Danes Will Try To Even 3-4 Record;
Ford Attempts To Get Offense Rolling

by Craig Bell

The Albany State Great Danes
football team will be trying to even
their season record at 4-4, Saturday
when they travel to the north coun-
try to face the Plattsburgh State Car-
dinals.

Plattsburgh’s 1-6 record does not
seem imposing, especially after con-
sidering last week's 55-0 loss to
Norwich, but offensive coordinator
John Creawarns the Danes will have
to be ready, “It's Plattsburgh’s last
game of the season and the last ever
for the seniors sothey will becoming
after us with nothing to lose.”

The teams have met six previous
times in Albany's short football
history. Plattsburgh won their first
three meetings when Albany was still
a club, but the Danes have turned it
around since reaching varsity status
winning the last three mestings. Last
year saw Albany romp over the
fallen Birds, 66-12.

Base Defense

Defensively, Albany will try to
stay in their base 4-4 defense and

the job of tackles Steve Schoen and
either John Lawrence or Dave

Harry McDonough plus the three

Ruggers Nabbed By

by Ken Kurtz

This past Saturday, the ruggers of
Albany State were defeated by
Williams College, 9-0, on the losers’
home field. Field conditions were
not optimal, as the game was
characterized by poor ball handling
because of slick field conditions.

Scoring Opens Up

Scoring openes up midway
through the first half as Williams
College successfully moved the ball
into Albany territory. The drive was
capped by Williams’ Tom Rondeo,
as he booted a 25-yard penalty kick
through the uprights for a 30
Williams lead.

Both teams moved up and down
the field for the remainder of the
half, but neither team could put the

ball over the goal line. Albany was
assessed a large number of penalties
and only poor penalty kicking by
Rondeo prevented Williams from in-
creasing their lead. At the half, the
score remained 3-0 in favor of the
visiting team.
Neither Team Scores

cond half action began as a
repeat of the first half a neither team
could score a try, However, ten
minutes into the second half,
Williams College executed a
picture-perfect play. Reversing their
field, the Williams scrumbacks,
utilizing expert passing, managed to
break the opposite side winger into
the clear, and Sam Hanchgett swept
in for the try. The conversion kick by
Williams’ Rondeo was successful,

while spelling the injured Cleary.

The Danes will be looking to get
the bugs out of their often sputtering
offense, “We have got to climinate
mental errors,” said Crea, “and put
on a real good show. ”

The game, while not one of the
tougher the Danes have had this
year, poses the Danes with one big
problem; that is, the one of overcon-
fidence.

The Student Affairs Council of

former Class of ‘78 President Marc
Benecke's appeal of his 15-month
suspension from SUNYA,

The suspension, which is effective

Dean for Student Affairs Neil

alleged theft of $3000 of Class funds,
According to Class Council
members, Benecke admitted the
theft when he referred himself to the
SUNYA judicial system on Oct. 7.

Computer Causes TAP Delay

by Jonathan Hodges
and Thomas Martello

‘Changes in mode of operation and
shortage of equipment have been
cited by a number of financial aid
and computer officials as the reasons
for the delay in Tuition Assistance

send awards to over half of some
305,000 students presently applying

ministered by the Higher Education
Services Corporation.

1974. 1 was the result of the merging
of two separate agencies, the Higher
Education Assistance Corporation
and the Regents Examination and
Scholarship Center of the State
Education Department

The former of these agencies was

me into existence in

in charge of the loan program, while
the latter dealt with student grants.

With the formation of the HESC
came the creation of TAP, which
replaced the old Scholar Incentive
Program and raised the maximum
yearly grants from $600 to $1500.

In its first year, the TAP program
served 235,000 students at 1 cost of
$79 million. This year's figure is ex-
pected to exceed $170 million.

From 197410 1975 HESC used the
processing methods of its compo-
nent agencies

The loan program was processed
at a computer center on Wolf Road.
The new TAP program was ad-
ministered through the use of the
State Education Department's com-
puter which had previously process
ed grant applications.

At the end of 1975, Governor
Hugh Carey appointed Eileen
Dickinson as the new HESC presi-
dent, Dickinson replaced J. Wilmer

plained Dickinson, “An agreement
was made. . . to give up the loan

Ed. computer and get ontothis huge

“When we were at Wolf Road, the
only thingthat we really handled was
the loan program," said Director of
Data Processing David Perry. “The
TAP program was run on a CDC
3300 computer at the Education
Department. At Wolf Road we had a
Honeywell 2000 system. The 2000
system was not significantly large
enough, nor could it be raised to a
high enough level to handle both the
TAP and the loan program."

Perry comiinued, “A decision had
to be made as to whether we should
go out and get a new computer that
would be able to handle both TAP

According 10 Dickinson, the
problems started when the computer
conversion began. Both the Wolf
Road loan and the State Education
computers were being slowly phased
out as the OGS Honeywell 6060 was
programmed.

“We had dreadful problems with
the computer, part of which were the
result of the inadequate hardware
and software,” said Dickinson

Computer hardware is any
physical piece of the computer while
software is the instructions given to
the machine

Dickinson elaborated on the com-
puter problems. “They really hada't
estimated properly on the role and
the needs of this corporation for
computer services. We don't just
generate interesting statistics. The
very heart of the processing of loans
and ‘TAP is in that machine.”

