go.a long way in determining the general
fall aports picture at Albany this year. These events
are the first varsity soccer and cross-country en-
counters and the kickoff of the AMIA football program,
© The soccer and cross-country teams are suffering
badly from’ lack of seasoned competitors, Both squads
will be relying largely upon relatively untried per-
sonnel and that alone is enough to make any predic-
tion completely hypothetical. Coaches Munsey and
Garcia are well aware of the task they face, and both
have been trying for weeks now to establish the best
possible lineups they can compete with tomorrow.
The competence of the coaches and the spirit of the
players are there; but being pessimistic by nature,
all we can do is wish the two teams the best of luck,
The soccer game is home,\on Vets Field, at 2:00. A
large turnout never hurt arly team, but it would be
interesting to see if it would at Albany--catch?!
On Monday, September 27, the AMIA football season
is slated to begin, With cautious optimism and re-
served high hopes, we look forward to seeing the
league swing into what we believe can be its finest
season in a number of years,
Eight teams are entered in the “big league’? —
with the five Albany fraternities each entering a
team. There are two dormitory teams and one inde-
pendent squad. Early reports indicate that each team
has had a large turnout, and the enthusiasm felt in
conversations about the upcoming season is unparalle¢
in recent years,
Eight teams, all five fraternities, large turnouts,
unmatched enthusiasm--almost too good to be true!
Seriously, the pre-season indications all point toward
a highly successful and very rewarding season for the
AMIA football league, and no organization deserves it
more, It is our sincere hope that the officers selected
in the AMIA election next Wednesday will take full
advantage of the participants’ exuberance, willingness,
and cooperation to effect an efficiently run and well
coordinated season, One such successful season could
lead to a successful year,
which indeed would be an
asset to State’s athletic department,

