Radio system donated to escorts

By Andrea Corson
‘STAFF WRITER
‘A new radio communications system and ad-
ministrative structural changes are providing the
means for the Don’t Walk Alone escort service to
become more accessible to students on campus.

‘According to the Program’s Director, Cheryll
Oransoff, $2,000 was donated to Don't Walk
Alone by the Class of *85 with the designated pur-
pose of buying a communications system.

“The first thing we changed from last spring is
not having people stationed at the quads,"” said
Oransoff. She explained that the quad escorts were
not utilized and that most people used the service
when returning from the library.

She added, however, that now with the radio
system, if someone needs an escort, they can call
the Don't Walk Alone office in the Campus Center
and an escort would be able to meet tham at any
location on campus. The system is currently gn
order.

Instead of having people sit around in the Cam-
pus Center, Oransoff said, there will be a base sta-
tion and four hand-held units. One persoa will run
the base station and staff the phoney while each
team of escorts will have one of the hand-held

units, she added.

“This will make us much more efficient and should
be less time consuming for us,”” said Oransoff. It
will also eliminate the need for escorts to come back
and forth from the Campus Center since they will
be able to receive calls on the hand held units, she
said,

Sophomore Maria Maglione, who is a captain on
Wednesday nights and Oransoff’s assistant, said
she feels that the radio system is an excellent idea
and that it is definitely going to be an asset. “It will
make things.run-smoother,”” she ssid. <- -

Oransoff also said that there will be two captains
a nighit instead of one. “One captain (will be) in the
office and one in the library to spread out the
responsibility,” she explained.

‘According to Oransoff, Maglione is much need-
‘ed, ‘She worked in the spring and is familiar with
the service,"® she said. ‘We fix the schedules and
make sure the captains make all their calls and if
they can’t, she'll keep trying for them.

‘An additional change made was the switching of
t-shirts to hats for escorts to wear, which Oransoff
said she feels was a good idea. “‘Hats are much
more visible especially in cold weather,” she said,

City evicts Quail St.
resident on grouper
law violation charge

By James O'Sullivan
NEWS EDITOR

An Albany student has been told he miust leave his apartment by
the end of the month for violating the city’s grouper law, but the
only guarantee university officials say they can offer is that they'll
try to help him find another place to live.

“Twas told to leave by the city back in August,”

Gerhard, a senior living at 294 Qui lool
another apartment. Gerhard lives with three other students, but he
is the only one who didn’t sign the lease

Albany's Grouper Law states that no more than three unrelated
persons may live in the same rental unit.

Gerhard said he went to the office of Residential Life earlier this
week to seek help in finding another place to live, and was given a
copy. of the off-campus listings available to all students. “I wasn't
really expecting anything, I just figured I might as well ask,’ he
said.

‘One of the reasons Gerhard said he went to Residential Life was
because of an Albany Student Press article in which Vice President
of Student Affairs Frank Pogue was quoted as saying SUNYA
could, as a last resort, provide on-campus housing for evicted
students only after all other options were ruled out.

Residential Life staff people, Gerhard said, “told me that they
were never really told about it.

“They knew what Pogue had said
them through channels,’’ he added.

Gerhard said he was advised to go to Pogue's office in the Ad-
ministration building, but that he ‘just hasn't gone yet," He said
he assumed that he could be offered housing in the Wellington
Hotel or increased occupancy in on-campus facilities when he
went.

“At no point did I say that the University was guaranteeing
housing,”” stressed Pogue, saying the ASP article was correct only
‘given the availability”” of on-campus space.

The only guarantee that can be offered completely, said Pogue,
is that SUNYA will help students find housing using the services
currently offered through the Off Campus Housing Office
(OCHO).

‘OCHO offers listings of apartments available if the unit has been
brought to their attention, said the office’s director, Tom
Gebhardt, who stressed that OCHO was only a “referral service”*
and could not help actually place a student in an off campus
situation,

Instead of mieeti

line reduction has been proposed
so that groups have to make 97
percent of their original income,
he said, “Because they now have
less money to spend, they cannot

same amount.” he added

‘A group's “income line’? is the
amount of money a group is ex-
pected to return to SA from
various fund raising activities,
such as ticket sales or members’
dues.

There are several reasons for
the deficit, said Schwartzman
“Groups that did not make the
income line, the Athletics Ad-
visory Board which had a
deficit at the end of last year, and
Guinness Day is a big part of it.
Also, accounts payable," he said,

“Athletics has historically ovrs-
pent it’s budget," said SA Presi-
dent Steve Gawley. “They are
presently overextended by
$20-30,000, They must be more
closely monitored,” he said,

“New events like Guinness Day

can be expensive,"” said Schwart-
zman, adding that the event cost
SA $10-15,000.

“Guinness Day was supposed
to pay for itself,”” said Gawley,
dding, “‘it was one of the most
incredible events this university
has ever run and it would have

“The accounting firm Cooper

pre-numbered tickets and

Boy found in rubble

Mexico City
(AP) Miners and soldiers, listening for
rapping noises that signaled life, tunneled
through a collapsed building Wednesday
toward a nine-year-old boy and his grand-
father believed to have survived a massive
earthquake nearly two weeks ago.

Rescue workers said they believed the
boy was alive because they used a
microphone system to call out his name
and he responded with tapping.

‘They were trapped the morning of
September 19 when an earthquake measur-
ing 8.1 on the Richter scale colapsed the in-
terior of their three-story apartment and
commercial building on Venustiano Car-
ranza Street. A second quake measuring
7.5 hit the city the next day, Together they

Soviets kidnapped

Beirut, Lebanon
(AP) Kidnappers of four Soviet Embassy
employees killed one of them Wednesday
and said the others will die unless Syrian-
backed militias halt an offensive against
Moslem fundamentalists in the northern
port of Tripoli, ‘

‘An anonymous telephone caller claimed
a second captive had been killed, and
another said Moslem extremists planned to
blow up the embassy,

In Moscow, a government statement
carried by the Tass news agency carried a
report of the death, demanded the im-
mediate release of the remaining hostages
and blamed Israel indirectly for the abduc-
tion of the four Soviet officials,

“Procrastination in this matter, let
alone the violence against the Soviet
citizenis, will further aggravate the guilt of
all those who have anything to do with this
matter. The prime cause of internal
Lebanese strife, of which Soviet citizens
become innocent victims, is Israel,
deliberately inciting that strife,"" the state-
‘ment said. ‘It should bear the responsi
ty for the consequences of its policy."

Rock Hudson dies

Los Angeles
<AP) Rock Hudson, the cinema idol whose
gallant admission of a yearlong battle
against AIDS won sympathy and attention
for victims of the disease, died Wednes-
day. He was 59.

Hudson made his film debut in “Fighter
Squadron’? in 1948. Other film credits
clude “Giant”, “Something of Value",
“A Farewell to Arms”, ‘The Last
Sunset”, ‘A Gathering of Eagles’.

“Pillow Talk", “Send Me No Flowers’

Hudson turned to television after” 61
films. He starred for six seasons on NBC's
“McMillan and Wife."’ He also appeared
‘on the TV shows ‘The Devlin Connec-
tion,” and this past season on ABC's
“Dynasty.”

Reactor to restart

Washington
(AP) The Supreme Court on Wednesday
cleared the way for the immediate restart
of a nuclear reactor at Three Mile Island in
Pennsylvania, site in 1979 of the nation’s
worst commercial nuclear-plant accident.
A plant spokesman said the reactor could
be turned on again by noon Thursday.

The court, by an 8-1 vote, rejected an
emergency request from a citizens’ group
that said it is too risky for operations at the
plant to resume.

Within several hours of the ruling,
Harold Denton, director of the office of
nuclear reactor regulation at the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, signed a letter
authorizing the restart.

Final approval must come from Thomas
Murley, the NRC’s regional administrator,
who must be satisfied the plant is ready,
said NRC spokesman John Kopeck.
*Murley was not expected to act until
Thursday, Kopeck said.

Delaware River's largest oil spill within a
20-mile stretch of the river Wednesday as

The oil was contained within an area
from Chester Island off Chester, Pa., to
the entrance of the canal near Delaware

Gloucester City, N.J.

Only a few heavy pockets of oil remain-

The State

Judge censured

Albany
(AP) A New York City judge who ordered
a teen-age prostitute to sit beside him on
the criminal court bench for a few hours
should be censured, the: state’s watchdog
panel has recommended.

In a 6-3 decision Thursday, the state
Commission on Judicial Conduct said
Civil Court Judge Lester Evens should be
given an official slap on the wrist for a
series of incidents in 1984, while serving
temporarily in the New York City
Criminal Court.

Evens, 62, was presiding in the arraign-
‘ment section of criminal court on Feb. 28,
1984, when a teen-age prostitute fell asleep
while waiting for someone to bring her bail
money. Evens ordered the young woman
to sit at the bench with him to keep her
awake, which drew laughter and snickers
in the courtroom, the commission said. He
later vacated her fine and allowed her to go
free:

Drawing most of their persuasive am-
munition from an afternoon's conversa-
tion at W.T.'s, a British debate team con-
vinced a roomful of listeners Tuesday
night that civil disobedience is wrong.

Though they strayed from the official
topic: "This House Would Break a Bad
Law," the two Englishmen’ delighted the
audience at the Albany-Oxford debate
with their witty comments on issues rang-
ing from the minimum drinking age to the
worldwide lawyer surplus.

A crowd of approximately 100 students,
gathered in the Campus Center Assembly
Hall to watch the event, which was co-
sponsored by the Albany State Debate
Society and. Speaker's Forum.

While thie host team based its arguments
in favor of breaking a ‘bad law” on 20
hours of preparation, the Englishmen
claimed to have prepared for ‘four or five
minutes.”

While the Albany-duo of Diane Sepan-
ski and Steve Mundie asserted that laws
should be violated if they are
: *,“inequitable’’, or

*, Michael Hall of Oxford,
accused his opponents of ignoring tig
questions, such as “How do we stop the
drinking age from going up?”’ and “How
do we get into law school and make lots of
money?”

It seems that the Debate Society unwit
tingly supplied much of the Englishmen's
debate material by discussing the drinking
age and the profusion of lawyers with
them at W.T.’s earlier that da

“Breaking the law does not work"’, Hall
claimed. To demonstrate his point he
asserted the futility of changing the absurd
law which requires Americans to drive on
the right side of the road. By attempting to
change that law by driving on the ‘‘cor-
rect” side, ‘I would get crushed’” he said.

Hall temporarily abandoned his position
early in the debate, urging the audience,
“we must defeat the lawyers and the onl
way to do it is through civil disobedienc
Basing his argument on stati
evidence that shows lawyers to be increas-
ing at a faster rate than the general popula-
tion, he warned, “In 14 years an absolute
majority of the population will be lawyers.
In 23 years everybody under the age of 42
will be a lawyer.?

Despite his jibes at the legal profession,
Hall and his patner, David Lock, who is
actually from Cambridge, are studying to

become barristers, lawyers who argue
cases in court.

It seems probable that they will have
successful careers, for they made up for
their deficiencies in substance with a relax-
ed and confident style,

During a more serious moment, Sepan-
ski asserted that it was ‘immoral for peo-
ple to obey a bad law.” Bad laws included
the anti-Semitic statutes of Nazi Germany
and the Jim Crow system in the United
States South, she claimed.

By that defintion he said, laws did not exist
in Nazi Germany, because there was no
process for change.

“We can within the system...advocate
changes in the law,” Locke said, adding,
“by breaking the law, we destroy respect
for the system."

Responding to Albany's statement that
violating an “inequitable” law is just,
Lock asked, ‘Who should decide what is
inequitable?’

After the debate, the audience was asked
to show their support for one or the other
team, by exiting through designated door-
ways. The final tally favored the British
59-27.

Hall and Lock were scheduled to tour
Albany on Wednesday. SUNYA was their
third stop on their tour which will take
them through Washiug' on, D.C., Ken-
tucky, and Wyoming among other states.

Their previous debates, entitled “Thank
God for the Atlantic’” were held at Marist
and Saint Lawrence.

‘They said they were selected for the tour
by a competitive application process, but
they have no coaching or faculty support.
Their expenses are paid by the host
schools. In the case of their Albany trip,
the SUNYA Student Association paid the
bill.

Michael White, the Debate Society's
Vice President of On Campus Affairs, said
the Society hoped to sponsor more debates

semester.

Wristbands may keep bars open after ‘21’ law

By David Kase

Students who will be affected
by the 21 year old drinking age
may still be able to socialize at
local bars through the use of
wristbands or hand stamps, Stu-
dent Action Committee Chair
Larry Hartman said at Wednes-
day's Central Council meeting.

