Women Meet to Plan Action
by Sylvia Saunders =
Although the 60 students and
faculty members who attended the
Thursday Women’s Meeting came
for different reasons, they had one
thing in common: concern about
the university's treatment of
women.
“We don't want to turn this into
a bitching session,’ explained
Moderator Jessica Casey of the
Campus Center Student Activities
Department, ‘We have to harness
ur energy (0 get things moving,"
Four women gave presentations
Oullining the major issues: on
campus. day. care; the status of
minorities;/the hiring, promotion
and retention of women; and
women's safety and sexual harass.
ment
“The situation for minorities on
this campus is very grave because of
their numbers,"” according to Ac-
ting Affirmative Action Chair
Gloria DeSole, ‘*And the situation
for’ women is just as grave — not
because of numbers — but because
wherever we are, we tend to be
clustered on the bottom."”
Student Barbara Goldstein spoke
on women's safety and sexual
harassment, pointing out the con-
nection between the two issues since
both prey on women who are
defenseless,
She said that more than a dozen
crimes against women have) been
reported on campus since
September 1. “I discovered, after
looking at the daily crime and incl
dent report, that there is no time of
Mall Dispute Heats Up
by Mare Schwarz
Allegations of a cover-up and a
halted public hearing this week add-
ed to the controversy surrounding
the proposed Crossgates Mall.
On Wednesday night the mall's
developer, Pyramid Crossgates
Co., obtained a court order halting
the final hearing of the Guilderland
Zoning Board of Appeals, Accor-
ding to the Times-Union, the
developers obtained the order after
Iearning that a traffic engineering
report was critical of the mall. The
Times Union also reported the traf
fic report was later ordered
destroyed by the Zoning Board
resulting in great protest from the
mall's opponents,
The developers need approval
from the Zoning Board of Appeals
as well as the state Department of
Transportation (DOT) before con-
struction of the mall can begin:
Department of Environmental
Conservation (EnCon) hearings of-
ficer Daniel Ruzow said DOT per
mits will probably not be issued for
another five to eight months
Concerned Citizens Against
Crossgates (CCAC) president
Rhonda Childs charged EnCon
id Pyramid Crossgates of “some
sort of coverup."”
CCAC has filed a suit in State
Supreme Court, challenging the
procedures used by EnCon in filing
the permits,
Specifically, she charged Com-
missioner Robert F. Flack with
“usurping the community's rights.
He did not comply with the riles set
up by EnCon governing the public
input process."
Childs claims CCAC ney
received notification of the issuance
of the environmental permits. On
October $, EnCon issued the
developers all the required i
Vironmental permits, with the con-
dition that the permits be valid
upon the approval of the project by
DOT and the Zoning Board
“We have been legally set up to
be notified and it was only because
Somebody tipped me off that 1
found out about (the permit is-
suance), Essentially, a clock starts
ticking for us to legally stay the per-
mits. The clock ran out the day
after We filed the suit," said Childs,
According to Childs, earlier in
the permit approval process, Ad-
ministrative Law Judge William
Dickinson recommended denial of
the permits, "This is one of the few
cases on record that an ad-
ministrative law judge's recom~
mendation has been overlooked, "*
Childs said. “Obviously Commis-
sioner Flack did not read 17,000

tion of self-defense workshops due
to lack of attendance.
Lily McLaughlin of the Center
for Women in Government spoke
‘on the status of minorities on cam-
pus, noting a decline in the number
f minority instructors,
In addition, she said, there is an
extremely poor employment and
placement rate when it comes to
minorities.
Nancy Belowich of the Student
Life and Rehabilitiation Services
departments reported on the
percentages of women and
minorities in university occupa
tions,
“Of the 35 highest university ad-
ministrators, there are only three
women and one black person.
The numbers of women and
minorities among full-time faculty,
members and non-teaching profes-
sionals decreased in nearly all ranks
between 1977 and 1980,"" she said.
“This is all very sad, considering
that at least $0 percent of students,