‘economic programs we face,” the
Democratic President-elect said.

He said the biggest domestic
problem facing the country is the
economy and he intends to make “a
balanced attack on inflation and un-
employment,” which he called “the
twin evils.” But any action must
await a determination of what has
happened to some $10to $15 billion
dollars budgeted, appropriated but
not spent by the Ford administtra-
tion, and also an analysis of the
economic situation at the present
time, he said. Carter siad he believes
“the only true long-term solution” to
U.S. economic problems is through
jobs in the private sector.

“If the decline continues, con-
sideration of a tax reduction for low
and middle income citizens may be
in order . . . we must find ways to
increase employment without in-
creasing inflation, through the use of
private incentives to the private sec-
tor to hire and train the unemployed
and through employment programs
carefully targeted to areas of greatest
need,” Carter said.

Concerning another of his cam-
paign promises — to reorganize and
streamline the federal bureau
— Carter said he didn't un-
derestiinate the difficulties thereof,
and envisions the process as one that
would continue throughout his time
in the White House. It may take a
year to develop the best program for
reorganization and if so, he said,
that time is well spent.”

Court to Rule on Late Ballots

by Jonathan Hodges

‘The question of whether or not to

ding to NYPIRG lawyer Dennis
Kaufman,

The NYPIRG suit, which was
filed last Wednesday, is in response
to the failure by the State Board of
Elections to send students their
absenice ballots on time. The group
claims that the number of students
involved statewide could exceed 20,-
000,
“All the papers have now been
served, Judge Casey signed an order
to show cause, making a return date

around a New York District Court
ruling that allowed all overseas

time, phone bills, etc, working
statewide with a number of other
groups, ultimately registering close
to 100,000 students,” said the
chairperson of NYPIRG's Board of
Directors Chris Aidun. “Of course,
‘we ultimately felt responsible for the
fate of their registration.”

In the SUNYA voter registrati
drive, NYPIRG worked closely with
‘SASU in order toreach a maximum
number of students.

‘According to a SASU press
release last week, both groups were
named as co-plaintifis,

However, Aidun said, “SASU at
this time is not a part of the suit,
When we told them about the suit,
they said they would help us get
some affidavits. At that time they
said nothing about becoming plain-
tiffs of the suit. The only thing they
did for the lawsuit was tocall AP and
UPI and tell them they were filing
the lawsuit with us.

“From what | understand, NYP-

President Diane Piche. “I wasn't

Academic

by Teresa Sutton

‘A search for a new vice president
of academic affairs at SUNYA is be-
ing conducted by a committee ap-
pointed by President Emmet B.
Fields. Former Vice President Dr.
Phillip Sirotkin announced his
resignation last January and left the
office in late May.

Fields appointed the Search Com-
mittee to offer him recommen-
dations in March.

Decision By January

The committee hopes to come toa
final decision by Jan, 1, 1977 accor-
ding to committee member Robert
McFarland, from the Office of
Graduate Affairs.

Although the committee will

go into the processing computer
because of problems of improperly
completed forms.

According to Dickinson, only 25
per cent of the applications areclean.
Close to 75 per cent are kicked out of
the system to manual
assistance.

‘She continued, “We thought there
was a limit to how many pieces of
paper anybody could handle human-
ly and come out consistently on the
student's side in choosing the best
[payment] schedule, When you get
the program, you can, when you
all of your variables correct, un-
cerringly choose the best schedule.”

“In mid-June, we were advised
that if the new edit system ran into
trouble there was no way we could
go back und use the State Education
Department's computer, which was
our fail-safe system,” related HESC
Student Financial Need Analyst
John Kenny. “From that moment
on, we were committed to moving
forward with the new edit program
that we were working on, with no

to handle applications in any
other fashion. It took us until mid-
‘August, about eight weeks behind
normal. processing time, before we
could really start processing with
any impunity.”

‘An additional reason for the com-

receive

puter foul-up is the emancipated stu-
dent. An emancipated student is one
who claims financial independence,
thereby becoming, in many cases,
cligible for TAP’s maximum grant of
$1500,

“We have about 46,000
applications that are in the eman-
cipated student category," said Ken-
ny. “They have all gone through the
edit process so we now know who
they are. TAP petitions necessary for
these people have gone toall but 14,-
000 of those 46,000."

According to the Empire State
Report, about 25 per cent of all
applications this year have been
received from emancipated students.
‘When the student receives the HESC
green petition for emancipation, the
petition must then be completed and
resubmitted to the corporation
before an award can be issued.

“We started sending out lists (of
students whose applications had
been received] on July 30 when we
knew that we would not get the
program out in timetomeet registra~
tion dates,” said Dickinson.

“Out of 1,000 names of students
applying for emancipation status on
the SUNYA rosters, there are none
that have an A-code next to their
name,” stated SUNYA Director of
Financial Aids Donald Whitlock,
“An A-code means that an award

has been granted. According to the
HESC rosters, not one SUNYA stu-
dent who applied for emancipation
has had final action taken.”

