The State University of New
York is submitting a 1991-92
operating budget request which
recognizes the state’s fiscal
difficulties and would
subsequently increase state
funding by 4.1 percent [$1.54
billion] at its state operated
campuses.

The budget request was
approved by the SUNY board
lof trustees,” in an attempt to
preserve the university’s existing
funding while recognizing the
impact of inflation and salary
increases, according to an
October 25 news release from
the Office of Government and
University Relations.

The SUNY system is seeking
ja total of $17.9 million for
undergraduate —_ education,
student services, and graduate
student support, according to the
release. Included in this figure
jare the expansion of minority
graduate fellowships and the
restoration of scheduled
increases for the Graduate
Research Initiative.

A small fraction of the funds,
according to the release, will be
distributed to part-time student
aid, core operations, the opening
lof new buildings, and other state
funded programs. However the
majority of the increase, over 75
percent, “would cover the stress
of inflation on SUNY’s existing

SUNY Trustees will ask
for more state aid

programs.”

Ken Goldfarb, director of
Media Relations for SUNY
Central said the funding will not
necessarily come in the form of
a tuition hike. Goldfarb said,
“The committee is studying the|
matter” and will not have a
report until January or February.

According to Goldfarb the!
Teport has to be submitted to
Governor Cuomo, who will then
submit his budget request to the
Legislature. April Ist is the|
earliest date the state will know
what form, if any, the funding
will come in, Goldfarb said.

According to an article in the
October 30th edition of The|
Times Union, there is strong
reason to believe the funding
will come in the shape of a
tuition hike. The argument stems
from “Cuomo’s actions in recent|
months. He [the governor] has
Said repeatedly that because of,

Growing interest apparent in

By Cindy Chin
STAFF WRITER

The growing interest in gay
and lesbian studies among
universities may prompt the
formation of an official
academic association for those
involved in the field.

This and other issues will be
discussed in the Fourth Annual
Lesbian, Bisexual and Gay
Conference at Harvard
University where about 800
Students, professors, and activists
are expected to attend, according
to the October 24 issue of the
Chronicle of Higher Education.

One réason for the trend
towards acceptance is “the
growing vocal presence of
lesbian and gay scholars,” said
Richard D. Mohr, professor at
the University of Ilinois to the
Chronicle of Higher Education,

“Tt is an overall trend, not just

of gay and lesbian issues.
There’s also a heightened
awareness of Afro-American
and feminist issues,” said Nancy,
co-chairperson of the Gay and
Lesbian Alliance (GALA),

“Gay and lesbian studies can
do for sex what feminism did for
gender - to set it off as a social
and cultural category separate
from biology,” said David
Halperin, professor at the
Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT) to the
Chronicle.

While other academic
communities show a growing
interest in new tolerance for gay
and lesbian issues, some argue
this isn’t happening at SUNYA.

“Our campus has not become
more accepting. Students are
homophobic,” Nancy said.

DEA probes bombing

Dumfries, Scotland
(AP) An American attorney on
Wednesday dismissed a news report that a
U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency courier
might unwittingly have carried the bomb
that blew up Pan Am Flight 103 over
Scotland.

Lew Kreindler, leading counsel for U.S.
relatives of the victims, said the NBC-TV
report on Tuesday was an “old story” that
surfaced a year ago in a British newspaper.
He said he had no doubt that the drug
policing agency had checked it out and
would continue to investigate.

An inquiry is taking place in Dumfries,
Scotland, into the December 1988
bombing that killed 270 people aboard the
jetliner and in the village of Lockerbie.

“Tt appears to me that someone wants to
focus attention away from Pan Am
security procedures and toward something
which relieves Pan Am of responsibility. It
seems to me an attempt to grab public
attention,” the attorney said.

He added without elaboration that the
Dumfries inquiry was providing good
answers.”

UN calls for freeze

United Nations
(AP) The Security Council’s next move
against Baghdad is a resolution that would
put Iraq’s frozen assets into an escrow
account to pay for war damages. U.S.
Ambassador Thomas R. Pickering said
Wednesday.

Pickering told reporters the resolution
would allow Iraqi funds and property
frozen for the duration of the crisis has run
its course, because there is no way of
assessing total costs until then.

On Monday, the Security Council voted
to hold Iraq liable for human rights abuses
and war damages during its occupation of
Kuwait. But that resolution did not contain
a means of distributing Iraqi funds. The
new resolution apparently would provide
such a mechanism.

Pickering said the coyncil could begin
deliberating the measure at the end of this
week or early next week.

Police officer killed

Syracuse
(AP) Backup units were unable to respond
quickly enough to save an undercover
police officer killed by drug dealers in a
soured sting operation, police said
‘Wednesday.

Three men were charged with Officer
Wallie Howard Jr.’s death Wednesday,
including a 16-year-old. They were
ordered held without bail by City Court
Judge James Tormey, who entered
mandatory innocent pleas on their behalf.

Police in Brooklyn were searching for a
fourth suspect. Police accused the trio of
killing Howard, 31, during. an attempted
robbery. The undercover investigator set
up the dealers to sell him four pounds of
cocaine for $35,000, said Police Chief
Leigh Hunt.

Howard showed them at least several
thousand dollars moments before the
shooting. Hunt said, it was unclear

whether the suspects had discovered the
truth about Howard’s identity, he said.

Howard’s conversation with the
suspects was recorded by a concealed
microphone taped to his body, but the
shooting occurred too fast for back
Officers to help, said Hunt.

River contaminated

remnants of an estimated 164,000
gallons of kerosene spilled into the water

The kerosene spilled into the river last

tuptured on Diamond Reef off southern
Dutchess County.

About 30,000 gallons of kerosene have
been recovered. Carl Weed of the state
Department of Conservation said wind,

Racist letter circulated at Oswego

By Leanne Warshauer
NEWS EDITOR

An anonymous, anti-Semitic,
racist letter that appeared on the
SUNY Oswego campus in early
October has both students and
administration taking action to
prevent further outlashes.

The three part letter, addressed
“To All” students and then
singling out “the colored” and
“the Jew” viciously attacked the
latter two, using slang and
profanity.

In the first paragraph, the
letter states, “What have niggers
contributed to the world to
worthy of possessing a say in its
affairs?”

