling through — give me the bus
ticket, tell me where to go, what my lines
are, where my marks are — I'll hit them, Il
say them, and that’s it.”

She writes in her book Actress, “Art isn’t
something you do or are. It's where you
aim, the target you shoot at. Because
drama is made up of what people most fear
and deny in themselves. The taboos. The
secrets. The devils and the demons. The
only reason they let us live, I suppose, is
because somebody has to confront what
those things are like and tell other people
about them. I think my life has really been
just a search for my turf, my place. Well,
I've found mine. I'm able to be a good per-
son on stage. I'm able to do it right.”

Elizabeth Ashley, outlaw, concerned
mother, dedicated actress, has put her act
together and taken it on the road to where
you can find her with another white chick
just sitting around talking and loving it.

Aspects on Tuesday 13

Insanity Williams’

ne of America’s funniest fun-
O nymen, Robin Williams, is coming

to town — or close to it. Williams
will appear at the RPI Fieldhouse for a one-
night-only performance on Tuesday, April
22, in what promises to be a night of
outrageous entertainment.

Evelyn Snitofsky

For those who best know Williams as his
improvisational alien character Mork of
the now syndicated T.V. show Mork and
Mindy, Williams has gone far beyond sit-
ting on his head, talking to eggs, and drink-
ing with his finger. His most recent credits
to date are impressive and numerous. They
include his Grammy Award winning Com-
edy Album of the Year entitled Reali-
ty... What a Concept, and his critically
acclaimed performances in the films
Popeye (1980), The World According to
Garp (1982), and Moscow on the Hudson
(1984).

Detroit home, where, as a child, Williams
spent most of his time inventing and
creating voices for his 2000 battling toy
soldiers. When he emerged from the base-
ment, he occupied himself by tape-
recording and impersonating the comedy-
routines of television comedians of the
day, particularly Jonathon Winters,
Williams’ idol.

Williams began his college education as
a political science major at Claremont
Men’s College, but that was short-lived.
The theatre department at Claremont
sidetracked Williams and led to a change of
plans — studying Shakespeare at Marin
College.

But New York beckoned. Williams won
a full scholarship to the prestigious Julliard,
where he trained under John Houseman
for three years. Outside of the classroom,
he could be found on the step of the
Metropolitan Museum of Art, entertaining
passerbys with improvisational comedy.

SS

For those who best know Williams as his im-
provisational alien character Mork . .. Williams has
gone far beyond sitting on his head, talking to eggs,

and drinking with his finger.

Williams recently starred in The Best of
Times, a not-so-successful comedy, and in
the soon to be released Club Paradise.
Also, to his credit as a humanitarian, he just
performed in, hosted and coordinated
(along with Billy Crystal and Whoopi
Goldberg) Comic Relief, a three hour live
HBO special performance to raise money
for the homeless in America.

It's hard to believe, but all this talent
arose out of the basement of a 1950's

“Legalized insanity” is what Williams
calls his brand of stand-up comedy routine,
which he created and developed in a string
of San Francisco night clubs. From San
Francisco he took his insanity to Los
Angeles in 1979, where he was
“discovered” and made a regular on the
Laugh-In revival. There he was spotted for
the part of an alien character, Mork, who
was to guest star on the popular series,
Happy Days. His ad-lib performance in-

spired T.V. executives to give
own series. The rest is history

Williams has already landed on the
covers of Time, Newsweek, Rolling Stone,
People, and TV Guide, and his name was a
household word when he was just 26.
“Robin,” wrote Time, “is not so much
lucky as talented.” Apparently Robin
Williams knew exactly what he was doing

style at RPI

ee:

when, back in high school, he prompted
his classmates to seriously vote him “Fun-
niest” and, ironically, “Least Likely To
Succeed.”

Don’t miss Robin Williams on Tuesday,
April 22, 7:30 p.m. at the RPI Fieldhouse.
Tickets are available at the Fieldhouse,
Ticketron, and Records ‘N’ Such. For more.

An unbearable Cave bore

he Clan of the Cave Bear, a motion
i picture adaptation of Jean M.

Auel’s best-selling novel, seems as
crude and primative as the Neanderthal
tribe it is centered around. More crude, ac-
tually, since the Neanderthal makeup used
here isn’t very good.

John Keenan

‘The story centers around a Cro Magnon
girl named Ayla, who is adopted by a tribe
of Neanderthals. Naturally, there are pro-
blems, but unfortunately, most of them
seem to be taking place off-screen —- like
in the script and the editing room.

Director Michael Chapman uses
beautiful scenery as a backdrop to the tale,
as Ayla gradually, grows from a young girl
into Daryl Hannah, a liberated woman of
prehistory, who has trouble accepting the
servile role of a Neanderthal woman. This
brings her into direct conflict with the
chief's son, Broud (Thomas Waites), a more
traditional.man who hopes to be the leader
of the clan someday, and tries to show his
fitness for it by using the more-evolved
‘Ayla as a punching bag.

Aiding Ayla in her fight for Neanderthal
acceptance is Creb, the scorcerous Mog-ur
(James Remar), who commands the spirits,
speaks to the gods, and can count to five.
Remar’s portrayal of this prodigy is one of
the high points of a low film, and the
make-up used to make Remar's face appear
clawed and scarred (credited to Michael
Burke) was also a cut above the general
caliber of the film.

Cave Bear-'reaches it's nadir midway
through, when Broud rapes Ayla. The
scene, no doubt intended to be shocking
and horrible, comes across as embarassing
and crude. Sayles’ intention seems to have
been to shoot a rape scene that Bugs Bunny
could have starred in, if Bugs did rape
scenes. He doesn’t, but the combination of

=

Ayla (Daryl Hannah) with Creb (James Remar) in Clan of the Cave Bear.

a horrible act with some horrible acting
captures that old Loony Tune flavor
precisely. With this scene, the film goes
from being merely boring and stupid to be-
ing boring, tasteless, and stupid — a
distinction it hardly needs.