According to Hartman,
Washington's Tavern (WT’s) on
Western” Avenue has already
agreed to implement this policy.

‘Other social alternatives are
also being investigated in order to
provide students with activities
after the 21-year-old drinking age
goes into effect on December 1.

“Wristbands or handstamps
are used in bars in other states to
differentiate those people of
age,"” said Hartman,

disabled students,the need for a
new van was brought to our
attention.””
‘The task force was set up by
“University Action for the Disabl-

the task force is in the process of
raising money and the chances of
getting a new vehicle before the

with it and try to work with it."*

“The deficit will gradually
work it's way down during the
course of the year,”” said Schwart-
zman. ‘The ‘Budget Cutback/In-
come Line Reduction’ plan
should reduce the deficit by at
least one half," he added.

The deficit this year: in com-
parison to previous deficits is a lot
smaller. ‘We're not here to make
money,” said Gawley, “if we had
a surplus of the same: size, that
wouldn’t be right either.

Approximately 9,200 students
pay a student activity fee each
year and SA works with a budget
‘of about $1,000,000.

“There's never a point in time
when we have that much
money,"’ said Scwartzman,
“because it is not remitted to us
from student accounts and
because student groups are always
spending money.”

‘Each group will be affected
differently by the budget cut,”
said Schwartzman. ‘Some of the
larger groups will be losing
thousands of dollars whereas a
smaller group may lose $50. This
$50 may seem like a greater loss to
the smaller group because of the
size of their organizational
budget,” he added.

“1 feel “that the budget cuts
won't hurt the groups as bad as
might have been expected," said
SA’s Programming Director Bet-
ty Ginzburg. “The programming
office has known about the
budget cuts for a while and is now
preparing for any changes that
may result because of them,” she
said.

“Because of the 21 drinking

je," said Ginzburg, ‘groups

have to look for creative,
coholic programming
anyway. ‘While the
budget cuts may have more im-
pact on smaller groups,” said
Ginzburg, ‘‘imaginative program-
ming should put them back on
top.”

“Groups both made and spent
more money last year. By work-
ing closely with the controller's
office, we will be monitoring how
groups are spending most of their
money,” said Ginzburg.

“I can’t see how the budget cut
will affect the radio station, it's
just something we'll have to live

said Jon Cosin, General

“The only problem I can
foresee is with the broadcast of
sports events like basketball and
football games. Also, we'll have
to cut back on some equipment
we were planning on purchasing

we needed we got. SA is letting us

SCATE plans to provide realistic course info.

By Ken Dombaum
EDITORIAL ASSESTANT

For the first time in over ten years, Stu?
dent Association will be organizing stédent
evaluations of SUNYA faculty, and the
result of the evaluations will be compiled
for students ‘to consult - before pre-
registration in the spring, said Michelle
Legendre, Chair of the Academic Affairs
Committee of Central Council.

“SCATE (Student Course and Teacher
Evaluation) hasn't been done in years, not
since 1975," said Legendre, adding, “it
takes a lot of effort."*

‘The last survey, called ACT Ill (Assess-
‘ment of courses and teachers), was dif-
ficult to use as it was just statistics, and no
narrative. It was very hard to follow,”
shew said. -

“The main reason we're doing this is to
help people select courses, especially for
gen €d [general education requirements}
and because of the ‘W' policy,” said
Legendre. ‘‘It will be great working along
side with peer advisement,"* she added.

“We're going to distribute the findings
widely," said Legendre. ‘‘A couple of
thousand dollars has been set aside in the
‘SA budget for it," she added.

“We will be working with (Associate)
Vice President for Academic Affairs
Harry Hamilton and Pat Terenzini, special
assistant to President O'Leary.” Legendre
added that the SCATE project is being
coordinated with the SUNYA
administration.

“SA couple of years ago, the University
Senate passed a bill that required all.
courses to be monitored and we'll be work-.
ing with them,’ said Legendre. ‘The’
resulting book will be either very cheap or
free," she said.

Currently, both SUNY-Buffalo and
SUNY-Binghamton have SCATE's, accor-
ding to Legendre, ‘‘Buffalo has a whole
course on how to do SCATE,”’ she :said,
adding, “Both Buffalo. and Binghamton

also have SA‘ Vice Preside ats for Academic
Affairs who do SCATE.””

According to Central Council Chair Bill
McCann, SA is considering a similar posi-
tion, Student Association of the State
University (SASU) had a resohition 16’
push for an SA Vice President for
Academic Affairs ‘at all State Univer-
sities," McCann ‘said. Currently, the
academic Affairs Committee of the Cen-
tral Council is handling SCATE.

“We're just’ working on the logistics
‘with the administration. We're not sure yet
of how it will come out or what classes will
be surveyed,” said Legendre. ‘Also we
have the. questions we want to ask. It is a
matter of cost and who will administer the
evaluation," she said.

Ed Kelly memorial funds left unused

By Roz Bickel

‘An estimated sum of money that could
be as much as $5,000 is. sitting unused
while the weight room it was intended to
renovate remains unchanged,

‘The money was raised through a series
of fundraisers last spring for the “Ed
Kelly Memorial Fund.”

Kelly, ‘a member of the Class of '85
died on January 24, 1985, from a cerebrat
hemorrhage. He was a business major and
played on the lacrosse and rugby teams.

According to Eric Schwartzman, Con-
troller of Student Association (SA), the
1 money’ raised for the Ed Kelly’ Memorial
Fund was deposited into a fund that has
since been closed out.

The balance of money, estimated by
Schwartzman. to. be $5,000 was then

transfered to a University account to be us-

evaluation survey which was distributed in
1975, collected 19,000 questionnaires and
evaluated 750 classes. ‘Twenty questions
were asked about each one course.

‘At SUNY-Buffalo, the SCATE of Spr-
ing 1984 evaluated every class at the
University. “‘A ledger book of the number
of letter grades given by each professor in
their respective classes was made available
to the students for referance,’? said Jeremy
Blachman, Director of the SUNY-Buffalo
1984 SCATE:

“The administration here is very for it,”
said Legendre, adding that some faculty
members, however, are against the
Project.

Student evaluations are considered ex-

ed toward improving the weight room in
the University Gym and ‘renaming the
weight room:in memory of Kelly.

However, no changes have been made in
the weight room as of yet.

According to Physical Education
Facilities Coordinator Dennis Elkin,
former SA president Rich Schaffer was in
chargé of the memorial fund. Schaffer
dedicated a plaque to Kelly at the 1985
commencement exercises which now hangs
in the weight room. y

Schaffer was also working with
Athletics Director Bill Moore to begin
preparations for the improvement of the
room,

Current SA Pesident Steve Gawley said
he is not in charge of the account and
doesn’t know who is responsible for seeing

tremely important when it comes to
reviewing faculty for promotion and conti
nuing appointment,” said McCann. “Be-
ing a member of the University Senate
Council on promotions, this is definitely a
fact," he said.

think that SCATE offers students an
excellent opportunity to evaluate and pro-
perly select courses at SUNY by looking at
the judgements and comments of their‘
peers,"” said McCann.

“In light of the ‘W’,"” he continued,
“students have less time to decide on
whether to drop a course. SCATE
will help students make better course selec-
tions to avoid problems,” he added,

“If it goes along well,”” said Legendre,
“there will be a SCATE out each year.
[But} It’s really a lot of work.

that the money is properly channeled into
the weight room. “Rich Schaffer was in
charge of that last year,”” he said.

According to Moore, he is ‘definitely
aware" that the money is there waiting to
be put to use and that “eventually there
will be an expanded room." The sum of
money, which he estimated to be only
$1,600 will be used to expand and add new
equipment to the weight room,

It is only about one month into the year
and the project just hasn’t had time to be
started, said Moore.

When it does begin, he said, he will
receive recommendations from Charles
Priore and Edward Zaloom, who are in
charge of the free weights program, about
the exact improvements that are to be
made, They ‘will get going," he said, but
“there hasn't been enough time yet.""

ASRC receives grant

The Atmospheric Sciences Research Center
(ASRC) has been awarded a $3.5 million grant by
the Federal government to investigate the death of
forests in the eastern United States.

The ASRC will coordinate its research with other
atmospheric scientists and forest specialists through
the East to evaluate the effect of atmosphere con-
taminants on forests.

The project, funded by the Environmental Pro-
tection Agency, will use ASRC’s Whiteface Moun-
tain Field Station to collect data about the Adiron-
dacks, where thin soil levels have difficulty
neutralizing acid rain,

A federal court in Philadelphia recently ruled
that Temple University must let military recruiters

hibits homosexuality, *

Military wins battle

According to Temple University officials,
Philadelphia’s anti-descrimination laws forced the
school to bar the military. However, U.S. district
court judge James Giles said in his decision that
military rules supercede local laws.

Last year, SUNYA's Student Association sought
to deny military recruiters a table in the Campus
Center, but was overruled by the university
administration,

What a bargain!

SUNYA students riding the bus from the uptown
‘campus to Crossgates Mall will no longer be paying
a wo zone fare of 80 cents.

‘The Capital District Transit Authority (CDTA)

has removed the existing zone boundary at the in-
tersection of Washington Avenue and Fuller Road,
which reduces the fare to Crossgates by twenty
cents.
‘On April 1, 1985, CDTA increased its base fare
by ten cents. The reduction of the fare to
Crossgates is part of phase two of CDTA’s rate
restructuring program.

Study the ‘non-West’

(Intercollegiate Press) + Bowdoin College recently
adopted a ‘tnon-western"” studies requirement to

replace a old Foreign Studies
requirement. i

‘As ammended, the requirement reads: ‘‘Students
must take two courses with major focus on a
culture or society of Asia, Africa, Latin America,
or Russia. The requirement is intended to i
troduce students to cultures fundamentally dif-
ferent from their own.”

Debate about the requirement concerned both
the effectiveness of the proposal in achieving its
aim, and the desirability of those aims themselves.

RZA aims at summit

‘The November 19 summit meeting in Geneva bet-
ween Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev will
encompass mainly weapon issues, but there will
probably be pressure from President Reagan about
Soviet jewry as well.

The Revisionist Zionist Alternative (RZA) feels
President Reagan will make this issue 4. major one
at the bargaining table. ‘He (Reagan) says that this
is @ major concern that must be dealt with,"” said
RZA President Robin Berloff.

During the Festival of Sukkot, petitions about
the summit are being distributed. On November
10, RZA will participate in a rally on The Soviet
Consulate in New York. Other activites protesting
decreasing Soviet Jewish immigration will take
place throughout this semester, said Berloff.

U. of Arizona divests

(Intercollegiate Press) - Arizona’s Board of Regents
has voted to sell its stock in companies that do
business in South Africa, making the University of
‘Arizona the 17th college to approve divestiture
since April, when major student protests of campus
investment in the segragationist country broke out.

But the University of Vermont and South Illinois
University trustees eschewed total divestiture, op-
ting in votes last week to invest only in firms that
sign the Sullivan Principles, the business civil rights
code.

Anti-apartheid Florida students, meanwhile, pro-
tested a new prohibition of camping on campus.
Officials conceded the rule was aimed at stopping
sit-ins, but added that it won't apply to students
camping out for tickets to the Gator Growl, the big,
annual university show.

‘As the University prepares to
upgrade the current mainframe .
computer system, on-campus
computer user rooms have been
relocated to provide better access
for students.

A mainframe is a large”scale
‘computer system designed for use
with many desk-top terminals.
One of Albany's mainframes, the
Sperry 1100-83, is over 20 years
old,

The computer terminals in the
user rooms were moved this fall
to create more space as well as to
accomodate student needs. The
15 computer terminals and 5 IBM
microcomputers were relocated
from CS22 to LC 15 and LCB 27.

“The main reason for changing
the rooms,” said Leif Hartmark,
acting Director of the Computing
Center, ‘‘was to try and improve
the service and allow students
greater access to the computers.””

Hartmark said he felt that the
microcomputers weren't getting
‘enough use in CS 22 in the Com-
puting Center and by relocating
them to a more accomodating
area, students would be more
likely to use them. Although the
user terminals have always been
in demand, they are now being
“heavily used’ in the new room.

The old user room, CS 22, is
now a professional consulting of-
fice, said Patricia M. Panzl,
Associate Director of User Si
vices. “The Consulting Office is a
more visible and more obvious
place for students and faculty to
get help,” she said.

Pleased with the recent reloca-
tions, Panzl thinks LC 15 will be
better equipped to suit student
needs. The room is more like a
classroom, she said, adding, *

Gerhard’s eviction is only the
second one Gebhardt said he
knows of, although there may be
more students who found housing
without contacting OCHO, he
added. ‘Even though two sounds
small, 1 don’t kaow how many

Gebhardt stated.

