by Dunc Nixon

Albany State’s Warren Crow successfully defended his N.C.A.A. college divi-
sion championship Saturday as he scored a close 7-6 decision over Glen Younger
of Western State, in the final round of the 123 pound division, The match was
probably Warren’s toughest this year, as the outcome was in doubt right to the

end, The win upped Warren’s record to an amazing 17-0.

In his first match Crow
gained a 6-3 decision over
Melvin Smith of Fort
Lewis, Colorado, who had
a 9-2 overall record going
into the match,

‘This win moved Warren into the
quarter-finals where he registered
an impressive 7-0 shutout over

James Burch of Ashland College
(Ohio), Burch had amassed a 10-2+2
during the season.

Another Shutout for Crow
In the semi-finals, Crow scored
second shutout as'he decisioned
Mike Howe of Mankato State (Minn,),
an excellent wrestler with an 11-1
record, by a 6-0 count, Thus the
stage was set for his dual with
Younger who had accumulated 15
wins against 2 losses.

Springer, Palmer Have It Rough

Besides Crow's fine performance
Coach Garcia also had praise for
Craig Springer and Randy Palmer
who wrestled well against very tough

competition, Palmer lost his first
match to Jerry Bond of State Col-
lege of Iowa who was 15-31 on the
season, Springer was decisioned
1-3 by Jim Knutso (10-3) of Augus-
tana College, Palmer got to wrestle

again when Bond got into the finals,
and this time he lost a very close
match to Paul Stehman ofNorthwest
Missour! State,

So with three representatives ina
field of 284, Albany State finished
in a very respectable 14h place
with a total of 70 schools competing.

Crow Goes to University Division

‘of two ‘repeating champsions, will

Evans Presents
Petition To Barr,
Urges Jury Action

A petition signed by over 2000

¥ Albanians and University students

was almost presented to Governor

Nelson Rockefeller Wednesday at-

ternoon by representatives of seven
local organizations.

The petition called for the Gov=
ernor to intervene in the present
Grand Jury investigation of voting
irregularities in Albany County,
Specifically the inviestigation cer
ters on the alleged $5 vote in Al-
bany.

The petition was prepared and
presented by The Albany County
Committee to Investigate Voting and
Elections, which includes Richard

4 Evans, an Albany State student who
{s chairman of the Tri-Cities Stu
dent Alliance,

The group was unable to meet
with Rockefeller because of a sched~
ule mixup, but did present the pett-
tion to Dantel Barr, the Governor's
assistant Press Secretary, who
Promised to present the petition to
the Governor,

Evans sald “I recommend student

to have Influence into ‘what goes on

the governor to take action,!*

“Further,” Evans stated,

upheld, Students could write home
to have friends and relatives con-
tact their representatives. also,”

This action would not be without
Precedent. As early as 1948 Gover-
nor Herbert Lehman found cases
of “vote fraud” in Albany and ob-
tained 174 convictions,

Governor Thomas E, Dewey's ad-
ministration saw another investiga=
Hon into Albany polities and found
evidence of voting irregularities,
ut the Grand Jury refused to ins
dict anyone,

Currently, the Grand Jury now
meeting for several hours every
other week has drawn heavy cri-
Hclsm for its lack of progress.
Another grounds for criticism 1s
that the current Grand Jury re-
quires witnesses to walve immun-
lty from future prosecution in the
face of District Attorney John T.
Garry's public declaration that he
will prosecute both the giver and
taker in a vote buying situation,

‘The Albany Independent Move-
ment (AIM) has charged that of the
22 Jurors on the Grand Jury, 19 are

F rogistered Democrats, while none
of the others are Republicans, In
addition, 20 of them are serving for
the second time in two yeas on a
Jury that State law requires be so-
lected randomly from throughout
the county,

Wednesday’s petition stems from
a letter to the Governor on February
8, 1967, which urged the Governor
to intervene in the investigation,
The letter was signed by 14 area
ministers, including Frank Snow,
Albany State Campus Minister,

War-Workshops This Weekend
Designed To Inform Students

‘Throughout this week the Student-
Faculty Committee to end the War
in Vietnam ts conducting six intro
ductory workshops on the war. The
two remaining discussions will be
at 3:45 tomorrow in Humanities 129
and at 7:00 Sunday in Humanities
123, The purpose of these informal
discussions according to Douglas
Auster, one of the group leaders,
is to inform the students of the
different aspects of the war in
Vietnam and to bring the students
out of their niche of apathy,