A running narration, used whenever the
filmmakers are afraid you might miss
something obvious (“Ayla had found the
cave. She would be allowed to stay with
the Clan.”) fluctuates between being at best
unnecessary and at worst annoying. The
unfortunate liability of creating Neander-
thals who don’t speak English justifies the

narrator to some extent, but that doesn’t
make her any less annoying to listen to.
The Neanderthal sign language, created by
Lou Fant, is relativaly easy to pick up,
which makes it that much less intriguing.

‘As the film plods on, Ayla learns to
hunt, has a son, and faces down a cave bear
prior to her climactic battle with Broud.
Although Sayles’ adaptation follows Auel's
novel closely, compacting a 300-page
novel into a 90-minute film calls for some
skillful paraphrasing and some editing.
Sayles seems to have employed neither
method.

Ayla’s climactic battle with Broud is the
final cheat. Waites’ Broud is essentially a
scruffy villain to begin with, and the ease
with which our heroine at last overcomes
him confirms the suspicion that this is a
Neanderthal wimp. The Saturday Night
Wrestling-like encounter effectively
neutralizes the possibilty of any real emo-
tional payoff, which is almost a blessing.
It’s much more fun to remember how bad
Clan of the Cave Bear was than it was to
actually see it.

ASP rating: ie

Promises,
promises

People make promises to each other almost
every day of their lives. That’s the easy part.

Keeping promises on the other hand, is a
different story. Promises are often made with
good intentions, but somehow they end up
getting broken. Politicians are the most
blatant offenders; election campaigns seem
to bring out the worst in even the sincerest of
candidates.

If everything President Reagan promised
us came true, we’d probably rename the
country after him. We’d have a balanced
budget, no inflation, and a military so strong
that no country would dare antagonize us.
Unfortunately, things seldom work that way,
either in Washington or at SUNY Albany.

Last year’s candidates for Student
Association president and vice president
made a few promises of their own. Some
were kept and others were broken for various
reasons.

SA President Steve Gawley did an
admirable job sticking to most of his
promises. Gawley wanted to create an
information network among the students to
help foster activism. To accomplish this, he
organized the Student Advocacy and Rights
Coalition. But SARC never approached the
level of that participation Gawley described;
his plans for monthly meetings of all SA
group leaders never materialized.

He sought to resolve the Grouper Law
situation by improving SUNYA students’
image within the community. The law may
yet be declared unconstitutional. No matter
what the final decison is, Gawley’s efforts
have not been lost on Mayor Whalen, who
probably has a new found respect for SA.

Although Gawley and his entire
administration have slacked off this
semester, overall, he’s accomplished most of
the projects he said he would this year. The
same, however, cannot be said for SA Vice
President Ross Abelow.

Abelow’s biggest plan for this year was his
“SUNY weekend,”’ where students from all
over the SUNY system would come to
Albany for ‘‘one incredible weekend.”
Another unsuccessful proposal was his
Student Assistance Committee, which was
supposed to provide students a forum to
voice their complaints about campus life. If
the committee exists at all, it would be a
surprise to us; we’ve never heard anything
about it.

As vice president, Abelow was supposed to
work closely with the Programming Director
and the Media Director. But Abelow wasn’t
around enough to accomplish his own
projects, let alone fulfill his duties by
assisting others.

This year’s candidates for office have
made their share of promises, some of which
already seem doomed to failure.
Nevertheless, the election winners should try
to keep the promises they made.

If Paco Duarte wins, let’s see the Tenants’
Association he’s proposed for next year to
fight self sufficiency. If Mark Rivers is
elected, let’s see some of his Community
Involvement Programs initiated to improve
the student image in the community..If Tihan
Presbie is elected, let’s see the Harlem
Globetrotters in University Gym. If Doug
Tuttle wins, ‘let’s have a carnival in the fall
that will rival Mayfest in popularity. If Irwin
Weinstein is elected, let’s see a publicity
director act as a consultant to SA groups.

Too many times, a new president or vice
president will get caught up in his or her new
surroundings, and forget some of the
promises made during election campaigns.
We hope this year’s winners won’t make that
mistake.

End political group funding

A growing number of students on this campus and
others across the state are becoming aware of the issue of
funding for groups such as (New York Public Interest
Research Group) NYPIRG via the mandatory student ac-
tivity fee. I would like to make one point very clear at the
outset: I have no objection to NYPIRG, or any other
group possessing an ideological orientation, existing on
campus. What I object to, and what this university’s
policy is with the unexplained exceptions of NYPIRG
among others, is the use of money from a mandatory stu-
dent activity fee to fund the exposition of political posi-
tions of opinions.

David Steinberg

As a number of you may be aware, there are a number
of organizations which are either primarily political or
take positions on political issues relevant to their
organizations. Groups such as the College Republicans,
Young Democrats, Young Amercians for Freedom, and
Americans for Democratic Action, are all political
organizations on campus. Because they are explicitly
political, these groups receive no funding. When groups
such as ASUBA or JSC-Hillel engage in political - as op-
posed to educational or social-activities, those political
activities receive no funding. As was stated in a recent
story in the ASP, SUNY’s policy on student activity fee
allocation is that the money may only go towards educa-
tion, social, cultural, or athletic groups, or activities of a
nature that is educational, social, cultural, or athletic.
Neither political activities nor political groups may
receive funding of any nature.

With that last fact established, we ask another ques-
tion: What is a political group? From a number of
sources and common sense, I was able to determine that a
political group is one which depends on some form of
politically oriented activity for its existence, with a state-
ment of its issues and a means within the political system
to attempt to bring into effect its particular orientation as
part of the mainstream of the political system. In the case
of any political organization, the issues are stated in a
platform, and the attempt to bring the platform into be-
ing for the entire system is lobbying. If a political group
does not possess either a platform or the means to lobby,
the group ceases to function.