Both Martone and Pogue said
they had not been notified of the
city’s action despite a long stan-
ding agreement that Pogue would
be notified of pending evictions.
“1 don't know if the student has
been evicted by the landlord or
the city,” said Pogue,

There have been few problems
with this new computer set-up,
according to Panzl. ‘“We hope to

the computer terminals are taking

Politics, technology both effect
implementation of ‘Star Wars’

By James S, Thompson

‘Avoiding the controversies sur-
rounding his topic Tuesday night,
Physics Professor Dr. Keith
Ratcliffe gave an_ instructional
lecture on the Strategic Defense
Initiatve, better known to its
critics as “Star Wars."”

Star Wars is a part of President
Reagan’s military arms build-up
which has been assailed by critics
as a dangerous escalation of the
arms race. The idea is to construct
a system that would destroy in-
coming nuclear missiles, but op-
ponents say it is impossible to
create a reliable anti-missile
system.

Star Wars has evoked much
response from Moscow whether
positive or negative, Ratcliffe
said, "The mere consideration of
such a plan has drawn more atten-
tion from the Soviets than any
previous projects."*

Ratcliffe stated that for a plan
to be successful it must satisfy
three requirements: operation, in-
vulnerability and relatively low
cost, The advances béing made in
the field of nuclear weapons has
provided pin point accuracy, he
said, explaining that a missile
launched 3,000 miles away will
miss its target by no more than
150 meters. This fact forces a
defense system to be that much
better,

“Strategic Defense Initiative,
or SDI, represents a good ap-
proach to helping along a
diplomatic solution. It is an en-
couragement for negotiations, if
nothing else,"” Ratcliffe told his
audience. Star Wars is not a blue
print waiting to be built, but dif
ferent defenses under considera-
tion, he added.

being given time to find another
place to live,

Gerhard said the city may have
been tipped off to the Grouper
Law violation by summer sublet-
ters who put four names on the
mailbox and one of whom got in-
to a minor fight with the
neighbors. ‘All they (Alvaro's
office) would tell us was that they
had a complaint,” he said.

Alvaro said the city's policy

Contrary to popular belief,
Star Wars is not a single system,
but rather it is three different and
separate options. The most that
comes to the minds of most peo-
ple, he said, is the beam weapons.
‘These weapons, Ratcliffe explain-
ed, would use lasers, streams of
electrons, X-rays or magnetic
beams to destroy attacking
missiles.

Although beam weapons would
be an effective defense since it
does not involve nuclear material,
it is neither cheap nor invincible.

Current funding for Star Wars
is for research only, Ratcliffe
said. “The goal is to have enough
research done by 1992 to be able
to make a decision as to deploy-
ment or termination,’ he
explained.

Another idea being studied is
the Kinetic Energy method, in
which an ordinary rocket would

adding that complaints are down

“1 have 125 places 1 could

working on a complaint basis,"”
Alvaro stated, explaining that
most complaints were about
noise, trash, and parking.

be fired at its target and the colli-
sion would create fatal damage to
a nuclear missile, With current
technology, though, the system
‘would fail because the rockets do
not travel much faster than the
missiles themselves, and therefore
the intercept time is much too
long.

Another plan is called the Rail
Gun system, which fires projec-
tiles at a target. The system is in-
suffiient, however, for the’same
reason as the Kinetic Approach —
lack of acceleration.

“People working on Star Wars
are still in the gadget phase,” said
Ratcliffe, ‘The problems do not
lie in the physics but the computer
software,” because in operation
the system would use computers
to perform all of the necessary
functions, He added, ‘We de-
pend on computers to detect
missiles, track them, choose
targets, determine fake warheads,
launch and assess kills."

The nature of an attack would
take less than half an hour from
boost phase, where the missiles
engines warm up, to. re-entry
from space. A defense system
would have to destroy the majori-
ty of these targets in the boost
phase, and therefore time is
everything, he said.

There is no time for the judge-
ment of a president or general,
said Ratcliffe, taking the decision
to use out of human hands.
“There is absolutely no room for
human reaction in the event of
nuclear war,” said Dr. Ratcliffe,
adding, “another fact is'a com:
puter must be able to perform
under the circumstances of a
nuclear attack, where some of its
functions may be disabled.”

As for Gerhard, who says the
landlord knew and accepted four
checks each month for the rent,
he's not sure where he'll be living
in the next few weeks. ‘I don't
know, I was supposed to be out
already — I'm not sure where I'm
going to go."

“We knew that we were break-
ing the law but we made the deci-
sion a long time ago," he said,
adding, ‘‘we figured we wouldn't
get caught." o

ICAC hopes programs have

students running to sports

By Jim Avery

Tro breathe new life into SUNYA’
athletics, changes will have to be made in
the Intercollegiate Athletics committee
(CAC), according to it’s new chair Mark
Rivers.

ICAC has primarily been a budgetary
committee dividing almost 250,000 «
year between SUNYA’s aihlére texma.
‘The money comes out of the student activi-
ty fee, but the committee has.a history of
deficit spending.

“It’s the students’ money that’s going
into the ICAC programs,"’ said Rivers. “It
should be the chair who plays an impor-
tant part in what happens to the money,
from budgets to planning, at every level,”
he added.

Rivers has developed a wide-ranging
plan addressing both monetary concerns
and increasing school spirit. ‘The students
should get the most out of what they pay
in,”’ he said, adding that he hopes to see
the two ends.of his goals feed off one
another, building momentum as the year
Progresses.

‘The central part of Rivers’ plan is the
formation of a booster club to support the
Danes, and raising money independently
through various methods: The booster
club would then put that money into
athletics through an ongoing fund.

“it could fund sports which might not
otherwise get the money. Hockey is a club
— we'd like to turn it into an inter-
collegiate," said Rivers, adding that ‘‘fur-
ther on down the line, we might decide to
light up the football field so we can play
~night games. With this fund the money
would be there."”

Rivers has designed a new athletic logo,
and he said he hopes to market it on sweat-
shirts, mugs and banners. Profits will be
added to the ICAC’s fund.

Promotion is another of Rivers concerns
as he hopes to hold some events off-
campus, increasing ICAC’s visibility

through media coverage. “I want to use
Heritage Park to reach out into the com-
munity. This in turn will. bring more
stidents in,'* he'said, Rivers said it might
bbe possible to hold a lacrosse doubleheader
in the park in the near future,

Besides taking events off-campus,
Rivers would like to bring special events
onto. campus, including championship
wrestling. According to Rivers, exhibitions
by the Harlem Globetrotters and guest
speakers like George Steinbrenner and
Howard Cosell are being considered.

“We want to make people aware that we
are one of the finest Division III schools in
the country,” Rivers said, adding that
“Unlike many schools, SUNYA is com-
mitted to. building.” As prof of our
school’s athletic abilities, Rivers cited that
Coach Munsey had just celebrated his
200th victory track meet in cross country.

“No matter what we do, Albany will
never be a Division I team. It's a matter of
making the most of it,” said Rivers.
“Other Division III schools make athletics
an important part of campus life,” he
added.

‘According to Rivers, ICAC is not just
athletics, but entertainment, and this in-
cludes halftime shows with bands or an
‘organized tug of war contest. ‘Sports will
be playing an increasing role. Things will
be shifting, especially with the 21 year old
drinking age," he said.

When asked about the “Bubble,” asnini
sports arena to be built near the gym,
Rivers said ‘The bubble will definitely
spark more interest. The main thing it will
do is free up space’’ in the gym. The bub-
ble, which will provide temporary indoor
room for the teams until the fieldhouse is
completed in 1988 will be ready for use in
the spring '86 season,

Overall, Rivers is expecting a good year,
and a new commitment to a growing

athletic department. His main goal is tis ,

get more students out there.’”

SARC popular with students

By Hillary Fink

Students have been ‘very enthusiastic’”
about signing up for the new Student Ad-
vocacy and Rights Coalition (SARC), ac-
cording to one of the group's organizers.
In fact, students are joining in numbers far
exceeding what was originally hoped for.

Phil Botwinick, the SARC coordinator
for State Quad, said, ‘On Monday
September 30, on dinner lines we had
several people running table sign-ups for
SARC, The students were very responsive;
in fact, most students were more than will-
ing to sign up once we told them we would
be informing them about important stu-
dent issues."”

SARC organizers “‘started with an
original goal of 2,000. We now have at
least 2,900, and it’s still moving,’" said
Steve Gawley, Student Association presi-
dent and the person responsible for getting
SARC organized and underway. He add-
ed, ‘the response has been fantastic. It’s
significant having all of these people sign
up and giving permission to call them."

SARC started with a two day recruit-
ment drive which was extended to a-full
week because the response was so strong.
They wanted to make sure they got to
every door on all five quads, and will most
likely be tabling in the Campus Center to
reach off-campus students, as well.

According to Jeff Rosen, the coor-
dinator for Colonial Quad, “about 95 per-
cent of studetns who were asked to sign up
said yes," SARC, he said, ‘is a good idea
and a good way fo keep people informed."”

Dutch Quad’ coordinator John Giar-
russo added, ‘‘Almost everyone who we
approached didn't have any problem with
signing or becoming involved. They were
really happy an effort was made to unify
the student body. No one had any animosi-
ty or minded our going door-to-door,
the students who said no, he said, he

thinks it’s ‘just becuase they're scared of
getting in trouble with their name on a list,
even though it was stressed that they
wouldn't get in trouble — especially with
two to three thousand names. At most, s0
far, five refused to sign."

Larry Hartman, a member of the SARC
steering committee and a chair of the SA
Student Action Committee, said, ‘SARC
is an information network to give students
news before it happens. It is a good idea as
far as getting students more involved in
‘what's happening and so any student can
feel comfortable getting involved with
SA.”

Not only are students signed up, but
campus groups have designated represen-
tatives that sit on the SARC Board,
Gawley, The number of groups
represented, he added, has about doubled
and now stands at 36.

“If a student issue arises that would un-
doubtedly alter or change student lives, it
is our obligation as well as responsibility to
educate students to these issues," said
Botwinick.

Giarrusso added that one of the issues
that SARC could become involved with is
the alcohol policy. “More than half of the
people who signed up were concerned with
the alcohol policy, They are willing to rally
to be able to drink on campus. They said
just to give them a .

Rosen said he thinks SARC ‘is going to
be effective, even if only 20 percent of peo-
ple called come to a rally, SARC will
hopefully be repeated year after year
because it will keep students in touch.””

Gawley said, ‘the administration will
have to view us differently. We will turn
out hundreds of students on issues of con-
cern to students. SA has gone a long way
in changing the fundamental power rela-

tionship between students and the ad-

If I could take back the night:
— I would take back the night that I really
wanted ice cream but it was after ten o'clock
and even a walk around the block would
have been a risk.
— I would take back the night that someone
followed me home and then stood, blocking.
my door, until my friend’s boyfriend came
out and chased him away.
— 1 would take back the night that my
friend was attacked on her way home from
shopping.
— And I would take back all those nights
that nothing frightening happened, but I
still walked in fear, with sweaty palms, my
eyes fixed on the path ahead, telling myself
that there was nothing but a stray cat hiding
in the shadows, telling myself that the man I
noticed in back of me just happened to be
going in my direction and at my pace. Only
the knowledge that every step was one step
+ closer to home, where there would be light
and I would feel safe, kept me from
panicking.
— I would take back all those nights I walk-
ed with a man, grateful for the escort, yet
resentful that 1 had to depend on him, and
angry that the night makes me helpless in
some ways.
— I would take back the nights that have
robbed me of my freedom: the ominous
darkness dictating when, where, how, and
with whom I could go out.
— And I would take back all those nights
that every woman has suffered through
these indignities, her plans limited in every
way by the setting of the sun, her. in-
dependence temporarily giving way to an
after-dark helplessness she can’t overcome.

Tonight, at 7 p.m., | wili take back the
night. I will join with other women from the
capital district in a march to reclaim. the
streets. We're meeting on the State Capitol
steps. From there we'll march through
downtown Albany, enjoying the safety that
comes in numbers, for once, not afraid of
what's lurking in the shadows, or around
the next corner.

It may be little more than a symbolic
demonstration of the anger | often feel
when I'm afraid to go out, but I'll be at
tonight’s march because, despite all the
beautiful sunsets that lead to nightfall, and
all the special moments that only a moonlit
starry night can create, and the sight of
Manhattan’s night lights that always leaves
me in awe, if I could take back the night, I
think | probably would:

“a

Their night

1 want to take back the night, if only by
going to the State Capitol tonight to show
my support for the women who march,
because I resent a society that puts some of
my friends in danger, simply because
they're women.

