Culture, politics clash
at World Week display

By Ben Gordon

A confrontation between (wo student groups at the World Week Ethnic Block
lecture center hallways Thursday opened debate as to whether politically opinionated material
may be presented as part of cultural displays,

Members of the Revisionist Zionist Alternative, a campus Jewish group, protested in front
of a cultural display sponsored by the Arab Student Association, objecting to what they term
ed “‘anti-semitic, anti-Jewish" material alongside literature on Arab culture,

RZA was especially angered by a poster depicting Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin
ext to a “bloody Jewish star’? and what RZA Executive Secretary Glenn Mones described as
pictures of the Sabra and Shatilla refugee camps, where over a thousand Palestinian refugees
were killed by Christian Phalangist forces late last year,

According (0 ASA member Mohammed Kayed, RZA members demanded that the poster
be removed, chanting **Take it down! Take it dawn!" in front of the display. Then, sald
Kayed, a young man from the crowd of protesters tore down the poster and disappeared
amidst the commotion

World Week Coordinators Dr. Frank Pogue and Dr, Paul Ward, arrived on the scene after
being notified by Sami Massoud of the ASA, and attempted to mediate the dispute,

Ward said he spoke to RZA president Steve Hilsenrath and explained the basic tenets and
Underlying objectives of World Week. He defended the right of the Arab students to display
political symbols, saying Any political symbol, whether good or bad, Is part of a nation's
culture, The nature of World Week is to accentuate the positive, the parts of your nation of
which you are proud,!?

Mones said RZA rejects the ‘‘notion that one can't draw the line between culture and
Politics, One need not indict another people's culture,” He feels that the Jewish people are
being scapegoated by the poster for the events at the refugee camps, and feels that the Jews are
being eriticized at an event where cultural information, not propoganda should be displayed.
Members of the ASA identified the RZA member who they claim removed the poster, and
while the RZA acknowledged removing the poster, they said that they were unable to locat
amidst the commotion, When ASA demanded that the poster be returned, Mones replied,
“When you rip down swastikas, you don’t give them back to the Nazis to put them up."

RZA members refuse to disclose the name of the person who removed the poster.

Ward responded (0 the idea of regulating displays by saying, ''I don't see how you can
regulate political symbols, What might be culture to you might be political to someone else.’

*1 tried to explain to Steve (Hilsenrath, President of SUNY RZA) that although his opinion
was that jt was not culture, to the people displaying it, it was,"”

Kayed says that in an area ‘‘as politically complicated as the Middle
cultural,”

Mones claims he will take offense wherever and whenever the poster is displayed, He said,
“This is, {0 us, what we call 'Chillul Hashem,’ a desecration, We don't tolerate a poster like
that any more than we would a swastika or a Ku Klux Klan poster. We equate this with Nazi
and Ku Klux Klan displays."

Pogue refused to comment on the situation until the dispute between RZA and ASA has
been fully resolved, He said a mecting scheduled for Friday morning with representatives of

Wharton predicts budget effects to Legislature

headings of “voluntary furloughs!’ and
“voluntary retirements," The proposed
personnel reduction represents about ten to
twelve percent of SUNY's work force,
Wharton stressed that the budgets for the
past elght years have forced staff reductions
resulting in the total loss of about 3000
positions since 1974, while enrollment has
increased by over 4000, The budget is now,
‘in just one year, asking SUNY to make
reductions in personnel equal to those that
have taken place over the past eight years
combined,"” Wharton said,

According to Wharton's testimony, per-
sonnel reductions would have the following
impact upon the SUNY system:

» limitation of accessibility to sectors of
higher education for many students;

» weakening of SUNY’s ability to
strengthen the state’s economic develop-
ment;

» threatening of program accreditation
due to an increased faculty-student ratio;

‘At a joint budget hearing of the NYS
Legislature's Fiscal Committees Tuesday,
SUNY Chancellor Clifton R. Wharton Jr.,
presented testimony outlining the SUNY
financial plan for the 1983-84 fiscal year.

Chancellor Wharton's testimony em-
phasized his concern for the budgets pro-
posed elimination of about 2500 SUNY
faculty and staff positions with an addi-
tional loss of 1000 positions under the

» Arts and science colleges eliminating 17
undergraduate degree programs and five
graduate degree programs with a reduction
of 97 departments;

» Two health-science campuses
climinating eight degree programs with
reductions in 36 departments.

‘As a result of the position losses student
support services and campus life would suf
fer, said Wharton, There would be reduced
library. services, less academic and job
counseling and a decrease in health services,

The chancellor's financial plan, approv-
ed by the board of trustees and now being
considered by the legislature in amending
the proposed budget, would attempt to
“buy back"” as many positions targeted for
elimination as possible, According to
Wharton, “‘the estimated dollar value of
the positions (which are being lost) is ap-
proximately $91.7 million annually.” he
added that his prime objective wa: (o iden-
tify resources to reduce this monetary pro-
blem.

The budget’s proposal to increase the
undergraduate tuition $250 a year would
generate $49 million plus $3.9 million from
the $25 computer fee. Wharton adjusted
the increase in his plan to $300 at the
undergraduate level, with proportionate in-
creases for higher levels. Although he
agreed that the tuition increase (his plan
would bring undergraduate tuition from:

$1075 to $1375 per year) along with the
$150 dormitory rent hike would ‘represent
fa substantial new burden’ for present and
potential SUNY students and their
families,” he added that “we must be
r and recognize tuition as a signifi-
cant revenue source,

Wharton said one of his fundamental
concerns is not the actual proposal for the
tuition increase in the Executive Budget
but the ‘very disturbing rationalization’
behind the hike, The budget proposes that
SUNY tuition be raised in order to cover
more of the actual education costs (averag-
ed at $6200, of which the student's tuition
now represents approximately 17 percent),
move closer to the average tuition for other
northeastern public institutions, and be
linked in some fashion with tuition in the
independent sector. Wharton said that the
comparisons made between SUNY tuition
and private or other public state un

Arab-American
group charges
press unfair to
Palestinians

By Steve Fox

APE WRITER

Arab-Americans are uniting 10 fight
discrimination in the news media, according
to the National Field Representative of the
Arab-American Anti-Discrimination Com:
mittee (ADC), John Zogby, who spoke here
fat a lecture Monday night,

In his 45-minute talk in L.C3, Zogby said
that the media coverage of Israel's invasion
of Lebanon had been better than the media
coverage of other wars. Zogby’s main con-
tentions, he said, were the headlines and
editorial decisions of the newspapers. “The
editorial policies of the newspapers tend (0
dehumanize the Palestinians and accept the
Israeli position," he said, “What you are
dealing with, fundamentally, is racism, It
exists over there, and has entered into the
psyche of the American people over here,”
he said.

Zogby went on to criticize the entertain-
ment media and cartoonists, saying Arabs
are given a dual) false image, "They are
represented as cither a greedy, immoral
shelk out to screw the United States, or as
bloodthirsty terrorists out to kill children,"
he said,

Zogby explained that these
misunderstandings develop because
Americans lack knowledge of Middle

Members eye inefficiency in University Senate

By Bill Brewster
STAFF WRITER:

A principal policy-forming body
‘on campus, The University Senate
has the responsibility to make deci
sions that directly affect university
policy on campus, but according to
several student senators, the work
is not being done efficiently,

he Senate could do a lot
more,"” said Student Senator Phil
Gentile, who represents off-campus
students. “It has the potential for
handling a lot more than it does,"

"L think most students in the
Senate would say the process to get
a bill through is very lengthy," sald
Colonial nator Cathy
Lasusa are always things
to be done, but the senate doesn't
meet often enough, and some cam-
mittees rarely meet at all,

The Senate is composed of 22
students, 22 administrators,
faculty members, and several c
officio members. Each member
must sit on at least one of the nine
councils, which are then broken
down into 32 subcommittees, Each
council and subcommittee deals
with a certain area.

According to Gentile, most
legislative work is done in the coun-
cils and subcommittees, When a
bill is drafted and approved by a
council, it then goes to the Ex
ecutive Council which must ap:
prove the bill before it passes onto
the full Senate floor

"1 think there are some, students
included,” sald Robert Gibson,
Senator representing C,U.B., "who
see the Senate to be where the ac-
tlon is, but the action fs in the coun:
cils. The Senate should merely
review the Acts of the councils,"” he
sald

According to Lasusa, the coun
cils and subcommittees hold
meetings whenever the chairman of
a particular council! or subcommit
tee schedules one, The full Senate
only meets the second Monday of
every month from 3:30 pm to 5:00
pm, cight times a year, and the ex
ecutive council meets approximate-
ly a week before them. The result,
according to State Quad Senator
Jeff Schneider, means that age
items become backlogged,
meetings are rushed in order 10 get
as much done as possible,

He went on to say that, as chair-

again.

That was the scene Thursday as
Telethon celebrated its annual
“Afternoon at the Bars," drawing
crowds into the Lamp Post,
Washington Tavern, Long Branch
and O'Heaney's,

According to Telethon Co-chair
Eileen Kozin, ‘The spring weather
added to the unbelievable
turnout,’* which had a total atten-
dance of about 1,000,

According to Kozin, Telethon
sold $4 tickets for all the beer one
could drink. She estimated that
$3,300 was grossed, approximately
$1,800 profit

The turnout was great at every
bar, said Telethon Co-chair of
Events Lorri Kosterich. ‘The Long
Branch had a line formed at two
o'clock,!” she sald, explaining that
the kegs were not even tapped until
3 p.m,

Every bar was ‘‘swamped"’ with

and

people, said Kosterich, With the
support of SA and the classes of 83,
84 and 85, all of whom donated
$250 cach, the event was a success,
This money helped to cover
overhead expenses such as kegs,
bartenders, bouncers and any
damage to the bars, explained
Kosterich,

“Afternoon at the Bars’? is one
of the biggest Telethon events, said
Kozin, especially beneficial in get-
ting people into the spirit of
Telethon,

The success of the event was due
largely to the ‘phenomenal
cooperation” at the bars by the
businesses and students, Kozin add
ed, “This is the only way to get
‘owners of bars involved. We sup-
port the bars annually and this is
‘one way they show their apprecia-
tlon, We couldn't do it without
their support.'?

ment of the Lamp Post and owners

Week diversity, weak tolerance

shown that some people can’t deal with the
responsibilities of a diverse culture.

Albany has students and faculty from across the
planet, and for the second year the university has
been sponsoring what it calls World Week. This
highly visible event has brought speakers, exhibits,
and demonstrations that represent some of the dif-
ferent cultures people in the university community
come from,

T his week's celebration of cultural diversity has

Sharing in this diversity is important for a universi-
ly like Albany, and can be a valuable learning ex-
perience, In a world constantly writhing in interna-
tional tension, one remedy is greater cross-cultural
understanding and toleration, Ignorance of other
people's traditions leads to misunderstanding of
other people's intentions: This is the whole idea of
World Week — accentuating the positive nature of

the university's diversity,

Bat yesterday some events happened that showed
some people just aren't ready for diversity, A group
Of students from the Revisionist Zionist Alternative
tore down a poster from a cultural display by some
Arab students during the World Week Ethnic Block
Party.

The RZA claims that poster, which is reproduced
on this issue’s front page, is “fanti-semitic, anti-
Jewish’” and equated it with Nazi and KKK displays,
And somebody from the RZA tore it down.

Whether the poster is anti-semitic or not isa matter
of personal belief. If the RZA found the poster of-
fensive, they certainly were free to protest it and ob-
ject to the sponsors of World Week, But instead they
took the matter into their own hands and took off
with the poster.

This action was totally inappropriate, They
disregarded the right of the Arab Student Associa.
n to display a poster representing their opinion
and took it on themselves to determine what the ASA.
may and may not display, Two tenets that have made
this country’s cultural diversity possible are respect
for free expression and the rights of minority opi-
rion, It is not the Revisionist Zionist Alternative
place to draw the line between someone else's culture
and their politics, just as it is no one else's place to
determine that for the RZA.

The people who tore the poster down have belated-
ly agreed to respect the university's authority in this
matter and say they will turn over the poster today
Hopefully, this kind of disrespect for the rights and
opinions of other people will stop. In a community
representing as many different cultures as ours docs,
there’s no place for intolerance and vigilanties.