‘Two topics mentioned during most
of the workshops this week were
concerned with the reasons why the
United States 1s in Vietnam and why
the American people fear com-
munism as much as they do, Luring

Neorealistic Film
‘The Bicycle Thief’
Tonight At IFG

The most highly acclaimed of
Italian neorealistic films, “The Bi-
cycle Thief,” 1s this week's pre-
sentation of the International Film
Group,

Shot entirely with a cast of non=
professionals, the film's story is
that of a man and his son search-
ing through the streets of Rome
for the stolen bicycle needed for a
long-sought Job, The director, Vit-
torlo De Sica, won worldwide hon-
ors for this ‘plcture--followed by

rlumphs such as “Umberto

‘Two Women,” “Yesterday,
Today, and Tomorrow,” and “Mar-
riage Itallan Style.”

In a brief article tt 1s impossible
to summarize the impact this simple
and incredibly moving film had on
the cinema world, Many critics
called it the best film since the
coming of sound, and it appears
consistently on critics? st of the
“Ten Best Films Ever Mado,” It
won numerous prizes at every ma-
Jor film’ festival and an Academy
‘Award for the “best foreign film
of the year,”

Contrary to the IFG schedule,

Differentiation of Communism

At the Monday group discussion
it was pointed out that the fear the
United States had against commun-
{sm was against all forms of com-
munism. Now, however, according
to the theories, our government 1s
learning to differentiate among the
vartous types of communism and
fears some forms less than others,
Since each group has a different
discussion leader and different
People participating, the topics at
each meeting are not limited to some
tertain questions, but to anything
the group wishes to speak about,

The Monday discussion group
talked to some length on the eco-
nomic aspects of the war, The
economic reasons discussed were
mainly based on the advantages of
the war to American business,

Dr, Wilfred Imrich, who attended
Monday explained how an Amertcan
business was able to invest in his
native Austria after the war and
‘squeeze out any possible competi=
tion, Imrich they surmised that
American busingss may be doing
the same thing in South Vietnam,

Pro Voluntary Service Groups
Attack Panels Studying Draft

Washington, D.C,, March 6 (CPS)
Proponents of voluntary: national
service have attacked the reports
of two government panels studying
the draft for their failure to con~
ider voluntary work as an alter=
nate to conscription,

:Elghteen leaders. of student or-
ganizations have informed the Pre:
ident by telegram that they are
“appalled that the two advisory

Students Comment

Pr
dent, the students commented, “It

two investigating bodies) fail to

rvice in either the armed forces
or in nonemilitary, humanitarian

Heavy criticism was directed at
the report of the President's Na.
tional Advisory Commission on Se-
lective Service, headed by former
Assistant Attorney General Burke
Marshall, The students charged that
the Marshall Commission's recom-
‘mendations “are agrab-bag of stop-
gap measures designed to alleviate
certain inequities at the cost of fur=
ther entrenching and exacerbating
the impact of conscription,

Stated the student leaders, “The
Commission recommendations, if
implemented, mean the perpetuation
of a system’ which debases human
dignity and deprives young Amer=
feans of thelr freedom.”

Signers

Signers of the statement included

officers of the College Young Dem=

ccrats, the Young Republican Na=

tional Federation, the ¥.M,C.A, Stu

dent Council, and the University
Christian Movement,

One of the recommendations of
the Marshall Commission was the
abolition of student deferments, In
a statement to Congress released
today, the President announced that
he was partially implementing that
suggestion,

‘An executive order to be Issued
in the near future will abolish de»

students are attending
medical or dental school, The Pros
ident stated that ‘student defers
ments have resulted In inequities
becou: y of those deferme
have pyramided into exemptions

Major Points
Other major points in the Pres.

Adent’s message include the induce
ton of men beginning at age 19,
jersing the: present order of
calling the oldest first, so that un
jainties now, generated in t
lives of young mep will be reduced;
uniform rules for determining non=
student deferments; and the estab=
Ushment of a lottery system of
“fair and impartial random" (FAIR)
to determine the order of call for
eligible men,

Additionally, the President called
for immediate improvement of the
Selective: Service System “to as~
sure better service to the registrant
both in counseling and appeals, bet~
ter Information tothe public re
ing the System's operation and
broader representation ‘on local
boards of the communities they
serve.”