Problems With Tax Cards
Cast Doubts On Election
by Elizabeth Reich
Last week's Central Council elections may be invalidated since some
students, unable to obtain their tax cards, could not vote, according to
SA Vice-President Woody Popper. : ]
Because they paid their bills or registered late, certain freshman and
transfer students did not receive their tax cards last month and were
consequently turned away from the polls last Wednesday, Thursday
and riday, a representative of the SA Contact Office said, ‘
The SA Election Commission Is to decide if enough people were af-
fected to justify another election. SA Election Commissioner Peter
Weinstock said that approximately 560 people voted and no candidate
has told him he or she felt the election was unfair,
Popper said '‘the number of phone calls and walk-ins who haye
directly complained fs small compared to the number of people who
have complained to R.A.’s.'"
Popper sald anyone who did not have a tax card but paid the student
tax could have obtained a receipt from the Bursar’s Office and voted.

"AWAGS And Nimrods’

Jay Gordon Cohen’
Late in 1969, the defense community/
testifying before Congress, revealed that the
E-3A Sentry Airborne Warning and Con-!

AWAGS") would offer, long-range high
and low altitude surveillance of all vehicles,
in all weather, and above all kinds of ter+
rain,
Its data storage and processing capability

detect low flying objects at ranges of up to
250 miles, and higher flying ones at up to
375 miles, The radar system, housed in a
isc shaped rotodome on top of the aircraft
can track 600 targets at a time and identify

‘Al a cost of a mere $131 million per air-

So understandably, there was much re-
joicing at the Bocing Corporation when on
July 23, 1970, It received the prime contract

after all. In fact, there were some major
problems with the system, Suddenly all over
Washington there appeared stories about
the E-3A, Some officials confided that the
rotodome, on top of the aircraft, that
fiouses the radar would mysteriously fall off
while the Jet was in flight, Others sald that
the wheels would fall off during landing. It
seems that the biggest joke in Washington |
these days is, how do you destroy an

special kind of radar which bounces ex-
clusively off the humps of camels (hump

the option of either tracking 600 aircraft

{o the security of Israel, But quickly, all
fears were quelled by the defense communi-
ty analysis. They informed us that if the
Israelis were at war with the Saudis, they
could shoot down the Sentrys. The United
States would understand. So now
everything is fine, right? Wrong.
You may be thinking that the Saudis do
not presently have enough advanced in
terceptors to protect their AWACS and
coordinate an offensive strike
simultaneously, Wrong again. The previous
Adminisiration agreed to sell 60 F-15
fighter/interceptors to the Saudis. As a
condition for that sale, it was agreed, in
writing, that no external bomb racks or
tankers would be sold to the Saudis. Guess
what is also included in the AWACS
package. External bomb racks, mid-air
refueling KC-135 Tankers, and more Spar-
row and Sidewinder air (o air missiles. With
this type of equipment in the hands of the
Saudis (and presumably they will be proper-
ly trained in its usage) the Israeli Air Force
docs not stand a fighting chance.
Somebody isn't telling the truth.
However, the security of the United
States, It is true, does not depend soley
upon taking into, account the security of
Israch. But what if the AWACS, a piece of
our frontier technology, fell into the wrong
hands. No problem, says our Defense
Department. We're going to sell the Sentry
fo the Russians anyway, to spread out the
tremendous cost of the system. Besides, if
we don't sell it 10 them, they'll buy the
British Nimrod instead,