With the nature of a political organization established,
we ask: Is NYPIRG political? For this answer, we can go
to two opinions: that of observers outside of NYPIRG
and NYPIRG itself. As virtually every political group on
this campus will testify, NYPIRG is political. NYPIRG
has defended itself by stating that it is an educational
group engaged in political activity. However, on
NYPIRG’s own project list, it is stated that ‘‘political
reform, social justice, and shaping public policy”’ are
among NYPIRG’s principal concerns. This admission,
together with the fact that NYPIRG possesses both a plat-
form and a lobbying license, clearly indicates that
NYPIRG is a political organization as previously defined.

Since the controversy has arisen from the case of Galda
vs. Blaustein and the Third Circuit Courts opinion in the
case, I think it appropriate to include the relevant vor-

tions of the court’s opinion.

“Question: whether a State University may compel
students to pay a specified sum... to an independent out-
side organization that espouses and actively promotes a
political and ideological philosophy which they oppose
and do not wish to support.””

At trial, plaintiffs presented evidence that PIRG, in at
least some, if not a majority of its activities is an entity
devoted to political and ideological objectives. Defen-
dants (NJPIRG) do not dispute that fact, but instead
focused on the educational benefits associated with par-
ticipants in the PIRG program... these include observing
government agencies in action, public speaking, research,
leadership development, and other factors which may be
obtained from the “‘hands-on”’ training common to any
large organization and particularly one that has some
contacts with government.

“The educational advantages described in the
testimony do not differ from those that might be obtained
by working with, or for, an independent organization
such as the Republican or Democratic Party, or a clearly
religious group which has undertaken an active and
vigorous proselytizing program... the educational com-
ponent that the Univeristy presents here as justification
would be precisely the same were the recipient group one
that clearly could not receive affirmative state support.’’

“Tt must be recognized that because the plaintiffs are
opposed to PIRG’s ideological aims, the educational
benefits flowing from PIRG activities will not be
available to them. Their beliefs exclude them from access
to the programs that offer the educational opportunities.
Despite that bar to participation, plaintiffs must never-
theless pay to support the organization.”

“The objection to funding an outside entity through
the neutral funding procedure is that the result achieved is
not neutral and does not preserve equal access. The pro-
cess offers an opportunity for a majoritorian group to
compel support from minorities in circumstances where
no compelling state interest justifies the limitation on
First Amendment rights.’’ (Public, 772
F.2D,1050.-1066.)

It does not matter that NYPIRG holds a bi-annual
referendum among the students to determine that their
funding is ‘‘fair’’. It does not matter that NYPIRG does
important work. The only thing that matters in this case,
and the only issue which other political groups have in
dispute with NYPIRG, is that it is receiving funding from
people who do not agree with its politics. NYPIRG is not
a government. It should not rightfully possess the power
to raise revenues from the whole of the student popula-
tion. That power belongs exclusively to the one political
group funded by all students-the student government.
That a political body besides our student government
receives monies from all students violates the right of
association guaranteed by the First Amendment of the
constitution. When NYPIRG ceases to violate this con-
stitutional guarantee, they will then have every right and
firm support to stay on campu

Sounding off

To the editor:

I attended the 7:30 p.m. showing of White Nights on
April 5. We were asked to wait for a full hour while the
UC staff attempted to rectify the problems with the sound
system. A petition was started, with 70 signatures col-
lected, and this resulted in the purchase of new projectors
for the University Cinemas. However, the problem Satur-
day night did not even involve the projectors, rather it
was due to a failure in the sound system that was so bad
that the equiptment from another LC had to be used.

I think that the purchase of new sound equiptment is
warranted, and though I’m glad that SA has finally
realized the need for new projectors, I’m worried that
next year we’ll have a fantastic picture with no sound. I
have been to many showings at the UCs, and I’ve never
seen the theateres less than three quarters full, so I think
any expenditures on this group would be well recieved,
and well warranted. The UC is a valuable and well-
attended activity on campus, and I feel it is time that SA
recognized it as such.

Fruits of labor

To the editor:

I would like to respond to Mr. Gewirtz’ response on
April 8th to my letter to the editor. Unfortunately, Mr.
Gewirtz makes countless illogical assumptions and a
multitude of unfounded accusations based on guilt and
paranoia.

Mr. Gewirtz equates my examples of jobs - UAS, work-
study, positions with private employers and positions
with the New York State Legislature, with menial labor
(his own term, revealing his own values). He argues that
these jobs would equally aid a student’s maturing process
in the same way as volunteer jobs or “‘other endeavors.” I
never differentiated between jobs which are performed
voluntarily and positions which earn a salary. I simply

stated that working, while attending school, earns many
benefits for a person. I separated working and ‘gossiping
at the Lampost or shopping at Crossgates.”’ If this is what
Mr. Gewirtz considers ‘‘other endeavors,” I strongly
stand by my statement in its true context.

Mr. Gewirtz goes on to say that I hold ‘‘a lot of resent-
ment against affluent students’’ and also states the fact
that ‘‘the good fortunes of those students with new cars is
obviously not their own doing and [they have had] good
luck.’ Apparently, Mr. Gewirtz does not come into con-
tact with the ‘‘Benneton Boomers’’ on this campus, or he
is too close to them and therefore does not realize that

many of them do congratulate themselves for their~

parents’ hard efforts, not their own. I do not hold resent-
ment toward these types of people, but disgust.

Lastly, Mr. Gewirtz implies that there is nothing wrong
with liking yourself. I am in full agreement. Again, refer-
ring to the same type of people mentioned in the above
paragraph, these people not only love themselves, but
they believe the world centers around them. They do not
realize that other people exist in this world. In addition,
Mr. Gewirtz chooses to avoid refuting my statement that
these spoiled brats ‘‘love receiving gifts from their Dad-
dys’’ because they know no other way to gain rewards. I
guess his empty rhetoric cannot cast doubt on it.