In its address “to the Jew” the
letter refers to the Holocaust as
“the fabulous forties.”

“We’ve had a number of
incidents on campus,” said Julie
Blissert, SUNY Oswego Public
Relations representative. Blissert
said the letter was the second
major incident of the semester.

The first incident occurred
when racist graffiti was found on
the walls between residence
halls. The letter, written in

October, referred to this incident,
calling the graffiti “insignificant
racial sayings” and complaining
“a lot of fuss was made.”

“The letter also made
reference to the vigil held on
campus by students and faculty,
to protest the graffiti. The letter
stated although no student
approval was shown for the
graffiti at the vigil some do
approve.”

According to Blissert, the
letter was probably written as a
result of the campus wide
attention the graffiti received.

The University is taking
measures to deter future
problems.

SUNY Oswego President
Stephen Weber sent out 5,000
copies of an open letter to
students, offering a reward for
information leading to the arrest
and prosecution of those
responsible for either of the
incidents.

Since that time, Blissert said,
University Police and
Administration have received an
abundance of calls. “(Now)
anything that happens tends to
get reported,” she said.

New business fraternity offers "educational experience"

By Jillian Risberg
STAFF WRITER

Pi Sigma Epsilon is the new coed national
business fraternity focusing on mark: ing at
SUNYA.

John Friedland, a marketing and finance
major, organized the project last spring an¢
took care of last minute details over the
summer. By the beginning of the semester he
and twenty-nine other members began their
charter.

Nationally, Pi Sigma Epsilon was started in
1952, said Tim Ladin, member of Pi Sigma
Epsilon. There are sixty-seven chapters
nationwide and they are sponsored by Sales
and Marketing Executives International
(SMEI), locally Sales and Marketing
Executives of Easter New York.

“We are closely tied to Albany area
businessmen, who help us out a lot,”

Friedland said.

A professor attends every meeting,
according to Ladin, as well as a faculty
advisor, who is a former dean of the business
school at SUNYA.

“We are involved in sales and service
projects, as well as other activities,”

“We are primarily a business fraternity,
although we do have some social functions,”
Ladin said.

said. “They are very effective in finding jobs
for members and getting summer
internships,” he said.

join Pi Sigma Epsilon, Friedland said. “In
fact, our national president is a corporate

Rush for Pi Sigma Epsilon begins on
November 7th. “We will be selective in
giving out bids; we want motivated,
hardworking individuals who have a
minimum grade point average of 2.75,”
Friedland said. “We’ll do our best to include,
not exclude people,” he added.

“We are involved in sales and service
projects, as well as other activities,” Ladin
said. “Any field... has some base in
marketing, “he said.

Friedland also said Pi Sigma Epsilon does
not consider themselves a substitute for a
social fraternity or sorority. “We are just
looking to offer an educational experience,
with a business orientation.”

Jeff La Marche UPS

No arrests have been made in
connection with either incident.

SUNY Oswego Student
Association (SA) is also working
to rectify the “emotional”
Situation.

SA President Paul Austin said
SA developed an “Ad-hoc
Committee” or a “multi-cultural
committee” whose goal is to
“celebrate different diversities.

“We're trying to get
cooperation from all different
students,” Austin said.

Austin said SA is approaching
the faculty, asking them to
devote class time to the issues of
tacism and anti-Semitism, as
well as encouraging students to
accept all types of diversity.

Since the letter’s appearance,
there were several harassing
telephone calls and letters sent to
students, said SA Vice President
Ed Cohen. However, Cohen said
there has not been anything in
over a week.

“The students of color and
Jewish students are becoming
increasingly upset,” Austin said.

Cohen added, “Both groups
are very angry...emotionally.”

Harvard student cracks down on copyright violators

(CPS)Calvin and Hobbes, Bart
Simpson and Ronald McDonald have
found a college student who will fight for
their rights,

Andrew Starr, taking a year off from his
Statistics studies at Harvard University,
recently turned in Harvard Dining
Services for adopting names for its
breakfast entrees- the MacEgg and Bagel
Mac- that mirrored those of some of the
McDonalds Corporations’ concotions.
McDonalds called Harvard in late
September, and asked it to change the
names,

Harvard dining services Director Frank
Weissbecker said he changed the names
voluntarily after being approached by a
McDonalds rep at a conference.

“Tt was not a pressure decision at all,” he
said. “We’re pretty small people for
McDonalds.”

It’s not the first time Starr has
volunteered to police copyright around
classmates.

In May, he told 20th century Fox, which
owns the copyrights to The Simpsons
cartoon characters , that students at
Dunster House, a Harvard dorm, had
printed T-shirts featuring Bart Simpson
drawing on a blackboard.

“It’s against the law,” Starr said. “I feel
it’s like plagiarism. They’re using
someone else’s work,

Fox wrote to Dunster House and told
them not to sell the shirts, resulting in a
$900 loss for the dormitory.

“Tf someone were robbing a bank I’d
turn them in too,” he added.

Starr has witnessed other copyright
crimes, too.

In the past, he also has informed
Universal Press Syndicate, owner of the

trademark for Calvin and Hobbes,
Paramont Pictures, producers of star Trek,
and the Boston Symphony Orchestra
about illegal T-shirts around Harvard.

“Most of the places seem to want to
protect their copyright,” Starr said,

Besides the warm feeling of good
citizenship, Starr has gotten some
material benefits from his efforts.
MacDonalds sent him a book of gift
certificates, and Paramount Pictures sent
him some Star Trek memorabilia in
thanks,

Although nooneat Dunster House could
be reached for comment, David Strait, co-
chair of the Dunster House Committee,
told the Harvard Crimson that “at the
time, it was a big deal.”

“We got very serious calls telling us to
stop selling the shirts.”

In reply, Starr believes , “The company

reserves the right to protect their
copyright even if they don’t need the
money,” Starr maintained.

To sustain his resolve, Starr carrries a
clip from the International Herald Tribune
in which Simpsons creator Matt Groening
expresses “mixed feelings” about the
popularity of bootleg Bart Simpson T-
shirts.

“You have to have mixed feelings when
you're getting ripped off,” Groening said
in the article. “I don’t like these
smokestack factories belching out bootleg
Simpsons T-shirts. It’s a huge business.”