Prison Insight
To the Editor:
1am compelled to respond to the ASP's
front-page article on the New York State
Prison Bond Issue (Friday, Oct. 16), and in
particular to the trumpery of the Voters
Against the Prison Construction Bond,
and, especially, to Fred Dusenbury. The
figures speak for themselves:
Tn 1980, there were 337 reported assaulis
on correction officers of New York Siatc,
and each year this figure increases, There
are many reasons for this increase: 1wo be
fng younger, more violent inmates and the
Jack of programming. But the key problem
is the overcrowding of our state's prisons
New York State and counties have
prisons which are bursting at the seams
with the New York State Corrections
System running at 108 percent capacity
‘When a prison becomes overcrowded,
facets of life behind the wall deteriorate
No matter what the quality of inmate pro:
gramming, no matter what the quality of
the civilian and uniformed staff, the prison
becomes an area where the lives of inmate
correction officers and civilians are in
danger.

prison system by voting yes on the Prison
Bond Issue, The $500 million will be used tc

funds are a small price to pay to avoid the
loss of lives and property damage which we
have seen in the riots of New Mexico,
Michigan and Attica. In the Attica riot, ten
correction officers were killed, and
final report on Aitica, it was recommended
that no more than 1200 inmates were to be
housed in the Attica facility. Today, there
are over 1800 inmates, We all vowed thal
after Attica, it would never happen again.
Overérowding is bringing a major explosion
closer each day, and it is not plausible to
advocate alternatives to prison, as Fred
Dusenbury (the Citizen's Party mayoral
candidate) did, Instead of attacking tl
morality of the prison system's ideals and
framework, I urge all students who are
eligible to vote, to increase your securit

work behind the walls, by voting yes on the

Nancy Burton
Serving as Ward 6 Alderman for the past
four years, Nancy Burton is seeking re-
election on the Democratic, Republican and
Liberal ticket,
Burton, the only woman on Albany's
Common Council, also has the endorse:
ment of the Black and Political Caucus, the
Gay Caucus, and the New Democratic
Coalition;
‘Commenting on issues facing Albany
residents, Burton said, ‘I supported the
security ordinance and am against the anti-
‘grouper law.!”
Burton usually votes in opposition to the
council, she claims, saying that ‘fon the
Tugby match I was one of two Aldermen
who (ook a stand on the matter ai all, We
felt weididn't have to have the game,
Burton also says she voted no to the Inst

Burton fs currently the Budget Examiner

man, Thomas Burch, is running against two

munity forum with one of these
“strangers!?, Judith Enck, because he. fcels!

Michael Ireland
Michael Ireland thinks that his party —
the Citizens Party — has a pretly good
chance of winning some of the seats open
on the Albany Common Council November
3. He's just not too sure if he'll win the
Alderman seat in Werd 6,
“We don't have a lot of hope for Winning
all four races, We do have a good chance io
win in (Judith) Enck's and (Robert)
Cohen's wards, though.'’
Ireland makes himself very clear when
comparing himself to Nancy Burton, whom.
he considers his strongest opponent, ‘I'm
further left than she is — she’s a liberal, I'm
@ progressive,’ nS
Ireland stresses that he is a party man;
that is, he would reliably vote the Citizens
Party line, ‘We do expect party people to
vote the party line. We're philosophically
committed to a position, and we'll stand by
it, We're trying to inject some consumerism
into the race.’?
His campaign js oriented toward low and
middle income people in Ward 6, he says.
He speaks adamantly against what he
calls gentrification of neighborhoods,
“They think when a neighborhood is dress-
ed up, itattracts a ‘better’ people — higher
iricome professionals — forcing out lower
ome people. They're saying ‘to hell with
the people who live here now,' and I think
that's wrong. There must be a way to make
downtown neighborhoods viable without
kicking out lower income people."®
He opposes the way federal Community
Development block grant moncy is being
spent, His claim is that less than 40 percent
of the money is going to housing, while the
rest goes to businesses building or expan:
ding downtown as well as into street and