P.S. Andy, people who are as bitter and tension-filled
as you say I am, don’t, “‘laugh heartidly” as your letter
acknowledged I have.

I would also like to sincerely apologize to Steve
Korowitz and the College Republican organization for
stating that they support the monitoring of professors.
Although the College Republicans do not, it is not always
easy to distinguish them from the other ‘‘real’’ moral
force on this campus, the Young Americans for Freedom.
Please forgive me for making an error in judgement con-
cerning that portion of the statement. Ronald Reagan,
your President, has to be forgiven for his errors at least
once a day.

Implied guilt

To the editor:

I attended the speech promoted as Who Killed Jesus?
sponsored by the Campus Crusade For Christ. The
speaker went into discussion of who killed Jesus, which
included the Romans, the Christians, and the Jews. The
speaker spent five minutes discussing the Romans, and
FIFTEEN minutes discussing the Jews. It was not directly
stated, but the murder was sublty blamed on the Jews.
The speaker said that the Jews actually did commit the
murder, but it was okay; since Jesus forgave them, saying
to G-d, “Forgive them, for they know not what they do.”
The use, by the lecturer, of that statement implies heavy
guilt on the part of the Jews. But, the speaker harped on
the topic of the Jews’ guilt for much more time than was
needed! I find it very offensive, and extremely biased, to
Say that the people of the Jewish religion, of which Jesus
was a member, committed his murder. I understand that
he was just stating his views to the University students in a
way that I felt was unjust and innappropriate. I disap-
prove of the way he conducted his speech, and I think
that it is exactly this type of conduct that has propagated
hatred of the Jews in the past and present.

Bench AMIA

To the edit

I am forced to write this letter in regard to one of the
most poorly run organizations on the SUNYA campus.
The organization I’m referring to is AMIA. While I can-
not pass judgement on how they handled the fall and
winter intramurals, I do know that AMIA is doing a hor-
rible job with the spring intramurals.

My disatisfaction with AMIA stems from a number of
instances which have occurred. The worst of these hap-
pened on Saturday, April 12th. My coed team reported to
the field at 11:15 for our game. The other team was there
on time also. The AMIA official, however, failed to show
up. After waiting over 30 minutes for him, I walked over
to an adjacent field to speak to co-commissioner Jimmy
Kwan. Of course, he denied any responsibility for the
matter and directed me to talk to the head of the officials
who was umpiring on another adjacent field. Upon con-
fronting the head official, he told me that the official for
our game had left and was not coming back. Of course
neither he nor the commissioner had bothered to tell that
to the two teams, who by now had been waiting over an
hour in the 40 degree weather.

My point is that if one of these two individuals had got-
ten off his ass and walked over to tell us that the game
was cancelled, we would have been disappointed but not
angry. However, these leaders of AMIA acted obnoxious-
ly and irresponsibly.

Another incidence which occurred was when I called
commissioner Kwan on Thursday to request a game we
were scheduled for on Sunday by changed or cancelled.
My whole team had an induction ceremony and could not
make the scheduled time. Not only wasn’t the game
changed, I have a strong suspicion that Mr. Kwan didn’t
try to change it. He certainly didn’t have the courtesy to
inform me that he couldn’t change it. And there was no
reason why he couldn’t have cancelled it. As a matter of

— Bruce Loren

fact, many teams games are changed (especially the ones
whose players are on the AMIA board).

Both of these instances show the “I don’t give a damn’’
attitude of the AMIA hierarchy. It doesn’t surprise me
that their equipment is being stolen. AMIA is doing an in-
ept job on all aspects of the spring intramurals.

Thank you AMIA for ruining the spring intramural
season and thank you Mr. Kwan for being totally un-
cooperative and unprofessional.

Thanks to Telethon

To the editor:

I am writing to thank a very special group of people for
making my senior year here at SUNYA one that I will
treasure forever. This group of people that I am referring
to is the Telethon °86 staff, and all of those who sup-
ported us in our efforts throughout this year. This
weekend marked the end of an entire year’s efforts to
reach out and help some of the many needy children in
the Albany area. For those of you who attended the
Telethon, I’m sure you left with the same overwhelming
feeling of pride in knowing that you helped these children
as I did.

For those of you who did not attend this event, I would
like to make a special request of you. Please find the time
when you return here next year to take some time to give a
little of yourselves and attend events like this one. Just
think of all of the things that you have done since you
began attending this university. Which ones do you think
will be treasured in your hearts and minds: the longest?
Believe me, they won’t be the tests that you studied for,
or the books tliat you have read. Those things that will be
treasured the most are the special things that you have
done. Telethon is one of those special organizations that
you will be rewarded over and over again for being in-
volved in. When you see the children that you are helping,
you get so much in return for all of the work that you
have done. If you want to get involved in something
special next year, please consider Telethon. Even if you
don’t have the time to work for Telethon, try to attend
its’ events, because you can still feel rewarded in knowing
that you are supporting a special cause.

I am so proud that I had the opportunity to be part of
such a loving and giving group of people, and I want to
thank everyone again for all of the memories that I have.
Saying goodbye to all of you has been one of the hardest
things I have ever had to do. I am truly going to miss each
and everyone of you - I Love you all! Thank you for all of
my special memories! “

Go out of your way

To the editor:

The other day, as I was walking around the podium en-
joying the sunshine, I was struck with an incredible sense
of thankfulness. You see, walking is one of the most
overlooked, taken for granted gifts we possess. For the
past ten months I have been on crutches and in various leg
casts due to an unfortunate accident.

Before my accident, I had been an active student who
thought nothing of running around all day, leading a hec-
tic life filled with meetings, appointments, and daily trips
to the gym. I had thought the facilities for the handicap-
ped students to be integrated into college life.

Once I was put in the position of having to depend on
others to open doors for me, carry my books for me and
carry my lunch trays for me, I realized how unaware I
really was. Until someone is put into a situation where
they are considered handicapped-even in the smallest
way, it is impossible to comprehend what its like to see
people constantly run past you, stand on lines, or stand
around podiating while you struggle to make it from
Humanities to Earth Science in the ten minutes between
classes. I felt shut out from a part of my life that I had
really taken for granted.