Starr says he may transfer to the
University of Utah next year. While he
wants to focus on his coursework, he says
he might follow up any copyright
infractions he happens to see in Salt Lake
City.

Anti-war marches draw thousands nationwide

(CPS)A substantial number of
college students ended two
months of seeming silence about
the military buildup in the
Middle East by joining- and
helping to organize- Oct. 20

The rallies were in part

messages to campus peace
groups around the nation to
coach them to generate big
turnouts.

Alexandra De Montrichard, a

According to Vice President of

theoretical and practical aspects
of leadership such as: leadership
style, the ability to motivate
other students, designing
programs for an organization and
managing an organization’s
budget.

Livingston noted that since his

coming to his present office three
years ago, he realized there was
an”inadequacy” at the school in
it’s training of students to be
effective leaders. He also said
leadership courses are common
in other state and private
universities.

When asked if the course was
in response to student apathy,
Livingston remarked,”It’s not so
much student apathy, but seeing
the consequences of poorly
trained student leaders.”
Consequences of poorly trained
leaders Livingston cited include
tensions within the student
organizations as well as the

student organizations dropping
from the university.

Livingston referred to himself
as the “Professor of Record”. He
is in charge of approving the
course’s design as well as
overseeing its performance. he
said two experimental sections,
with a maximum of twenty
students per sction, will be
offered in the spring.

According to Harlon York,
Judicial Board Chair for the
LEC., “More than occasionally
you find students in offices that
they do not have enough training
for. The course could be a good
idea.”

Low turnout expected for election

By Kyle Hughes
Albany

If Gov. Mario Cuomo wins as many votes this year
as he did in his landslide 1986 victory, all that
means is 21 percent of New York’s voting-age
population bothered to cast ballots for him.

Election-day apathy is nothing new in New York
State, which has 8.1 million registered voters —
only about half of whom bothered to vote in 1986
— and another 5.2 million adult residents who
don’t even sign up for the privilege of voting.

But Tuesday’s election could set a new record for
an embarassingly low turnout, surpassing even
1986 — the worst year in the state’s modern
history in terms of citizen participation in statewide
elections.

“Most people believe this could be one of our
lowest turnouts,” says David Flanagan, spokesman
for the state Board of Elections.

Hoping to minimize the impact of voter apathy,
Republicans and Democrats have unveiled get-out-
the-vote campaigns for Tuesday, since both could

be damaged by a small turnout.

Democrats are spending about $500,000 on the
effort, aimed at running up Gov. Mario Cuomo’s
margin of victory Tuesday to match his 1986
record. Still, that big victory was produced by
votes from only about one-fifth of the voting-age
population of New York.

Even with the expensive campaign, Democrats
are not optimistic about turnout. “It will probably
be in the same neighborhood (as 1986’s),” says
William Cunningham, a Cuomo campaign aide.

Republicans, worried that their gubernatorial
candidate Pierre Rinfret will finish third behind
Conservative nominee Herbert London, have a
more modest effort underway.

In Westchester County, GOP Chairman Anthony
Colavita can be heard on the radio urging
Republicans to come out on Election Day. The ad
campaign will cost about $9,000, Colavita says.

Similar ad campaigns are under way across the
state. One typical effort is airing in the Albany area

Chuck Taylor's haven't lost a step since 1950's

By Dan Elman Roche

No basketball superstar
advertises them while doing
death-defying, 360-degree slam
dunks. They don’t cost anywhere
near $100. They don’t have a
pump, air pockets in the soles, or
three-color
schemes. Teen- Col umn
agers don’t fight each other to
get them,

And yet, there is probably no
athletic shoe more famous, more
influential and more reliable than
Converse All-Stars, also known
as Chuck Taylors.

You’ve seen them. They usually
are hightops (though lows are

available); usually white or black
canvas; rubber soles with thin
red and blue stripes around the
sides (on the whites); metal
eyelets; and, on the inside ankle
of each shoe, a round white
patch with a solid blue star in the
center, “CONVERSE ALL
STAR” in red around the
circumference, and, in neat blue
script, the “Chuck Taylor”
signature.

And when you see them, you
might say to the wearer — as my
dad once did when I had on my
pair — “Why are you wearing
1950s basketball shoes?”

That is a logical question, here

Dedicated to Excellence in Clinical Research

in 1990, when, in every shopping
mall, there are three or four
stores devoted exclusively to
models of high-tech, in-fashion
athletic footwear, all of which
might get you closer to that 360-
degree slam dunk.

And it is also a logical question
when you consider all the things
about Chuck Taylors that make
them pale by comparison to
anything invented since...well,
let’s say the year Michael Jordan
was born.

The canvas is thin and provides
no support in side-to-side
movement. The padding at the
back of the heel feels like a piece
of cardboard sewn between two
pieces of canvas. The sole is
simply a slab of rubber and
provides about as much
cushioning as a sandal.

And the only ventilation comes
from two metal eyelets near the
instep of each shoe. Of course,
one of those eyelets usually falls
out within a week, leaving a tiny
frayed hole — like something
you’d pay extra for in fashion

jeans.

But the truth is, I was wearing
them last week because I wasn’t
on a basketball court. I was in
my father’s carpeted living room.
Today, no one plays basketball in
Chuck Taylors, except, maybe,
the same people who still use
three-fingered baseball gloves or
play football in leather helmets.

Why, then, are Chuck Taylors
still around? Why does Chuck
Taylor — an unknown semipro
player in the Boston area, who,
in 1917, had to support himself
by taking a second job as a
salesman for Converse — live on
in shoe stores everywhere? Why
do I always have a pair of his
sneakers in my closet?

Simply put, there are few casual
shoes more comfortable or less
complicated. When you buy
Chuck Taylors, you know what
you’re getting — a bolt of
canvas and a hunk of rubber, the
same thing Wilt Chamberlain
and Bob Causy, Jerry West and
Oscar Robertson got. You get the
same diamond-shaped tread that

hugged the floors of Boston and
Madison Square gardens.

Today, that tread nicely will
hug a street’s asphalt, a lawn’s
grass, or a mall’s granite or tile
floor. It is best, however, to do
that hugging during the warm
months, because walking
through snow in Chuck Taylors
is like walking through snow
with washrags tied to your feet.
The canvas soaks up the
moisture, and the sole, if it’s
worn at all, inevitiably leaks.

