~ McG Gaining
PRINCETON, N.J. AP—The Gallup Poll reports that Democrat
George McGovern is continuing to gain but still remains 23
percentage points behind President Nixon in their race for the
presidency,
McGovern's greatest gains were among manual workers, where he
narrowed Nixon's lead to only 6 points—t9 to 44 per cent, the poll
reported Wednesday. In August it was 63 te 28,
‘The over-all standings showed Nixon with 59 per cent to 36 per
cent for McGovern, one per cent for other candidates and four per
cent undecided, Gallup said,
‘The poll, taken from Oct. 13 to 18, was based on questioning 1,220
registered voters
‘August was the low point for McGovern in the Gallup poll. A
survey then showed Nixon with 64 per cent to 30 per cent for
McGovern and six per cent either undecided or for other candidates.
McGovern has gained in each Gallup poll since then. Gallup said
the movement of manual workers back toward their traditional
Democratic allegiance explained most of the Democrat's increase
McGovern hus also picked up some strength among Catholics and
under-30 voters, Gallup said, but Nixon continuen to lead in all
major population groups except blacks and Jews

Food Fast for Half Way House
by Regina Colangelo
(On Wednesday, November 15,
Albany students will have an
opportunity to do a great service
to the community from which
they are only a few blocks re-
moved. By giving up supper on
this night F.S.A. will give the
money that would normally pay
for food to a community project
— a Half Way House for pri-
soners.
It is easy to forget that a few
blocks away from the isolated
‘Albany State campus, people are
facing problems of drugs,
housing, unemployment and im-
prisonment every day, One and a
half years ago the Community
Referral Center was organized
by former SUNYA student Gor-
don Van Ness in an effort to
help his community face and
solve these problems which had
become a way of life for the
people in the Arbor Hill section
of Albany.
‘The Community Referral Cen:
ter is a completely volunteer
hased organization which helps
people of the inner city deal
with problems of welfare, educa-
tion, health, drugs, alcoholism
and ‘housing, The Center plac

In view of the existing proby
lems in prison, a new enterprise
was undertaken by the

new enterprise, the Prison Pro:

ployment for former inmates. It
has also found housing for these
men and their families, received
assistance for them through
Social Service, and established
social and civic events in the
community in which they can
get involved.
‘The latest endeavor in the Pri:
son Project is the restoration of
an old house at 67 First Street in
order to open a Half Way House
for prisoners and former pri
soners. It will be an alternative
to incarceration and a preventive
rehabilitation center. Playing the
dual role of crime prevention
and rehabilitation, the Half Way
House will offer to the potential
offender and the former inmate
a place to go for education,
vocational training, community
resources, and social and civic
involvement. A liaison between
the Whitney Young Community
Health Center, hospitals in the
area and the Half Way House
will provide the men living there
with medical and psychiatric
treatment, ‘The presence of
Half Way House in the com
munity will precipitate involve

bers and offenders and former
offenders
Perhaps the most important
function of the Half Way House
will be to offer to the inmate
and former inmate a place to
acquire knowledge of what the
community is like
With thiy knowledge he will be
better equipped tu adapt tot

which he has been removed for

community for so long and have

back to. the institution from
which they have been released
‘The Half Way House will serve
to function as the source which
these former inmates can rely
fon, In the long run, half way
houses of this nature should
succeed in lowering the crime
rate in areas in which they exist
and offer the former prisoner
a better resocialization and
adaptation program than tha
now offered in state penal insti
tutions.
‘The Half Way House on First
Street will open in November to
inmates who are eligible for
parole within the next six
months. Until now, Sam and Gor
don have recieved no govern

Saigon Blasts U.S.
by R. Gregory Nokes
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON AP—Saigon to-
day issued its strongest criticism
to date of the U.S.-Hanoi agree-
ment to end the Vietnam war, as
the Nixon administration con-
tinued to say the United States
won't be ready to sign the
cease-fire by Tuesday as the
North Vietnamese have de
manded.
Meanwhile, the Viet Cong said
it is determined to continue the
war unless the United States
either dumps South Vietnamese
President Thieu or forces him to
‘accept the agreement.
In a broadcast over the official
government station, the South
Vietnamese said “whatever our
ally’s doings,” ‘Thiew ‘will not
sanction mass suicide by the
people of South Vietnam."
The broadcast sarcastically re
ferred to the United States as an
“ally who plays the role of
negotiator” and said ‘Thiew
would not sign an agreement
which he believes would result in
@ coalition government down to
the hamlet level and which con-
tained no provision for with-
drawal of North Vietnamese
troops from the South.
Sunday, Vice President Spiro
T. Agnew and Republican Na-
tional Chairman, Sen. Robert
Dole of Kansas, both said they
didn't believe @ case-fire would
be agreed toby Tuesday.
Dole, in a televised appearance,
said he did not believe the ac-
cord would be signed before the
Nov. 7 presidential elections.
Another prominent Republi-
can, Sen. Edward W. Brooke of
Massachusetts, commenting on a
private briefing by Nixon and
top administration officials, also
said today that he did not think
the case-fire would be signed by
election day
Brooke said, however, the
United States might sign an
agreement even if Thieu refused,
and added that the briefing left
him convinced that the United
States considered Thieu's objec:
tions “political rhetorie.””