“As far as the emancipated stu-
dent is concerned, we have sent to
colleges, for the first time, some of
the green forms [emancipation
petitions) for distribution to people
who have not already filed or who
have not already received a green
petition,” said Kenny. “We have ap-
proved approximately 8,000 awards,

Coed Dorms Mean
Good and Bad Times

Does co-ed dorm living mess up
your head? Yes, no and sort of, ac-
cording to two Stanford University
psychiatrist who reported their fin-
dings in Human Behavior
magazine,

The pair quizzed 900 freshmen
students at a large public school in a
small town where most students live
in university housing. They found
that overall, co-ed dorms are more
pleasant, relaxed, friendly, en-
Joyable and that the atmosphere
Promotes greater personal growth
than single sex living arrangements,

They discovered men who opt for
co-ed living have higher academic
and career goals, who like to drink
beer and who think of themselves as
easy going and “ontop of the world.”

Women in co-ed housing,
however, were found to be quite
different than their female
classmates stuck in women-only
dorms. Women who lived under the
same roof us men had higher
academic aspirations, took part in
more social and cultural activities
‘and engaged in more of what the psy
chiatrists call “impulsive-deviant
behavior.” which means they oc-
casionally break school rules and

drink hard liquor.

These women also hada better self
image than other university first year
women, they described themseives as
“easygoing”, they were less likely to
view themselves as cautious and they

laced more emphasis onfriendship,
independence and variety in new ac-
tivities. They placed less
emphasis on traditional heterosex-
ual dating.

Drop in Goals

One year later the biggest change
for students living in co-ed dorms
was a drop in career goals. Fewer
students still wanted to get that doc-
torate degree that had seemed soim-
portant several months earlier and
they looked with more disfavor on
demanding careers than did other
students who didn't live in co-ed
housing,

The two psychiatrists also report
th students from co-ed dorms
made more trips to the student
health center, indicating higher
levels of stress in co-ed living. For
the women however, it might not
have been all that stressful; 21 per-

Women Find
Power Increasing

LONDON (AP) Women are assum-
ing a growing and more important
role in Western European politics,
stepping into jobs as Cabinet
ministers, party leaders oF top
ides.

But some who have made it to the
top caution that their political
success doesn't mean the battle for
equality is over.

“One must not imagine that the
women's issue is suddenly solved
because a woman has become
foreign minister,” says Karin Soden,
Sweden's first woman foreign
minister. She serves in the cen
government of Thorbjorn Falldin
which came to power in the Sept. 19
election,

“I'm tired of being regarded as a
phenomenon,” says Margaret
Thatcher, who in February 1975
became Britain's first woman party
leader. She would also become the
country's first’ woman prime
minister if her Conservative party
ins the next national election,
“The idea of a woman making
decisions and giving instructions is
not yet easily acceptable in Greece
and is viewed suspiciously by some
male colleagues,” says Lina
who in October became
felury of education and
only the third woman since World
War II to hold a Greek cabinet post.

West Germany's outgoing presi-

dent of the Bundestag, the lower
house of parliament, is a woman:
Annemarie Reger.
Italy, Britain, Austria,
The Netherlands and
yeden all have women in t
Cabinets. Antwerp, Belgium, has 1
woman mayor.

women are far from fulfilling their
potential ina field longconsidered in

RICIN POISONING

A. University of Wisconsin
biochemist says it is possible that the
“Legionnaires Disease,” which killed
29 people in Philadelphia last
summer, resulted from a deadly tox-
in which may have been intentional-
ly sprayed into the air. ~

Doctor Edward Schantz suggests
that the possible cause of the
mysterious illness was “Ricin,” a
deadly toxin extracted from castor
beans,

Schantz stresses he has no hard
evidence implicating “Ricin", and
that another equally deadly toxin
‘might have been involved,

The doctor states, however, that
he studied the ricin toxin while
working for the army at Fort
Dietrick in the 1950's, He says that
the lung infections and patterns of
death in victims of the Legionnaires
Disease were completely consistent
with ricin poisoning, He suggests the
poison might have been ad-
ministered by the use of an aerosol
spray,

Doctor Schantz adds that scien-
tific tests to detect the presence of the
toxin in the lungs of the victims were
never conducted. He says that it
would probably be “too late" today
to determine if ricin had somehow
been employed by assassins,

INDIAN’S CHOICE
Navajo Indians working at coal

Representatives of the Navajo

that their current union health plans

S.ALMAS!
from their own tribal medicine doc-
tors,

One of the Navajo representatives,
Larry Spear, explains "Many of
those miners would rather sec

medicine men than white doctors.”
Spear terms the request a “serious
matter.”

‘Spear says: “Sometimes a regular
doctor will see you for only five
minutes, while a medicine man will
come and live with you for three
days, When you look at it that way,
you pay less for what you get.”

TAX EVADERS

‘A new study of America’s 148
largest corporations indicates that
many of them paid little or no U.S.
income tax last year,

The study, compiled by the House
Ways and Means Committee, found
that 1 major corporations used a
variety of loopholes to legally avoid
all income taxes last year.

Among the 1} non-tax payers, for
instance, were the Bethlehem Steel

proximately §$25$ million; and

Unequal Exposure Time

by Joe Feld ;

The election is over, the ballots are in, and
the electoral votes have been counted, Jimmy
Carter made his 22 month campaign a success
by defeating an appointed president. But, just
‘aa the Nixon pardon brought indignation
among the people who believed that all were
equal under the law, the 1976 Presidential
campaign not only disregarded the law, it
made a farce out of it.

In 1934, Congress the Com-
‘munications Act. It included the now famous
Section 315, allowing for equal exposure time
for candidates runningfor political office. The
Jaw applied to all types of broadcasting, in-
cluding television although TV was not a
significant medium at the time, Nevertheless,
broadcasters were bound by the law to provide
equal time to ail political candidates for office,
from county clerk to president.

This brings us to the debates. Not only did
‘the League of Women Voters disregard the
‘equal time law, they set‘out in the Nixonian
tradition to circumvent it in any way they
knew possible, Ford and Carter knew this, but
they certainly weren't going to argue for the
Appearances of any minor party candidates
‘that might tend to take voters away from their
column,

‘The League of Women Voters blatantly dis-
missed the appeals of Eugene McCarthy and
Lester Maddox to appear on.the debates, as
required by law under Section 315. In fact, all
of the third party candidates technically had a
chance of winning the election, being on the
ballot in enough states to win an electoral ma-
jority.

The legitimacy of these third party can-
didates' campaigns is hardly the point. Those
‘who based their arguments against these open
forums on the basis of practically miss the en-
tire point behind America’s political process
process that supposedly allows for anyone

with dissenting opinions to obtain national of-
fice and equal time in the media while attemp-
ting to do so,

During the 1976 campaign, we saw that
le clearly violated, It is interesting to
note that the last time Presidential debates
were held, Section 315 was suspended by the
FCC so that the networks could not be held
liable for showing other candidates later on.
‘This time around, realizing that they probably
couldn't get away with the same sneaky tactic,
the FCC turned the other cheek as the League
of Women Voters called the debates “public
forums” instead of news events, The distine-
tion is curcial. The League invited who they
wanted to fpeak before a small audience in a
theater, Television would be allowed to cover
the event if they wished.

‘And to no one’s surprise, the networks
desided to do just that. If the networks had
decided not to cover the event, would the can-
didates have agreed to appear? | think not.
‘And why, when the sound disappeared for
nearly half an hour, did the candidates wait for
the television crew to correct the difficulties,
instead of continuing on for the studio
audience, who could still hear the candidates?

We see an obvious violation of the public
trust by a variety of interest groups, including
the so-called impartial League of Women
Voters,

The Communications Law of 1934 gave
third party candidates the right to be heard as
equals among the major party choices. Twice
in 16 years, the American people have been
denied the opportunity to hear dissenting
opinions in a national clection.

‘The future of American democracy rests on
the people, who should realize that it is they
who should make the decision of who they
wish to support, not be dictated by the League
of Women Voters and the television networks.

The Never-Printed Letter

by Jack Simmons
Dear Penthouse,

I would like tocommend the people respon-
sible for publishing your fine magazine. | real-
ly enjoy your letters, articles and most your
Pictorial essays. It's a delight to come home
and find your magazine in my mailbox. The
reason I am writing is to relate an experience
and a night I'l never forget. I've been seeing
this girl (I'll call her Mary) for the past six
months. Although we usually share common
interests, Mary is what you might calla prude.
She's the type of gir! who meets me on the
front door step for every date. | have never
been inside her house, nor, for that matter,
have | ever met her parents,

Last week, when I arrived at Mary's house
for our traditional Friday night date, 1 was
greeted at the front door by a sensational look-
ing chick identifying herself as Mary's sister,
After introducing herself as Sheri, she explain-
ced with regrets, that Mary was visiting friend
in the hospital, and woulda’t return until later,
Sensing my frustration, Sheri invited me into
‘wait, I reasoned with myself; what the hell, the
night was a lost cause anyway, I might as well
hang out. Stepping into the house, | realized
why Mary had never introduced me to her
family, her little sister was a knockout. LLook-
ing at Sheri, I'd suy she was about five foot six
and still growing, So was |. She had beautiful
brown hair that fell to her shoulders and
dazzling greeneyes. She was wearing a pair of
tight jewns that Mother Nature had just finish-
ed filling, and 4 gauze shirt, on which she
hadn't done a bad job either. As we were sit-
ting, watching television, Sheri divulged that
her parents had gone away for the weekend, 50
she was the only one home. Occasionally, she
would seductively stroll past me pretending
there was something to be done in the kitchen,

After offering me almost everything in the
house, she slid up to me and asked if 'd like to
play a game, With as much calmness as J could
muster, | inquired as to her meaning. She ex-
plained that although the game involved a cer-
ain amount of risk, wcunning mancouldeasi-
ly get what he wanted, 1 laughed to myself;
what kind of risk were we taking, the house
would be empty for a couple of hours; so 1
agreed to play, Sheri instructed me to meet her
in her bedroom in five minutes, {t was then
that | realized this was not the little girl her
parents once knew. Suddenly, | began to ques-
tion my actions: certainly this wasn't right, but
‘what the hell, neither was Watergate,