But in warm weather, they are
wonderful. The canvas breaths,
so your feet stay cool. The shoes
are light, not clunky. They lace
up tightly and don’t slip around.
And. when you’re bored, you
can draw with a pen all over the
rubber toe.

In the past five years or so,
Converse has tried to perk up the
shoes’ appearance. For a while,
in addition to white and black,
you could get them in red, pink,
navy and sky blue, khaki and
probably a rainbow of other
colors I never saw. Sometimes it
seemed as if Chuck Taylors were
actually in fashion at least
among the “natural” crowd. The
shoes went well with their faded
jeans, tie-dye T-shirts and
bandannas.

For all I know, Chuck Taylors
may still be in fashion, though
last summer a friend of mine
tried to buy a pink pair, and the
salesperson told her they were
difficult to get. I recently called
the Converse headquarters in
North Reading, Mass., to find
out if there is any such shortage,
and a spokesperson told me that
the pinks have been
discontinued. The company now
makes Chuck Taylors only in
white, black, red and navy.

In any case, I was in a sports
store the other day, and there on
the bottom shelf below all of the
Nikes and Reeboks and Tigers
and the high-tech varieties of
Converse were the inevitable two
pairs of All-Stars one hightop,
one lowtop of other stores.

I looked at the hightops for a
few minutes, occasionally
glancing down at the dirty, one
year-old pair on my feet. I almost
bought the new ones. Then I
thought: Nah, I know Chuck
Taylors. Mine will last.

Legislators being investigated

By Keith Goldschmidt
Tallahassee

As some legislators are being
investigated for trips with
lobbyists and a task force
wrestles with drafting new ethics
laws, one question pleads for an
answer.

Why?

These lawmakers earn a salary,
and they are reimbursed for
meals and other expenses. So
why would a legislator take a
trip, a gift or even a lunch from a
lobbyist?

“Sometimes we ask ourselves
that,” said Rep. Keith Amold, D-
Fort Myers. “It’s pretty much
unavoidable, I suppose.”

That’s simply the nature of
politics in Tallahassee, he and
others say.

Allegations this summer that
some legislators took trips to
France, Mexico and other places
without disclosing they were
paid for by lobbyists resulted in
the task force to draft new ethics
laws.

The state attomey’s office in
Tallahassee also is investigating
those charges.

Lobbyists, company
representatives or groups from
local districts often come to the

capital and want to meet their
legislator.

Sen. W.D. Childers, D-
Pensacola, sees nothing wrong
with accepting free food,
especially when it’s a planned
reception.

“Meals are insignificant unless
there are a lot of them,” he said.

Rep. Harry Goode, D-
Melbourne, says it’s often a way
to meet with district voters who
want to discuss concerns. The
discussion often includes a meal.

Rep. Mary Ellen Hawkins, R-
Naples, raises the question:
“Who would sell their soul for a
few lunches?”

That’s a question only state
lawmakers can answer. But one
thing is certain — legislators’
salaries and other perks don’t
make them beggars at the
lobbyist table.

Legislators receive:

— An annual salary of $22,560.
The speaker of the House and the
Senate president each receive
$31,332. Nearly all members

have other jobs.

— Two paid staff members for
representatives; three for
senators.

— Fringe benefits including
health, dental and life insurance

DON'T SAY - "I CAN'T DO IT"

JOIN THE HUNDREDS OF SUCCESSFUL BEGINNERS
WHO ARE PROSPERING IN THEIR OWN PROFITABLE

and a retirement plan in which
members are fully vested in eight
years,

— An allowance of $50 per
day during the 60-day legislative
session, which is to be used for
lodging and meals.

— One airline ticket home
each week while the Legislature
is in session.

— For senators, up to $6,000
to use for other travel and
newsletter expenses.

— For House members, up to
$8,000 for postage.

— An office-expense fund of
$18,000 a year to cover expenses
for offices in their home districts
and to pay for office supplies.

Until the Internal Revenue
Service ruled that state
lawmakers need to account for
actual office expenses, the
legislators simply received a
monthly check. That changed
July 1. Now, anything not spent
directly for office expenses will
be considered salary.

Some legislators already
supplement their salaries — or
those of their staffs — with the
office expense fund.

Many legislators receive

New York State legalizes heath care proxy

By Cliff Smith
Rochester
A state law effective Jan. 18
will permit adults to appoint
someone in or outside the family
to make health care decisions for
them whenthey no longer are
able to do it themselves.

Lawyers knowledgeable about
the Health Care Proxy Law say
they believe everyone over 17
should make it part of their over-
all planning. But local lawyer
Ronald B. Klineman believes it’s
especially important for younger
people.

“They’re the ones most likely
to need a proxy, because they're
the ones most likely to get into a
motor vehicle, sports or other
type of accident,” he said.

The new law addresses a
variety of health treatments and
differs from a living will, which

allows a competent adult to
decide whether life-sustaining
treatment should be continued
after he or she becomes
unconscious while in a terminal
condition. “It’s a just a
‘let me die’ thing,” said lawyer
Elaine T. Karron of a livingwill.

A living will, typically
triggered only when individuals
become terminally ill, wouldn’t
apply, for example, to someone
with Alzheimer’s disease who
may not be terminally ill.

A living will, said Klineman,
doesn’t include a third party; it’s
between you and the doctor or
medical facility.

“But if you’re alone in the
world and don’t know who to
choose, then a living will would
take care of the matter,”
Klineman said.

A health care proxy also
shouldn’t be confused with a
power of attorney, which is

written authorization for
someone to manage your
financial affairs or for something
more specific, such as doing
your banking when you're out of
the country. A power of attomey
is not for health matters, lawyers
said.

Proxy decisions could involve
cardiopulmonary resuscitation,
mechanical breathing, artificial
nutrition and hydration, major or
minor surgery, kidney dialysis,
chemotherapy, simple diagnostic
tests or ones that invade the
body, blood transfusions, use of
antibiotics, pain medication, an
organ donation or an autopsy.

Making the health care proxy
choice, however, could be
difficult, Karron warned: “You
must choose someone with
whom you’ ll trust your life.”

Klineman said “the major
danger” is choosing someone
with “a conflict of financial

interest, such as a greedy kid.”