ons for Optimism.”
‘the: opening session of the Central
Council Thursday, President® Richard
‘Thompson, said that he hoped the Coun-
ofl would have a productive year for the
schoo]. His semi-pessimistic attitude
is well-founded as the history of student
government at the University reveals.
In past years, Student Association
Presidents have faced the task of keep-
ving the enthusiasm of government rep-
resentatives alive. Last year, the situ-
ation became ridiculous as Art Johnston,
former SA President, found it increas-
ingly difficult to muster a quorum in
Senate,
The problems faced by Johnston pro-
vided much of the impetus behind the
formation of a new form of student
government,
We feel that this year will be different.
Our optimism is based on several fac-
tors.
One of these is the new government
itself. Under the new government struc-
ture, much of the unimportant work will
be handledby the commission and boards.
Thompson takes‘his job in the new
government seriously, He knows the
government’s strengths and weaknesses,
and the people in the government,
He is able to lead the Council and is
ready to take the initiative when it be-
comes necessary, More important he
knows that student government cannot
be run successfully as a ‘tone man
show,” one of the grievances cited
agains the government in the past.
This is evidenced in an interview with
the ASP when he said he hoped that he
could ‘‘delegate enough authority and
responsibility so that members of the
government do not become bored with
their area of study like. what happened
with Senate."
With his leadership 'and.the experience.
and enthusiasm of many_of the people
in the government, we feel that the stu-
dent body will finally have a productive
student government.
Glass Houses Part I
It is indeed gratifying that most of the
Greeks have taken steps to pay their
bills to the Torch. Sigma Alpha and
Kappa Beta had paid theirs, although
the Torch was not aware of Sig Alph’s
payment,
We are offended by the attitude of at
least one Greek in inferring that we are
willing to criticize the short coming of
the Greeks, If we had a policy of ignor:
ing praise-worthy Greek doings, this
attitude would have some justification.
Another Greek, in her zeal to defend
her group, revelas a slightly confused
interpretation of responsibility.
Somehow she is able to assert that
her group is showing wonderful respn-
sibility ‘by: paying a bill’at‘least four
months before it was ‘due, The check
was destroyed, and a new one was asked
for since the deadline for cashing the
first check‘had passed. This is-respon- +
sibility? <= ©
The biggest part of this problem
seems to be that the Presidents of-the
Greeks were student teaching during
the time of the billing. They were not
around to check their student mail,
and they did not appoint anyone. to
check it for them,
Results Lacking
The political system in Albany is com-
posed basically of a strong 44 year old
machine and an ineffectual youngreform
movement,
This is true to such an extent that the
feeble efforts of the reformers or Harder
Democrats or CURE Democrats have had
no effect except to place the machine
more on its toes,
We do not mean to say either that re-
form is good and Godly or that reform
is evil and Godless, We do say that the
reformers have slated people with little
or no appeal and with less success, The
only exception would be Daniel Ganeles
f our faculty,
"We do not deny any of the charges
against the machine. We say only that
if there is corruption it should be the
task of the reformers to obtain proof
and a conviction, We are tired of talk.
We reject the thought that the machine
can cover its errors through its control
of the local judiciary. Many of the charges
made by the reformers fall under the
jurisdiction of the state and not the city
or the county, Still we have heard only
talk and seen no legal action,
A New Mood
For years it has been fashionable to
criticize the music of young people. To-
“day there seems to be a new mood,
Anyone listening to WPTR, WTRY or
our own WSUA knows that several new
hits deal with our society and where its
headed. ‘Everyone's Gone to the Moon’?
is a brand new good example. The singer
asks us to evaluate our true goals. He
obviously prefers the problems on earth
to our space effort,
Donovan's ‘The Universal Soldier” is
another example. The young Scotsman
describes the armies of all ages, They
are composed by the bodies of the
world’s men from age 17 to 36, accord-
ing to him, He states that the orders
to fight now come from us. He states
that ‘‘this is not the way to put the end
to war,
We like the idea that high school and
college people are buying music with
some thought in it. We donot necessarily
agree with any of the reasoning ina song
such as Donovan's, but it is refreshing
to hear a song with meaning,
t's extremely Freudien!
Open Letter to Foreign Students
Speaking to you ts your fellow foreign student who has had the chance
of continuous stay on this campus for over three years. Experience has
been my best teacher, so,a little tip from me might be valuable.
Please, get into your books immediately; and if you happen to be
taking a’ course or twa which require term papers, start working on
your papers early enough, for writing term papers 1s our greatest
weakness. It 1s trontcal, but true, to say that petty tests called quizzes
count heavily in the making of your final grade; So, please, take every
one of these quizzes seriously, Maybe it will suffice to add that a dis~
agreement or an argument with a lady professor may earn you an un-
desired grade, I only wish I was capable of advising myself in 62,
Out of class you may also avold such provocative political questions
as “What do you think of America’s presence in Vietnam? What is
Kwame Nkruma doing with his political opponents? Isn't he a nut?”
Maybe my examples are extreme, but any question of that category 1s
not impossible,
More Interesting, however, are those social and friendly questions
which Tam afraid are directed particularly to African students, During
my freshman days, such questions varied from How many elephants
does your father own?’ to “Are you a member of the ‘head hunter’
tribe?” I had my ways of answering those questions which made my
inquisitive friends chuckle; but you might be unlucky to encounter a
question about “Tarzan” which, of course, you don’t know until you see
a couple of T.V, movies in this country.
Don’t, however, misunderstand those who ask such questions for
they are earnestly interested to learn about Africa, but they cannot
keep apace with the wind of change in the “Black Continent,” and,
by the way, who can?” Your friend might understand that their ques-
tons are antique if you play them a little game. Ask them to take you
downtown to the Hudson River to see for yourself the Indian tribesmen
barter beaver skins for Elizabethan gin!
In spite of everything I have attempted to say, this campus can be
very interesting if you only try to tolerate and understand these people.
It is a big campus now, but don't be surprised if a half of Waterbury
and Brubacher Halls come to learn of your first date, Here news
spreads lke a bush fire, but dies at the same rate. So friend:
get discouraged, join in the fun and receive informal education as
The campus and perhaps the Capital City have a lot to offer yuu.
Welcome and good luck. Let us meet at the next meeting
of International Student's Association.

definitely forcing, hoping North
would bid a major,
North now repeated the cue bid
to get South to choose the sult, and
South complied by bidding her tre

North had no fit in spades, and had
to force South to choosea secondary
sult.