Judith Enck
“The Democratic machine offers little to
those who aren't loyal to it)!" says Judith
Enek, Citizens Party candidate for ward 10
Alderman,
She would like to see an end to the
Democratic Machine, which she feels, runs
Albany without meeting the needs of its
citizens, while it favors those who support
the machine,
Other issues that concern Enck are a
Security ordinance in Albany, rent control
laws, effective code enforcement, and the
Fepeal of the anti-grouper law,
Enck would also like to change the lack
‘of community input to the Common Cou
cil. ‘In my experience of going door to
door in my neighborhood, 1 have found
that most people don’t even know that the
Common Council exists," she says.
One of her goals should she be elected
Alderman, would be to have a public power
system established in Albany in order to cut
costs on services from Niagara Mohwak, |
thinks, “ihe Common Council should ex-
public power by approving a feasibility
study as the first step."”
Enck claims one of her opponents, 12

‘He (Burch) says there Bre no issues, but|

adding that she feels students will make an)

Paul Silverstein’
“{ consider myself the only responsible
candidate,!’ says Paul Silverstein,
Republican/Independant candidate for
Ward 10 Alderman,
He feels the anti-grouper law, security or-
dinance, and rent control issues stem from
the fact that there is a great demand for the
little housing there is in the city of Alban;
This situation implies, he says, that “high
rents can be dictated,”
He feels rent can be stabilized by stablliz-
ing taxes, One way in which this can be
done is through city investments. ‘In the
first nine months of this year Schenectady
made approximately $30,000 and Troy, ap-
proximately $230,000. Albany didn’t make
a dime,’ he said,
Further, Silverstein believes utility rate
hikes are’ excessive, As an example, he
points out Quackenbush, which is currently
being used as an office for the water depart
ment.
“No one goes there,'’ Silverstein says.
‘Tits almost as if Corning took it as a toy
and the Common Council went along with
i and spent that money."”
In response to the recent Springboks con-
Iroversy, Silverstein said, ‘1 think the
South African government has every right
to present their views. I don't think the
rugby team represented the South African
views. | don't think Albany should have
hhad to spend $45,000 on security. The game
shouldn't have been, played on public pro-
perly at public expense.'!
Silverstein thinks students should have
gotten voting rights long ago, and hopes for
200 votes out of the 250 registered student
voters who live in. his Ward,
“Albany Is a nice place, It could be
nicer," says Silverstein. What's holding it
back Is 40 years of the same administra-
tion.” ~

Art: Motherhood and Seduction |
hat the name Artemesia Gentileschi means nothing fo most comes as no surprise
o Roberta Bernstein, an assistant professor of art at SUNYA who Is studying
Women both as participants in and subjects of painting since the Renaissance.
Gentilesch! was a giant of the Baroque era and was possibly the greatest of all women ar.
tists, The most mild praise for her work would be "revolutionary,"
Bernsteln, who taught at Barnard and Columbia before coming to SUNYA, reveals that
the obscurity of artists like Gentileschl is @ result of sex stereotyping that has trapped women
in a limited number of roles — limited to two, in fact, according to the professor, "The
history of art treats woman either as mothers or as sex objects,” says Bernstein, explaining
that the portrayal of women as the contented madonna or ravished virgin reflected and
relnforced the anxieties of a predominantly male art world.
The madonna Image of course dates back nearly two millenia, but even when ap:
Proaching motherhood in a non:secular fashion, males have tended to deify the woman as
she cares for the child and the home, When faced by growing activism among women, the
situation only grew worse: a “conservative backlash,” says Bernstein, “was a matier of
course,” She cites the reactionary artistic climate of France after the revolution as an exam:
ple.
Bernstein has chosen in her studies to focus not on those negative images, but rather on
the positive responses created by female artists, especially Mary Cassatt, Paula Modersohn:
Becker and Kathe Kollwitz
Cassait is probably the most famous of all women arlisis, though her reputation is based
as much on her friendships with other French Impressionists as it is on her own skill
Cossalt's paintings seem as subtle yet direct confrontations of the themes men Were ex:
Ploiting, Bernstein feels Cassait’s paintings of mothers and children reveal a closeness and
Intimacy that is uniquely female. “Cassatt shows motherhood in a meaningful and signifle
cant way," Bernstein says
Yet Cassatt's paintings never give the impression that the everyday life was exalted in
‘snyway. In the melancholy faces of many of her subjects Is seen the drudgery of routine
Bernstein says Cassatt showed the different sides of domestic life in a way no man ever
could
Ih spite of that, or 4 until