Make a Deal”. | couldn't understand how my
super conservative girlfriend could have such
a swinging litle sister, Soon, 1 heard Shesi's
voice calling me into her bedroom. Sprinting
down the hall, my head was dizzy with eu-
phoria and 1 pamted with excitement
Reaching her room, 1 found Sheri sprawled
‘out on the bed, with a Monopoly board
between her legs. Slowly, but confidently | a
proached the bed while undoing my neck bi

into her eyes for meaning. After atender

her every whim. She commanded me to re
shuffle the Chance cards. Nervously she made
the first move, rolling two sixes and going
directly to jail. Now it was my turn. I'd have to
show all my experience. As | beg:

After about half an hour of
bourdplay, 1 almost blew my wad, Luckily
Sheri lent me five thousand dollars

nicely when we both heurd someone coming

toward the bedroom. “Sheri, are you tn your
room?" I recognized the voice as Mary's. How
the hell was 1 going to explain this tw he
Mary and { had talked at length one 1

ubout social mores, and she confided in me
that group Monopoly was not for het

I's not that she would put anybody down
for it, she just didn't have any preference
towards it. Il never forget the look on her Lave
as she opened the door and saw us, But,
strange thing happened. Mary silently ap
prouched us and sat down on the bed. Joking
at me with traces of approval, she said, "Give
ime the nicest piece possible.” To suy 1 way
shocked would be un understatement she
didn't seem to mind what was happening!
After handing her the silver racing car, she
screamed with delight and threw the dice. It
wasn't long before she had control of the
whole board. Watching her work the dice real-
ly had affected me. 1 wanted to get my hands
‘on that community chest, We stayed up play-
ing around the entire night until, out of com-
plete exhaustion, | had to pull out, | stayed
around to watch the two sisters go ut it, and it

Carter because Gerald Ford is a fucking
moron." Gerald Ford graduated at the top of
his class from Yale law school, but undergrads
at our prestigous SUNYA believe that he is
stupid, Another clever remark was “I'm voting
for Ford because he's doing a great job.”
When these people were asked to give some
‘examples to back up their point, they usually
mumbled something about being late for class.
‘There is more to voting than steppingintoa
booth, shutting your eyes and Miippingthe but-
tons. With a little work, a trained
seal could do that. One should do
some research into the candidates before
he/she casts their ballot. A democracy cannot
begin to exist in this country until we develop
an informed electorate. It takes no more than
fan hour to read some magazine's condensed
form of the candidates’ positions. If SUNYA
represents the electoral elite of this country,
then the chances for democracy look slim. By
the way, why did you votefor your candidate?

honesty

To the Editor:
During the tenure of my office ! have placed
highest my duty to serve the populous of this
institution to the best of my ability with in-
discriminate honesty and undaunted integrity
Student Association President Steve
DiMco would not settle for anything less and
neither would 1. Recently, regarding the com-
ments by Thomas Scherbenko in the Albany
Student Press, | was understandably upset
and felt a need to express my belief
Motivating me ta scek this office was the
lure of power, not power for power's sake, but
power to due good. To work forthe people,to
right some wrongs, and to make this Univers
tyamore efficient and productive place for its
inhabitants. All of my energies have been
devoted to these goals. You, the student,
showed faith in me at election time, and I
assure you that that faith has not been
betrayed.
As for the indignant comments in the ASP
by Thomas Scherbenko, | would like to
apologize to the students of this University for

the actions of one of our fellows. | implore
those who read this newspaper, a reflection of
the student body, not to dwell on that isolated
incident in their judgment of this university's
student body. In my dealings with other un-
iversity student bodies and the administration
of this one, | have always held our students in
the highest esteem. | assure you this incident
will not change my beliefs,

{ urge all of my fellow students to stop by
{CC 346} and exchange ideas with me at your
convenience. The only way I could be effective
for you is if you communicate effectively with
me,

To the Editor:
1am writing in response to Lisa Bradley's
letter of October 15. We are also taking PEC
170-coed basketball, and we also have Robert
Lewis as our teacher. But we are having none
of the problems that she mentioned in her
letter. We have a fun, competitive class and a
tremendous amount of learning in the line of
basketball skills and ballhandling takes place.

‘Sure, at the beginning it was tough for us,
too, but we weren't “asked to drop” thecourse
and we all stuck it out. Much to our benefit!
We never play girls against the guys. The
coach doesn't try to humiliate us. We do play
along with the guys in order to improve our
skills,

Of course, we're not suggesting that basket-
ball remain coed (we'd probably suggest just
the opposite), we're just saying that Coach
Lewis has been fair with us and has definitely
(aught good basketball. Perhaps next
semester there will be a girls’ class and a guys’
class and Lisa Bradley can takethe course and
Jearn what we've learned —how to play basket-

Endangering Effectiveness

Perhaps in reaction to the antagonistic relationship between last
year’s Bauman-Meckler empire and the Fields regime, Student
Association President Steve DiMeo has been bending over backwards
to engender good feeling between this year’s SA and the administration.
This is, in theory, a good thing. But as a student representative, DiMeo .
has been bending over too far, endangering the power of his office,
endangering his own effectiveness, and at the very least, endangering his
own spine,

When SUNYA students returned to school this semester, they found
the number of library operating hours drastically reduced. Early in
September, DiMeo threatened to organize a protest if the library hours
weren't completely restored within a week. A week passed, the hours
were not completely restored, and DiMeo remained dissatisfied.
Administrators cited red tape as the problem and suggested waiting it
out. DiMeo apparently took their advice, since there never was a
protest. And everyone's still waiting.

Later in the semester, bulldozers rolled in to scrape and level off a
grassy area near Colonial Quad. Construction was finally to begin ona
long-planned parking lot. A group of Colonial students rallied to block
construction. DiMeo negotiated with the administration and came out
conceding defeat, having settled for a compromise — winning the
student some concessions which included neither building the parking
lot elsewhere not killing it completely.

Instead of confiding in SA Vice President Gary Parker and his other
colleagues, DiMeo has fallen into the unfortunate habit of running to
the adminstration whenever the milk spills. At the same time, Parker
and the members of SA have lent DiMeo little guidance and support.

Administration advice is fine for a well-rounded perspective, but all
too often DiMeo is not skeptical enough. He swallows too much too
fast, without scrutinizing his sources and ends up losing his student
perspective.

No executive can be expected to function as a separate entity.
Politically, varied personalities are healthy. A most pressing internal
need at SA is a cabinet for DiMeo. He needs a group of students to
advise him, to channel information and ideas to him. Right now it seems
that his cabinet is over in the administration building, and that’s no way
to run any student government.

Quote of the Day:
Examinations are formidableeven to the best prepared, for the greatest fool may ask

‘more than the wisest man can answer.

COM ONE on sarsnn

By ED MOSER

‘There are some performers so out-
standing that, even when cast in a
secondary role, they go on to steal
the show. Such a musician is Lou
London, who was sideman for
folksinger Seul-Broudie at the Freeze
Dried Coffeehouse this past
weekend.

Broudy himself is no slouch, A
man who pursued graduate study in
folklore at the University of Penn-
sylvania, Broudy has great variety in
his songs and subject matter. But
putting London on the same stage
with him is like an Eric Clapton
appearance at a John Mayall con-
cert. The instrumentalist wizard is
bound to upstage the man with top
tilling.

London nigh saved the first half of
Brotidy's show. Perhaps because of
his long study of folklore, Broudy
tends to treat his. material too
professionally. He often sounded
likea music professor demonstrating
a piece in class, instead of an enter-
tainer who must enthrall his
audience, He came on u tad too
restrained, Take the words of the
Johnny Cash tunel Never Got Over
Those Blue Eyes’

I see them everywhere.

J miss che arms that held me,

When all the love was there

This is tear-jerker material worthy
of Loretta Lynn, But when Broudy
mouthed these words, he me
stated them, while London, playing

accompaniment on acoustic. stec!
guitar, made the listeners feel the
lyrics, In Hank Williams ‘I'm So
Lonesome 1 Could Cry, London's
steel guitar conveyed the specific
sound of a “lonesome whippoorwill”
of the general sentiment of heart-
break. A wonderfully sensuous,
resonating sound, like the echoes
produced in the sound chamber-
belfry of a cathedral,

The show eventually turned into
an impromptu atmosphere of mad
fun. Tuning up for a song, Broudy’s
harp and London's mandolin im-
itated the banjo duel of
“Deliverance,” One particularly
anarchistic piece combined elements
of a German ballad, a country waltz
and the ‘sound off one, two, three,
four sound off!” army marching
chant of old World War I! movies.

Broudy was now successfully
playing the role of a Dave Bromberg,
serving as a translator of traditional
American music and a lightning rod
for super accompanying musi

That ‘super musician’ in this
oo short last set was Low London,
How to describe his ineredible man-
dolin play?

London stands, his face impish,
his eyelids fluttering, his trembling

breathing in cach note. He
adores every moment, When he
plays fast, his notes tumble over one
another in exbiliarating quickness,
like a runaway Jaugh one can no
longer control, When he plays slow.

Gridders Blank Plattsburgh; Suffer Poor Second Half

continued from page sixteen

cia's desperation pass was batted
down by linebacker John Verutol.
Albany took over.

Four plays later, on a third and
passing situation, the Plattsburgh
secondary was caught playing close
up to the Dane ends. Fullback
DeBlois burst through the middle
and galloped 70 yards for a score, as
the Albany bench prayed no one
would “clip”, No one did, The final
score of the made it 27-0.

Following the game, Dane coach
Bob Ford said, “It's tough when you
win 27-0 and it still eaves a bad taste
in your mouth.” The reason Ford
could complain about a shutout vic-
tory was the fact that he witnessed

the comedy of errors both teams
staged in the second half. A descrip-
tion of just a portion of the third
quarter's antics will suffice to show
how bad it got:

Albany intercepts, but a fine 28-
yard return is spoiled by a clippi
penalty, Albany fumbles the ball
away onits first down. Albany tackle
Steve Shoen knocks the ball out of
the Plattsburgh quarterback’s
hands, and Albany recovers. Albany
fumbles, but recovers. A Plattsburgh
cornerback unnecessarily bumps an
Albany receiver though the ball is
well overthrown, and is called for
pass interference. A bad snapruinsa

~ ‘It was a sudden, almoat merciless-
ly swift end. But it was, nevertheless,
the end for the 1976 version of the
Albany State soccer team. It ended
at 43:49 of the second half as
Brockport’s' Arnie Armstrong
slammed a penalty shot past a
desperately diving Dario Arango.