The Key Question is Why?
by Mary Dresser
Newswoman Elizabeth Drew's
key question is “Why?”
Each Monday at 7:30 p.m. she
begins her “Thirty Minutes
With...” interview program on
Channel 17 over the Public
Broadcasting Service by gently
leading her guest through a state-
ment of position. Then she
smiles and quietly asks: “Why?”
A-tecent interview with Adm
‘Thomas H. Moorer, Chairman of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff, illu
strates this technique
Mrs. Drew: (Should this coun:
try be) number one, militarily?
‘Adm. Moorer: Number one in
every area. Number one in
sports, number one in industry,
number one militarily, number
‘one across the board.
Mrs. Drew: Why?
Adm. Morrer: Because- do you
want to be number two?
Such “why?” questions are part
of the implicit bargain Elizabeth
Drew believes she has made with
her audience, The bargain is to
value truth above TV entertain
ment,
She sees her job as “getting
into the issues and laying them
out" so. that her viewers can
draw their own conclusions
“That's what democracy and
journalism is all about,” she says
simply.
Mrs, Drew prepares for int
views by asking herself “ICL (ax
a viewer) had » half hour with
this person, what would | want
to know?"
She avoids the overtly aggres
sive questions because she be
lieves. this distracts the viewers’
attention from the subject. “In
side Washington" gossip is also
taboo on “Thirty Minutes
With...” because Mrs Drew be
eves such questions take valu
le time from un interview
without shedding light on issues
of national importance
In order to build her instinets
for the right question at the
right Lime, Mrs. Drew spends as
much time as possible outside
Washington, She reudy a lot
lulks to people in other parts of
the country, and listens toh
friends’ ides
Mrs. Drew's questions are cho-
sen very thoughtfully. She be-
lieves it is essential to show her
inking process and not
litical reflexes.
“I don’t want to get verbal
press releases or non-answers to
questions they obviously can’t
answer,” she says.
If her guest is a candidate for
office, Mrs. Drew may ask how
this person would change the
country. If the guest is already
in office, her questions focus on
the things that have already been
ingle-person interview
of “Thirty Minutes
gives Mrs, Drew a
unique opportunity to follow up
a line of questioning and re
spond to rapidly-changing news
development.
She recalls developing a set of
questions on the India-Pakistan
uation prior to interviewing
Defense Secretary Melvin Laird
and quickly discarding all these
questions upon learning that
massive troop withdrawals from
Vietnam had just been an:
nounced, Mrs, Drew decided on
camera that troup withdrawals
were more important toh
audience than the Mid-Easte
situation,
She also threw uway her pre
pared questions on agribusiness
while interviewing Agriculture
Secretary Earl Butz because she
sensed that food prices had be:

Democrats split with the “old
tradition’..."Mr. Nixon will be
almost reelected by default."
Mrs. Drew concentrates on in-
terviewing during the program.
She makes her own incisive ob-
servations in the column she
writes as Washington Editor of
The Atlantic Monthly. More
than a year ago, in April, 1971,
she was noting that: “George
McGovern is being under-
estimated as a candidate. He is a
much tougher man than most
descriptions of him suggest, and
he has done a lot of quiet work
to get his candidacy moving.”
This perception is not un
noticed by her audience, Ac-
cording to a New York lawyer:
“Elizabeth Drew..has been a
main source of vital, important
information, presented in level-
headed and non-dogmatic fash-
jon,”
A priest in Saint Paul, Minne:
sola, says: “Your characteristic
genius lies in your ability to
steer a gracious course between
being bland and resorting to
needling."
‘A housewife in Maryland calls
Mrs, Drew “one of the few great
interviewers on television,” and
a doctor in New York says “If
woman's liberation means more
Drew, then let's get on with it.””
Mrs, Drew is conscious that
many women in America are
looking toward her as an exam:
ple of professional excellence.
Her mail is filled with testi-
monial letters from such diverse
women us San Francisco house:
wives and the formidable pub:
lisher of Ms., Gloria Steinem.
However, her reaction to wo
man’s liberation is characteris:
tically that of the professional
journalist. who happens to be «
woman, She seems yenuinely
surprised that “people are taking
it 40 seriously that a woman is
doing this."’ She believes the fact
(hut she is a woman is "periphe
ral" to het job, but admits that
it has become very significant to
many men and wome
“After listening to people Lam
beginning to believe that this is a
really serious issue in this coun’
try," she says, “It is important
und it hits very, very deep.
Mrs, Drew wants to continue
her “Thirty Minutes With..."