Added Karron: “I’m not
saying you should never
designate an heir. However, an
heir could profit from not having
you live longer.”

If you decide to go outside
your family, Karron said, you
“may find someone in your
church or another group who is
younger and whom you can open
up to and talk about these things.
That’s particularly important
with AIDS patients, who may
not want mom or dad because
they think their lover knows
them better.”

She also advises picking an
alternate proxy to act as
substitute if the principal proxy
can’t be contacted.

The proxy should be given the
most specific instructions
possible, Karron said.

“The more specific you are
about medical intervention, the

more valid that becomes,” she
said. “This is particularly
necessary when it comes to
withholding artificial nutrition
and hydration.”

Klineman and Karron agreed
that a health care proxy could be
designated without a lawyer’s
help, but they advise against it.
Karron also said a doctor should
be brought into the preparation
to advise about likely future
health problems.

A lawyer might charge about
$75 to make out a short form
and “maybe twice that” for a
longer form, depending upon its
complications, Klineman said.

Rochester Times-Union.)

Drunkeness is a

state of mind

(CPS)- University of
Washington researchers say they
have managed to get about 200
UW students, told they were
drinking alcoholic beverages
that were really nonalcoholic, to
act drunk, make gross sexual
advances toward each other and
confess to feeling “buzzy” and
“a little blasted.”

“It’s like ‘Pavlov's dog,” said
G. Alan Marlett of UW’s
Addictive Behaviors Research
Center. “Just knowing you are
going to have a drink, seeing it
poured, touching it to your lips
and feeling it go down can make
the expectations come true, and
set off a chemical reaction in the
body.”

Group asks IRS
to get involved
with PSATs

(CPS)-

Using PSAT (Preliminary
Scholastic Aptitude Test) scores
to award National Merit
Scholarship amounts to race and
sex discrimination, and the
group that awards the
scholarships should lose its tax-
exempt status, the standardized
test watchdog group FairTest
said in a letter to the Internal
Revenue Service.

“Just as the tax-exempt status
of Bob Jones University was
revoked because of its racially
discriminatory programs, so the
National Merit Scholarship
Corporation should be denied
taxpayer support because of its
use of tests which result in
racially and sexually
discriminatory awards,” wrote
director Cinthia Schuman of
FairTest, which forced New
York State to drop SAT scores as
measures of who should get state
scholarships.

FairTest says the tests are
biased against women and
minorities, and don’t really
predict how well they actually
do in college.

to make your voice heard.

The first step in this procedure begins
on Election Day.

Every year the voter election turnout
gets critics to say how apathetic
Americans are. A low turnout is also
being predicted this year with the race
for governor shaping into a landslide.

But what we should remember is that
there are many other elections and
issues on the ballot with equal
importance.

The Environmental Bond Act is a
major issue. With the constant
deterioration of our environment and
opinions on all sides of the spectrum, it
is important to understand the
significance of the acts passing or
failing.

Currently, the race for comptroller is
up for grabs. The latest polls show that
this race can go either way.

This weekend, take time out and find
out about the issues. Pick up the
newspaper, talk to people, and find out
what's going on.

Many students, unfortunately, are
unaware of these issues. This is often a
deterrent not to participate in the
election process.

The vote is one of the only true forms
of democracy still left in this country.
But our responsibility needs to go
beyond that.

More importantly, people need to
have more interaction with their
representatives.

We are located in the capital of the
state. That gives us an opportunity to
make personal contact with our elected
officials.

The people we elect are working for
us. After elections, don't be afraid to air
out your gripes.

Bond Act will help environment

We live in a time of increasing fragility for the air we
breathe, the water we drink, and the forests which sustain
life and improve the quality of our everyday existence.

To preserve and protect these miraculous gifts of
nature for our use and that of our children, I proposed
and the Legislature passed the Twenty-First Century
Environmental Quality Bond Act. This legislation will
appear on the November ballot as Proposal One and I
encourage all New Yorkers to learn how it effects their
lives directly and to make an informed vote.

Mario Cuomo

By passing environmental Bond Acts m 1975 and 1980
through referendum vote, New Yorkers took on the
responsibility of providing their children with a healthy
environment. Residents of the Capital District have long
been at the forefront of efforts to address environmental
concerns, and communities throughout Albany,
Schenectady, Renesselaer, Fulton, Montgomery, Warren,
Washington, Schoharie, and Saratoga counties utilized
the funds allocated to the region under both previous
environmental bond acts to initiate vital programs.

If approved, the 1990 Bond Act will enable the
region’s communities to continue essential environmental
programs. The region’s model recycling efforts could be
greatly enhanced by their share of the $300 million
proposed for additional recycling grants. The grants will
help localities purchase equipment for the collection of
recyclable materials- newspapers, glass, metals, plastics
and yard wastes- that the region’s residents have been
diverting from overburdened landfills and will help
develop markets for the millions of tons of recycled
products.

Municipalities in the Capitol District are also eligible
for State grants under a $175 million Bond Act program
to assist in the proper closure of 115 current and former
municipal landfills. Without these provisions, the cost of
landfill closure will be borne solely by local taxpayers.
The Bond Act can help solve the current crisis in local
solid waste management and enable communities to put a
lid on rising garbage disposal costs. Regional landfills
that contain hazardous waste will not qualify for grants
under this Bon Act, but may still be eligible for funding
through the 1986 Bond Act.

Capitol District residents have demonstrated a keen
appreciation fro the value of maintaining pure, clean
waters for drinking, industry, wildlife habitats, recreation
and tourism. The Bond Act provides $162 million for
low-interest financing to help local governments
complete critically needed improvements to inadequate
sewage treatment systems. Sixty-seven sewage treatment
projects serving the region, valued at more than $175
million, will be eligible for Bond Act Financing that
could save them more than $43 million in interest costs.
Land preservation projects in the region funded

through the 1972 and 1986 bond acts included
Waterford’s Peebles Island State park, Albany’s Pine
Bush Preserve, additions to the Adirondack Forest
Preserve and the Mohawk River Trailway, Petersburg
Pass, Taconic Ridge, and Glens Falls’ Moreau Lake State
Park. These bond acts also helped to preserve
ecologically important wetlands at Champlain Narrows,
Carter's Pond, Franklinton Vlaie, and Black Creek
Marsh.