Wrong with the way that students! views were being
represented, By the time 1 entered college 1 saw that 1
wasn't being given a chance 10 choose between the (wo
iain American school of thought. As an avowed
Republican-conservative 1 was stigmatized as the following:
anti-abortion, for prayer In school, for nuclear weapons,

result of these fears of being labeled as pro-Moral Majority
of pro-nuclear waste has scared American youth over (o the
left of the political spectrum, Thus, while most students
have a liberal view of social issues like prayer in school,
drug laws and abortion, this shouldn't force people to take
‘a similarly liberal view on the economy, foreign policy or
deregulation of industry,

Most college age people have been brought up in a per-
missive environment, We are used (0 drug consumption,
premarital sex, and pursuit of material goods and status
rather than religion, The frequency of these “‘abberations'”
from traditional behavior has conditioned us to either res-

prises

It would be very tough for the present political parties or
the elderly, white males that comprise them to sympathize
with a way of life (environment) they have never experienc-
ed and will probably never understand, Whereas the young
culliure would consider abortion as good since it would pre-
Vent unwanted children, traditional society condemns it as
legalized murder, Whereas we would have more at stake in
a draft, they would look at it on a balance sheet of wins and
losses, Whereas we look at prayer in school as an invasion
of our first Amendment rights, they see it as instilling
morals in youth,

‘A good example of the lack of understanding between
the government and youth is the newly introduced squeal
tule, This government regulation would require federally
subsidized clinics to notify a minor's parents ten days after
she recieves a form of birth control, It is self evident that
this law would only discourage a woman from dealing with
her situation responsibly; it is also self evident that the great
majority of these people will continue having sex, The
resultant unwanted births and emotionally straining abor-
tions would be the worst outputs of this new regulation. Ic
is also discriminatory in 1Wo respects. Firstly, this law is
biased against poor people since they must rely upon
federally subsidized clinics, Se It Is sexist since there
is no mandatory notifi 5 purchase of birth

The above example clearly indicates that it would be
tough for any assimilated college student (0 agree with
President Reagan's social policies. Where defense is con-

largely built into the system by the perpetuators of, the
military industrial complex. These private entrepreneurs of

I {there was a heyday for humor at

Serious college humor scholars date the
beginnings of college humor in this country
to the 1830's, when two groups at
Princeton started humor magazines,
neither of which lasted a year, Things got
rim after that, and it wasn't until the
that the action got really heavy
+ when Harvard, Yale, Princeton,
and Columbia came out with thelr famous
magazines: the Lampoon, the Record, the
Tiger, ond the Jester. From the look of it
things stayed pretty grim. In the introduc:
tion to the newly revised College Humor
(Harper & Row, 1982), editor Dan Carlin:
sky says those early efforts consisted of
"heavy pen-and:ink sketches with Irrele:
vant captions, and unpointed prose,” And
if that's not enough, the Yale Record
became one of the first college humor
magazines to complain about cafeteria
food, presenting a dinner-time tableau
which Included a menu of “hot forged
meat croquettes, wormicelll soup, and
bouef ala mud.”

Things seem to get a litle better by the
{urn of the century, but not much funnier:
He/she jokes are on the rise (She: Are you
‘an oarsman? He: No, I'm a Swede,). as are
horrid puns (If Warsaw a Moscow what did
Chelsea?), The exceptions come from the
pens of collegians who went on to become
famous. Carlinsky includes cartoons from:
Robert Benchley and Rube Goldberg; pro:
se from Bennett Cerf, Thomas , Wolfe,
James Thurber, and John P. Marquand;
and this from a young Scott Fitzgerald: “To
be on a dals/with -Thals—/How nals.”
Their work is a cut above, but for a young
writer today, silly enough to remain en-
couraging.

We come to the '20s now, and campus
quipsters really begin to hit their stride

Of College Humor Magazines

monthly, College Humor. Adult magazines
Ike Puck, Judge, and the old Life were the
Inspiration for a decade of necking jokes,
flapper cartoons, and “fly in my soup!
cracks ad nauseum, Again the famous are
represented (Dr, Seuss In his “Ted Geisel”
days, Peter Aro when he was Curtis
Peters, and S.J, Perelman when he stil
fancied himself a cartoonist), and their
work stands out, Nearly as historic as
Yale's cafeteria food coup is the ap-
pearance, in the Hamilton Royal Gaboon,
of one of the first collegiate jokes about a
Long Island gil: "STUDE (to a pretty litle
coed); So you are from Long Island? CO-
ED; Yes, Indeed — a Great Necker.”

But there are some disturbing aspects In
the humor of what historians have called
the first generation of youths to identify
with each other as a class, The party jokes,
the drinking Jokes, the necking Jokes were
considered nearly scandalous by the older
generation, but the selections in Carlinshy's
book shows their humor was less a
rebellion against the adult world than it was
an acceptance of It's neuroses. Colleges,
iike'the establishment, were white, WASP,
middle-class, and predominantly male
Blacks, when they were shown at all, were
portrayed as Step 'n' Fetchits with minstrel
show lips, Xenophobia ran rampant, and
dialect jokes featured caricatures of
Irishmen and Jews, Along with a near
Neanderthal treatment of women, the
Golden Age of collegiate humor (College
Humor had a circulation of over 800,000
‘at one point) left a racist, misogynistic
legacy eventually to be inherited by Na:
tional Lampoon and |is imitators.

The '30s and '40s added little to the
reputation of college humor, although
Carlinsky again includes essays and car-
toons by some who made good, As
always, college humor remained strikingly
political, and the magazine editors turned
further Into themselves, if possible, than
ever before, The elitist sophistication of the
New Yorker replaced the ribaldry of earlier
Inspirations, while Charles Addams laun-
cched a fashion for the macabre that would

last for two ‘decades (a squashed, bloody
mouse [s shown In one cartoon with the
caption, “Well, anyway, 1 got their god-
damn cheesel”’)

The decades before and after the war
seem transition periods, bridging the gap
between the careful, “risque” humor of the
"20s and the increasingly  scatalogical
humor of the ‘50s and parts of the '60s
"Sick" Jokes Include a cartoon of a boy
sliding down a banister outfitted with an
oversize razor blade, or Liliputian ex-
plorers lost In a urinal, The old standbys
are still there, of course (HE: What would
You say If stole a kiss? SHE: What would
you say fo a guy who had a chance to steal
an automobile but only took the windshield
wiper?), but you sense things are changing
when a cartoon depicts a harem of topless
Vargas girls and a tubby sultan exclaiming,
"God, I'm horny!"