casting Service because she be:
lieves commercial television is
doing very little one-to-one in:
terviewing,
She believes that the real signi
ficunee of TV public affairs in:
terviewing in contrast ty written
interviews ts that it permits the
audience to draw its own conclu:
sions,
“You can write @ profile of a
person, but no matter how well
it is done, that sense of chemis
try doesn't come through. The
people are forced to their con
clusions through the writer's

OF her half-hour profiles, Mrs
Drew concludes, “always finish

Judge Dembitz: Qualified and Running
by Patti Maslinoff
Judge Nanette Dembitz ls the
first woman candidate for the
New York State Court of Ap-
peals which, as she explained to
j group of SUNYA atudents Inst
Friday afternoon, has presented
some special problems. ‘he
concern is that it puts women in
‘a more authoritative role in the
legal aystem." aald Judge Dem
bitz, She has been ked to
show, in her words — “a serious
interest, not just @ skirt. ” Her
rious Interest, she maintains,
should be assumed from her
record,
‘The Court of Appeals is the
highest court In New York State
ft interprets the State Constit
ution and handles cases from the
lower courts, A sprinkling of
women can be found on the
lower courts in New York State.
but none on the 35: member
intermediate court nor on the
q-member Court of Appeals, The
Women's Movement has expres
sed » desire for more women to
hold positions of authority
Rockefeller had at one time
said that the time has ended
when men alone should sit on
« Court of Appeals, Hower
when three vacancies appear
on the Court for the
th year, the Republican Party
chose three men, A faction of
the Democratic Purty decided 10
support a womun, and dud
Dembitz was asked becwus
her high qualifications
judge
Among these qualification are
an undergraduate degree from
University of Michigan and a law
degree from Columbia Law
School. She has spent over 30
yeurs ax a practicing attorney,
pecializing in appeals, which are
the kind of cases that go up to
the Court of Appeals. She has
worked with the New York Civil
Liberties Union and the Legal
Aid Society. Her writings have
appeared in such publications as
The Natwn, Columb Law re
view, Cornell Law Quarterly
Antioch Review andNew York
Times Presently she is ® Family
Court Judge
Nunette Dembite went on to
talk about the fact that while
she has all of these qualifi
ations, the New York State Bar
Association has declared he
qualified to be a judge on the
Court of Appenls while the other
six candidates (all amen} hav
heen determined qualified She
explained that she wns qiven a

jualificaion, Judge Demb t
said that the City of New Yors
Bur Assoeation, a nighly fe
pected organization , has found
her qualified.
In reply to the question ~ “has
your feminist consciousness
been raised as a result of your
campaing?”” Dembitz said that she
had
In reply to the question ~
“has your feminist consciousness
been raised as as reault of your
campaign?’ Dembitz sald that she
had to answer yes, At a meeting
with « Bar Association of &
smaller city in New York St
one man asked — “How could
you get along with six strong
minded men?” “Until I got into
the situation (of the campaign),
1 wasn't conscious of how much
of this attitude remained.” She
felt that once she had her job as
attorney and then Family Court
Judge, aex did not play a role
But now that she i seeking «
new cole, she in seen as an
intrusion in a male-dominated
activity
Judge Dembitz spoke alsv of
another obstacle in her campaing
the fact that she has not been
ng tor years to run for
Mo Appeals “Being
in politics is a disad:
Sne has not been ac
bye an co and often does
nat ye “right people” of
have the ‘nght connections
Dembite then guided her talk
to + belief that a judge