During this experience, there were times that I became
so frustrated that all I wanted to do was sit down and cry.
The two things that kept me going were that I knew my
condition was temporary, and that my friends, as well as
Strangers, went out of their way to help me. Even the
smallest gesture, opening a door for me, made my life
easier for that moment. As an independant person, there
were many times that I felt like a burden because I
couldn’t do for myself what I was used to doing.

T have been told that from every bad situation, some
good comes. My awareness has been increased greatly,
and I’d like to help increase awareness here on campus.
While there are many facilities here for handicapped
students, much more can be done. More accessible
elevator buttons, doors that are easier to open, and a van
are all necessary items. In the endless appeal for support
of causes, I will make yet another. It’s so easy to do
something nice for someone else - it takes very little effort
and really makes you feel better about yourself. When
each of you walk away from wherever you are sitting,
reading this article, please think about how lucky you
really are. Help Out -- Take an interest!

number of slots ‘‘we chose acts
that we felt would provide a varie-
ty to viewers,”’ said Lehrman.

Lehrman added that ‘‘Telethon
°86 is very special to me and I’m
sad it’s over for now. You do it
for the kids and that gives you a
good feeling inside.”

Steve Russo, a senior at
SUNYA, who performed at
Telethon said that ‘‘more people
should have shown up. It was
disappointing that there weren’t
too many people there at the end
with 5000 people on campus. Bet-

1985.

The protesters then entered the
Federal Building and, standing in
a circle holding hands, sang songs
and recited prayers.

A member of the group inform-
ed them that “‘those that would
like to risk arrest will stay, those
who don’t will file out in an
orderly manner when the building
closes.”?

The protesters who decided to
risk arrest proceeded to sit in a
circle and introduce themselves to
each other, explaining in turn why
they were there.

At approximately 6:05 p.m.,
the protesters inside the building
were arrested and all of. the pro-
testers standing outside the
building applauded.

Esther Willison, one of the pro-
testers who was arrested, said,
“T’ve never done this [chosen to
get arrested] before. My heart is

ween six and nine on a Saturday
night, what could they have been
doing?””

Murphy said ’’general atten-
dance was good in that we had
[some] people there for the whole
24 hours.

Murphy stressed that Telethon
*86 events take place throughout
the year.

“Telethon ’86 is a decieving
name because many people think
it’s only this weekend,” said Mur-
phy. “‘We run events throughout
the year like rock and roll war-
fare, the dance marathon, can-
dygrams and afternoon at the
bars, to name a few.””

“Telethon 87 is starting this
week and within the next three
weeks, the new co-chairs will be
accepting applications,” said
Murphy. Oo

beating fast, it’s not an easy
thing, but my friends are here
with me.”

Wardrop, a SUNYA graduate
student has been arrested for pro-
testing approximately five times.

“It makes me angry that I have
to do such drastic measures to
draw attention to U.S.-sponsored
genocide. It also makes me feel
great to know that people won’t
let laws that protect evil bind us,””
Wardrop said:

She added that the ‘‘protestors
were processed and charged with
disturbing the peace. We must ap-
pear in court’? in the middle of
May. We’ll either be jailed a max-
imum of 30 days or fined a max-
imum of $50,” she said.

DeMaria said that there will be
a continuous vigil beginning
Monday night and which will con-
tinue until the two proposals are
voted on.

Barnes and Noble

<Front Page

Barnes and-Noble was more ag-
gressive. They had a Fifth Avenue
mentality and are up on the cur-
rent trends in marketing,” said
Altman.

Follett “‘was too conservative,”’
said Eric Schwartzman, a student
member of the Board. “‘Barnes
and Nobles seemed more willing
to do business.””

Bookstore sales increased by 16
percent the first year Barnes and
Noble ran the university’s store,
said Schwartzman. While sales

have decreased over the years,
they are still higher than when
Follett ran the store, he said.

UAS originally sent out bids to
six bookstore chains to compete
for the contract. The four other
companies declined to bid, said
Zahm, who said he was unsure of
why.

A couple of the chains were too
small to compete, said Zahm.
“We wanted a [chain] that had
many years experience operating
a store our size. We did not want
to be a training ground,”’ he said.

Student loan defaulters barred
from receiving humanities grants

Washington, D.C.
COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE — Scholars, students and
artists who haven’t repaid their student loans on
time no longer will be able to get grants from the
National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH).

In an effort to help collect money on defaulted
student loans the NEH, which will award $132.7
million to scholars and artists this year, now will re-
quire all grant applicants to fill out a form stating
the status of any Guaranteed Student Loan money
they might have borrowed.

“Before we offer anyone more tax money, we
wish to be certain that all applicants are carrying
out their obligations to the citizens of America,”
said John Agresto, the NEH’s acting chairman.

The U.S. Department of Education estimated
defaults of student loans could exceed $1 billion by
the end of this year, and could go as high as $2
billion by the end of the decade.

The department, of course, has accelerated all its
collection efforts.

While Education Secretary William Bennett used
to head the NEH, the agency’s decision to grill ap-
plicants was its own, not the Education Depart-
ment’s, maintained NEH spokesman Darrel
deChaby.

No one knows how many deadbeats currently are
getting NEH funds, deChaby said, but he figures
that since a significant number of applicants spend
years in academe, many probably took out student

loans.

Although the policy goes into effect immediately,
it won’t apply to all NEH grant recipients for about
a year, deChaby said. The NEH will make only new
applicants disclose their loan status, he said.

The agency won’t ask current recipients about
their loans because it would be hard to get NEH
-money back, even from those who admitted being
in default.

NEH officials will confirm applicants’ claims
with the Education Department, and, if discrepan-
cies arise, the NEH will ask the Justice Department
to deal with defaulters.