the YF-12A is the hottest aircraft around.
Now Maj. Walter F. Daniel, test pilot for the YF-12A,
answers your questions about the world’s fastest
manned airplane and America’s Aerospace Team.
(Maj. Daniel, a test pilot since 1954, is a member
of the Society of Experimental Test Pilots, He
received a BS. degree in Aeronautical Engineering
from the University of Oklahoma. In February
1962, he set world class time-to-climb records in a
-38 jet trainer.)
Is the YF-12A the world’s fastest manned aircraft?
It certainly is, On May 1 of this year the YF-12A
(formerly known as the A-11) reclaimed the world
absolute speed record from the USSR. It was
clocked at 2,062 mph over Edwards Air Force Base.
How big is the YF-12A?
The exact dimensions of the YF-12A have not been
released yet. But it's approximately 100 feet long,
with about a 50-foot wingspan. That's half again
as big as our present interceptors!
Is the Alr Force training many men
‘as pilots these days?
Yes, very definitely. In spite of all you hear about
unmanned vehicles, the human pilot is still very
much in the picture. As a matter of fact, the Air
Force pilot quota is on the increase.
‘What other kinds of jobs does the Air Force offer?
Since it's one of the world's foremost technological
organizations, the Air Force has plenty of openin,
for scientists and engineers. There are also many
challenging and varied administrative-managerial
positions.
‘What do I have to do to become
Air For.
Air Force officer. The new two-year Air Force
ROTC program makes this method available to
men who have already completed a year or two of
their college education, For college graduates, if
you did not take advantage of ROTC, you can
get started through Air Force Officer Training
School (OTS), a three-month course open to both
men and women,
Can I keep up my studies while
I'm in the Air Force?
The Air Force encourages its men and women to
continue their educations. For instance, you may
‘qualify to study for a graduate degree during off-
duty hours, with the Air Force paying a substantial
part of the tuition,
What kind of future do I have in the Air Force?
A bright one. As we move further into the Aero-
space Age, the Air Force is going to grow even
more important. And you can grow with it!

ences with the ASP Monday afternoon with a discussion
of topics ranging from student membership on faculty
mentation to improve methods of Committees to expansion of SUNYA’s enrollment, In
regard to putting students on faculty committees, Dr,
Collins expressed his intention to accomplish this
“within the next few weeks,
At the present time, the
faculty committees are or-
ganizing for the year, and
their lists of members will
be compiled ina short time.
Once the faculty lists are
complete, President Col-
lins will appoint the stu-
dent members.
Dr, Collins indicated
Clifton C, Thorne, Vice President
of Student Affairs, is now working
through Central Council to obtain
the names of students who are ine
terested in working on such come
mittees,
that Dr,
He expressed the hope that stu
dents would have membership o
“practically all committees
Those which he would exclude would
be these concerned with determining
the future standing of a student o1
faculty member in the university,
Hiring Policies
Questions were raised as to hir
ing policies tn various areas of the
university, In regard to graduate
assistantships, Dr. Collins come
meuted, “We recruit as widely as
possible for our graduate assistant
ships, then we tke the most qual-
iffed people,”
In the area of administration, he
indicated that many people were
being brought in from other un
versitles because of "the shift
structural organization" which the
university 1s undergoing,
The administration 1s now divided
into three definite areas: student
Personnel, administrative macters,
and acadeinic affairs, This shift has
created many new’ positions, al-
though in many cases the duties of
these positions have not changed
Substantially,
In filling these positions, Dr,
Collins stated that “we try to got
the best person avaflable for ajob,"”
He added later that because the
structure was changing so rapidly,
it was often a matter of “taking the
people you have and fitting them
in
New Compus Expansion
Several questions were raised
concerning the new campus, Dr,
Collins stated that there had’ been
no formal attempt to survey st
dents now living on the new cam-
bus for suggestions for changing
future quadrangles,
This was due primarily to the
fact that “the dorms are not being
used as they were planned to be
used, They are overcrowded,”
He did indicate, however, that
minor changes will be built into
future quadrangles. While the out-
side appearance will remain the
same, the arrangement of rooms
on the inside will provide for the
housing of 84-100 more students,
The third quadrangle will also have
special adaptations for handicapped
students,
The conference concluded with a
discussion of the future enrollment
of SUNYA. Dr. Collins stated that
at the present Ume, projected en-
Follment is 10,000" full~tine equiv—
ents’ in 1974, Hy addded that
this might well be 15,000 people,””
The ew campus residences, to
gether with the old campus dorms,
will accommodate 6,000 people.
Dr, Collins also sald that, should
the need arise, there is room on
the new campus for expanding class=
rooms and residences to accommo-
date 20,000 students,