law in a social att
ative for « judge
sauch discusion on liberal ve.
Strict constructionist judges.
Judge Dembita said, ‘If liberal
constructionist means exploring
the actual impact of law on
human being and on lives, then
you would have to call me libr
eral, But it should not be con-
sidered a liberal point of view
but rather # rational point of
view.
To illustrate, Judge Dembite
cited an example of a case of &
aSyear old male whose only
disqualification to work with the
FBI tsa record of arrest when
he was 13 years old Although
he was never declared guilty, the
arrest remains on his record. The
courts have previously ruled that
it ia not necessary for the arrest
record of ajuvenile to be cleared
in the case of & decision of not
guilty This is because, in the
American system, one is 10)
nocent until proven guilty
Therefore because no guilt was
determined, a record of arrest
should have no bearing on the
individual But Judge Dembit
inte out what should be end

things The courts should
ook at what ia — at the social
impact of « ruling The FBI
will not hire this man because of
avenile record of arrest) The
courts should, according to
Nanette Dembits. recogniae that
this does happen and change its
previous ruling to one where the
recent appointments tu the Sup
reme Court, there has been
arrest records of ajuvenile are
destroyed,
Judge Dembitz illustrated her
beliefs with further examples.
Recently there was a case before
the Court of Appeals concerning
student voting In thelr campus
town, The ruling was that #:u:
dents may vote only in their
home towns. The reality of this
decision, Dembita felt, was to
impede the right of a student to
vote, The emphasis should be on
increasing the auffrage, The
Federal Court ruled in accor
dance with Judge Dembits's be-
liets.
Dembits's last example of the
neceasity for a judge to be aware
‘of the social consequences of
ruling concerned another Court
of Appeals case, The Court ruled
that Medicaid could not be used
tor abortions. Judge Dembits
said that the actual result of this
decision is that the poor can not
get abortions while the rich can
Againin this case, the Federal
Court reversed the decision
The discuasion was brought to
a close a Nanette Dembits de

A few years ago John Knowles created amicrocosmic world in the
boys’ school of Devon. Outside the struggle was World War II; inside
the struggle was that of maturing adolescence. Knowles wrote a
sensitive novel about the relationship of two young boys at the
pivotal moment in their growth into men, Larry Pierce has clomped
heavy-footed on this delicate framework and has almost destroyed
it.
Cashing in on the current wave of no’ cinema (Last Picture
Show, Summer of 42) is not a fault. A Separate Peace cries out for a
sensitive film interpretaion, it is surprising that it was not made into
a film long before, But the material must be cautiously and subtlely
developed, like the two main characters themselves, the story must
grow through its adolescent stage and not spring from child to man
in one reel
Perce continually introduces intriguing themes and then drops
them without adequate development or explanation, There is a hint
of homosexuality between the two boys, then we sce no more of it
There is no development or subtlety in the interpretation of 1 ¢
characters of the boys, one jumps from introvert into full blown

OPEN LETTER TO THE STUDENTS
OF NEW YORK STATE
In a very few days the American people will select either Richard Nixon or
myself to be President for the next four years Yet many people have grown so
suspicious of government and so cynical toward politicians that they believe
the choice doesn't make any difference.
They are wrong. It makes a difference to the people of Southeast Asia. For
them it is the difference between four more years of ruthless bombing, burning
villages and terrified children and an immediate end to these scenes of horror.
It makes a difference to our prisoners of war- the difference between four
more years of agonizing captivity and the freedom that will come only when this
war is finally over
Unfortunately, it no longer makes any difference to the 20,000 American
soldiers who have returned from this madness not in glory, but in death, since
Richard Nixon took office on a pledge of peace. For them his secret plan for
peace will remain a secret always.
I will end this war immediately. Richard Nixon has not and will not.
It makes a difference to the millions who languish in poverty in the richest
nation of the world. It makes a difference to their children who may be
condemned to another generation of empty stomachs, wretched health and broken
dreams. It 1s the difference between compassion and neglect
1 will commit whatever it takes to give every American the chance for a
full life. Richard Nixon has not and will not.
And it makes a difference to all of us who look to the Supreme Court for
justice. Richard Nixon's appointments to the Court have demonstrated his
Contempt for our nation's Constitution. ‘Two of his nominees were so poorly
qualified that the Senate refused to confirm them. Yet Justices Rehnquist,
Powell, Blackmun and Burger will be with us for the rest of my life and for
a major part of yours
I will nominate Supreme Court justices worthy of the position. Richard Nixon
has not and will not.
During the debate over the California delegation ut the Democratic Convention,
semblyman Willie Brown of California electrified the delegates with his plea:
"Give us back our delegation. ’
As this campaign comes to a close, I say to the wiretappers and the warmongers
and the powerful private interests that have seized control of our government:
"Give us back our country."
1 am asking for your help in these final days. Without it I cannot win.
With it 1 definitely can. 1 stake my hopes on November 7th in large part on
your energy, your wisdom and your conscien:
