LONDON(AP) Britain's Foreign Secretary predicted that
the Soviet Union will not advance beyond Afghanistan for
the time being but warned the Western allies to give top
priority to bolstering Pakistan's defenses. ‘Anybody who

tainly deceiving himself," said Lord Carrington after a visit
Wednesday to a refugee camp in northwest Pakistan 40
miles from the Afghan border and 18 miles from Kabul, the

buy more of the grain that had been destined for the Soviet
Union, but declined to name the countries or indicate how
much grain might be involved.

into two Categories: ‘salaries and

Ward said that the period exten-

budgetary cuts of 549 faculty
members and 16,697 in non-faculty
personnel. ‘There is no doubt that

Spindler stated, however, that

Spindler explained that the*con-

most likely continue to be carr

Grading the Educators

by Ira Somach
Somewhere in the doctrines and postulates
of education it is written that students will
receive grades, Justification is given that the
‘grade is an evaluation of a student's perfor-
mance. The grade"is a measure of your a]
titude using a standardized measure and per
formance scale. A grade to many Is supposed
to also indicate your weaknesses and
courage you to, improve those imperfections
Which are way below par. Why do we not
‘grade teachers?
Students have increasingly played a smaller
part in (heir education, Today the dissemena-
tion of information is primarily through a
lecture format with a primary instructor and
listeners in a passive role, With such an em-
phasis being placed on the presentation of the
lecturer, should it not be just that he too be
graded?
Evaluations have come to be thought of as.

The only way we can ensure the release of

Come Together
To the Editor:
It is very clear from the letters published in
this newspaper that many minds on this cam
pus are so clouded with their own ideals and
beliefs that the one and only issue at hand is
becoming greatly distorted, That issue is the
immediate and unconditional release of the
50 Americans that are unjusily, isrespon
sibly, and inhumanely being held hostaye in
Iran, No other issue can be discussed,
debated, or defended until these 50
Ameri of
international and basic human rights
united America, The ery for vengeance, for
respect, and ultimately, for war, is not ut
{ered lightly, Americans know the horror of
war, The memory of Vietnam is ever prevent
on our minds, precluding the need to visit a
Veterans Administration hospital 10 see its
Victims, However, there comes a time when
all diplomatic and peaceful means have tail
ed, There comes a time when the burning of
American Embassies, and the killing and kid
napping of Americans in those embassies,
must end, There comes a time when one can
no longer turn the other cheek, for it hy
been turned too often. If, unfortunately, no
ins are released, It is this violatic
other means but war will guarantee that the
rights of Americans will be protected, will be
respected, so be it, During the war for in:
de one proudly displayed banner
Don't tread on me." The time has
come when all nations must learn to respect
that idea,

Misquoted
To the Editor:
The ASP is a very fine college paper but,
like all, it has its faults, 1 believe that others
will agree with me in saying that the ASP has
been known to print misquotes. | understand
that the ASP wants to relay certain messages,
however, putting quotes around something
someone never said is very amateurish and
deceitful. A reporter has no right to rear
Fange words in a statement and quote it
Rearranging words can make the difference
between honesty and lying.

the past December 7th issue of, “Where is
Power Bred — The Aspects $0." After seeing
the quote that was put next to my name, |

to hear, 1 have to set up the whole thing,

said it. What I do is oversee the whole thing
(even). A word change like that takes away
all the credit that the group, and especially

stressed in Anterican principles, yet on (ie other hand, itis given such a low impor-
{aitee priority in some unfortunate but necessary procedures, like budgeting for ex-

Education in America today is unfortunately very dependent on the capitalist
system, and is a helpless victim of inflation’s and recession’s damage, Nelson
Rockefeller became a great min when fhe ereated the finest college system any state
had, dnd Hugh Carey is allowing it to be torn down, because he's allowing tremen-
dous budget and staff euts, that, after previous similar aetions that dwindled (he

gamebreaker.”
The Danes almost broke the
game open way before Jones did.
After leading 28-25 at halftime,
Albany took control of the contest
in the second half, and ironically,
they did it without Jones, who pick-
ed up his fourth foul with 14:50 re-
maining, and sat out for 8:23 as the
Danes boosted their lead to ten
points. Forward Steve Low replac-
ed Jones, and did a credible job

who also was forced to sit for two
nutes with four fouls, Grimmer
finished with 25 points on 11 of 13

‘came on follow ups and offensive
rebounds.
Afier a short jumper by Charles
Robinson brought the Continentals:
to within 42-40, Pete Stanish and
Ray Cesare combined to lead the
Danes to an 18-8 spurt and a 60-48
advantage. Before the game, Sauers
opted to start Stanish in place of
Cesare, and the move seemed to ex
plain itself vividly in the first half,
as Stanish’s strong drives to the
basket resulted in six of his 13 total
points. Cesare, however, struggled
through a scoreless 30 minutes in
which he missed an ahead-of-the
field fast break layup.

stantially below appropriated levels, For example,
despite"an authorized level of 34,500 positions, the
University actually has only 31,800 fille¢ positions, The
hegative lump sum that reduced SUNY's positions by
1,125 and appropriations by a gross total of $12.3 million
serves to bring the gap between authorizations and ex-

Allocation of the position and appropriation reduction
will be primarily the responsibility of the Trustees of the
State University, who will prepare and submit an
allocation plan to the Division of the Budget.
The personnel portion of the reduction, a total of
approximately $9.7 million, is actually a net amount