The penalty for falsifying information to the
government could result in a fine of up to $10,000
and/or as much as five years in jail, NEH attorney
Hugh Hewitt warned. G

Divorce adversely affecting today’s students

n Gainesville, FL.

COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE — It’s 8 p.m. on
a Thursday evening, and Graham, an
engineering student at the University of
Florida, struggles to absorb even a page of
his book on Digital Communications
Systems.

The text is clear enough, but Graham’s
mind is 200 miles away — worrying about
his mother and how she will pay her bills,
wondering if his father will ever speak to
him again. Graham’s parents are getting
divorced, and instead of studying, he just
wants to scream.

Graham’s not alone. Parental divorce is
a disturbingly frequent reason students
drop out of college, said Susan
Hambleton, who’s earning her doctorate
in counseling education at the University
of Florida.

“They may not directly say ‘I’m leaving
school because my parents are divorcing,’
but along with divorce you find a lot of ex-
tenuating circumstances — the financial,
emotional and relocation stress that goes
along with divorce,” she said.

Hambleton, in fact, is finding that
divorce — normally studied for its effects
on young children — can have a great im-
pact on college students. College-aged
children of divorcees, Hambleton said,
may develop an inability to develop loving
relationships of their own. ‘‘The impact
(of their parents’ divorce) may be ‘whom
can I trust?,’”” she said.

Hambleton has formed a support group
at the UF Student Health Services clinic to
help students caught in the emotional
whirlwind surrounding a family breakup.

“T don’t think people really recognize
the needs college students have in a
divorce,’’ she said. “‘They assume that
since they’re older, they can handle it.”

Students going through a parental
breakup often feel they need to go home to
“take care of things,’ Hambleton. said.

“Sometimes they get really distracted, par-
ticularly if they’re far away from home.””

Graham, for instance, feels pressured to
find a high-paying job to help his mother,
who’s retired and can expect little from her
soon-to-be ex-husband. Though he plans
to finish this school year, his last semester
of a five-year degree, Graham said his
plans for graduate school are dead.

Students in Hambleton’s group — their
names are changed for privacy — are in
many different stages of family breakup,
from impending divorce to ten years after.
On the Friday before spring break, the
support group gathered in her office for
the sixth time.

While many at the university had
already packed their bags for home, an-
ticipating a week of thoughtless relaxation,
mom cooking dinner and perhaps a holi-
day family get-together, the mood in the
health clinic office bordered on anxiety.

“I’m feeling pressure from both sides,’’
said Regina, 18. ‘“‘My father asked me to
come visit him. But I’m going home to see
my mom. It feels funny.””

Regina’s parents divorced ten years ago,
yet parental divorce can be ‘‘like a pill that
takes a few years to come out in your
body,”’ said Steven, 24, whose family split
up two years ago — for the third time.

Like many in the group, Steven and
Regina said they’re just now feeling the

repercussions — feelings of “afiger, in-
security and guilt — of their family
breakups. ©

Steven said he feels a heavy sense of
responsibility, ‘‘like I have to be the knight
in shining armor’? who over Easter

somehow must solve the conflict that has
scattered a family of five brothers, three
fathers and a mother. Yet sharing their
stories in the group, the students agree,
helps.

APRIL 17th

“Tet me know what I’m feeling is
okay,’ is what they want to hear,” said
Hambleton. ‘‘Their friends say, ‘just
forget about it.’ But they can’t.””

“You can’t shove (the problem) in a box
and make it go away,’ Graham said.

Graham, a 25-year-old senior, expects
his parents’ final court hearing in two
weeks. And besides affecting his studies,
the divorce may be ruining his relationship
with a long-time girlfriend.

“I know my parents’ divorce has a lot to
do with it,’”’ he says. ‘“The minute (my
girlfriend) brought up marriage, I wanted
out. It’s left a real bad taste in my mouth
about that little piece of paper.””

Because forming relationships is so im-
portant — and scary — for young adults,

the disillusionment that follows parental
breakup may be the most serious problem
faced by such students, Hambleton said.

““Whenever we meet, we usually end up
discussing relationships, how they feel
about getting involved with people,’’ she
said. ‘They want to know ‘how can I
guarantee this won’t happen to me.”’”

Instead of guarantees or promises,
Hambleton offers a safe place for students
to share their feelings and receive support,
sometimes suggestions of a better way to
deal with family and friends.

She’s heard of no other divorce support
groups for college students, but would like
to. “This is a problem affecting students
academically,” she said. “And so, I think
it’s a responsibility of a university to
help.’” i

Dear Campus Citizen:

In December, 1985 the ‘‘University Policy Governing Use of
Alcohol’’ was adjusted, after a committee composed of
students, faculty and professionals discussed and recommended
several changes. Having received the approval of campus
governance, the University Council and the President, the revis-
ed alcohol policy took effect four months ago.

The Statement of Policy which follows is in compliance
with city and state regulations. It is presented in the ASP as
one method to educate the campus communtiy.

Two significant aspects of the policy are drawn to your
attention:

1, ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES ARE PROHIBITED IN
THE OUT-OF-DOORS, ON THE PODIUM. PLEASE
DO NOT DRINK WHILE ‘‘PODIATING”.

2. NO BULK CONTAINERS (E.G., KEGS AND BEER
BALLS) ARE PERMITTED IN INDIVIDUAL ROOMS
AND/OR SUITES.

For a complete copy of the University Policies Governing
the Use of Alcohol please consult with James Doellefeld, Direc-
tor of Campus Life, CC 130; John Martone, Assistant Vice
President for Residential Life and Housing, Eastman Lounge,
State Quad; or Alice Corbin, Director of Judicial Services, AD

Hobart obliterates the rest

of Division Ill lacrosse field

Geneva, N.Y.
(AP) If any NCAA Division III lacrosse
team was going to challenge Hobart Col-
lege’s top-ranked status, last week was
supposed to be the time.