Johnson's recommendations also
include the continuation of the Mar=
shall Commission for another year,
“to provide a continuing review of
the system that touches the lives of
80 many young Americans and their
families,”

Message on Draft

In his message on the draft, the
President also suggested that ‘“en-
Ustment procedures for our Na-
tlonal Guard and Reserve units be
strengthened to remove inequities
and to ensure a high state of readi-
ness for those units,’

The President praised the work
of young Americans, who, through
service in such programs as VISTA
and the Peace Corps, “have touched,
and perhaps even changed, the life
of our country and our’ world,”

But he sald that both the Mar=
shall Commission report and the
statement of a special panel re-
porting to the House Armed Serv~
Ices Committee found that the Unt~
ted States cannot “establish, through
these programs and others like
thom, @ practical system of non=
military alternatives to the dratt
without harming our national so-
curity,

Johnson Hopes

Johnson sald, however, that he
hopes “the spirit of voluntary serv
ice in soctally useful enterprises
will... continue to grow until that
good day when all service will be
voluntary, when all young people
can and ‘will choose the kind of
service best fitted to thelr own
needs and their nation’s,"

‘The President stated that “be-
cause of the conditions of the world
we live in now, we ust continue to
ilitary
y == of our young men, We would
be an Irresponsible nation If we did
not == and perhaps even an extinct
one,"

He said he believes the proposals
he has sent to Congress will telp
create the fairest system that can
be devised for choosing who shall
serve in the military,

Last year 1 began writing a jazz
column for the illustrious ASP and
had to give it up'because of com-
mitments to our other fantastic
‘communications. media on the cam-
pus. Now that I have seen fit to ter~
minate my association with them,
I’can return to my one true love,
the printed word (wha?),

‘There are going to be many things
happening in the Jazz Scene in and
‘around “Albany during the next few
months, This column will be used
to make you aware of what's really
happening and to urge you to go
see it.

Twill also be telling you about
various jazz recordings andartists,
But there will be a difference in
my “reporting.” I don’t intend to
spend much’ time covering well-
known artists because they have had
more than their share of Jazz glory
And really. dow't need any more,

as Jeremy Steig, the
John Hardy Sextet,-the Mel Lewis-
Thad Jones Band, Kenny Burrell,
and many other lessor known jazz
artists, For these are the men who
are pushing jazz and struggling to
make @ living at It

Let’s start out this issue with

realm of jazz: Jeremy Stelg, With=
out a doubt, Jeremy is the perfect
example of the unknown jazz ar-
Uist: out of work, underrated, and
very good, To date, I have heard
Jeremy on only two albums, The
it 1s the album he has put out
‘on the Columbia label called “Flute
Fever" (CL 2136), WithDenny Zeit
lin, Ben Tucher, and Ben Reilly,
Jeremy has hit on a combination of
musicians that added more than their

‘own share to the excitement that is
his album,

Jeremy has a rather interesting
background, He. has been playing
flute since he was elght years old
‘has been playing jazz since he
was fifteen, The typical thing for a
budding jazz musiclan is the one-
night stand, Jeremy has and is still
doing more than his share of them,

roximately five years ago,
Jeremy had  motoreycle. accident
‘and paralyzed his face, Since ‘he
couldn't play, he started working in
the vein that his entire family has
fingers in: painting. Despite the fact
that he 1s rather good at this, he
still wasn’t satisfied. Another oper-
ation left his face partially paralyzed

than an impression on the jazz aud-
fences that have heard him.

Now, I realize that the first com-
ment is that there are at least two
other fine flutists in the business
that have made it, This is all true
and I wish them well, The thing is
that Jeremy Steig has more on the

ball than the better-known of the
two. and could actually play rings
around him. His sound 1s exciting,
agitating, and many other adjectives
that I don't have the room to print,
So, in a word, let's Just say thai
Jeremy Steig is great,

Next week, I'll be telling you a
little bit more about the realm of
Jazz. If I ever get one of my albums

Pro Foothall

This week one of the new fraternities,
Phf Beta Sigma, conducted a poll to test
the attitudes of the student body about
the feasibility of a football team here,
The poll was well received, with over

2500 people responding.