It ended Saturday on the marshy
confines of the Albany soccer field as
the Golden Eagies handed the Danes
@ 2-1 defeat before an estimated
‘crowd of 300—second largest of the
season.

For Brockport, the season con-
tinues as they move on tothe NCAA
tournament. For Albany, there is
nothing left but the memories of the
season that

“The kids played really hard,” said
‘a downcast Albany soccer coach
William Schieffelin, “But they just
couldn't do it.”

But they almost did. Trailing 1-0
for what seemed like theentire game,
Albany forward Frank Selcahad tied
the score with a point-blank goal off
@ scramble with only 18 minutes
remaining in the contest.

It seemed like that would be the
springboard the hosts needed toturn
the game around, The Danes seemed
fired-up, and, as the seconds wore
down, it seemed that.if Albany did
ot score, it would surely go into
‘overtime,

But not this day. Brockport had
cleared the ball out of their own end
and made one final attack with only

two minutes remaining. Controlling
the ball almoat at will, the Eagles

the net as Arango made
save after save,

‘And then it happened, With Steve
Klassen sending the ball in from the
left corner, Armatrong came up with
it as Arango was being screened out
of the play. Armstrong booted it and
Stanley Gage made a desperate
attempt to save it. He did, but unfor-
tunately for Albany, he used his
hands—something only a goalie can
do,

Armstrong's shot was sent over
the net, but he was awarded a penal-
ty kick. With the ball 18 yards out,
Armstrong came inalone on Arango
and booted a blistering shot to the
upper left corner of the net. Arango
lay helplessly on the ground for
minutes not wishing to get up, the
crowd seemed to share his disap-
ointment,

Albany recovered enough to get
the ball downfield but were unableto
et off a good shot as the clock ran
out,

‘The game was played on what can
only be descrived as a cross between
Davy Jones’ Locker and the Florida
Everglades. “The most disappointing
thing in the game,” said Schieffelin,
“was that the field was not a soccer
field. It was more like a cesspool,
There are other fields around the un-
iversity that we could have played

Brockport got on the score board
quickly as the game opened, thanks
to Klaasen’s corner kick. The kick
cleared a few Albany defenders on
the fly and came to Dan Burnsteinin
front. The fullback then booted a
six-yarder past Arango for the goal
at $:34 of the first, and Brockport led
1-0.

‘And although both teams had
their opportunities after that, the
score remained that way until half=
time. Brockport had the best
chances, but was unable to convert,

Jn the second half, both teams

came out strong. With ten minutes
gone, the Eagles beganto pepper the

Klaasen and Luca Foresta,
. Albany seemed to be regrouping,
but once again, Brockport began to
dominate play. A wicked shot by
Bob Cupello traveled just over the
net. Then Gavin Timony slammed a
header, but it went just wide,

Halfway through the period,
Albany came alive, Keeping the ball
tied up in the Brockport zone,
Albany began to altack. Paul
Schiesel cluded goalie Rhett King
and booted a shot that appeared to
be headed for the net. Defenseman
Ron Cupello came over and got a leg
on it just in time for the, save.

Danes Blank Plattsburgh, 27-0

by Ed Moser

The Albany Great Danes football
squad scored four touchdowns inthe
first half Saturday en route to a 27-0
shutout of the Plattsburgh Cardinals
at Plattsburgh, The victory evened
the Danes record at 4-4 and gave the
team ashot at ending the season over
500 with @ win against Springfield
next week.

A Dane blitzkrieg in the opening
two quarters was followed by a
bumbling, lackluster second half in
which neither team scored,

‘After an exchange of downs
following the kick-off, the Danes
proceeded to annihilate Plattsburgh
with four consecutive touchdown
series, each characterized by the "big
play”,

Early in the first quarter, Albany
‘was stalled at fourth and two on its

own 49 yard line. yet the Danes
pulles their patented fake punt play
as Dave Ahonen connected ona 33
sd pass to wide-open tight end Gus
Faddoul. On the very next down,
Ahonen punched through a hole in
the Plattsburgh left side and outran
his opponents to the goalline, A
Larry Leibowitz point after was
good for a 7-0 lead,

Fullback Tom DeBlois and split
end iynn Pinkston were largely
responsible for the next touchdown.
Deblois had runs of 25 and 13 yards
on the scoring drive, while Pinkston
ran for six points,

After the game, DeBlois, who
rushed for an amazing 155 yards in
the first half, commented he had
been helped by “good linemen." To
say the least, Throughout the first
half DeBlois exploited the many

practice in Saturday's game against
four

holes opened up for him by the
Danes offensive line of Steve Berndt,

Roncone and Bob Scheuchenko,

In between the fullback's two
runs, Pinkston made a great play by
arching back for a diving snag of
quarterback Fred Brewington’s un-
derthrown 32-yard bomb. In all, it
took only six plays for Albany to
move 59 yards.

Alter cornerman Rich Heimerle
had broken up Plattsburgh passes in
two long-yardage situations, the
Danes fielded a punt and marchedto
the Cardinal 39,

‘At this point, an Albany spotter
could be overheard in the pressbox
radioing data down to the field,

“We got a cornerback isolated on
the left side. Might want to throw
long."