The toughest small college lacrosse
teams in America — next to Hobart —
were supposed to provide the challenge.

It looked that way on paper anyway
with a visit from second-ranked
Washington College kicking off Hobart’s
week, followed by road trips to ninth-
ranked St. Lawrence, No. 15 Ithaca Col-
lege and then-second-ranked Cortland
State.

But the Statesmen haven’t been
challenged yet. After disposing of
Washington College (20-4) and St.
Lawrence (31-6) with startling ease,
Hobart hammered Ithaca, 21-5, in Ithaca,
before dispatching Cortland State, 26-7.

Hobart has won the last six NCAA Divi-
sion ITI lacrosse titles and is going after an
unprecedented seventh straight national
championship.

So the Statesmen, 7-1 and riding
seven-game winning streak after losing an
opener to Division I power Johns
Hopkins, would appear to be ready for
their next challenge: Saturday’s home
game against Syracuse, the top-~ated ma-
jor college team.

“J don’t want to take anything away
from my kids, but we are catching a few of
these teams in an unfortunate situation
personnel-wise,”” said Hobart coach Dave
Urick of his team’s recent string of vic-
tories, which began with a 29-2 romp over
Genesso State.

The people in Cortland were hoping to
give Hobart a strong run. Cortland State
went into the weekend game ranked se-
cond in the nation, but the Red Dragons

fell to Hobart for the 13th straight time,
giving up the most goals by a Cortland
State lacrosse team in the school’s 43-year
lacrosse history.

Just where is this Hobart team so po-
tent? “I don’t know, I’m still trying to
find out where they’re not,” a puzzled
Cortland coach Jerry Casciani remarked
Moments after the rampaging Statemen
put on a dazzling defensive and offensive
show.

“To slow Hobart down you just can’t
put the ball on the ground,” said Casciani.
“I told our team to try to improve our fun-
damentals. We’ve been working on

I said, hey, the team that dominates the
groundballs is going to do it.

“That’s what gives you transition.
Come up with the groundball, feed the
open man right away, then it’s up and
down the field. That’s the answer, 96
(Hobart) groundballs and probably half of
that is transition.””

Hobart led Cortland State only 5-3
heading into what proved to be a pivotal
second period. After both sides went
scoreless for 6 minutes of that second
period, the Statesmen applied the crusher;
six Hobart goals with unselfish, textbook
quick-touch passing in the next four
minutes en route to a 12-3 halftime lead.

“That was the big difference,” said Cas-
ciani of the sudden spree.

Saturday’s defeat knocked Cortland
State, the dominant team in the SUNYAC
the last decade, from second to fifth place
in the latest coaches lacrosse poll.

Cortland is 4-4 and hosts SUNY Con-
ference games with Oswego and Buffalo
State on Thursday and Friday, respective-
ly.

The snowball effect of losing
came to a head Saturday and
manifested itself in the form of a
14-7 loss to the Geneseo Knights
as the Albany State lacrosse team
dropped to 5-5.

The Danes are 1-5 since return-
ing from Florida’s Sun Coast
tournament with four victories
under their belts, and brought a
three-game losing streak to
Western New York for Saturday’s
loss.

Head coach Chuck Priore
didn’t have to look hard to figure
out what went wrong on the field
against the 2-5 Knights.

“I guess when you come in and
you’ve lost three games in a row,

played a run-and-gun game
against Geneseo, and we’re not
going to win that way. We did
things that weren’t coached.””

Cerny and Spadaro accounted
for 18 of Albany’s 30 shots, but
only scored two goals apiece.
Hurley, who normally carries a
good deal of the shooting load,
only tested the Geneseo net once,
when he scored in the first
quarter. He also registered an
assist. Vottis finished with two
goals and an assist on three shots.

Federation had a hat trick and
three assists and Dooling had two
goals for the Knights. y

Great Danes shut down New Paltz in twinbill

By Cathy Errig
STAFF WRITER
The first game played by the
Albany State baseball team in
almost a week was worth the wait.
The Danes took both ends of a
twin bill from New Paltz State, a
team in their first season of
SUNYAC competition by
defeating the Hawks 6-0 and 15-0.

the second game was called after
four and one half innings, under
the NCAA 10-run rule. The
Danes’ record is now 7-2.

“We hit well out there today,”’
said Zaloom, whose team erupted
for 21 hits over 10 innings and
raised their team batting average
from 270 to 336. ‘New Paltz was
weak, but you can never afford to

take a team like
granted.”

Dane co-captain Chris Fletcher
started the first game for Albany,
and picked up his fourth win of
the season by pitching six innings,
giving up only two hits and strik-
ing out eight.

The only scoring threat occured

gave up back-to-back hits, a
single and a double, with one man
out. He then struck out the next
two batters to retire the side.
The Danes, conversely, opened
the game by scoring three runs in
the first inning. Second baseman
Bob Petterson led off with a
single, stole second, and scored
on shortstop Dave Theleman’s

“7 single. Theleman moved to se-
cond on rightfielder Fred Sac-
cocio’s single, and both scored
when Fletcher singled.

The Danes added another run
in the second inning, when cat-
cher Dave Hennessy walked, and
was replaced by pinch runner Al
Pedley. Pedley stole second, and
scored on third baseman Howard
Hammond’s single.

In the third inning, the Danes
scored again when Theleman
singled, stole second, and moved
to third on Saccocio’s sacrifice
fly. Theleman scored on a wild
pitch by Hawk pitcher Steve Gill.

The final Dane run was scored
in the sixth inning, when Pete
Rhenish, in for Hennessy, singl-
ed, and was replaced by pitch run-
ner Tom Bravata, who stole se-
cond. Bravata moved to third on
Rudi Licciardi’s sacrifice fly, and
scored on Jim Ross’ single.