At first examination, it looks like the
undergraduates are heavily in favor of a
football team, while the graduates and
faculty are somewhat less enthusiastic,

What is easily recognizable from the
results is that the student body is basic-
ally unaware of the information neces-
sary to intelligently answer such a

questionnaire,

First of all, based upon the cost es-
timates of Dr, Alfred Werner, Chair-
man of the Department of Physical Ed-
ucation, we could fully equip a frosh
and varsity team and maintain such
for a period of 15 years just with funds
now held by Athletic Advisory Board’s

surplus fund.

We already have the land for a foot-
ball stadium and practice field,

The Albany area has been scouted out
seriously by professional football and
baseball minor leagues, who are look-
ing for a stadium to rent out, The tri-
cities area recently gave overwhelming
approval in a Times Union survey to
see {f the public would support events

held in a large stadium,

R.P.I., not to mention the Mets, has
proved that we need not beat Notre
Dame to support a football team, In-
diana hasn’t beat a rug in 10 years but

they just might be the best supported
team in college ball.
Sports are necessary to build a na-

tional image. Once a national image is
built, improvement of academic facil-
ities becomes easier. Most people have
heard of very small schools like Notre
Dame, Providence and Bradley because

of their sports scores, How famous

are Cooper

Union and the Rockefeller

Institute for merely being two of the
best schools in the country?

Proposal Honored

Several times last semester we wrote
editorials urging action on the women’s
hours proposal. It seems that much ac-

tion is finally being seen and, best of

all, it looks probable that it will be put
into effect this semester.

We must take notice of this fact and
commend the organizations which finally
cooperated to produce the finished pro-
posal. From the beginning of the revel-
ation of the present proposal it seemed

to be more right than any other.

COMMUNICATIONS

No. Faculty Support

‘To the Editor:

‘The students at SUNYA have gocd
reason to feel proud of the Mental
Health Telethon which was staged at
the Campus Center. At a time when
80 many students are objecting to
the failings of our society, students
at this university cooperated in a
highly constructive demonstration
of social responsibility, The incred~
{ble Job of planning, orgentzing and
supervising a 22-hour performance
by those in charge brings honor to
all of us, The overwhelming support
given by the student body in sts con
tribulions and presence through
that long night 1s something that
will long be remembered,

‘The Telethon however was sup~
posedly an effort of the university
community and many

to understand the absence of sup=
port by most of the university fac~
uty, Although several of the ad-
ministrative and reaching faculty
greatly alded the program, such
as President Cotlins, Dean Chesin,
Mr, Brown and others, the lack of
monetary and moral support by most
of the faculty was deeply discour-

aging. In trying to increase dialogue
and communication between students
and faculty, there have in the past
been many’ successes, but in this
specific Instance, cooperation falled
through the faculty's indifference
to their potential role in the telethon,

The support by the faculty of an
unquestionably worthwhile attempt
to improve our society was negli-
gible, and further, their lack of
encouragement of student efforts to
take an active role of constructive
protest was thoroughly disappoint-
ing,

Tf there is to be a university
community of students and faculty
working together toward any of our
common goals, there must be com-
munication, but in this instance,
the wires betweenstudents and fac-
ulty were, for the most part, dead.

Lauren Kurz
Ditto

To the Editor:

‘This past Weekend, as every emp-
ty-pocketed student knows, a tele-
thon for the research and the cure
of mental health: was held, Being a
common student, not involved in the
administration of the event, I do not
know actual statistics of the con-
tributions,

For this the students of the Unt~
versity should be commended. But
I have one question to pose to all
involved with this institution, Where
was our faculty? The mainstay of
every school {s its faculty.

They are the ones who set the ex-
Siiplex, Ant set; In. thie Jestance;
the faculty did not lend a hand tothe
student organizers. The way I une
derstand the situation, Faculty Sen-
ate decided not to contribute as a
vunlt and left the contributing to the
individual faculty,

Considering the example of the
students, individuals still gave while
their groups did not, Wouldn't it
have been nice if the faculty had
given as a group and also individ~
ually?

The ASP Exemplary?