Brewington must have heard, for
‘on the next play he hit Pinkston with
a 39-yard touchdown pass. Good
observation, good prophecy.
Leibowitz had his kick blocked this
time, so the tally stood at 20-0.

Until then, the Danes’ front line
had pretty much stopped the Curds*
Funning game, and the linebackers
were plugging the inside holes and
thwarting the outside runs. Faced
with a three touchdown deficit,
however, Plattsburgh managed its
deepest penetration of the game to
the Albany 14.

Vassar and Columbia-Green the
evening before, Thursday's perfor-

In the first game of the Herkimer
match, Albany jumped off to a 7-3

Albany's first four points, while

UAS Continues«Profitable Trend

by Tom Martello

UAS has reported a net income of
$220,143 for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1976, according to an an-
nual report released by General
Manager E. Norbert Zahm.

University Auxiliary Services
provides the SUNYA campus with
services such as cafeterias, check
cashing, amusements, washing
machines and the bookstore.

The net income figure is based on
the total net intake of the various
operating units which comprise
UAS. The figure also reflects a
deduction of $87,225 allocated for
the support of program services not

controlled directly by UAS such
as Mohawk Campus and the Glen
House,

OF the major operating units of
UAS, food service accounted for the
largest chunk of the profits, averag-
ing 35.3 per cent of the total net in-
come, This includes income from the
six student dining halls, (wo small
satellite cafeterias and the vending
service, This fiscal year saw a record
high in total food operations sales

UAS showed net profits in every
major operating unit with the excep-
tion of the Campus Center which
lost over $55,000.

This year's net profit is a continua-

said, forcing a decrease in service
hours.

Consequently, Schmidt aid that
the library opened this semester for
83.5 hours per week, as compared to
last year’s 103.5 hours, areduction of
20 hours.

However, according to Schmidt,
with the restoration of eight hours
‘on Sept. 13, and the addition of the
Sunday evening hours, the library's
total hours will be 94.5, nine hours
shy of last year's total.

Schmidt said that these last nine
hours will be

hours, and an additional hour Sun-
day

The library hus received five
resignations this semester, and
Schmidt expects two more this
month. “In spite of these
resignations [mostly clerks and

typists},” Schmidt suid, “the library
will be able to restore the hours. We
believe that we can absorb the work
that those people were doing, at east
for the remainder of the semester.”

According to Schmidt, the reason
for delay in the restoration of hours
was lack of personnel. Steps were
taken through the New York State

has been following for the past four
years. The organization used to lose
money annually, but this pattern was
reversed in 1972.

“This (trend) was due to better
management and better direction
from the manager of the corpora-

Rosenthal.

Oct 19, Schmidt requested that five
more positions be unfrozen,

“If these five positions are not ap-
proved,” Schinidt said, “we're fear:

extended hours.”

According to Paul Feldman, ast

Broken Promise

“Because Schmidt broke two
private commitments earlier this
Semester,” Feldman suid, “we feel

s one because it

that he has to hold
will be made public

“We will have the perfect right to
stay in the library until midnight on
Sundays alter Nov. 14," he said.

Feldman said that Schmidt's deci-
sion to restore the full hours after
Dee, 10 is too late, “It is too close to
finals’ week,” Feldman said, “the
semester is almost over.”

Schmidt is certain the full hours
will be restored, But he is not sure
how long they will last

“The duration, of these hours will
depend on how many positions we
are without and for how long,” he

Nyquist Addresses Public
School Educators Here

by Paul Rosenthal

tate Education Commissioner
Ewald Nyquist spoke to a group of
public school educators on the
SUNYA campus Wednesday night,

Nyquist told members of the
Capital Area School Districts
Association that students in New
York receive a “quality education.”
CASDA represents school board of-
ficials from the Albany area,

Nyquist has recently come under
attack from the Education
Department's governing body, the
Board of Regents. Ten of the fifteen
regents have called for the Com-
missioner's resignation or retire-
ment, The Regents and Nyquist have
had ongoing disagreements concer-
ning their respective authority over
the department

Refusing comment on the con
troversy, Nyquist stated, “Nothing
will be said until the Regents meeting
next week.” The Bourd of Regents
will meet in New York City.

In opening his remarks to the
educators, Nyquist said, “In the last
few weeks, I've met each issue with
‘an open mouth."He added, “Some
people say I've been living verbally
beyond my intellectual means.”

Nyquist, alwayt meeting with
favorable reaction, gave his outlook
of public education in the state for
the near future, He noted that with
districts having fiscal difficulties,

“more thought must be given to new
regional efforts of all kinds.”: He
proposed the possibility of county-
Wide school systems, saying they
would likely be more economical
than maintaining local districts.

‘Throughout the conference, Ny-
quist and his aides made clear there
would be no discussion of his
problems with the Regents. CASDA,
spokesman Gregory Benson fore
warned reporters that the Com:
missioner would have nothing new
to say.

Nyquist ended his presentation
with questions from the audience,
The local board members complied
with the speaker's wishes and asked
Beneral questions about state fun-
ding of local districts.