degrading one. Thus, when women treated those very subjects, thelr work was relegated to
the ranks of the trivial or minor
Bernstein has studied two artists of the last 100 years who have managed to transcend
the stereotypes, Paula Modersohn-Becker (1876-1907) was a German artist who portrayed
Peasant life and created ‘striking’ Images of nude mothers and thelr children, Her reputa-
tion arises out of the intensity in which she conveys the birth, death, and life of the family
Kathe Kollwitz (1867-1945) drew the urban poor In much the same way as did
Modersohn-Becker the rural, She broke away from the stereotypes, says Bernsiein, by
belying the myth of the happy mother. Her canvases show the angulsh at losing a son (as
she did In the fitst World War) and the need for protecting and feeding the others, Her pain-
{ings are the antithesis of the traditional image of the madonna,
Bernstein's discussion of women as sex subjects is also one of paradox. On the one hand
Is the Image of the reclining nude — “the stereotypical erotic fantasy of the submissive
female,” says Bernstein. On the other hand are the Images of sexual violence, especially
those drawn from mythology and the Bible and favored by artists In the sixteenth century
The loves of Jupiter, the rage of Europa, Susannah end the Eldets were treated with fre-
quency, and in a way, says Bernstein, which displayed male sexual aggression, potency
fantasies and the propagation of the myth of woman as submissive vicm
The flip-side of thal violence {s expressed in paintings that show whai Bernstein calls "the
fear in men of what women can do to them," An example is the popular Biblical subjects

General, As jn the stories of Samson and Delilah, and Salome and St, John the Baptist,
castration Images abound in a context of seductress turning the tables on the man,
Again, Bemstein turns to the more positive aspects of these Images, and most Important-
y to the work of Arlemesia Gentileschi (1593-1653), The daughter of a respected artist,
Gentilesch’s paintings show the woman not as seductress, but rather as strong protagonist
That she was raped by an art teacher as a young woman can only intensify the reaction {o

The image of the femme fatale remained a popular one well into the century,
Bernstein will give two lectures discussing her studies in November as part of the Capital

she'll also be discussing contemporary arlisis who've approached feminist issues —

Sex objects, dominating wives, submissive wives, castrating biiches and evil mothers.
Do you recognize any of these types? You very well may; they represent the stereotypic
roles in which women are often portrayed in contemporary literature, according to Joan
Schulz of SUNYA's English Department, Its rare that women are depicted as fully realla-
ed human beings, Schulz says
In contrast literature shows men “in all the ways humans can be, They do a lot mor
things, move about in the world a whole lot more, take initiative and seck self-realization,
It would be preferable for female characters to acheive even fully falled lives Schulz
says, than to have them cast into emply stereotypes.

the story, "Hemingway punishes her,”
Schulz interprets.
Depictions such as this tend to “limit
Women to thinking of themselves in certain
Contained ways," and to discourage women
“from seeing themselves as full human be:
ings with aspirations and goals,” Schulz says.
But, she feels, the trend in moder fiction is to try to explore sex roles and the options
of what women can do
Contemporary women writers “are aware of past limitations and are trying to do
something about it,” : ‘i
Schulz also discussed Doris Lessing's short story, "One Off'The Short List," which she
feels raises the question of what kind of attitude towards sex and male manipulation a
liberated woman has.
The attitude that women can be described in terms of emply stereotypes, and that they
are limited as to what they can do in the world, is not a belief generated by modern fiction.
Rather, says Schulz, “literature reinforces the attitudes of society and the status quo.”
Further more, Schulz does not believe these attitudes can be changed primarily through
literature.
But literature might be able'to start a move In the right direction, Schulz says, by
showing wider roles in which women can see themselves,” — Judie Eisenberg

from Broadway Blotto, the band’s principal

Ironically undercut the significance of the
subject, Two examples of Blotto's parodies
are: “The Nowtones," a humorous poke at
the lounge bands they used to watch, and

band hopes to release this soon as a single,
‘We were never really a heavy kind of
group," explained rhythm guitarist Bowe in
a recent Interview. Bowtle noted Broadway's
“developed sense of humor" as a big in-
fluence on the stylistic direction of the band.
Blotto's music may tend to be misunderstood
because thelr Iyrics are a more significant
part of thelr song structure than thelr music,
If thelr words are understood, the music
will be more effective in getting Blotto's point
across,

Bowtle feels the band has enough support to

thuslastically, Blotto {s “expanding” in
popularity, but, “we don’t have enough
money to promote (an album) nationally.”
Bowltle said an album would cost four times

Blotto would have to hire up to ten promo:

‘The band would like to get "hooked up"

any help coming from the independent com:

had no knowledge of such a deal, but he

The mayor loves his job: “I's exciting,
changing all the time,” And he loves
Albany, But he doesn’t live there; he resides
— where else? — on Corning Hill Road.
Corning does, however, own land in
Albany, in which, he notes, he has invested
somewhere in the neighborhood of
$100,000, ‘1 live about 100 yards from the

Certain variables distinguish this election
from the last ten for Corning, One of his
opponents, up-and-coming Charles Touhey
{s convinced he will win the election, And
Corning is foolish to ignore him, Toutey is
reportedly spending more money on his
campaign — which is decidedly based on an
anti-Corning platform — than any other
mayoral candidate in Albany history.
Touhey's father lost to Corning elght years,
ago by a mere 3,500 votes — the closest race
since Corning became mayor, One of the
factors that kept the elder Touhey from
taking the election was the failure to secure
the Arbor Hill vole — an area primarily

South African Springboks to play in
Albany did not sit too well with Albany.

Nor is Corning actively campaigning
against the anti-grouper law, but notes that

But Corning claims he ‘wants to do
everything I know to make the students part

“Lam mayor of all the people in the ci-

Corning has come under question — par-
ticularly by his opponents — for the way he
has handled the city budget, Both Touhey
and Dusenbury have complained that the
mayor does not solicit bids, does not justify
budget lines, does not itemize budget reduc-
tions, and does not issue the city budget by

Opportunity to get exposure for the Citizens
Party, which He describes as “'Medgling but
just starting to fly." The Citizens Party is
running 0 candidates in elections across
the nation with four of New York State's 11
cundidates in Albany, Dusenbury said the
party is planning to enter a candidate in the
1982 siate gubernatorial election,
A‘ the age of $5, Dusenbury said he has
never run for public office. However, he
notes, ‘it isn't that I haven't lobbied and
dealt with political people.’
Born in neighboring Schenectady,
Dusenbury attended Union and Hunter
Colleyes as well as Berkley. Although he
describes himself as an “anti-war person,'”
Dusenbury said he served five years in the
Air Force during World War 11
He has held jobs as an accountant,
bricklayer, union organizer, restaurant
manager, and a counselor to prisoners, and
has taught French and math to juvenile
delinquents, Currently, Dusenbury said, he

recently, he cites the Albany "energy Bill of)

Dusenbury is against the prison bond:
Issue, the controversial Crossgates Mall,

and freedom of choice in abortion,
Unlike Toukey, whom he describes as a
“nice clean-cut young Republican,’?
Dissenbury admits the local press has refer
red to him as “the oldest hippy in town,'!
However, like Touhey, Dusenbury points
to what he calls “cronyism’? in the Corning
Democratic machine, He sald, for example,
that $160,000 in the clty's budget is
allocated for City Hall custodians, Dusen:
bury said’ the custodians are friends and
relatives of the mayor and are not all need-
iit
There are many changes that Fred Dusen-
bury wouild like (0 see in the city of Albany,
He as well as his party, are strong advocates
of public utilities for the city,
Dusenbury also criticized the amount of
public input into the city's budget, Calling
the budget process "totally secret," he said,
“the city does have a public hearing —
three seconds before the budget is passe
Dusenbury said the Citizens Party plalform
proposes 10 changes to open up the budget,
although he did not elaborate,
Dusenbury also said he would like to see
more federal and stale Community
Development funds put into low income
housing. Currenily, he said, 13 percent of
the funds are being put into low income
housing while 40 percent is being used for
ow and moderate income housing, Dusen-)
bury sald his party would like to see 80 per-
cent of the funds go for low income hous-
ing.
Not escaping Dusenbury’s scrutiny is the?
Albany Police Department. He charges that
“police beat up students, gays and blacks,
The gays have $10 million worth of law
suits against the city.'” j
Further, he sald that while Albany has

Of the latter he said, students have to live

In an election which he openly admits he

“He (Corning) has too much political
control,"’ Touhey says, emphasizing each
word with a downwards move of his hand,

Touhey loathes the ‘Corning Machine"

His revitalization plans include forming a

“The role of the goVernment is to. pass

People with expertise know more than the

‘Another pet project Touhey has is the
development of Union Square, located two

“We can't win without the “student

“Students are a force to reckon with,’
Touhey says, “They contribute to the com-

No, SUNYA didn't send press releases
about its community service program to this

he smiles
Then, solemly, ‘In my administration,

We can't tell you how many times the pages of the A/bany Student Press have
been graced (or rather disgraced) with reports and commentaries dealing with
‘women’s safety, The sad thing is that most people don’t come upon a reality un-
til it slaps them across the face, If it were humanly possible we would use this
newsprint to forcibly grab you and cause you to work with us on this.
Since the beginning of this semester, approximately 11 cases of sexual harass-
ment of women have been reported on campus. Who knows how many cases
have not been reported? And out of these 1 reported cases, nine of them have
resulted in a dead end called suspect ‘‘not apprehended, '
At the risk of repeating ourselves we must say that something has to be done
about this problem, even if it means spending money and tripling our effort.
It’s not really that hard to do, once you think of the positive results it may
yield, But we'll remain as helpless as we have been if we don't at least try.

“We get some sort of respect

Pivnick, "The radio is so important
in football and basketball season."*
Indeed their dedicated coverage is
important, The knowledge that
students care enough to work as
hard as they do to send the games
back to Albany has to have a
positive effect on the players—the
athletes know that others back
home can listen in and root them.

Men Booters Cruise to Victory Against RPI; 4-1
RPI Dominated by Danes
Team’s Goal is .500 Season
by Sharon Cole
The Albany State men's soccer
team cruised to an easy 4-1 victory
over RPI Wednesday afternoon,
The RPI team, winless so far this
season, was no match for the
Danes, who totally. controlled the
match,
Albany coach Bill Schieffelin
said, ‘We looked good today,
which Wehaven't done too often,
this season,"
The Danes, usually looking for-
ward to the playoffs this time cach,

remaining.
Wednesday's match took place in
cold and windy weather, but for-
tunately the rain stopped shortly
before the match began. x
Albany goals were scored early in
the first half by John Isselhard,
Dorian Fanfare, and Afrim Nezaj,
Albany's premier forward.
“The Danes expected to enter the
locker room with a commanding
3-0 lead at the half, but RPI's Rich
Leland booted in a goal with less
than a minute left, to put RPI on
the scoreboard. ‘We should never
have given up that goal, it was just
ridiculous, We just weren't being
<patient and controlling the ball,’’
Schieffelin sald.
The second half was completely
dominated by Albany, Jerry Isaacs.
Tengthened the lead to 4-1 with his
goal 40 minutes into the second
half.
“*It was total domination on our
part,"’ sald Schieffelin, In fact, the
Danes outshot RPI 24-10 and
goalkeeper Bill Steffen had just one
save,
Much of this domination was due
to forward Afrim Nezaj, a senior
and a four year starter at Albany,
This talented forward was recently
selected by the Buffalo Stallions in
the second round of the Major In-
door Soccer League draft, making
him the first Albany player to ever
be drafted by this league,
Schieffelin is hoping that this
total domination will continue in.
the last two season games, and pro-
vide the Danes with a .500 season
record. Albany must defeat Kean
on Saturday and North Adams, on,
Monday to reach the .500 point,

“They will be the best team that
we face,"’ said Albany assistant
coach Tony Smith, ‘Overall they
fare well balanced — their personnel
{is good in all the skill positions."
Last year Alfred picked the Dane
defense apart with short passes,
Quarterback Bob Schuster com-
pleted 26 of 38 passes out of the
wing-t as the Saxons won 24-6,
"They're a team that incor-
porates a lot of shifting to throw off
the defense,"” Smith observed,
In last year's contest Alfred got
the Danes to stay in their base
defense by constantly giving them
different looks. It worked to perfec-
tion as Schuster was able to nickle
and dime them to death,

slow, but he has a good arm, The
line gives him the time that he needs
to throw the ball,"
Trying to offset that line will be a
very tough Albany defensive front.
“It will be a dogfight up front,
Smith said, “I think when our
defense {s playing at ils peak they're
good enough to stop anyone,"*
Fullback Gary Foti leads the Sax-
‘ons out of the backfield with 608!

to run the fullback up the middle,

“They work him, He'll get them

Smith, ‘He's the workhorse of

Defense is probably the strongest
feature of both squads. Alfred has
‘only given up 63 points in their
seven games, likewise, the Danes
have only given up $6.
“They ‘an excellent brand of

said Ford.
“They have good personnel all

about the Saxons’ pro 4-3 defens
The Albany offense must get

Ford pointed out
Still, the Danes will have to con-

But that won't be easy against a
very quick Saxon defense.

Smith." We just have (o stay on our

Corning Wins Eleventh Term by 2 - 1 Margin
by Wayne Peereboom
“Maybe people liked the first

ing 1 replied when questioned why
city voters had selected him to serve
an eleventh term
The 72-year-old Corning,
Albany's political boss and the na:
tion's senior big-city mayor, easily
defeated challenging independent
Democrat Charles Touhey by a two
to one margin.
The last results released by the

Albany County Board of Elections
showed Corning with 29,667 votes,
Touhiey with 13,709 and Citizens
Party candidate Fred Dusenbury
with 456,

Nevertheless he admitted,

More seriously, Corning termed

Mayor reflected, “the two men are
very, very different but both able in
many ways.""
Although Touhey and Dusen:

mood at their respective campaign
headquarters was not a gloomy one,
Ina brief concession statement at
the Quality Inn, Touhiey said, ‘1

An enthusiastic crowd of approx-
50 rallied at the Nestle
Headquarters in White Plains last
Saturday, dressed as various Nestle
products fo support the boycott of

the company
The four-year-old boycott, coot-
dinated by the Infant Formula Ac

ready considered the largest non
union boycott in history, according
to an INFACT press release.
A jar of “Tasteless Choice Col

botile of L'Oreal nail polish were
among the costumes. Such slogans
as Crunch Nestle's Quick,"® “No

Although pleased with the rally
and its participants, Dixon was “a

to hear about the boycott."? She
said the purpose of the rally was to
bring the issues to those who would
otherwise not actively seek out the
information,
Dixon also expressed concern
that the boycott isn’t receiving
enough national support.
“After all, millions of babies are
needlessly dying each year" because
of Nestle’s uncthical marketing of

“They know we're here and that

Nestle has suffered a 16 percent

Johnson, who believes the boycott
was a contributing factor,
Yet, he said, “at a recent