While loitering recently in the vicinity of the
barber shop in the basement of the Campus Center
Building, we just happened to notice the reading ma-
terial available to the waiting student customer.
This material-consisted of two copies of the ASP and
one copy of the National Enquirerer,

Several interesting interpretations of this phen- &

omen are possible. IS the ASP twice as good as the
Enquirerer? Can conclusions be drawn as to the
relative depth of reading matter available? Can a
common denominator be drawn? Are students on this
campus capable of comprehending material below a
certain depth? What about the barbers?

Last seméster Kappa Beta donated a subscription
to Playboy to the Library. Perhaps some other group
will feel similarly inclined toward the barber shop.
Ladies Home Journal anyone?

Naturally, the squirrels, being
curious as'to what was going on
(herent trait), went up tothe eighth
branch to see better what was going
‘on (all squirrels of the BOTBFROG
being farsighted, of course), By this
time all of the grease on the springs
has dried and bol-t-ing~g, up he
went.

by Martin Schwartz

Once upon a time, a long, long,
time ago, in a forest deep in the
backlands of the Black Forest region
of Germany, there lived a pink ele~
phant who ‘was rather different,

As I'm sure that you all kno’
the major sport among pink el
phants in the backlands of the Black
Forest region of Germany was to
climb up into the trees and rape
the squirrels, However, this one
pink elephant we have in mind
could not climb up into the trees
and rape the squirrels because of
the fact that he was spastic and
therefore could not make it higher
than the third branch before he
would fall down,

Naturally, this 1s not nearly high
enough to rape any squirrels since
they always habitate at least the
seventh branch, But, ahal Upon
reading the New Ideas section of
Esquire, which the pink elephants
of the BOTBFROG (backlands..Ger-
many) ALWAYS read, he came upon
an ad for a special pair of shoes
‘with springs on the bottom.

Immediately he ordered them even
though they were very expensive,
They were so expensive, in fact,
that he had to surrender his entire
life savings which had been slowly
built up over a long career as an
observer of sealed railway cars
on their way from Zurich toRussi

Actually, it was a very easy Jo!
fas the last time there was one was
in March 1917. It was so easy, In
fact, that the elephant became very
lazy, never exercised, and there~
fore spastic,

Now, however, with the new shoes,
he envisioned a life with no prob-
lems whatsoever. Ah, but for the
fickle cliché” of fate! Little did he
know that the squirrels of the BOT-
BFROG have some of the sharpest
ears In the world, Also, they could
hear very well,

‘As a result, when the squirrels
heard a distinct bol-l-Ing-g-g in
the distance they immediately ran
down to the fourth branch and
watched our hero fly right past them.

“Well,” salth the lad, "the time
has come for some bru-ha-hal Pll
simply grease my springs.’” Upon
doing this all that happened upon
the commencement of jumping was
a “squish, squish,’ and the pink
elephant stayed right where he was,

At last the pink elephant had
them! Rape and pillage was avall- @
able to his heart's delight,

Oh, alak, alas} Even the best
of things must come to an end, For
one day, his favorite squirrel be-
came progant, The poor pink el
phant didn’t know what to do, He
asked all of his friends for advice
but sone of them knew what to do
since all of them were homosexual
and only bothered with each other,

At last he decided to marry her,
When the ceremontes were over the
next day (he had to make it fast:
she was three weeks pregnant and
squirrels breed in only 44 days)
he began to worry, For it suddenly
dawned upon him,

What would the bables (squirrels
have litters of 2) look like? The
poor plnk elephant got so worrled
that he turned gray. Now that he
was a normal elephant he was im-
mediately ostracized, trom his peer
group, This proved to be such a
shock to him that he had a heart
attack and dropped dead!

Since he had previously willed his
body for medical research to the
Medical School of the University
for Pink Elephants Living in the
Backlands of the Black Forest R
fon of Germany, a post-mortem@®
autopsy (they're ‘the only kind to
have) was immediately held by the
students,

‘There the tronte part of the story
comes to the fore, It seems that the
ex=plnk gray elephant was inreallty
sterile. So tt wasn’t he at all that

Lean’s ‘Dr. Zhivago’ Called

Whenever you start to list the cinematic accomplish-
® ments of director David Lean, you get the feeling that
at any moment you will be accused of being a name~
dropper by the company around you. Leanhas come al-
most as close as one can get to becoming a god of the
movie industry, and not without good reason.