70s saw the temporary demise of the col-

coaster Ride with the Best College Humor
of the 1970's (Holt, Rinehart, Winston,
1982), edited by Joey Green, picks up
where Carlinsky’s book leaves off. Editor of
the Corel Lunatle, Green founded the
National Association of College Humor
Magazines in 1979. Now a contributing
editor of National Lampoon, Green blames
the seriousness of the times for the
premature death of college humor, “with
the Kent State shootings, the Invasion of
Cambodia and the My Lai Massacre bring:
ing the 1970's to a hilarious start.” The late
"70's on the other hand, saw Animal

House and the Reralding by the mass
media of the return of college humor.

Green says the new emphasis in post-
Bicentennial college humor Is the early Na-
tional Lampoon, with mitations of Chris
Miller, Michael O'Donoghue, Doug Ken-
ney, et. al, We can extend that to include
Saturday Night Live and its imitators, and
the theory holds up in the pages of Green's
book, You know the references, so you
can guess at the types of humor: the em-
phasis on one-liners and party jokes is
gone, replaced by essay length “skis” and
parodies whose targets invariably include
‘one mass medium or another, "Nothing is

‘an important, if not durable, component of

Austin Devine

Ireland as “the troubles” began on a full scale in

August of 1969. 1 was soon to get a crash course In

Irish history. Personally, war is something that I never

try to glorify for there Is no glory In It, It is a filthy,

mean, and ugly thing but it sometimes cannot be

avoided, Ireland Is one such case where |i cannot be

avoided. Life is so short, its sad that the violence of

war Is ripping apart so many countries, but where

there Is oppression and injustice there is resistance

Sadly, this is a fact of life. This war in Ireland will be
the final war fought in Ireland for full independance, it
will not end until Britain leaves Ireland forever-
militarily, politically, and economically, That might
take another 5, 10, or 40 years, | really don't know but |
I do know that it must happen. While the forces of
liberation in Ireland, the Provisional Irish Republican
Army, and their fighting comrades, the Irish National
Liberation Army cannot militarily defeat the armed
thugs of the British army, neither can they even
possibly be defeated for they are the armed vanguard
of arisen people. This struggle did not start in 1969, it
{s merely a continuation of the centuries old fight of the
Irish people to end British domination and exploitation
of their country. In every generation the Irish people
have asserted their right to national freedom and
sovereignty; nine times during tlie last 360 years they
have asserted It in arms.

When the British Army arrived in Force in August
1969 they were greeted in nationalist areas by some as
‘protectors’ from the loyalist mobs who had been at:
tacking nationalist areas. But this honeymoon period
was not to last long. It was soon realized that the

British army were not there to protect nationalists but
to uphold the artificial gerrymandered state
engineered by them fifty years earlier, Onward {rom
August 1971, my home in West Belfast was to be raid.

ed regularly, In 1972, my two older brothers, Sean
and Ciaran were arrested ahd interned In Long Kesh
concentration camp. Both were held for almost three
years, This was my awakening, for | stared to question
how these soldiers, coming from another country,
could ransack my home and put my older brothers in
prison without any charge and any trial, Today intern
ment has been replaced by more sinister repression:

fon jury trials and denial of habeas corpus being prime
examples, Coerced confessions are admissable
evidence, the burden of proof placed on the accused

One {s guilty until proven innocent in the special
British courts In Northern Ireland. Now as in the past,
it Is evident that the British government cannot rule
any part of Ireland without the administrative
systematic violations of human rights.

From the ages of 12 to 18} was arrested approx-
imately 100 times. Not once was It for committing a
crime against my people. Merely, it was because |
came from a “terrorist family” with two brothers intern-
ed. It was thus concluded I must also be disloyal,
Disloyal is in all actuality an understatement. | wanted
England to leave my country, so I marched the streets
to demand not only an end to internment and
repressive laws, but to demand the God given right of
the Irish people: the ability to rule their own nation in
their own interests.

On Christmas day, 1975 | had two ribs smashed by
an Ohlo-made rubber bullet used for riot control, In
1976 [ was in a bar on the lower Falls Road in West
Belfast that was in the direct view of three British army
observation posts and an army barracks. [t was Grand
National day, the Grand National being the longest
horserace of the year. Naturally the bar was packed.
Alter | had been there for about forty minutes a bomb

the way the tiles all just blew off the wall, covering us

the awful screaming. | only had a few bruises, but of
course others were less fortunate, the final toll being 2

dead, 78 injured, 9 seriously. The bombers were

elther loyalist paramilitarys or the British Army. They
drove thelr car right past the army barracks having to
come to almost a complete halt three times as they
Went over security ramps outside the barracks. We
questioned the fact that they were not stopped. The
reply: ‘Well the observation posts were empty’.We
questioned further; How did the bombers know that
We asked? The reply: ‘No comment’, Back on January

street that [lived on in Belfast with two friends, Peter
Waterson, Jim Toner and myself were talking about
going home when a car pulled up on the road op:
posite us and a man stepped out with a pistol, He fired
six shots at us killing my 14 year old friend Peter and
seriously wounding my 15 year old friend Jim, The
blame for this was again was a toss up between loyalist
killer gangs and the British army. The army had
saturated the area only an hour beforehand but when
the killers arrived no soldiers were around. In August
1975 | had my four front teeth smashed down my
throat and received twenty stitches behind my ear

Were tortured and four ended up signing confessions

justice. In 1972 Amnesty International reported

them Ireland. In 1976 the European commission or
Human rights found the British government guilty of
torture in Northern freland, In 1978 the European

court of human rights found the British guilty of in-

five years. But while 1 may be free from English op-

die, whichever comes first

The IRA realizes that British soldiers are basically
working class men from London and Liverpool and
Endinburough and killing them Is regretable. But so
long as they are the instruments of British misrule the
must expect to pay for their crimes. Prime Minister
Margaret Thatcher would not lose any sleep tonight if
twenty British soldiers were killed today, for they are
merely disposable pawns in a big game to her, One
IRA man is worth a 100 British sholdiers because he is
fighting for something he beleives in at great personal
rish for no pay

Most of the news entering this country about Nor
thern Ireland comes from Britain, so of course it gives
the English government's version of reality. They like
to link the IRA with whatever most American don't

misinformation in this cuntry, General Frank Kitson of
the British Army stated in, Faber, 1977,The pro-

setting-up of an official wireless or television network,
or by trying to inform and influence the existing news

Because of this media distortion here we must work

Vast of the greal early "70'4 s-

‘Maude before jt, the producers and cast of
M*A‘S'H decided to end the show with
the same kind of dignity with which it
began

Mark Rossier

‘Of all these programs, M*A*S*H began
as the least revolutionary. Whereas All in
the Family and Maude tried to shock us
with taboo language and subject matter
and Mary Tyler Moore operated for seven
{years under the equally shocking premise
that a single Woman could live alone, with
only her career and be happy about It
M‘A*S*H was initially nothing more than
@ spin-off of an enormously successful
movie.

In fact, the first season wasn't really that
much belter than McHale's Navy, Hogan's
Heroes and other military comedies, To be
sure the writing was more sophisticated
and the humor, for the most part, subtler,
but the general operating principal was the
same—use the sirict formality of Army
bureaucracy as the buit of jokes.

‘Over the years however, things began to
change. Some of the film's darker aspects
began to permeate the series, Suddenly,
the doctors and nurses of the 407th
began facing up to the death that surround.
ed them, M*A*S*H began to realize Its ex
traordinary potential, Here was a show
thal, by virtue of setting alone, allowed is
characters to confront all of life's major
conflicts, Death, love, lonliness, Insecurity,
Just, loss, and the strength or weakness of
the human spirit were all frequent themes
con the show, While other sit-coms had to
devise bizarre plot twists to deal with such
themes (if Indeed they had wanted to),
M‘A‘S'H had the opportunity every
week, Once they realized that people
wanted them to take advantage of the op:
portunity, the witers, producers, and stars
did so with a vengence.

Because of its unique setting, M*A*S*H
is probably the most serious situation com>
‘edy in the history of television; But, It took
years and a number of external and Inter-
nal changes for the show to,reach that

point,

=

The most obvious reason for the show's
constantly evolving attitude was the cast
changes. When Larry Linvile, MacLean
Stevenson, and Wayne Rogers left, the
producers, quite wisely, didn't attempt to
replace them with carbon copies, Instead,
they brought in fresh, new characters who
forced the existing ones to reexamine rela-
tionships and values

The Introduction of B.J. represented the
least change from his predecessor, Trapper
John, That was only because the plot at the
time required that Hawkeye have an ally
against the arrogant and pompous Frank
Burns, But Mike Farrell brought a warmth
‘and sensitivity to his role that Rogers never
did. The fact that B.J. was married was
one of the most significant changes. The
frivolous and sexist. womanizing that
choracterized much Hawkeye and
Trapper's relationship was gone. In fact,
one of the series’ best episodes concerned
B.J.'s gullt over @ one night stand, Bud
was the first character with strong ties back
home and it was with him that the pain of
separation becomes clear,

When Linville left, B.J. and Hawkeye
finally met thelr match in the person of
Charles Emerson Winchester. Once again,
the writers presented themselves with a
challenge and then met It, Charles. was
‘every bit as clever and talented as his tent-
mates, And though he disliked Plerce and

sutt as much as Burns did, he had
ability and the brain power to do
something about It. The confrontations bet:
woen these three Increased the level of the
show's humor, The mindless sight gog and |
surefire prank were replaced by puns,
Wisecracks, and elaborate jokes with
Tenathy bulld ups

By far the most Important of the changes
was Harry Morgan for Maclean Steven:
son. The 4077 now had a leader who was
neither bufoon nor warmonger, Before
Morgan's arrival, career military men were
usually depicted as fools, bigots, or, most)
dangerous of all, both, Yet here was a man
who had a great compassion (undoubtedly
the most of any of the characters) and
nonetheless chose a career that, by its very
nature, calls for destruction. Morgan!

teresting than the changes in the cast were
the changes In Margaret, At the beginning,
Houlihan was an ironclad bit-
ch—humorless, unfeeling, and almost
‘completely lacking in charm. As the show
progressed, fear, lonliness, and a broken
marriage softened Margaret and the at-
titude of others toward her. As their respect
for her grew, so did their respect for
themselves, each other, and, in a very real|
sense, all humanity. She was the outsider
(60, it could be argued was Burns, but he
was too much of a foolish character to be
taken seriously) and the troop's acceptance
of her invites their acceptance of everything
new and foreign and different.

Additionally, Margaret carried on her
shoulders the responsibility of being the on-
ly major female character In the show, The
road was a rough one, but eventually she is.
accepted as a peer with her sex playing lit-
tle, if any, Importance on her competence
as both a nurse and a human being
‘Through her, the show took on a decidedly
feminist approach to its characters and rela-
tionships, with many of the best episodes
dealing with the changing sex roles and the
die hard chauvinists like Hawkeye’s reac:
tions to them. If any proof of the changed
altitude toward her is needed, try to
remember the last time anyone called her
“Hot Lips

Though M*A‘S*H's seriousness led to
lis greatness, it also, in all honesty, led to
the pretention and sentimentality, Especial
ly In the last seasons a certain self
righteousness crept into many of the more
dramatic episodes as the writers began not
only to realize the situation’s potential, but
to exploit it, Pentagon officials and five-star
generals become more pompous, the
Koreans, especially those with families,
became more cute and cuddly and vic
timized, and the cast began to let thelr lov
Ing feeling for each other show once too
often

Most of what was wrong with the show
was in evidence in Monday's 24-hour
finale, Klinger’s mawkish engagement to
Soo-Lee was both silly and inconsequen:
tal, Furthermore, his decision to stay in
Korea with his bride, while meant to be
Ironic considering his early altempts to
escope succeeded only in being trite
Equally mawkish was Charles’ un-

characteristic Involvement with a troop of

Chinese musicians, While one can unders
tand the temptation to pull out all the emo
tional stops, It would have been nice if the
writers attempted to resist it a litte more

Similary, B.J.'s contrived and unconvin
ing return purely for the sake of sentiment
seems a betrayal of the kind of emotion
they sought to avold by killing Blake off, (1
know I'm not supposed fo ask, but when
did B.J. find the time to write "Goodbye"
to Hawkeye In rocks and how did he get
the letters so perfect? As | said, I realize I'm
Not supposed fo wonder about such things,
but for a show that prided itself on realism,
such sentimental excesses seem doubly
phony.)

But enough of this negativism
M*A‘S"H was one of television's finest
programs and Its attributes, as well as its
flaws, were could be seen at its final hour
Even at the end, the people involved refus
ed fo compromise or take the easy way
‘out. Instead of letting down their guard at
the prospect of peace, the writers raised {t
even higher. The peace (s ultimately as
futila as the war. The surgeons are on the
operating room when the peace is declared
and the fighting stops. A voice on the radio
says, as the cease fire is about to take hold
“That is the sound of peace.” Aiter a brief
pauise we hear Potter call for a scalpel and
the surgery continues, It is that kind of sub:
tle, intelligent writing that gave M*A*S*H
its power

The most impressive aspect of the final |
show were the Inevitable goodbyes. Except
for the previously mentioned melodrama
of B.J. and Hawkeye's farewell, the ex
changes were all remarkably restrained
Where most shows would dwell on the
goodbyes with filmclips and tears, Alda and
Co, save them for the final 15 minutes
This is even more remarkable when one
considers the number of people who all
had to say goodbye to each other. The
farewells were short ard eveel anc all he |
more moving because of jt, The emotions |
of neither the characters nor the audience |
Were exploited, As always, they were
treated with Intelligence, respect, and most
of all, dignity, These are the qualities that
distingulshed M*A*S*H for 11 years, And
they are the very ones that, as it leaves,

“Who would think that these guys, of all

Haze”, "Hey Joo”, and "Voodoo Chile."
Why they recorded this is anybody's ques
Maybe they felt hey could reach a new au:
dience: hard rockers, Maybe they wanted
to shock the public; which they have a
‘great chance of doing, Maybe they wanted
to change thelr siyle and emulate a master;
Hendrix would have probably thrown his
flaring guitar at them

Joel Greenberg

Laughter, Lots of it, I's hard to keep a

mond wall is earbreaking, To think that so
meone would try to sell a song he can't
sing, uggh {t's great that a musician tries to
break out of his caste, but Techno: Hendrix
is a bit silly, The syntheslzers, let alone the
people who play them, can't begin to grasp
the feeling behind Jim's playing, With litle
doubt, this record will be the year's most
obnoxious

It really Is a shame, Soft Cell had such
promise when they completely turned
around the old Motown sound, creating an
enduring number one hit last year. Instead,
vocalist Mare Almond and writer Dave Ball
got caught up in thelr synthesizers and
sleaze and ended up with "The Art of Fall-
Ing Apart.” This is an album to be missed,
Don't let advertising fool you, this album is
bad, It is two sides and an EP of the seedy
world of love turned upside down. As Marc
Almond explains, "I'm interested in the dirt
under the carpet, In taboo things.” After
listening to the record, the point is painfully
obvious, Although musicians have been
singing about the perverse for years, when
Soft Cell does it, the songs don't work. The
synthesizers become too overbearing in

It becomes embedded in out souls,

There is no solitude

he award-winning science fiction

writer, Samuel R. Delany, will be

on campus as Writer in
Residence, under a grant from the National
Endowment, from March 7 thru March 25.
While on campus, he will conduct a mini-
course entitled “Reading Science Fiction”
for upper division and graduate students
He will ive readings as well as participate
‘as a guest consultant to literature and
writing courses In the English Department,

Susan Sharfarzek

Delany, who wrote his first published
novel The Jewels of Aptor at the age of
nineteen (and four other novels in the next
three years) has written some of the most
popular and controversial science fiction in
the last twenty years. He has won the
prestigious Nebula Award four times as
well as the Hugo Award, and has been
described in The New York Times Book
Review as"...the most interesting author of
sclence fiction writing in English today,”

Delany's best known novels include:
Babel-17 (his first Nebula winner), The
Einstein Intersection, Nova, Dhalgren, and
Triton, He \s also the author of two
volumes of essays: The Jewel-Hinged Jaw
‘and Starboard Wine, and an extended
@ssay-memolr on urban communes,
Heavenly Breakfast

Born and raised in Harlem, Delany, who
attended the Bronk High hool of
Science and dropped out of City College in
the 60's, is emphatic about the possibilities
of science fiction as a genre. In a recent in:
terview he stated: “Science fiction is one of
the few places where you get a chance to
separate the object from the subject
Hopefully, the next step Is to take control
of it...not as though everything out there is
somehow a projection of the inner self...in

their music and subdue the vocals. There's
a competition between Almond and the in
struments with the machine winning and

indulging in drawn out solos. In the end,
there's not much holding the music
together.

Teckinically, David Balls a talented syn
thesist, but technical vituosity is only half
of music Anyone can learn to play an in:
stiument, but It takes someone with a
special talent to make a song come alive.
‘The musician must have that certaln quall-
ty, soul if you will, to make his songs work
When Soft Cell recorded this album, they
left their soul at home, In the hands of so-
meone else, their songs like “Forever the
Same and “Loving You, Hating Me"
could be reworked Into hits, Undoubtedly,
Soft Cell can put together a pop song, but
Unfortunately they destroy itn the process
6f recording lt, Enough is enough and one
gets bored by the end of the record

‘Throughout the whole album the syn-
thesizers are overwhelming and the vocals
become too tiring, so what is left? The lyrics
and the song structure. While they deal
with the darkest side of love, the words are
catchy,
yubes the person you woke up next to to-

Ragan were a ile bit oder you might have
to pay,’

This just about sums up Soft Cell’s subject
matter. They may or may not have the
ability to write good Iyrics, but they do have
potential. Too bad he can't utilize himself
effectively,

Underneath all the technology are a few
songs trying to get out, There are a few
numbers on the album that really could
sound good, but they are choked by the
synthesizers, It would take a musician with
the skill of a heart surgeon to cut away at
the song until the basics were left. Then,
good music could be made, Soft Call is one
of the techno-pop bands that haven't ye
realized that music tells a story and sets a
mood; It doesn't get caught up in the In-
struments, On “The Art of Falling Apart",
Sof Call ieisred and gave Uno cad
music,

SF

‘a way that is not useful beyond a certain
point, We must take responsibility for what
we do, but one of the things we can do is
change the world around us.”

‘Asked about the prevalence of strong
character portrayals of both women and
blacks in his fiction, Delany stressed the
Usefulness of science fiction for presenting
the particularized figure: “...certalnly peo-
ple who come through what one has to call

= for want of a better word - marginal social
matrices, their relationship to the object has
been very different, it has been influenced
by different social Issues, .and thelr percep:
tion of things - our perception of things
tend to be very different, In science fiction
their views are presented as rich, human
individual, generating great insight

‘An avowed feminist, Delany further
stated that one of the main reasons he
became Interested in science fiction as a |
young writer “was the potential for the
Women characters...there was always a bit
more room for all the characters to
dramatize what was going on through ac
tion.” He noted further that science fiction,

‘| Love NY’ campaign a success

By Caryn Miske

Tn the midst of the 1976 crisis) a
campaign was launched to help
New Yorkers feel good about
themselves and what their state has
to offer, Three years and $23
million later the impact of this cam-
palgn was phenomenal; travel
revenues of $170.1 million has been
directly attributed to this program,
In addition, resultant tourism
created 540,000 jobs within four
years, The ‘1 Love New York”
campaign had paid for itself
already, surpassing expectations by
4 tremendous Increase in commerce
awareness,

Campaign director Bernard Rot-
‘man explained the economic impact
of the ‘I Love New York"? cam-

algn through an audio-visual
presentation during the f
meeting of SUNYA's new F im
for Economic Awareness and
Policy(FEAP), David Visoky, the
president of FEAP, sald, “the pure
pose of the organization is to pre=
sent economic Ideas for the general
public to understand more fully,”

‘Commerce, pointed out the realities
of this glamorous campaign at
Tuesday's gathering. “‘A great
amount of research must be done in
order to produce the wonderful
‘commercials you see on T.V.,"" said
Rotman, On the basis of solid
research, it was discovered that the
two favorite attractions were the
great outdoors of upstate New York
and New York City, home of the
theatre district and numerous
restaurants, museums and shops,
By accentuating and marketing the
positive aspects of New York, top-
of-mind awareness (i,¢., the first
place that comes to mind when you
think of vacation) doubled since the
onset of the campaign, according to
Rotman, In fact, advertising
‘awareness for New York State rose
to 66 percent of people surveyed,
the highest of any U.S. or Canadian
destination matched only by
Florida,

‘The campaign was then split into
two parts, Rotman explained, The
campaign for upstate New York.
targeted what people already
wanted outdoor recreation. Travel
{o upstate New York increased by
an astounding 85 percent, three

times higher than the U.S. total.
However, the campaign for New
York City proved to be more
challenging, Rotman said,

People associated New York City
with high costs, confusion and
crime, he pointed out. For many
tourists, the negatives overwhelmed
the positive, In order to attract
tourists, the campaign concentrated
on the magnetism of Broadway,
This proved to be a very successful
‘campaign technique, sine New York
hhas the highest increase in trips (6.3
million) of any state,

When the ‘1 Love New York’?
first began, five million dollars was
spent on advertising, in the form of
six weeks of intense and concen-
trated T.V, commercials, These

ials. were taken nation-
but only in the prime
coverage areas, that is, areas which
had a high percentage of possible
tourists, Without these commercials
the program would not have su
ceeded, Rotman said,

However, duririg the rest of the
year the commercials were sup-
plemented by public relations,
which included press releases,

posters, public service spots and
promotions on the radio.

‘The campaign also implemented
seasonal festivals which focused on
a particular area of the state.
Celebrities donated their time to
make commercials for these
festivals, since, Rotman pointed
out, it has been proven that
‘famous faces sell.'" Also, in order
to fill empty seats, the, major
airlines would use the
NY
name on the end, This not only
benefited the airlines, who get an
edge on the competition, but it also
is free publicity for the State. in ad-
dition, vacation packages which in-
clude brochures, transportation, ac-
commodations, and even theatre
tickets are provided for the conve-
nience of the tourist.

Each year, New York State has
decreased {ts share of promotional
spending for the campaign, Track-
ing studies have proven that the ‘1
Love New York"? program Is very
profitable, yet inflation and budget
cuts will have a drastic impact on
the campaign, If the State wants to
maintain the program's present

momentum, the necessary funds
must be allocated, something which
is getting more difficult each
year, [a]

Danes received a bid to the ECAC

Hamilton and, after defeating the
Lakers, went on to lose to their
hosts in the championship game,

It will be the final competition
for seniors John Dieckelman and
Mike Gatto, Both co-captains will
be graduating this term,

“7 think that they (Albany State)
are looking forward to it,’ Sauers
concluded, ‘Naturally, we looked
forward to getting into the NCAAs,
but we didn't, At least this tourna-
ment eases some of the pain.”

All ECAC tournament action can
be heard over 91 FM beginning
tonight at 5:55 pm with Phil Piv-
nick and Howard Strudler, Only a
tournament championship game
will be held; there will be no con-
solation match, That championship

Wharton suggested that a utilities

jal sources of reveniues extensive

The above proposals would

more faculty and staff,
Wharton explained that
wen after these proposed position

felentions, SUNY would still lose

In preparing his financial recom-
mendations for the board of

said he first needed to consider a
question upon which the fiscal plan
is largely dependent: whether the

STAPF WRITER

The Albany State junior varsity basket
fall team ended a successful season on a
sour note Tuesday night with a 64-62 loss to
Hudson Valley Community College.

‘Albany guard Jason Hurley tied the game
at 62. with 19 seconds left on a jumper from
the top of the key. After inbounding the
ball, HVCC called timeout (with five
seconds left) to set up the eventual winning
basket.

During the timeout, Albany State head
coach Barry Cavanaugh told his team to
show man-to-man defense, and then drop
back into a 1-3-1 zone, The ball was in-
bounded and passed inside to Viking 6'6"
center Doug Stollacker (who scored a game
high 20 points) who found himself
isolated against Hurley. With the decided
height advantage, he turned around and
made a five-foot jumper and that was the
game.

“We didn't fall back in time,’ said
Cavanaugh. We should never have let that
player get the ball down so deep."”

‘Alter getting off to a slow start (trailing
6-0), the Danes grabbed their first lead,
11-10, on a pair of free throws by Joe
Rogers. The game se¢-sawed back and forth

pace in the scoring column with a 14.9 point
per game clip. He is followed by an old
Dane nemisis, Charles Robinson with a 13.1

Semester due to academic ineligibility and
didn't play until 10 games into the season,

Other double figure scorers on this well-
balanced team include Bob Kiely with 12,8
points per game, Larry Kollath with 11.0
and Mark Burnham with 10.8.

A tribute to Hamilton's well rounded at-
tack is that by season's end seven players
figure to have scored 200 or more points
this year.

Before the Danes can begin to set their
sights on the Continentals, they will first
have to contend with the Unviersity of

behind the organization in its tenth annual
Anniversary Conference at Albany this
weekend

Nader received a tumultuous welcome
from NYPIRG members amassed in LC 7
Saturday. Asked whether NYPIRG Is ‘ten
years old or old at ten," Nader replied,
“Well, NYPIRG looks good. Your agenda is
looking at the futtire and you don't pass

any resolutions,” he added poking fun at

government's penchant for useless legisla:

counter-cultural force in this corporate socie-

claiming that even they are corporate-
oriented. ‘The business and computer areas
are booming,” he said, “but you have to
apologize for being involved in the social
sciences, where you really are educated,’
Nader added, ‘Our engineers can build
bridges, but how many can deal with the
poisoned water under it”?

Reading from a College Republicans
organizational memo concerning the present
law suit filed against NYPIRG by a group of
students with the support of ® right-wing
legal fund, Nader urged the defenders of
NYPIRG to uphold the principles in the suit
‘The robot-minded young Republican
doesn't have to think at all,"” he said reading
detailed instructions from the memo.

In the memo, said Nader, young
ans claim PIRGs are a threat to

The lawsuit against NYPIRG was filed by
4 group of students represented by the Mi
Ailantic Legal Foundation and changes that
student fees accepted by NYPIRG are being
used for “Political and ideological
purposes,” and are therefore unconstitu-
tional.

Organization, Nader emphasized, is the
key. "You can have great causes," he sald,
“but if you don't have stamina,
perseverance, determination and committ-
ment, you will not go anyplace."

Deriding corporate-oriented education and
Vocations, Nader told the student activists
that they should develop the concept of

The loss of quality education, the lack of student access
and the irrationality of “paying more for less,"" because of
Goy. Mario Cuomo's proposed budget cutbacks, were the
main themes present at a three-hour legislative reception
held last night by the union of United University Profes.
sions, The reception was held as part of an on going lobby
ing effort by UUP.

‘About 75 faculty members and UUP representatives were
present from colle noluding SUNY
schools at Cobleskill, Geneseo, Cortland, and Brockport,
According to UUP Albany Chapter President Tim Reilly,
about a dozen state legislators were invited, but because of
a busy Monday schedule, only two--Senator Hugh Farley
and Assemblyman Robert D'Andrea--were able to attend,

Nuala Drescher, statewide president of the UUP, said
that the lobbying effort by the UUP addresses many pro-
lems involving the proposed budget, but was bothered by
the fact that ‘nobody has really talked of the problem of
student access, There is no sense in increasing student ad
missions and raising the price to attend,’ she said, stressing
that the middle-class will be priced out of an education.
“They are unable to get loans and cannot afford this h

tuition,”
pose of a publi
their own way,”

Both legislators present at the reception seemed to be
Supportive of the lobbying effort and of the SUNY system
Sen, Hugh Farley (R-Colonie) a business law professor at
SUNYA, said that he is a “firm believer in SUNY, It is one
Of the greatest assets of New York State," He added that
“you can not afford to let it wither on the vine."

Most faculty members mentioned the fact that because of
repeated cutbacks since the Carey administration, most of
the ‘fat’” in SUNY has already been cut out, They were
sturbed in that any further cuts will be biting into the
meat’ of different progreams, decreasing the high quality
Of education that has been achieved at SUNY.

UUP Treasurer and Geneseo Professor Tom Matthews
cited a few examples, saying, “the music department at
Cortland is being cut from a faculty of nine to a faculty of
three, and losing major status, At Genesco the drama
department is losing their costume designer, This will not
exactly result in quality productions," he added, Matthews
said he felt that there was no rationale behind the proposed
budget cuts, ‘It is a political maneuver, in order to have &
say in the decision, students and faculty have to get
politically involved." He added that, ‘you cannot treat

she added, stating that “the whole idea and pur
University is lot for the students to pay

SUNY like the Motor Vehicle De
Year and restorations the next year.’

Henty Geerken, admissions counselor al SUNY.
Cobleskill attacked Cuomo, saying that the union vote, ine
cluding that of UUP, Was what got him elected, Now,
Geerken said, he is not keeping the promises he made to the
Unions, and “his proposals of one year would do what it
took Carey eight years to do,"” He added that Cuomo's
proposals would, “take away the last opportunity for
Students to have a fair chance at a decent eduication,"*

Robert D'Andrea (R-Saratoga County), disagreed with
What some of the faculty said, stating that, “I believe you
fre not going 10 see that many cut in the end, Cuomo has
already backed off on some of the proposed cuts," he ex-
plained, He added that Cuomo is getting himself into
political trouble, in that, “he is getting on too many
issues."” D'Andrea sild he could not support a program
that involved lay-offs and that would cost money,

Both Farley and D'Andrea said they were impressed with
the student rally of a week ago, ‘It was impressive, Welle
organized, and definitely made an impact," said Farley,

Reilly said that the lobbying effort will continue up to the
day of the vote, which is two weeks away, ‘About 300 lob-
byists will be at the State Legislature today promoting the
cauise,"*he added, ia