The earlier bond acts were also used for the
improvement of recreational and historic sites throughout
the region. These included historic preservation projects
at Albany’s Ten Broeck Mansion, Troy’s Old YMCA and
Atheneum, Saratoga Springs’ Yaddo, Malta’s Ruhle Road
Bridge, and Schenectady’s Nott Memorial Building.
Additionally, municipal and urban cultural park projects
throughout the region received bond act grant assistance.

Funding for these popular programs is now exhausted.
Continued funding depends upon the $800 million in
land preservation and $275 million in municipal park,
recreation and historic preservation grants contained in
the 21st Century Environmental Quality Bond Act.

Adoption of this Bond Act will help insure that the
environmental and cultural treasures that we now enjoy
will be available for the enjoyment of future generations.
Through the Bond Act, we can prepare this great State
for the challenges of life in a new century, while we help
local governments keep local taxes down and maintain
the integrity of our most precious non-renewable
resource: our environment.

Lotsa Yyeks from [hyek

“Eh...what’s up, Doc?” The

witty, wonderful and surprisingly
eloquent autobiography of Chuck
Jones is what’s up. Now you might
ask, who in the hell is Chuck Jones
and why should I be interested in his
story? Though his name conjures
images of “greengrocers” and
“scoutmasters,” the characters he
took a seminal role in creating do not
— Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Pepe Le
Pew, Road Runner, Coyote and a
whole slew of others. Chuck Amuck:
The Life and Times of an Animated
Cartoonist offers an insightful peek
into the life of a man, who, far more
than most, shaped our fledgling sense
of humor.

David Cunningham

After all, didn’t we help
make the old Bugs Bunny Cartoon Half
Hour the longest running and
highest-rated network animated
series in television history (according
to Mr. A.C. Nielson and company)?
Jones, a three time Academy Award
winner for animation, has written a
memoir that is as verbally dextrous as
his images are humorous. Quick-
paced and everything but
pretentious, it reveals the origins and
subsequent development of
everyone's favorite cadre of zany
characters.

Jones remains demurely self-
depreciating throughout, and in
doing so, pays loving tribute to the
collaborative staff at Warner Brother’s
“cartoon factory” — Termite Terrace.
Jones was not the only father of the
Looney Toons menagerie. He gives
ample credit to his “heroes”, fellow
directors Tex Avery, Fritz Freleng,
and Bob McKimson.

As Jones says, “this book is not
exact... it is, hope, a fond catch-all, a

Well it’s an old idea, yeah, but it’s
also pretty well true. You can feel like
shit, and have a most perfect time
doing it, too. Hell, the whole punk
movement basically thrived on this
tush. I mean, what could feel better
than venting all your frustrations
through battered guitars and rib cages
in steamy slam pits? Maybe a few
things, but you get the picture.

Raymond Rogers

Bob Mould, once the angry young

man who fronted seminal post--

remembrance of events and people
who, consciously or not, shaped my
life and character.” And through
Jones, shaped ours as well. We all
yearned to be Bugs as kids; a
quintessential American rabbit-wise
cracking, self-assured and self-
sufficient. Of course, we usually
ended up as Daffy — vain, selfish
and bright enough to understand our
plight, but unable to control it. Jones
explains: “Bugs stands back from a
situation, analyzes it, and makes his
move; Daffy becomes emotionally
involved, loses his distance, and
blows it.” We all sympathize with
that poor, misunderstood duck, while
envying that wascally wabbit,
aspiring to his glib perfection.

Of course, that isn’t the only reason
why the Warner Brothers’ cartoons
remain timeless. As Jones points out,
they almost never incorporated
contemporary humor and “didn’t
make pictures with children in mind.
We didn’t know who would be in the
theatre audience — children or
adults. These days, I judge and
animate features by asking myself
first if it will appeal to adults.”

Chuck Amuck is a veritable treasure
trove of lovingly crafted anecdotal
gems. For instance, Jones’ recollection
of the studio-wide dread after
brashly wedding the voice of their

punkers Husker Du, knows the
feeling well. He’s still plenty angry,
albeit a bit older. And guess what,
he’s also just as good. Black Sheets of
Rain, his follow up to last year’s
mellow, introspective solo debut,
storms through some serious
torrential guitar downpour, and
underneath all the passionate
screaming about life’s crappy how’s
and why’s, there’s melodies. Strong
melodies. And by singing about the
wreckage, I guess, there is a certain
therapeutic value — you know,
getting things off your mind.
Watching Mould in concert, it’s

inept and tyrannical producer, Leon
Schlesinger, to the body of a certain
duck: “Only when we were well into
the production of the new film and
incapable of retreat, did we realize
the hideous, the lethal potential of the
future: Leon Schlesinger was going to
have to see this film, and more
important to our future — to hear his
very own voice emanating from that
duck.” During the screenings,
Schlesinger would recline in a “gilt
throne he had snatched from some
early Warner pseudo- DeMille film or
another.” When the cartoon ended, he
leaped from his chair and cried,
“Jeethus Cristh, that’s a funny voithe!
Where'd you get that voithe?” Poor
Schlesinger never knew the voice was
a caricature of his own.

Jones also recalls Friz Freleng’s
contention, “that the Warner Brothers
implicitly believed we make Mickey
Mouse, until 1963 — when, shocked
to discover that we did not, they shut
the studio.” Well, maybe not, but it
makes for a damn good story that is
consistent with the spirit of the
cartoons. Jones generously dishes out
what we weuld like to know — not
dates or cobwebbed facts .

Oddly, Jones’ long artistic career:
was due in part to his father’s lack of

hard to believe he’s really all that
down in the dumps. He seems to get
the same kind of adrenalin rush that
his fans do. And with Anton Fier
behind the drum kit, and only a bass
player by his side, Mould really kicks
out the jams, and pumps up the
volume.

You really don’t need a list of all the
songs with 2 cent rock critic
superlatives, all you need to do is
catch Mr. Mould next time around,
and pick up his record while you're

waiting. Life’s not so bad after all.

business acumen. There was always
an inexhaustible supply of “lovely
white bond paper and the finest
Ticonderoga pencils,” he writes, “all
stamped with Father’s defunct
companies’ letterheads.” Suffice to
say, Jones’ father wanted to rid
himself of such disquieting reminders
of failure as soon as possible.

According to Jones, “Animation
should be done with a lot of love and
hard work. But when you’re done
and the audience sees it, only the love
should show.” For the man who also
gave us such classics as How the
Grinch Stole Christmas, Hortan Hears a
Who, Rikki-Tikki-Tavi and The Cricket in
Times Square, it seems all the love and
hard work paid off exponentially.
Chuck Amuck is published by Avon
Books at $12.95 and is packed full of
sketches, color pictures, drawings
and photos. When you’re feeling
snowed in this winter and school has
your back up against a wall, reach for
a copy of Chuck Amuck. It’s a pleasing
way to pass some time and prompts a
flood of childhood memories at the
turn of a page.

A Day in the Life

The year was 1988, I was eighteen years old, and a senior in High School. As}
I look back on it now, I can honestly say that it was both the best and worst
year of my life. The year had started off great and I had everything I could)
have wanted, good grades, a loving girlfriend, and a lot of great times. I was|
riding on top of the world when all of a sudden, completely out of no where,
that world came crashing down.

Steven Calick

I didn’t know how or why it happened but everything around me just
started to fall apart. The things that had brought me the most joy just a few
months earlier, all seemed to be gone, and all that was left was me, with the
pieces of my life scattered on the floor. It was all so confusing. There was no}
place that I wanted to be nor anything I wanted to do and the only thing I
looked forward to was going to sleep at night. You see then I would realize|
that the day was finally over and maybe, just maybe, things might be better
tomorrow, but every night I would go to sleep, and every morning I would
awake, feeling more pain than the day before.

Thad never felt this way before, well at least not for this long. Something was|
tearing my life apart. It got so bad that I would sit in my room and cry and
not even know why I was crying. I needed help but no one could hear me. I
needed someone, but there was no one around. I needed to escape, but there|
was no where to go, nothing to do. I was probably going to have to live the
rest of my life like this and the thought of that scared the hell out of me. It was
that fear that finally gave me the answer I was looking for. There was a way]
to escape from the pain.

The details of what happened next is mostly a blur since it all happened so}
fast, but I will try to explain it the best I can remember.

It was a Sunday afternoon and I was all alone in the house. I had gotten
hungry so I went to the place where I worked and picked up a pizza. When II

Thad planned to do what I was thinking at the time, but as I sat there, with|
thoughts of finally being at peace with myself in my head, I realized that there
was no better time than the present, so I took a slice of pizza, put James|
Taylor’s Greatest Hits in the tape deck, reclined my seat all the way back, and
closed the garage door. I closed the door with the engine still on. As I sat there]
with the garage filling up with fumes, I tried to think of one reason why ||
should stop what I was doing, one reason to go on living. I sat there, thinking,
for what seemed to be a life time, and then, at what seemed to be the very last
second, I reached out, grabbed the garage door opener, and opened the door.
As the fumes cleared out I thought of the reason why I stopped. You see there
was someone I was forgetting. I was not only killing the person that I was, I
was also killing the person who I had yet to become and I realized that to
deny him his life was just unfair. Anyhow, I went into my house, put on the}
television. and finished my pizza, and while thinking over what could of

almost forgot what it felt like.

Except for a few special people, I really never told anyone that story. In kind
of a way I’m glad itall happened. On that Sunday afternoon I grew more as a|
person then I had my eighteen years before. Suicide is not an answer, it’s an|
excuse, and you can beat the pain, if you’re just willing to fight. Just}
something to think about. Until next time be good and enjoy.

my nerdy years.

We all have them, you know, whether you deny it

playground nerd, a book nerd, a not-going-out-on-
Friday nerd, but it did happen. So stop lying about it.

In my town, the Junior high slang for nerd was “dexter.”

dexter. Oh, the trauma of it all.

| remember the Friday Night Skating Experience,
which was the bane of my junior high existence.
“Going skating,” as the with-it kids called it, basically
consisted of all the twelve-year-olds going to the roller
rink and smoking, drinking, and getting felt up by the

there was no socialization for me (which, with the gift of

heavy peer pressure). So the stigma stuck. Bleah. And
it was no comfort for me to know that at our high
school reunion, I'd be able to buy and sell my old
tormentors a hundred times over. That was a hundred
years away.

Things changed in high school. Suddenly, it was

Henry: Portrait of a Wartime Hero

Henry Rollins is a name known

throughout the world, whether it’s for
his poetry, his spoken word
performances or his music. The music,
of course, is the medium he is best
known for. In the forms of Black Flag,
the Rollins Band, and most recently,
Wartime, Henry has been spreading
his message of self-reliance and inner
strength all over the globe. Even
though Black Flag is a name relegated
to the annals of history, the Rollins
Band and Wartime are going strong
with no sign of letting up, for Henry is
a firm believer in 24-7 activity. “I don’t
believe in the concept of ‘free time’,”
he says. “To me, doing nothing is a
waste.” Perhaps this is the reason for
so many projects, long and extensive

tours, poetry, etc.

Jodi Shapiro

Wartime is totally unlike anything
Henry has done before. While the
Rollins Band is all organic sounds,
Wartime (which is just Henry and
Andrew Weiss) takes electronic
percussion and focuses on a big fat
bass sound, all electronically altered
through wah-wah pedals or flanger.
Their debut EP Fast Food For Thought
is not different lyrically, but is
musically (and logically) the next step
up from the post-hardcore wallop of
the Rollins Band. I caught up with the
extremely busy duo recently and
spent a few minutes discovering what
Wartime is all about. It was the tail
end of a very long day filled with

One thing I noticed about the new EP
is that it’s a lot more electronic
than the stuff the Rollins Band
does.

Andrew: With the Rollins Band it’s
more organic musically, because
there’s four guys kickin’ it live. With
Wartime, musically it’s all me, I can’t
do it all at the same time, so I use a lot
of machines. With Wartime, it’s a
completely different writing process.
The Rollins Band just gets together
and writes the stuff. Wartime is more
like we start with a groove and it
evolves from that.

When did you guys first start the
Wartime project?