Merton’ Technical Tour de Force,
Script Fails To Produce Laughs —

by Diane Somerville

If the average theatre-goer can manage to getpast gaping at the technical work
in the current State University Theatre production of the Kaufman Connolly comedy

«Merton of the Movies,” it’s inevitable that he will at least midly enjoy the goings-
on on stage. But that he will ignore such things as costumes and lighting is highly
improbable, since in ‘‘Merton,’’ they go a long way toward being a virtuoso per~
formance, and are certainly the most impressive ever done on a stage here,

Technical director Rob-
ert Donnelly, assisted by
Jerome Hannelly on lights
and Patrizia von Branden-
stein, in charge of cos-
tumes and make-up, have
turned the show into a tech-
nical tour de force, so much
so that the actors them-
selves are almost up-
staged,

‘The main reason, perhaps, that
the audience finds’ itself so en-
grossed in scene changes and the
like lies in the script itself, The
authors of “Merton are famous
for thelr knee-slapping, _belly-
laughing comedies, and this one
simply 4s not that funny,

One wonders if the play’s medio~
ere success 1s linked to its subject,
for as its publicity claims, it is an
extremely typical work, and mod-
ern-day audiences are simply too
far removed from the world of st
lent movies to find all of this really
entertaining, Yet how much comedy
could it have held when it was writ
ten, coming as It did to a public
devoted to the very industry Mer=
ton’ spots,

moments, however,
most of which are the result of di-
rector James Leonard's (as always)
resourceful staging, but as a whole
“Merton” simply never delivers
the laughs it promised. The fault,
however, lies more in the script
itself than in those who interpret it,

Alex Krakower, who plays the title
role, is hmself @ sort of Merton,
Having been absent from SUT stages
in a major role since as a fresh
man he played the highly dramatic
title role in “Ethan Frome,” he was
something of a dark horse for the
lead in “Merton.” He carries ttoff,
however, with real comic spirit, His
performance may not be inspired,
but {t {s certainly technically flaw-
less, He does not however, receive
the necessary support from his co-
star,

Leane Pasternak, as the Montague
girl, is certainly dazzling in all
those costumes, and does an ade~
quate job with’ the everyday re-
sponses which compose most of her
role, When, however, she attempts
to console the sobbing Merton, the
audience simply cannot believe it «
simply because Miss Pasternak her-
self does not believe it, and a sigh
of relief when the mood changes Is
almost audible.

Certain other cast members, how=
ever, more than compensate, Chief

od

among them is Scott Reagan, whose
caricature of a director 1s one of

the really timeless things in the
show, Karen Prete as the casting
director is priceless, as is Stratton
Rawson as another Montague, The
Stolen-Show Award, however, must
go to Bob Clayton as Amos Gash=
wiler, who provides easily the fun=
nest scene in the show,

The real star, however, is the
scenery, Mr, Donnelly has outdone
himself in mounting “Merton" on

one of the scenes does look sus-
Piciously Hke a famous sequence
from “My Fair...

Probably the only unfortunate as~
pect of “Merton’ is that director
Leonard, famous for his inspired
productions, has not managed to
find again that miraculous blend
of personnel and material which
has made his past productions such
rewarding experiences for all con=
cerned, “Mertun” 1s, to be sure,
diverting, but {t can never qualify
to be put in the same category as

two revolving stages, each of which
{s completely changed three times
to produce six completely different
sets. The effect {s breathtaking, as
are the costumes. The ingenulty
displayed {s mitless, even though

“Of Mice and Men” or “The Mis="
anthrope,”” It becomes once again,
as with past SUT productions, a
case of going to the show simply
to watch master technicians = in
all fields - at work.

REHEARSALS ARE IN FULL SWING for ‘‘cornival’’ which is
scheduled for production in late April.

by Dione Somerville

om etage

It is always a pleasure to watch a master at his
craft creating that craft before one's eyes; that,
however, is the opportunity currently being presented
to audiences in attendance at ‘‘Merton of the Movies,”
the current State University Theatre production being
staged in Page Hall,

‘Anyone who has ever worked with the Page facil-
ities is aware of just how difficult it is to stage any-
thing effectively on the extremely shallow stage. Itis a
problem Robert Donnelly, technical director of ‘‘Mer-
ton,’”’ has gotten around beautifully with the use — for
the first time on this stage —of revolving stages. The
work that must have gone into each of six sets shows
in their professional air — and why not? For if any~
one is a professional, Mr. Donnelly is.