And I want to take back the night because
a woman should have the same rights as I
do: to walk under the stars when the nights
are cool, or just to walk to chopper if she
realizes she needs milk and it’s after dark.

Men won't be invited to march tonight.
The women will go together, without men,
where they wouldn't dare to be alone, And
I'll sit there on the Capitol steps as a show
of my support, as I did last year, happy for
my friends. Happy because tonight they will
triumph over the violence that reigns in the
night,

The Road Not Taken

‘The applause was thunderous at times. A hundred, two
hundred-a sea of faces. They had come out for a rally, a
protest.

| April Anastasi

Although they were but a small fraction of SUNYA’s
enrollment, at that moment, they seemed terribly power-
ful. Was it that they were the only ones concerned? Cer-
tainly many were oblivious, but surely with an enrollment
of over 16,000, there must be more who cared.

Of course there were. As the chants rose around me,
the masses crying, ‘SUNY Divest! SUNY Divest!"’ [
wondered if I should join them.

As the chills ran up and down my spine, I sat in silence
pondering their power, their knowledge, and their goals.
More people than I had thought expected an immediate
reaction to this rally,

The question in my mind, as the applause rose and fell
was-Is this the answer? By encouraging-no, demanding-

sdisinvestment, weren’t we turning our backs on our age-

old system of capitalism?

Weren't we attempting to control our money after it
was out of our hands? Isn't there some other way which
wouldn't abandon freedoms for which we had strived so
Jong and hard?

Tam not saying that South Africa should be allowed to
remain manacled by apartheid-I am not blind to the hor-
rors suffered daily. 1 merely question our means of
achieving our goals of abolishing apartheid.

Is disinvestment the answer - pulling out money which
supports the white majority? Needn’t we concentrate
more on encouraging no further investment instead of
demanding disinvestment upon deaf ears?

‘One speaker called the crowd “the conscience of the

80's.’"Is it this conscience which mindlessly chants
‘Divest SUNY now,’ upon demand, while choosing to
igno, + the oppressed and starving of qur own nation? If
we are the conscience can’t we find another way-which
would work? One which involved positive action and
results, rather than shows of power?
* Surely any method chosen would result in an uphill
fight. However, it would not be the first time such a battle
was won,

Rather than destroy themselves and their country, let
South Africa's population unite and mobilize itself.
Assuredly, it would not be easy, and it would most likely
have to’ be done covertly, Yet, the long-term results of
such a coalition could be fantastic.

Instead of warring factions separately fighting a ‘Big
Brother’’ government, let the minority unite and, as the
American colonists once had to so, fight back with their
wits and reason.

If it comes to bloodshed, as it did in America, let that
be.a last resort, after all intellectual avenues have proved
dead ends.

There also seems to be a prevalent need for a defintion
of the minority's ultimate goals, Without a clear explan:
tion of what it is they want, it may be difficult to en-
courage the masses to support means other then violence.
With a structured group of principles, their progress
toward their overall goal of replacing the present regime
(or, at the very least, imposing equality upon it) will be
more easily seen.

As I began to leave the rally, with these thoughts racing
through my mind, I was approached by someone who
wanted me to buy a subscription to a newspaper called
The Militant. 1s this what it's all coming to? To win this
war for freedom, we must overcome evils by using our
brains, not by becoming militants.

Even after ‘a personal inspection of the devastation
caused-by the earthquakes that ravished Mexico City last
month, it is difficult for me to fathom the extent of

human misery they sowed. The massive tremors *

destroyed hundreds of buildings, leaving in their wake
more than 5500 dead, over .8000 wounded, many

thousands missing, and hundreds of thousands homeless,

unemployed, or.both. Despite the 50,000 volunteers and
government laborers working around the clock to save
many victims as possible, the stench of human bodies
decomposing hung heavily over the most affected areas in
a matter of days, Hundreds left without homes or belong-
ings” stood vigil by the remnants of their old
neighborhoods, others, too dazed to make sense of their
shattered lives. were led to private and were led to private
and pilblic shelters. Some, traumatized by the over-
whelming nature of their personal loss, began to wander
aimlessly around the city, with family in tow, in the midst
of ambulances, volunteer emergency. vehicles, and
curious sightseers.

‘The quakes hit the poor arid the middle class. But those
with fewer résources suffered and will suffer more and
longer. Many of the poor were either unemployed or had
marginal or casual employment, neither of which can
yeild a paycheck, however delayed, on the next payday.
‘The indigent are particularly likely to be without ade-
quate potable water, as the long lines at the public faucets
and distribution trucks in less affluent areas make clear.
And the poor, lacking in insurance, savings,, education,
mobility, or networks will be left with only basic govern-
ment assistance for the long and difficult process of put
ting their lives back in order. Nonetheless, however much
they may be missing in material means, the needy ex-
hibited immense human resources. They have been on the
front lines of the volunteer brigades and provided much
of the leadership needed in the first days of the chao:
Their strong senise of rootedness in their neighborhoods
may yet prevail over government attempts, already pre-

mobilization to come, many of the neighborhood or-

jealously guarded by poor local mothers, wlio, not infre-
quently, have refused to permit government officials to

‘The anticipated cost of reconstruction could reach one
billion dollars, much of which will have to be provided by
foreign governments and banking institutions. This large
sum will be needed to rebuild hospitals, public housing,
and sources of employment; in the meantime, we need to
keep in mind the real human suffering taking place right
now and our capacity to relieve some of it immediately.
Mexico is currently responding to the emergency with all
the resources at its disposal; however, money for the
myriad, immediate necessities to keep body and soul
together is sorely needed. Financial assistance is required
{for short and long term shelters to be built before the cold
winter nights begin.

Money is also needed to assist in the reconstruction of
neighborhoods; to help in the difficult task of reuniting
lost children and family members; to provide special care
for children, the elderly, and the destitute; and to supple-
ment the work of volunteers working to save, mend and
protect the lives of thotisands of traumatized Mexicans.

With the change in-New York's alcohol purchase age
rapidly approaching, all of us in the marginal age bracket
should remember to be responsible drinkers if, despite the
law, we decide to continue to drink, For the last five
years, due largely to increased alcohol awareness and
education, less than one percent of New York state’s 18 to

1-year-olds have been involved in alcohol related ac-

idents per year.

~ Perhaps the prohibition of alcohol purchases by legal
adults under 21 is not the best way to handlé the problem
created by drunk drivers, but the overall purpose of this
Jaw is invariably a worthy one: the reduction of alcohol
related fatalities. As the victim of a drunk driver , I speak
‘with personal knowledge of the devastating effect a drunk.
driver can have not only on himself, gut on passengers
and/or other motorists as well.

With public attention. presently focused on student
rights and what can be done to protect them, it is im-
perative that each of us do every thing possible to protect
our rights now. But also, it is equally imperative that if
we decide to drink, we do it with the responsibility that we
claim to deserve and try so vehemently to protect.

Hockey kudos

To the Editor:

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Marc
Berman, ASP Sports Editor, for his terrific article on the
accomplishments of the Ice Hockey Team. We've come a
long way in a short-time and contributions such as his
cover the past two years should never go unrecognized,

‘The article, however, neglected to mention an in-
dividual who, with others, is directly responsible for the
success and great strides of this team on and off the ice,
He is Charter-member, Vice-President and team captain,
Rich Diem, In our organization he has spannéd the levels
of enthusiasm from poster pinning and meeting organiz-
ing to being the catalyst during team work-outs. He
man who defines the terins team player and leader and his
acconiplishments and contributions should never go
unrecognized or unrewarded,

‘Thanks so much, Rich, on behalf of the entire Albany
State Ice Hockey Team, and here’s looking forward to a

very successful season.

Not an issue

To the Editor:

There are times when delicate situations seem to be
unapproachable, but I have no reservations approaching
this situation. I am referring to, perhaps the most eye-
opening tragedy to strike SUNY, the disappearance of
Karen Wilson,

‘On March 27,1985 there was a handful of people who
had forgotten the entire world and had only one question
on their minds: “What happened to Karen?"" Six months
later, we still don’t know, but we haven't forgotten
Karen. .

This is what provokes my letter. It seems that some
people are confused about Karen's situation, 1 would

irst, there was Karen then there was
the disappearance of Karen.

There is quite a difference between the aforemention-
ed. On the one hand there is Karen Wilson the person,
On the other, there is Karen Wilson the issue.

I respectfully request that people, and organization, re-
main consciously aware of this differentiation. ‘It may
be too late for Karen Wilson, but it’s not too late for
you" (October 1 ASP ) is a prime exemple of my
‘objection,

I don’t make this request as ‘‘Karen's RA” nor do I
make this request as “the guy who lives across the hall.””
I make this request.as a very close friend who remembers
Karen as Karen, and as someone who refers to as such,
not a political issue,

Six months ago Karen was a SUNY student, not a
SUNY issue.

— Rich Cantwell

Defends rally

To the Editor:

I would like to respond to a letter that appeared in the
October 1, 1985 issue of the ASP, by Mr. Nicholas Green,
Mr. Green, it seems, was greatly perturbed by the fact
that his Astromomy Club meeting on September 23, 1985
was interrupted by protest for SUNY divestment held
outside the Campus Center. Mr."Green in his letter im-
plied that the protest was a pep rally of misguided ig-
noramuses, whose only accomplishment was to drown
Out the beautiful music of the spheres being discussed in
the Physics Building,

That someone would have the audacity, even in his
most intimate, unspoken thoughts, to equate a meeting of
the Astromomy Club, during which members were in-
structed on how to use a telescope, with a protest calling
for the end of funding the most blatantly racist govern-
ment of the century is beyond me. The disfunctioning of a
twisted mind is something I shall leave to the Psychology
majors to ponder.

‘Those of us out on the podium that night, as well as

those of us who stood in the rain outside of SUNY Cen-
tral the next morning were voicing our ‘‘single opinion"
because in this country, we can. The people of South
Africa are murdered everyday at athe hands of a govern-
ment funded by American dollars — our American
dollars. If we feel this is wrong we have the right to say

50, whether it disturbs the Astronomy Club or not. If it
were not for protestors throughout history like the ones at
SUNY, asinine comments like Mr.Green’s could not be
voiced in this country without someone's head getting
bashed in with a stick.

It is very easy for people, perhaps, to turn their heads
from places in the world like South Africa and instead to
look up at the stars. When the sky comes crashing down
fon them one day, it won't be because of anything they
ever studied in astronomy.

‘We might all be dust one day, as Mr, Green suggests,
and those stars might still be up there, but without these

ort-lived"’ protests now, they won't be looking down
on such a pretty world,

‘The Music Department sponsors six different ensembles.

Ensembles right on key when
students seek musical outlets

By Caryn Miske
STAFE WRITER

“Join a music department
ensemble’’ read the most recent
leaflet. plastered across the
podium and although most
students have seen the signs,
many are probably unsure about
what comprises an ensemble,

The music department sponsors
six different ensembles, and while
students can get credit for par-
ticipating, Prof. David Janower,
who runs both the University
Chorale and Chamber Singers,
pointed out, ‘‘a large majority of
the students join the ensembles
without receiving credit.""

He went on to discuss the dif-
ferences between the two choral
ensembles he organizes. “Any
university should provide a place
where students, regardless of
talent, cn get together and sing,””
said Janower. This function is
provided by the University
Chorale, which has 100 members
and does not base membership on
auditions.

“As long as one attends the
two meetings per week, you're
in,” commented Janower, The
ensemble is comprised of
students, faculty, staff and
townspeople and presents two on
campus concerts per year.

The Chamber Singers, on the
other hand, is a select group of
students who perform while tour-
ing, presenting 15 to 20 concerts
per year, Students must audition
in order to gain membership,
which enables the group to re-
main small, Janower said. Ap-
proximately 20 students belong,
and as Janower pointed out, ‘We
sing without accompaniement, so
its beneficial for the group to be
small and portable and therefore
cheap to transport.”*

The Chamber Singers not only
present their services for official
university and state functions, but
this year will present a concert in
Massachusetts and offer their
talents to nursing homes and
hospitals. The biggest production
is their Christmas show, which
features a Madrigal Dinner and is
presented with Renaissance

scenery, costume and dance in the
Campus Center Ballroom,

The Chamber Singers, as a
group, are often paid for their
performances, Janower said,
although they do present some

concerts free of charge. Since the,

University Music Department has
an insufficient budget 'to” fully
fund the ensemble, any monies
made by the groups are used for
expenses, Janower added.
Members also run a coffee shop
which sells donuts and candy b:

to raise extra money.