The second game, which in-
volved every Dane non-pitcher ex-
cept Dave Hennessy, was started
by Al Pedley, who worked three
innings in his first start of the

season. Pedley was wild, walking
six, and was replaced by the even-
tual winning pitcher Bob Tobias,

who struck out three over two in-
nings. Tobias’ record now stands
at 2-1, with a 1.95 ERA.

The Danes shelled the New
Paltz staff for 12 hits and 15 runs,
scoring twice in the second inn-
ing, 10 in the third, and three in
the fourth. Driving runs for the
Danes were Petterson, Wallace,
Theleman, Saccocio (2), Ham-
mond, Fletcher (2), Martilla, and,
on a three-run round-tripper,
Ross.

“Jim is developing a nice sw-
ing,”’ said Zaloom. ‘‘It was good
that he finally got the opportunity
to DH.””

The decision to call the game
was made during the third inning
by Zaloom and New Paltz coach
Vince Crantz, when the Danes
were leading, 8-0.

“It’s kind of selfish,’ said
Zaloom, ‘‘but New Paltz is a con-
ference team, and I want them to
beat our opponents. I didn’t want
their kids to throw their arms
out.””

The Danes now face the job of
rescheduling the games against
Binghamton and Cortland which
were cancelled due to inclement
weather. The Danes will play Cor-
tland on Thursday, and Bingham-
ton on April 30th. The reschedul-
ing of Cortland on Thursday
gives Albany eight games to play
in seven days, the doubleheader
against Cortland being the most
cruical to the Danes’ conference
standing.

Albany netmen tie fall-spring record of 14 wins

By Kristine Sauer
‘SPORTS EDITOR

By defeating Hobart and Middlebury
this past weekend, the Albany State men’s
tennis team came up with the two victories
they needed to tie the school’s all-time fall-
spring combined record of 14 wins.

The Dane netmen should break the

record this afternoon against Union
Otherwise, they have another crack at it on
Thursday at Skidmore.
The two weekend triumphs set the Danes
at 6-4 for the spring. Albany defeated
Hobart 6-3 on Friday at the Capitaland
Racquet Club in Albany. After taking four
of six in the singles flights, the Danes
finished 2-3 in doubles.

At first singles senior David Grossman
lost a three set match to Hobart’s Steve
Wang, 3-6,6-4,6-3. Senior Tom Schmitz
blew by Joe Holmes of Hobart, 6-2, 6-0 at
second singles. Albany’s number three
singles player and captain, Jay Eisenberg,
beat Roger Berger, 6-1, 4-6, 6-4.

In other singles play, senior Mike Der-
mansky coasted to a 6-1,6-2, victory at
fourth singles for the Danes over Hobart’s
Todd Forman. In fifth singles action
junior Dave Zobler lost to Dave Kartziwel,
6-0, 7-5. Albany’s Marc Singer came
through with a 6-1, 6-l,win over Peter
Foote at sixth singles.

Albany’s first doubles team of
Grossman and Schmitz came back after
losing the first set to Hobart’s Wong-
Holmes duo to win 4-6,6-2,6-2. At second
doubles the veteran combination of
Eisenberg and Dermansky downed For-
man and Berger, 6-1,6-2. Albany’s third
singles duo of Singer and Bob Gibson

didn’t fare well losing 7-6,4-6,6-3 to
Hobart’s Kartzinel and Foote.

On Saturday the netmen continued their
winning ways as they trounced Mid-
dlebury, 7-2. the Danes clinched five
singles and two doubles matches.

Grossman bounced back from his loss
on Friday to take Middlebury’s first
singles player, Pranay Ramdeu 7-5, 6-4.
Schmitz continued to dominate as he easily
defeated Noah Pollack, 6-2, 6-1. At third
singles, Eisenberg cruised past Ross
Goodheart, 6-2, 6-3. Dermansky put in a
6-2,6-1 victory over Nick Laiard. At fifth
singles Zobier landed a 6-2, 6-4 triumph
over Middlebury’s Mike Boardman. Mid-
dlebury’s Scott Sloan took the final singles
flight by overcoming Albany’s Singer 6-3,
6-4.

“Middlebury went very well, ” Said
Eisenberg. ‘‘I did what I had to do. We’re
on a three match winning streak and so am
2 By

Zobler said, “‘I had some tough luck
early in the season. I lost three three setters
in a row, I hope to start to win some of
those. I had a good win against Mid-
dlebury, hopefully I can use it as a turning
point.”

In doubles play Grossman and Schmitz
defeated Pollack and Boardman, 6-3, 6-3.
Second doubles saw a bit of a change with
Eisenberg teaming up with Gibson to blow
by Ramdeu and Laird 6-0, 6-4. Mid-
dlebury’s Goodheart-Soan due defeated
the Singer and Zabler combination, 6-2,
6-2.

“Tt was a thrill to tie the record,”’ said
Dermansky. ‘‘The team played well this

weekend. Everyone’s playing better and
better.”

The Netmen still have six matches, in-
cluding today’s matchup with Union. Ac-
cording to head coach Bob Lewis three of
their last four matches should be tough.
Amhersy, Williams and Colgate will be
good competition for them.

“We're starting to hit our stride,”’ said
Lewis. ‘‘The team overall is playing pretty
well. Hopefully if we can win two or three
of those tough ones I‘d count that as very
good for us.’”

He also said that Grossman has a good
shot at making nationals and the first
doubles team of Grossman and Schmitz

have an excellent chance at doubles. While
Schmitz has an outside chance at singles.
This year’s nationals will be held in
California, outside Los Angelos.

“7’m not done yet,” said Eisenberg.
“I'd love to see us run off six straight
wins. Dave and Tommy have a good shot
to go to the nationals. At this point I’m
trying to win all my matches.”

Zobler said, ‘‘If we get good weather
there’s no reason we shouldn’t further
destroy the record. We played the toughest
part of our season already. There’s no
reason we shouldn’t shatter the record.”

‘I’m happy the seniors can go out with
another record,”’ he added. Oo

The men’s tennis team defeated Hobart and Middlebury.