Originally a graduate of the old State Teachers
College — in geometry! — Mr, Donnelly went on to
further study, ended up as tech director at Dartmouth,
and was lured back to his alma mater in the fall of
1965, His first set at State for ‘‘Of Mice and Men,’’
showed the versatility and inventiveness which con-
tinues to mark his work. Probably his most famous
sets are those created for ‘Stop the World’? and
‘Lysistrata’ - for obvious reasons,

Not only does Mr, Donnelly know his trade; he
also goes a long way toward puncturing the idea that:
true genius must always be accompanied by difficult
temperament and sloppiness, He is probably one of
the most affable men in the speech department, As.
for sloppiness, one look at the stage shop proves
otherwise, Hearty congratulations to Mr, Donnelly
for another brilliant design,

Meanwhile, the University has taken one step in
the direction of expanding intercollegiate athletics at
Albany by providing for a track team onthe club level

to be started this spring.

The sport will consist of

running events only since we do not have the coaching

rippled soled shoes, and all-weather spikes to outfit
a 20 man squad, Potential competition will include
such schools as RPI, Union, Williams, Oneonta, Coble-

satisfactory, the club would be advanced to varsity

Mike O’Brien:

Outstanding

As Coach, Amateur Athlete

by Hank Rabinowitz

In the summer of 1963,
a young baseball player's
future was dealt a setback
by the lack of foresight
on the part of a scout,
The players name was Mi-
chael O’Brien,

This 1s Mr, O'Brien's first year

at Albany. A member of our physi~
cal education department, he 1s also

hopes for the university.

He believes that with the addition
of the new gym next year the stu-
dent body can look forward to better
teams in the futuro, He bases his
prediction on a number of consid=
erations.

Foremost, 1s the progress being
made in the area of recruitment, He
feels that the hard work of the
coaching staff and interested alumnl
will be realized sooner than most
people think, In addititon, as an ex=
panding university athletically and

the coach of our freshman basket-' academically, Coach O'Brien be-

ball and baseball teams,

He comes to our university with
excellent qualifications. Upon his
graduation from Ithaca College in
1961, Mr, O'Brien became a P.E,
jacher coach on the public
school level, In 1965, he returned
to college to get his M.8, at Siena
College,

During his athletic career Mr,
O’Brien has garnered a number of
citations. While in high school he
was a U, 8, Hearst All-Star Base-
ball team selection in 1986, In
1057 he was a member of the All~
Albany Basketball team, At Ithaca
College he was captain of the bas~
ketball and baseball teams in his
senior year, As a member of the
Albany ‘Twilight Baseball League
he was selected as the MVPof 1963,

Coach O'Brien has brought with
fim an optimistic outlook toward
Ife and his school, He has bright

Heves that Albany now offers the
scholar-athlete a wide variety of
advantages.

‘As a lifetime resident of the
capitol district, Coach O'Brien felt
he was qualified to say that the
increased spirit shown by the stu-
dents is not to be disregarded as a
positive factor,

He, therefore, feels these factors
along with the growing sense of
tradition that has been fostered over
the years, will undoubtedly spell
success for Albany's athletic pro-
gram,

Perhaps Mr, O'Brien's greatest
contribution to Albany has been
his modern approach to athletics,
He 1s an adyocate of athletics as

proposal was addressed to the Con
stitutional Convention of the State of
New York, and asked the body to
Mberaltze and equalize the New York
State voting age requirement, The
council pointed to the increased in-
volvement in government and the
higher educational level of this age

voting age.

Next Year’s Torch In Motion
Editors May Use New Format

Next year’s yearbook editor's have
already started thinking of how to
better the yearbook with new ideas,

Jim Folts and Judy Mills, co-
editors for next year’s book, want
the yearbook to be more of a photo=
essay type sel up rather than having
humerous copy-blocks.

This would mean, for instance,
that there would be'a page or two
concerned with concerts and th
numerous concerts would be repre=
Sented In the form of pictures only.
Pictures of these concerts may also
be scattered throughout the year=

sity organizations, The Univers
sity, they agree, Is getting too large

therefore propose to include some