Jennifer Sgueglia, a sophomore
in the Chamber Singers, explain-
ed, ‘1 joined the group: because I
enjoy singing and like the positive
atmosphere one has in a small
ensemble,” Contrary to popular
belief, not everyone in the ensem-
ble is a music major. Sgueglia is a
prospective business majorwho,
when asked is all the hard work
was worth one credit, replied,
“No. We meet twice a week for
one hour and forty minutes, Then
1 still have to practice on my own
from three to five hours a week.
You really have to enjoy making
music, I do it for enjoyment and
enrichment."

Penni Newman, a junior, has
been interested in singing since
high school. “It must become se-
cond nature for the group to
work together as a whole,” she
said. Another student humorous-
ly added, “it’s a superb contrast
to the rigors of academics, and it
sure beats tenni

The Symphonic Band, under
the direction of Professor Henry
Carr, does not require auditions
and has approximately 50
members. They present four on-
campus concerts a year. Con-
versely, the University Communi-
ty Orchestra, whictr is composed
of both students and community
members is audition only.

However, director Nathan Got-
tschalk emphasized, ‘We are
always looking for new par-
ticipants, There. are many
students who are not music ma~
jors but have been well trained in
playing an instrument. This gives
students an opportunity to keep

up their talent.”

The 50 members present two
performances each semester, with
the first concert scheduled for Oc-
tober 29 at 8:00 in the Main
theatre in the Performing Arts
Center. It will be an all Russian
performance, presented in con-
junction with the University
Chorale,

In the past, a small group from
the Orchestra has also played for
theatre productions on campus.

The University Percussion
Ensemble, directed by Richard
Albagli, is the most exotic and in-
novative of the ensembles.
Albagli is a graduate of
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
(RPI), Eastman and is also the
Principal Percussionist. of the
Albany Symphony.

Albagli explained that percus-
sion instruments produce sound
by striking two objects together,
and said there is a limitless range
of timbres since one can ‘use
anything. from flower. pots and
iron pipes to the more conven-
tional drums and xylophone. The
music tends to be avante garde
and is capable of being both
melodic and rythmic, he added.

The ensemble has 10 members
and gives three major perfor-
mances a year. In addition, the
touring ensemble plays at both
elementary and high schools.

A third performing group is the
University Rag-Time Mallet
Ensemble, which plays the music
of Scott Joplin and songs from
shows like Star Wars, Music
Man, and West Side Story.

Lastly, the University Jazz
Ensemble is directed by Professor
Ray Rettig, a noted area jazz
musician who graduated from
Berkley College of Music in 1976.
The ensemble, which Rettig form-

* ed six years ago, has performed

for the governor, at the Conven-
tion Center at the Empire Plaza
and at various nightclubs.

Rettig commented, ‘We'll play
anywhere — we're open to sug-
gestion." Also, towards the end
of the semester they will play at
the Rathskellar on Monday or
Thursday nights, a

Words of wisdom for judicial system violators

By Mark Mishler

Last week’s column provided a
brief overview of SUNYA’s on-
campus judicial system, This arti-
cle presents more detait regarding
the procedures and offers advice
for students who find themselves
unwilling participants in the pro-
cess. The views expressed here are
hot necessarily those of the
university +
administration. It’s

dent Guidelines Law
(Copies are available in AD-129)
and arrive at their own conclu-
sions. Keep in mind that every
+situation is unique and that this
article is not a substitute for in-
dividual legal advice.

If Lam accused of violating a
campus rule, can I be arrested as
well as referred?

Yes. If your alleged misconduct
violates a crimirial law as well as a
university rule, you can be both
arrested and referred. The pro-
cedures are totally separate.

I I am accused of academic
dishonesty, can I be penalized by
my professor as well as referred?

Yes. Your professor can alter
your grade in response to his or
her belief that you cheated and
you can be referred for the same
alleged act of academic dishones-
ty. The procedures are separate.
This means that the results will
not necessarily be consistent, i.e.,
you might be found innocent of
‘academic dishonesty at a judicial
board hearing but your professor
might still fail you based on his or

ed by the: particular. academic

Are all types of disciplinary
sanctions the university imposes

Guldelines?

No, Several university-imposed
sanctions are not included in the
“Student Guidelines” and the
procedural protections afforded

According to the university, you
have no right to a hearing or to be
notified that the university
believes you owe them money
before the university places a hold
‘on your records.

The procedures in the
“‘Guidelines"? also do not cover
“administrative”” removals from
residence halls. The university
claims the right to reassign rooms
or to’ remove a student from a
dorm for ‘administrative’
reasons. Even if the reassignment
is directly in response to alleged
misconduct on your part, you do
not have the right to a hearing or
advance notice of the charges.
Finally, as mentioned above,
academic decisions are not
governed by the procedures in the
“Guidelines,” even if the decision
is a penalty for alleged

As described in last week's arti-

‘This past Sunday, the Gover-
ning Board of the Tri-State
College Bowling Conference
voted unanimously to accept a
‘men’s and women’s team from
SUNYA as full participating
teams for the 1985-86 season.

The decision is a culmination
of the three-year effort by the
Bowling Club to gain entrance
into the only recognized inter-
collegiate bowling league in the
vicinity of the Capital District.’

In addition to admittance in-
to the conference, Albany State
will host one of the eight league
tournaments. The tournament
is tentatively set for Sunday,
November 17 and it will be held

at an outside bowling center in
the Albany area, Campus
Lanes, the 12-lane on-campus
bowling center, cannot told
the ten men’s teams and five
‘women’s teams.

‘The men’s squad consists of
six bowlers, while the women
have four players bowling each
game. Each tournament con-
sists of six games, three in the
team event and three doubles
games. The competing teams
can win trophies for the two in-
dividual, doubles, and team
events of each tournament,
while the toyrnament scores
also count toward team
standings.

comfortable than he has in weeks.

“He's not 100 percent, but he’s
getting his speed back,” said
Ford, ‘He hasn't even hit 100
yards yet in three games, and he's
a 1000-yard rusher.””

To beat the Chiefs, the Danes
must contain Brian Timbrook, a
quarterback with blazing speed
and a very quick release, said
Ford, Other key players include
6'4", 225 Ib. tight end Steve
Smith and Stacy Eason, a
dangerous kickoff and punt
returner.

“We need to get a win to get

some confidence back,” said
DeLong. ‘We need to win
against a tough opponent, and
any team that can go with Ithaca
15-10 is a good team.”

Perhaps the biggest difference
between the tedm that faced
Ithaca three weeks ago and the
team that the Chiefs will play
Saturday is the play of Milano.

Coming off a year layoff,
Milano was rusty against the
Bombers. But he looked like the
signal-caller of old against RPI
and Brockport, moving the team
with authority.

STAFE WRITER

The Albany State women’s cross coun-
try teams’ record dropped to 9-4-1 after
suffering a loss on Tuesday to a strong
Smith College team.

In what was a highly contested battle
between the two 1984 NCAA Division 111
qualifying teams, host Smith College com-
piled 23 points, Albany 36, and Mount
Holyoke College 73. Oneonta, due to in-
adequate numbers did not score.

The 2.95 mile course is ‘‘very challeng-
ing’* according to Albany's head coach
Ron White. White added that “this is a
completely different Smith team than last
year's.” During the 1984 season, Albany
beat Smith at the Easterns, but lost to
them in Ohio at the NCAA's. The two
teams will meet up again in October at the
Easterns.

Co-captain Karen DeFeo placed first for
Albany and second overall with a time of
19:27. Teammate Kim Petrichord, running

twenty seconds behind DeFeo, placed third
overall. Smith took the next five spots.
Sophomore Roseanne Smith, ‘“‘runner of
the meet,” was a solid ninth. Kitty
Sullivan was tenth followed by Freshman
Marylou Webster. *

‘The Danes continue to be plagued by in-
juries. “It was a disappointment in know-
ing we have the runners to beat that type of
Smith team,”* White said adding, ‘“We did
our best, I felt it was a challenging course
with some of the best footing I've ever
seen,””

‘The quadrangular meet Tuesday marked
the end of dual-meet competition. The rest
of the meets on the agenda are
invitationals.

Saturday, the Danes will compete in the
LeMoyne Invitational in Syracuse, The
region will come together for the first time
over a demanding course. This should be
an indication to the Albany team of what’s
to come. Oo

Albany State

Dane booters nipped by Union 2-1

By Cathy Errig
STAFF WRITER

Going. into Wednesday's home game

against Union College, a team ranked se-
cond in New York State and eighth na-
tionally, the expectations of the Albany
State men’s soccer team were mixed.

“We didn’t quite have the intensity, 1
think going into the-game we expected to
lose,”* said midfielder Warren Manners.
“What was definitely in our minds was the
fact that Union defeated Cortland 6-1, the
same score Cortland beat us by on
Saturday.”

However, also in the Danes’ minds was
the result of last years’ game, in. which
Union had defeated Albany in the last
minute of the game.

“That gives us incentive,” said head
zoach Bob Schieffelin. ‘We're going into
the game with nothing to lose.”?

The result of this mixed attitude was a
2-1 Albany loss, a tough loss for the Danes
to accept, who led through most of the
game,

“We had a different strategy going into
this game,” said co-captain Carl loos.
“Against Cortland, we had tried to run
with them, which didn’t work because they
were so much faster and better condition-
ed. For this game, we boxed in our own
defensive side and let Union come to us."”

“We let them get to our midfield line,
letting Union have their own half, We'd let
them get all bunched-up, then we'd try to
get the ball over the bunch,” said senior
defenseman Frantz Michel.

This is what happened 20:55 into the

Michel executed a long pass to
in Tihan Presbie for the game's
first goal
‘han beats out his defender,” said
Ios, ‘99 times out of 100 the ball will go
in. His play inspires the whole team."*

Both Union goals were scored in the se-

cond half of the game. At 69:50 from the

HOWARD TYGAR UPS.

Midfielder Warren Manners plays the ball against Union. The Danes lost 2-

first kickoff, Union’s Bob Crandall scored
indirectly on a free kick.

“That goal was scored result of
momentary confusion," said Michel,
“One man was unmarked, someone didn’t
stay with him, and there was confusion as
to who was supposed to be where.””

The second Union goal was scored at
72:32 by Howie Friedler. Albany made
three shots on the Union goal, versus
Union's 24, and Dane goalie Marc Cohen
made 13 saves against one “for Union's
John LaDuke.

““We were the team we're capable of be-

ing out there,"* said loos. “It was a big
change since Saturday, a big improvement.
I guess if I keep saying we're getting better
in every game I'll make us sound like we're
ready to beat Clemson soon, but we are
improving.”

“What we need to win is to play a little
harder, with a little extra effort,” said
Michel, ‘We played well out there, but we
let down for a few seconds.""

The Danes’ next game is Saturday, at
Potsdam. The next home contest will be
Monday against Siena, at 3:30p.m.

Mets drop two

after 4-3 defeat

S. Louis
(AP) The St. Louis Cardinals have been

After watching a 10-inning shutout
effort wasted and after watching a four-
game lead in the National League East
with a week to play dwindle to a one-
game edge, the Cardinals were in no
mood to celebrate after they finally beat
the New York Mets 4-3 Thursday night.
“We can’t have a letdown after this,"
winning pitcher Danny Cox said. “We
still have got to beat the Cubs.

with a two-run single in the fourth inn-

The Mets had 13 hits and stranded 10
base runners against five St. Louis pit-
chers, but most of the time New York
couldn't get a hit when it counted,

“It's a game you'll look at and say,
‘If this happened . . . if we'd made this,
play . . ." but it’s baseball,” said Mets
first baseman Keith Hernandez, who
had five hits, "We had some breaks the
first two games."”

Coleman had just two hits in his
previous 20 at-bats going into the game,
but he came through with three in the
finale of the three-game seri

Cox, 18-9, allowed nine hits in six inn-
ings, but limited the Mets to two runs.
Loser Rick Aguilera, 10-7, also gave up
nine hits in six innings. a

quarterbacks, Dane quarterback
Mike Milano, who missed last
year’s contest, is looking forward
to. deciphering Springfield's
defense.

“Their defense is more com-
plex than Ithaca’s,"” said Milano,
“But it’s just a matter of
recognizing, the defense and ex-
ecuting against it, I think our of-
fense runs well against that type
of defense,"

Chief Head Coach Mike
DeLong said one of the keys to

ay.

“He's a hell of a player," said
DeLong. “As a trigger-man on
the wishbone, he’s perfect. He
has excellent feet, quick reflexes
and great vision — he’s perfect
for that type of offense."*

Springfield's record is a decep-
tive 0-2; their other loss was
against American International,
another tough opponent. The
Chiefs are an inexperienced team,
something that was apparent
against AIC, according to
DeLong.

DeLong. “Against AIC, we were
not a very good team at all. But
‘on defense, we grew up quickly
against Southern Connecticut.
Those guys are simply at a dif-
ferent level; you guys will see next
week,”

Southecn Connecticut,
Albany’s opponent next week,
will not remind anyone of RPI,
Brockport, of even Springfield,
And after Southern Connecticut,
the schedule doesn't get_ much
easier. Upcoming opponents in-

schools.

“Coach Ford has been saying
the Pop Warner games are over,””
said Milano. “Every game here
on in, we're going to have our
hands full. If we can get past Spr-
ingfield, we've got a good chance
against Southern: Connecticut.”*

The Danes are already at a
disadvantage against the Chiefs,
thanks to an ill-fated ‘Brockport
bus that moved last week's game
a day ahead to Sunday. ‘That
means one less day to recover
from injuries, and one less day to
prepare for Saturday's game.

“Having one less day does
make a difference,’’ said
DeLong. ‘The day of rest on
Sunday is important, anid the one
day less of preparation didn’t
help Coach Ford much. As a
coach, I would not like that.”

Ford doesn’t see the one less
day as a ‘major problem.” He
didn’t have a chance to go over
the films, but he didn't have to.
He saw last week's game
firsthand along with about eight
of his coaches,

“They're not a great football
team," said Ford, “But Southern
Connecticut is awesome, and they
only lost 16-7.""

Against Brockport, no one
played more than one half of
football, giving the starters a
breather. Fullback Dave Soldini
sat out the entire game to rest his
injured ribs, and will play with a
flak jacket this Saturday.

Soldini practiced with the pro-
tective jacket for the first time on

defensive formations, in an at- beating the Danes was to contain

We'll be lucky to go 8-1, maybe 7-2."

RPI may be the Danes" last match until
the opening of the SUNYACS. They are
trying to reschedule the University of
Massachusetts for Wednesday and
reschedule Tuesday's University of Ver-
mont game for the following week to play
them after the SUNYACS.

Five out of six Albany singles players
swept Siena in straight sets. David
Grossman, number one singles for the
Danes, bei a's David Barr 6-3, 6-3.
At second singles, Albany's Tom Schnitz
won a big match against Jim Morrissui
7-6, 6-1, Morrissui previously played at
number one and in the past had beaten
David Ulrich, a former first singles player
for Albany,

“For Tom to beat Morissul was a very
good win,” said Lewis, “Grossman had a

nice win, It was one of his better matches
this year

“I'm starting to hit the ball a little bet-
ter," said Grossman, “I played better
compared to how I've been playing, but
1m not playing as well as I've played in the
past.”

He continued, “My problem is that 1
haven't beaten anyone I'm not supposed
to beat. 1 go into some games figuring I've
got a 50-50 chance, maybe I'm even an
underdog a little in some of them. Those
are the one I have to win."*

In other singles action, Albany's third
player, Jay Bisenberg was given a bit of
trouble by Siena’s Art Triosi. After winn-

ig the first set 6-3, Eisenberg let a 5-3 lead

ip out of his hands in the second set, los-

ig in a tiebreaker 7-6. He came back and
took the final set 6-3, Dave Zobler,
number four singles for the Danes, over-
whelmed Bob McLette in two-sets by the
identical score of 6-1,

“1 played really well against Siena," said
Zobler. ‘It was my easiest match of the

In a similar game, Mike Dermansky, at
fifth singles for Albany, easily defeated
David Johnson 6-2, 6-2. Finishing out the
top six, freshman Bob Siracuse beat Bob

“Bob's was as interesting match," said
Lewis. “He lost the first three games then
Went on and won the next twelve straight

After already clinching the match they
took all three double contests. Grossman
and Schmitz beat Barr and Morrissui 8-2,
Gerber, in one of his few appearances this
season due to an injury, teamed up with
Siracuse at second doubles, winning 10-1,
In third doubles action, Mark Singer and
Steve Greenberg from Albany came out on
top, 6-4, 6-3.

“As a total team we were favored to win
against Siena," said Grossman, “Siena is
weak at the bottom, but their top four
played good matches. The win was one
more in preparation of the SUNYACS."

Eisenberg, the team captain, said, “We
heard Siena was greatly improved. In our
huddle before the game the coach told us,
‘We don’t lase to local teams.’ It was a
classic line from him and everybody on the
team was into that,

added Eisenberg. “It’s always nice to get a

WINGS

he first time I tried a Buffalo-style chicken wing, I was an unsuspecting

freshman. That is, I did not suspect that chicken wings, which I had former-

ly associated with family barbeques, could be so unlike any recognizable
form of food, | managed to get a hot wing about four inches from my face, when
the fumes wafted into my brain and temporarily paralyzed the motion of the
hand with the approaching wing. I had to be tough. There were juniors wat-
ching. I forced the wing closer and burned a hole in my lip.

Many people may have had similar first time wing-eating experiences, The
trick is to keep trying until you're convinced that you actually like wings. When
ordered with a pitcher of beer, all wings seem delicious. But then again, a glazy-
eyed maniac woofing down wings with burned taste buds is not a reliable
culinary expert.

That's why the Aspects staff took on the task of going out and having lots of
wings. We want you to be well informed wing eaters. It wasn’t for the fun of be-
ing assigned to drink a pitcher of beer and eat wings with friends that the staff
did this, It was for the sake of public knowledge and cultural awareness,

If you're one of the many reckless, uninformed wing eaters, read this article,

Then wing it.

Last week I was consoling a friend as she gushed out her latest Men are Slime:
story. Thesé tales are commonly related among women after unpleasant dating
experiences. They all begin with the declaration, “Men are slime.” As I tried to
comfort her, a gorgeous bodybuilder in sweats slinked by, and her tears rolled
back up her cheeks and retracted into her eyes. “It’s love,” she sighed. “He's the
cone. He's too cute to be slime.”

This incident prompted me to investigate the validity of the accusation that
men are slime. | asked questions, observed strangers and friends, and followed
the progression of some new felationships. With the results of my study, I
developed the Slime Scale. On the far right is a category called “Men are saints
and a lot more considerate than anyone has ever suspected.” The- other end of
the scale is labelled “Men are sub-slime.” ;

The men on the right end of the scale displayed true respect for people in
general and concern bordering on paranoia about how to act with a date: They
were of the “friends first and foremost” school of dating. Several claimed to be
afraid to offend a first date by a casual arm around her shoulder or a bold at-
tempt at a goodnight kiss. The females present at these discussions found them
very refreshing, although many agreed that if a date was this cautious, they’d
assume that they had very serious body odor. Or worse.

One rightist nice guy that | know likes to walk his friends home, to class, ot
even to a soda machine at any time of the day or night. He attributés'this to an
ordinary concern for safety. I call it extraordinary unsliminess. I always feel like
I should walk him back after he walks me somewhere. But then he'd walk me
back. And so on. : :

On the left side of the Slime Scale are beasts who sense tender prey, go in for
the kill, and then slither away, leaving a trail of green ooze in their paths. After
that first date (which is, by design, the last date), they hide behind pillars and
dart into buildings to avoid facing their victims. Soon, they can never come out
in daylight. It’s too risky. These are the worms who convince women that
dating is just not worth getting slimed.

The varied results of this aspeculation reveal that it is not valid to categorize
men as slime. As with any group of people, they must be placed on the Slime
Scale as individuals. (Yes, even women can fit on the Slime Scale, from “saintly”
all the way down to “sub-slime.”) Some people-are honestly inspiring in their
ideals. Others inspire me to carry a purse size bottle of slime cleaner at all times

in case I see a line of green ooze on the ground. The essential fact to remember
is that slime washes away; nice guys don’t.

Blot out, correct, insert, refine,

Enlarge, diminish, interline:

Be mindful when invention fails,

To scratch your head and bite your nails.

‘After Hours is about a lonely guy named
Johin (Griffin Dunne) who decides he can’t
take another night alone in his small’ mid-
town apartment, To escape, he goes to an
almost empty coffee shop, sits at a table by

imself, and reads Miller's Tropic of
Capricorn, Across from him sits a girl who
is also a Miller fan, and she admits this to
him as he’s reading. They have a cup of
coffee together, talk for a while, and work
their. way towards exchanging phone
numbers, John goes back to his apartment,
waits a little while, calls her up, and makes
a date. He then takes a cab to SoHo. That's
his first mistake. What follows are a series
cof mishaps that lead him to the conclusion
that New York at njght is nothing but a
nightmare. He learns that the subway fare
has been raised, gets soaked to the bone in
a rainstorm, becomes a burglary suspect,
discovers the remains of a suicide victim,
nearly loses his hair in a "Mohawks Only”
nightclub, and is turned into a plaster of
paris sculpture. It's definitely not an even:
ing in Paradise. :

But for all it’s worth, it’s the people, not
the situations he encounters, that convince
him that he’s not cut out for the New York
nightlife. The girl he originally meets in the
coffee shop (Rosanne Arquette) turns out
to be recovering from a divorce, the
grounds for which were the fact that her
husband, a Wizard of Oz fanatic, could not
have sexual intercourse without shouting,
“Surrender, Dorothy” all the way through
the act. Her roommate (Linda Fiorentino)
has a hobby of making erotic sculptures,
but makes her living selling handmade
plaster of paris bagel and cream cheese
paperweights’ He also crosses paths with a
manic depressive anarchist (Teri Garr), a
psychotic ice cream vendor (Catherine
O'Hara), and an introverted barfly (Verna
Bloom). By 6:00 the next morning, John is
not a well man.

I really felt for this pathetic’ character.
And for all the pathetic characters in this
movie. And what's more, for all the
pathetic characters that dwell in today’s
New York City. This film is a comedy, and
it did make the audience laugh. I was in
hysterics, but at the same time I felt a cer-
tain fear of dissatisfaction, knowing that
while there's probably something better
cout there, there’s definitely going to be
something a lot worse. No character in any
situation ever proved this to me better than
John did in his lurid “After Hours” struggle

to return to his dull mid-town apartment,
and his dull mid-town life.

The plot, or more appropriately, the se-
quence of events, seems a bit bizarre, and
following it all the way may be a task of
the devil, But, Director Martin Scorcese,
whose Mean Streets (1973) was a different
attempt at scaring the viewer away from ci-
ty life, seems less concerned with the plot
than with the atmosphere it creates. He
thrusts the viewer into the city-scape for
ninety or so minutes, and.then challenges
him or her to come out of it thinking of
New York as “nirvana,” or even as a great
place to visit, This film can make a person
go to sleep at night and dream about the ci-
ty as the netherworld, where anything can
happen, and the craziest things usually do.

actors play the parts that they're given to

original. His quirky, short-haired,

While last year's Larkfest rolled con-
spiratorily on, a few adventurous souls
were treated to Pig's first ever American
concert (at the E.B.A. Chapterhouse), His
total performance concept was so enthrall-
ing that three more shows were hastily ar-

to his home town of St. Albans, Heitford-

repaid with a cassette simply titled Clive

As college radio began pushing the record,

little pockets of Pigmania broke out.

The album is a startling compilation of
tracks recorded in band arrangements rang-
ing from military marches to frenetic dubs.

My roommate woke up in a cold sweat. A primal utterance
escaped his lips. Then, a quick dash to the bathroom. Relieved of
what he described as a ‘blue jet of noxious, gaseous flame,” he
slithered into bed, leaving the unpleasant bodily contortions
behind, so to speak. And as I lay in bed, my roommate's painfully
pinioned face indicated one very important thing to me — any
chicken wings that can make you feel that bad in the morning can’t
have been anything but great the night before,

How often have we awoken only to have no memory of the
previous evening's feast? Ask your roommates what they had for
dinner last night. They can’t remember, can they? Well, not only
can my roommate tell me what he ate last night, but I can usually
make a pretty good guess just from being near him. With Hurley's
wings, the whole dorm has a pretty good idea as well.

The previous evening, I ventured to Hurley's with three hall

ed prompt service from a most kind and attractive

Sherrie. We ordered the obligatory pitcher of Bud and

wings by the ten. For Stephen, my expressive roommate, the nod

went to mild. For Samuel J.M. Murray, (Sam the Man), hot was

preferred. For Susan, either a vegetarian or a weakling, french fries
were the order. This reporter opted for three-alarm wings,

1 spread some Noxema on my virgin tongue and began consum-

wet fist. These were hot stuff. I quickly evacuated all taste buds in-
capable of the hot sizzle, ‘Then it occured to me that these plump
little things actually had more than temperature to them, and that,
in fact, | enjoyed them. I was happy. My sinuses were ecstatic.

‘Samuel was having a slightly more intense time of it. Actually,
this was not a good evening for him to be partaking in the flaming
foul, for a deep and villainous sore of unknown origin had festered
within his fleshy cheek, causing mass hysteria among his more sen-
sitive nerve cells. However, like a trooper, Sam is a tender man
cating a tough chicken. He maintained his native-born British wit,
and even uttered the humorous, although unoriginal comment,

‘Think of all the wheel chairs they have to manufacture for those
poor chickens.”

Sherrie, the waitress, was more than helpful, first, as the bearer
‘of wings and then'as the purveyor of key World Almanac-type
chicken wing information, For example, Hurley's (and probably
‘other wing establishments) maintains their wings by the case. On
any given evening, they will prepare and sell five cases of wings of
alternating temperatures and flavors. There are 500 wings toa case.
That's a lot of wings, man.

We each ordered a second serving, except Susan, of course. I
asked Sherrie if there was anything hotter than three-alarm, as I
love spicy food. My, what a fool I was. She delivered, | suppose,
“ultra three-alarmers.”” If I remember correctly, they were tasty.
You see, my tongue went on strike. I couldn't really taste the
wings. However, since the previous order was so very tasty indeed,
‘one may assume that the ultra-threes were good as well.

Across the Street Pub

1 received a call on Thursday. My mission, should | choose to ac-
cept it, was to get the real scoop on the infamous wings at the hot
spot known as Across the Street Pub. I decided 1 was equal to the
task. So I got together a small but efficient staff, quickly briefed
them on the assignment, and we were on our way.

Across the Street Pub is located at 1238 Western Avenue, and
like the name says, is directly across the street from the uptown
campus. This is a big plus since it eliminates the need to drive. We
made our visit on a Monday evening at about 11 pm. There were
many free tables, something you will definitely not find on a
weekend or a night when a good game is on TV. In general,
though, the place is never so crowded that you are fighting the per-
son next to you for a spot to stand, It is not a stand up, ‘mingling’
type of bar. It is meant to be a place to sit and talk with a group of
friends and get something to eat and drink,

The atmosphere was described by my group as “homey.” The
walls are done in orange and brown earth tones and are decorated
with simple pictures, ft is dimly lit by colorful lamps. The old-
fashioned fans on the ceiling add a nice touch. The music is basic
rock and roll and is kept at a volume so you don’t have to scream
to be heard. Basically a clear, comfortable setting.

The waitress came over immediately. She was polite and friend-
ly, as U've found most of the help there is, We ordered a pitcher of
beer and one order of hot and one order of mild wings.

Our food was served in about 12 minutes, but it can sometimes
take as long as 20 minutes on a crowded night. An order of wings
costs $2.75 and comes with 10 wings, four pieces of celery and a
small container of bleu cheese. dressing. We thought this seemed
pretty fair, except maybe they could have been more generous with
the bleu cheese. We agreed the size and consistency of the wings
were good, They were all fairly meaty and not too dry. The hot
wings were, in our opinion, easily the better of the two. The sauce
was not too thick and was spicy enough to give them a strong
flavor but did not leave your mouth burning. The mild went
beyond mild. They were wimpy. There was no sauce at all on them,
What they were soaking in was grease. One member of my group

said they even left an aftertaste of grease in her mouth. A person at
the next table who said he always ordered the mild told me the trick
was to dump the wings in the bowl meant for the bones so they
could drain, That seemes to work pretty well, but I'm not sure it
would improve them enough to get me to order them,
n all, Across the Street Pub is a nice cozy place to just hang
‘out with friends and have a few drinks and get some food. No one
in my group said they would make a trip there specifically for the
wings, but three of the four of us said we'd probably order them if
we were there. People at other tables had different opinions. One
id he thought the sauce was the best around, and he came all
¢ for the wings. Another said the proximity to campus was a
bonus but complained the beer was too expensive. On our way out,
a member of my group summed up his thoughts, ‘They're better
than most I've had, but of course, I’m always drunk when i eat

them .. . -Marie Santacroce

Sutter’s

Tt was a late September afternoon. You know the type where the
eaves are just turning and the sun warms you just enough to sweat.
The mdod in my apartment was tentative. It had been a day of stu-

Despite being one of the more estatfished bars in Albany,
Washington Tavern (WT's) is a relative|newcomer to the wing

Future visits yielded some better efforts from the kitchen, but
they never approached the standard fare from Skipper’s. When
you go to those places, you go for the wings. At WT"s, ordering
wings can be an adventure.

Ina single order of ten wings ($2.50), there will inevitably be one
chicken part that almost resembles a whole(wing. It's about 90 per-
cent skin and 10 percent bones, and it could ruin your appetite if
you choose to eat it first.

The sauce doesn't vary that much from hot to mild; the end

“Several possibilities. Word has it he usually hangs out at
Hurley's, Harpo's, or Sutter’s Mill and Mining company. In-
vestigate him call me with the pertinent informa-
tion . . . please,” she said, with that seductive air in her voice.

Thung up. My first move was Sutter’s. I arrived at about 7:00.
Not bad for a Sunday night, I thought. Half filled. Pleasant at-
mosphere. At least this Wing guy had taste. I made my way to the
counter. The woman working gave me a sharp, cool stare. I said,
“Wing. Where can I find him?’” She replied, ““You came to the
right place fella. How many?” Puzzled, I answered, “I want it
all.” She said, ‘Sit tight. He'll be right out.” I was amazed at the
service. I had been prepared for a hassle. But instead I was going to
meet the big guy right away. I ordered a Mich Light and sat down.
The wood tables and jukebox music created the ideal atmosphere
for my confrontation with Wing.

She called my name and nodded. There he was in all his glory.
He was larger than I expected. His suit a savvy, reddish color. He
had those vegetables with him. He sat down at my table. I started
out by asking him what he was made of. He answered with a
mouthful of meat. The lights, bright when I had entered, began to
dim. The mood changed. It was becoming difficult to maintain

disappointment.

The bleu cheese is honest bleu cheese, not the garlic mix you get
at some other places. And a double order of wings comes with two
helpings of the white stuff, great for dipping the fresh sticks of
celery and carrots provided.

Getting wings at WT's was always a secondary thing; there were
always other priorities to take care of. But after the most recent
sampling of the wings, things might be changing.

Something was different right from the start. The wings were
uniformly large, and had a healthy red glow rather than a tired
brown look. The sauce was not as hot as desired, but it was satisfy-
ing nonetheless. Fluke or not, it was a welcome switch from the
tired, wrinkled wings that have come from WT’s kitchen for the

past several months.

Skippers Tavern

waitress at Skippers to give me the hottest wings they made.
“You want the death wings. Are you sure?”
| swallowed once and said, *Yes."”

Just not hot. When the waitress asked if they were hot enough, I
honestly replied, ‘*No."* She then explained away the situation tell-
ing me about the ‘new chef." As that hero of our times, Maxwell
Smart, would say, ‘Ah, yes - the old new chef routine.” Excuses,
excuses.

For your money ($4.75 for a double, $2.50 for a single) you do
receive plenty of carrots and celery, as well as thick, tasty bleu
cheese, But who cares? The wings weren't-hot. Period. The mild

wings my roommate, Marty, ordered were all barbecue sauce,

Just the sound of the word bothered me. Death. I’d asked the

Were they that hot? I'm writing this, aren't 1? They weren’t bad,

which may suit some tastes, but not mine. Mild should mean semi-
hot while death should mean death. Also, the chickens from which
my wings derived must have been Purdue rejects. The wings were
tiny, with little meat on them.

Perhaps the chef will learn truth in advertising, In the meantime,
the wings are acceptable. They have a grea: large screen TV, and
pitcher specials during,the week.

Skippers used to have the best wings, but (hose days are gone
now, Skippers hasn't changed in any other noticable ways, but
wings, hot deadly wings, were why I went out of my way to go
there. I'll still stumble there on occasion, but it won't be the same

Harpo’s

Harpo’s Pub is located on New Scotland Avenue, near Madison

Avenue. Harpo’s is a dimly-lit Pub with unfinished furniture. The
atmosphere is rather rustic, perhaps one could even call it ‘ruge-
ed.'" I felt as though this was the type of place one goes to get ham-
mered with a few friends and not for socializing. My friend Dave

t's the type of place I'd go to for atmosphere; it’s rugged
and relaxed. Besides, normal and/or average college kids hang out
here."

Harpo's boasts that its chicken wings are “Buffalo-style."” Jen-
nifer Manner thought that, even though she’s never been to Buf-
falo, Harpo's wings are what that city had in mind. Being a native
of Rochester, I assure you they are at least very close.

‘The sauce on the wings my friends ate was tangy enough, but not
thick like a barbecue sauce, Of course, that was fine with us,
because that way they weren't as messy as they might otherwise
have been. Harpo's chicken wing sauce gets an A-. As Dave put it,

‘They burn going in and they burn coming out — that way you get
to enjoy them twice..

‘Someone thought some of the chickens must have been starved.
‘As we evaluated the portions of wings at Harpo's, we discovered
that while there were some shaply legs, there were also a number of
scrawny ones. ‘I wish I had legs like that," said Marie. The por-

tions were very mediocre.

If you want to relax and enjoy many fine wings and much beer,
Harpo's is a good place to go. On a scale of one to ten, my friends
and I feel that Harpo’s wings are a solid 7. We also gave their

“Drink and Wing" specials a perfect 10.

The Lamp Post

The Lampost on a quiet Sunday evening. Rambo leaps from an outcropping onto
the giant screen, “‘eating food that would make a Billy Goat puke.”* Talk about hot
wings!

Commercial time. Heads turn, the inanimate, lazy faces of homo suburbus. In-
terests peak. They're comfortable enough to shrug off Sylvester Stallone, but not
enough to shrug off Sheri Redding, Lee lococca or the Pepsi Generation. Real people,
real people, wherefore art thou?

Single order hot, extra blue cheese. I've no pride when it comes to cholesterol, Or
hot foods. I was challenging the chef at Hurley's when everyone else thought life stop-
ped this side of Central Ave. When Hurley's had the greatest wings this town will ever
see. When there was still a distant hope I would graduate in four years. A seared and
seasoned palate, an elite veteran (no, I wasn't about to start shooting up the place),
always a step beyond the trends, it was tough to digest the thought of returning, or
condescending to, of all places, still undergraduated, to the black hole of the student
ghetto. The wings were hardly better.

There are four criteria for evaluating wings — in order of importance — taste, size,
heat and bleu cheese. To be fair, Post wings were strong in two and three, but came up
short in the ub-like-totally important number one, and turned in their worst perfor-
mance in number four.

‘The wings arrived steaming hot (thermally speaking), with an ample disposal bowl
for those ersatz wingers who don’t go for the bones, and a Wet-Nap device, Personal-
ly, U've always found one of the greatest pleasures of winging to be waking up the
morning after with the quite pungent remains of hot sauce ensconced in my
moustache and finger.nails, its ambiance with me throughout the fo'lowing two or
three days. That's what you get for being on the wrong side of Central Ave.

A quick dip of the left index finger into the bleu cheese (I'm a purist — no veggies)
and I was more than a tad chagrined by its soupy consistency and wimpy flavor.

When it came to size, however, these flappers were as macho as they come — a
bounty of hefty fowl. But its the eyes that lies and the tongue that tells — a near-
perfect level of spicy-hotness could not mask the telltale sign of banal wings — the
barbeque motif, dead giveaway for second-class wings. A great wing sauce fuses from
diverse elements a perfectly balanced totality that transcends its ingredients, hinting of
them all without reeking of any one, Post wings were barbeque all the way.

I bad farewell to Rambo, the Wet-Nap crowd, and nice-try wings. Since | was on
this side of town, I stopped in at Frank's Living Room for a real beer among real peo-
ple. No Wet-Naps, thank you.

Despite being one of the more estabjished bars in Albany,
Washington Tavern (WT's) is a relativeinewcomer to the wing
wars, adding them to their menu earlier this year. The first few
samplings indicated the bar should've stuck with pizza. The wings
tended to be small, and the sauce never was quite as hot as a fire
breathing wing enthusiast would want it (o be.

Future visits yielded some better efforts from the kitchen, but
they never approached the standard fare) from Skipper's. When
you go to those places, you go for the wings. At WT's, ordering
wings can be an adventure.

In a single order of ten wings ($2.50), there will inevitably be one
chicken part that almost resembles a whole|wing. It’s about 90 per-
cent skin and 10 percent bones, and it could ruin your appetite i
you choose to eat it first.

The sauce doesn’t vary that much from hot to mild; the end
result either smacks of vinegar or barbecue sauce, and the cooks
have very little concept of the torturous depths one’s tongue can
sink to. [f you like them ‘‘nuclear” or ‘“death,"" save yourself some

disappointment.

The bleu cheese is honest bleu cheese, not the garlic mix you get
at some other places. And a double order of wings comes with two
helpings of the white stuff, great for dipping the fresh sticks of
celery and carrots provided.

Getting wings at WT's was always a secondary thing; there were
always other priorities to take care of. Bul after the most recent
sampling of the wings, things might be changing.

Something was different right from the start. The wings were
uniformly large, and had a healthy red glow rather than a tired
brown look. The sauce was not as hot as desired, but it was satisfy-
ing nonetheless, Fluke or not, it was a welcome switch from the
tired, wrinkled wings that have come from W'T"s kitchen for the

past several months.

“Several possibilities. Word has it he usually hangs out at
Hurley's, Harpo’s, or Sutter's Mill and Mining company. In-
vestigate him and call me the pertinent informa-
tion . . . please,” she said, with that seductive air in her voice.

hung up, My first move was Sutter's. I arrived at about 7:00.
Not bad for a Sunday night, I thought. Half filled. Pleasant at-
mosphere. At least this Wing guy had taste. I made my way to the
counter. The woman working gave me a sharp, cool stare. I said,
“Wing, Where can 1 find him?” She replied, “You came to the
right place fella. How many?" Puzzled, I answered, “I want it
all."’ She said, ‘*Sit tight. He'll be right out.”” I was amazed at the
service. I had been prepared for a hassle, But instead I was going to
meet the big guy right away. I ordered a Mich Light and sat down.
‘The wood tables and jukebox music created the ideal atmosphere
for my confrontation with Wing.

She called my name and nodded. There he was in all his glory.
He was larger than I expected. His suit a-savvy, reddish color. He
had those vegetables with him. He sat down at my table. I started
‘out by asking him what he was made of. He answered with a
mouthful of meat. The lights, bright when I had entered, began to
dim. The mood changed. It was becoming difficult to maintain
mny composure, He was a hot one all right. But L chewed away at
him. Oh, he was good. Too good, maybe. I got right down to the
bone of the wing. He was helpless in my hands, He was quickly
fading. I knew had him. At the end he lay there, a mere scrap of a
wing.

1 got up and went over to the phone, slipped a quarter in and
dialed. She answered. I said, ‘Sweetheart, I found him.”

“What's he like?" she asked.

I said the only thing I could say, “Sutters is the place to find
Wing. But if you want to know what he's'really like, you'd best go
there yourself, You won't be disappointed. Oh, and tell him M.F.

I walked out the door into the crisp, breezy night, my appetite
for action satisfied. Another case closed for M.F., cub reporter,

Just the sound of the word bothered me. Death, I'd asked the

“You want the death wings, Are you sure?"*

1 swallowed once and said, “Yes

Were they that hot? I'm writing this, aren't 1? They weren't bad

honestly replied, ‘*No."* She then explained away the situation tell-
ing me about the “new chef,"* As that hero of our times, Maxwell
Smart, would say, “Ah, yes - the old new chef routine.”” Excuses,
excuses,

For your money ($4.75 for a double, $2.50 for a single) you do
receive plenty of carrots and celery, as well as thick, tasty bleu
cheese, But who cares? The wings weren't hot. Period, The mild

which may suit some tastes, but not mine. Mild should mean semi-
hot while death should mean death. Also, the chickens from which
my wings derived must have been Purdue rejects. The wings were

Harpo’s

Harpo’s Pub is located on New Scotland Avenue, near Madison

Avenue. Harpo's is a dimly-lit Pub with unfinished furniture. The
atmosphere is rather rustic, perhaps one could even call it “‘rugg-
ed."* I felt as though this was the type of place one goes to get ham-
mered with a few friends and not for socializing. My friend Dave
said, “It’s the type of place I'd go to for atmosphere; it’s rugged
and relaxed. Besides, normal and/or average college kids hang out
here.”

Harpo's boasts that its chicken wings are ““Buffalo-style."” Jen-
nifer Manner thought that, even though she's never been to Buf-
falo, Harpo's wings are what that city had in mind. Being a native
of Rochester, I assure you they are at least very close.

The sauce on the wings my friends ate was tangy enough, but not
thick like a barbecue sauce, Of course, that was fine with us,
because that way they weren't as messy as they might otherwise
have been, Harpo’s chicken wing sauce gets an A-. As Dave put it,
“They burn going in and they burn coming out — that way you get
to enjoy them twie«

Someone thought some of the chickens must have been starved.
As we evaluated the portions of wings at Harpo's, we discovered
that while there were some shaply legs, there were also a number of
scrawny ones. ‘I wish I had legs like that,” said Marie, The por-
tions were very mediocre.

If you want to relax and enjoy many fine wings and much beer,
Harpo’s is a good place to go. On a scale of one to ten, my friends
and 1 feel that Harpo's wings are a solid 7. We also gave their

“Drink and Wing" specials a perfect 10,

see, When there was still a distant hope I would graduate in four years. A seared and

always a step beyond the trends, it was tough to digest the thought of returning, or
condescending to, of all places, still undergraduated, to the black hole of the student
ghetto. The wings were hardly better,

There are four criteria for evaluating wings — in order of importance — taste, size,
heat and bleu cheese. To be fair, Post wings were strong in two and three, but came up
short in the ub-like-totally important number one, and turned in their worst perfor-
mance in number four.

The wings arrived steaming hot (thermally speaking), with an ample disposal bow!
for those ersatz wingers who don’t go for the bones, and a Wet-Nap device. Personal-
ly, I've always found one of the greatest pleasures of winging to be waking up the
morning after with the quite pungent remains of hot sauce enscconced in my
moustache and finger nails, its ambiance with me throughout the fe'lowing two or
three days. That's what you get for being on the wrong side of Central Ave,

When it came to size, however, these flappers were as macho as they come — a
bounty of hefty fowl, But its the eyes that lies and the tongue that tells — a near-
perfect level of spicy-hotness could not mask the telltale sign of banal wings — the
barbeque motif, dead giveaway for second-class wings. A great wing sauce fuses from
diverse clements a perfectly balanced totality that transcends its ingredients, hinting of
them all without reeking of any one. Post wings were barbeque all the way.

Miami Vice goes Greek

‘omer wrote The Illiad near the top of

Mount Olympus, close to the eternal

snows, the muses, the gods, Stephen
Grave adapted the pilot episode of the
Universal Television series Miami Vice,
created by Anthony Yerdovich, into a
novel, The Florida Burn.

Mike Dermansky

The Iliad is an epic poem, displaying
two armies battling over honor — soldiers
covered with bronze armor,using chariots,
spears, shields, and mischievous gods in-
teracting in human affairs. Vice, moral
depravity, or corruption, is the war of the
20th century. Every Friday night our
heroes make connections, enter the under-
world, and beat drug dealers and pimps at
their own game.

Does Stephen Grave's product rival
Homer? It doesn’t seem a fair question,
Maybe, “Is The Florida Burn worth
reading?" is more appropriate. I enjoyed
reading it. After viewing the premiere
episode of Miami Vice twice, it was fun
scanning through the familiar lines, and an-
ticipating what the hero would say. Sure
enough, it was there verbatum,

Brenda Schaeffer

Montague is one of the major poets
writing in English, He was born in New
York, but he grew up in Ulster, Ireland and
was educated at St. Paul's College and at
University College in Dublin

Montague’s writing has been described
as personal expression which captures the
political realities of Ulster. His reading
from such works as The Dead Kingdon and
The Great Cloak reveals the truth of this

J ohn Montague, the first writer-in-

the dark blood ran out of him and drench:
ed the earth. Achilles took him by the foot
and hurled him into the river with a few
taunting words by way of farewell. ‘Lie
there among the fish.”

In terms of violence, The Iliad certainly
is not dated. Miami Vice's Tubbs often ap-
pears as Crocket’s human side, getting him
to reveal what he is thinking about. It
would be interesting to see what would
happen if Tubbs were killed. This couldn't
happen. The series would end, This hurts
the show. When you know the warriors
can't die, the suspense is dulled,

An interesting aspect of street war is ex-
plored when Tubbs apprehends Calderone:

“Come on you $400-aweek cop. It's
getting late. You can arrest me now.”

“You're dead,” said Tubbs.

description, In one poem, Montague
describes Protestants and Catholics as
“grimly holding on.” He ends this poem
with, "Two crazed peoples — make an
end.” Ina poem entitled "She Cries,” he
tells of a poet at his desk, “still trying to
crack , without faltering, the sound barrier
of a dying world,” The universal dilernas
of life in Ireland are united with a warm
human insight in his poetry, effectively
communicating a common understanding
to his audience,

Montague has written much on the sul
ject of love, and admits to his audienc
have been occupied a great deal with love
— I think it comes from the Old Irish.”

“In love poems,” he says, “one hopes for
a tenderness and an exchange.”

The general reaction to Montague’s
reading was extremely positive. The au-

Calderone looked annoyed, as if by a tri-
fle. ‘Whatsa matter with you? You win,
just hafta take my chances

It appears the criminal is protected by
the law, which Tubbs is enforcing. In The
Iliad fighters fight for glory, representing a
strong family lineage. Tubbs frightens
Calderone but is ultimately held to his
pledge to law, which also binds him to his
commrades, who are also on law's side
Some would argue law is what makes
modern man civilized, Some may argue
otherwise

Miami Vice, like The Illiad is reflective
of its time, It'is meant to watched on a
screen and not browsed through. And, in
conclusion, if you haven't read The Iliad
yet, you'd better do so before a mini-series
is cast. Cl

dience was quite moved by the messages
received from his poetry. However, his o¢-
cassional_ stuttering during his delivery
detracted from the quality of his work

One member of the audience suggested
that the reading may have beep more ef
fective if it had taken place in a smaller
auditorium and without a microphone.
Despite these criticisms, Mont,

reading, on the whole, was a success, Mon:

Close to 150 women and about
10 men gathered in front of the
Capitol Building downtown Fri
day evening to demonstrate that
the almost total control rapists
and attackers have over women at
night is not an insurmountable
problem.

The gathering was part of the
annual ‘Take Back the Night"’
march and rally.

Before the march, rape crisis
counselors read a sobering set of
statistics to the crowd. Said the
events’ organizer, Debra
Schramek, director of the Albany
Rape Crisis Center, calls to her
office were up almost 40 percent
in the last year.

“A-woman is raped here once

economic or social.’”

“One of every three girls and
one of every eight boys is sexually
abused," Willard said, adding
that most of this sex abuse occurs
in the child’s home. 57 percent of
the caseload at the Rensselaer
Center are victims under 18 and
25 percent of teh cases are under
10 years of age, she said.

“The speakers at the march

Fuerza Latina seeking help for friends in need

ay Peter Basile

‘A variety of fundraising ideas are in the
works by members of Fuerza Latina in
hopes of raising at léast 5,000 dollars to
aid victims of the recent earthquake in
Mexico.

The September 19th earthquake,
measuring 8.1 on the Richter Scale,
devastated Mexico City, killing more than
7,000 people and leaving countless others
homeless.

According to Niurka Pion, President of
Fuerza Latina, ‘The situation concerns
all, not just Hispanics, We need everyone's
help.” Many members of the group are
from Mexico, she said.

To raise their immediate goal of $5,000,
Fuerza Latina has several projects planned
in the coming months

On Community-University Day, held
this past Saturday, the group set up a table
in the lecture centers to raise money- 25
percent of which will be donated to the
fund.

Fuerza Latina members will be going
door to door on a fundraising campaign
sometime this semester and will have a
table in the Campus Center to sell T-shirts
and to solicit donations.

Plans are alsp being made for a dance to
which all members of the campus com-
munity will be invited to show their sup-
port, 100 percent of the money raised from
these activities will go to the Mexico fund.

Fuerza Latina will be working through
the Red Cross to send the funds to Mexico.
Pion said she would like the moncy ‘‘to go
to a special neighborhood, so the money
can be used immediately for food, fresh
water and shelter,”"

Alfredo Rodriguez, Public Affairs
Coordinator for Fuerza Latina said he sees
Mexico as ‘‘a neighboring country whose
needs we cannot ignore."" He added that
he would like everyone to be generous and

to realize the urgency of the situation,
$6,000 has been rasised by the Red Cross