Henry: We've had the idea for
Wartime since 1986. In 1987, we had
some time in between tours, so we
decided to do it. It came out a lot
better than I thought it would — I
had no idea what it would be — but
it came out sounding really cool. It’s
different than anything I’ve ever done,
different than anything Andrew’s ever
done. It’s a nice sound. As far as the
singing goes, that was very different.
It was a real challenge, but I think I
pulled it off okay.

Will you take Wartime on tour?

Henry: As far as playing live, Wartime
would take a lot more people on stage
than just me and Andrew, and the
ugly part of it is, it would take money
to get all the people in one place,
‘cause you can’t feed them on sunlight
(laughs). We'll see.

Andrew: It’s more up to the record
company. I think they're going to wait
and see how the record does first. Me
and Henry have very concrete ideas
on what to with it, if given the
opportunity.

Henry: We'd like to try it.

Andrew: And it would be awesome,
no doubt.

This record seems to have taken off,
even though all your other
records have done well, this one
is all over.

Henry: We're used to making secret
records. We make records that
immediately become collectors items.
They come out and they disappear
(Andrew laughs). It’s really nice to go
into a record store and see it sitting
there. Andrew and I have probably
made more records, between the both
of us, than the Rolling Stones. Sad but
true. Now, if you can find any of those
records, well, that’s a nice afternoon in
The Village, wearing out a couple of
pairs of sneakers.

What's the message Wartime is trying to
convey?

Henry: We’re coming from an

up a can of the renowned carbonated

effectively thwarting the onslaught of

“Open your eyes, look around and just

Andrew: For us, it’s just a re-
affirmation of our beliefs. For those
who don’t know what the deal is, or
for those who do know and don’t
want to admit it, it’s like a kick in the
ass.

In the Rollins Band, Henry
belts out songs about pain and
misunderstanding, while guitarist
Chris Haskett reaches the heavens on|
an intricate riff, and the airtight
rhythm section (Sim Caine on drum}
duties and Andrew on bassasaurus ;
rex) shakes the floor below. They play |
hard, sweat and put on an intense, '
riveting and exhausting (physically
and mentally) show, for audience and
band alike. Sim and Andrew have
been working together for about eight
years, in such bands as Scornflakes
and Gone. Consequently, they have an
intimate knowledge of each other’s
styles so deep that even when Sim
decides he wants to be a hardcore
hero (like at Monday’s show),
Andrew doesn’t miss a beat. Henry
can joke around with Chris the way
best buddies do, and the entire band
feed off each other to create a dense,
seamless wall of sound. It is this rare
and special bond between musicians
that makes a band excellent. Add to
that an unwavering sense of ambition
and you can rest assured that the
Rollins Band (and any other projects
the band members get involved with)

LETTERS
Reporting is leftist

To the editor:

On page five of the Friday October 26th’s issue of the
ASP an article entitled “Borders of Occupied Territories
Sealed to Prevent Blood Shed “ was printed. This article
summarized the recent event leading up to the closure of
the borders between Judea, Samaria and the Gaza Strip in
Israel, an area more commonly known as “thé west
bank”. I would like to thank Sergei Shargorsky (the
reporter) and the ASP staff for finally including an article
pertaining to an important issue that is taking place in the
world around us rather than concentrating on the
unimportant and embarrassing issues which SUNYA has
been recently associated with. Unfortunately this article
was totally biased and anti-Israel.

The article presented an Arab (or leftist) view of the
situation in Israel concentrating on Arab deaths and
problems while ignoring those of Israel’s. Israel today is
facing serious problems which it has not had to deal with
in over a decade. The world, ie — the UN, has
condemned Israel for events which occurred which were
beyond her control. That is stifling Arab rioting and
violence which took place during the Succoth holiday
services (in the only way possible). Since that attack
there have been several attacks by Arabs on Jews which
have caused severe injuries and deaths. The attacks
caused the Israeli’s to close the borders (mentioned in
the article title.)

The article seems to assume that the reason the Israeli’s
closed the territories last week was to cause the Arabs
economic problems by not allowing them to return to
their work places. This is untrue! The Israeli’s are scared
of Arabs because all they have proven themselves out to
do is kill Jews and destroy the state of Israel. Israel is
scared for her life because the entire world seems to be
pointing the guns, and chemical weapons, at her, and she
must react as she has to protect herself.

America must realize that Israel’s actions have been
solely for protection purposes. The Jewish nation wants
to remain alive, with secure borders is necessary. On
November 11th RZA is sponsoring a bus to NYC to join
a rally (in front of the UN at the Isain wall) being held
which condemns the UN resolution of 1975, Zionism is
racism, and as can be seen by the biased article written
and by the U.S.’s reaction to current occurrences it is
necessary to once again remind the world that Zionism is
purely a movement of the Jewish people which signifies
their return to Zion (Israel). And it must be supported.

Greeks help SUNYA

To the Editor,

The sisters of Alpha Epsilon Phi are concerned with the
bad publicity that is being directed towards Greeks
recently. It seems as though the administration and the
community view the Greeks as an easy target to blame
and seem to associate any problems that arise stemming
from us.

We feel that this is an unfair assumption which is based
not on fact but on personal bias. The Sisters of Alpha
Epsilon Phi work very hard throughout the school year to
promote valuable services to our community. Some
examples of this include our involvement in the Don’t
Walk Alone program which we do every Monday night
with Sigma Chi. During the next three weeks we are
going to be doing a bowl-a-thon to raise money for the
Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. We are also going to be
doing a fund raiser for the Leukemia Society. In addition
, we are looking into doing something special for a house
of runaway kids. Annually, we raise money for the
American Cancer Society through our spaghetti dinner
and last month we had a successful “Swing-A-Thon”
with Tau Epsilon Phi. These are just some of the “good”
things that our sorority and other Greeks do.

It is time that people took notice of the philanthropy that
is done by Greeks and stopped blaming us for all of the
problems.

Sisters of AEPhi

Program not a sham

To the Editor:

This letter is written in response to P.J. Johnson’s letter
to the ASP on Friday, October 26 — regarding
Volunteers for Israel. Unlike Mr. Johnson, we have
participated in the program (this past summer) and must
put to rest the lies, deception, and general tone of his
letter.

The purpose of Volunteers for Israel is learning about
Jewish Culture, heritage, and people, while helping the
Jewish State. There is nothing political about this
program. There are three general areas of work for the
volunteers. They include work on a kibbutz, hospital, or
army/navy base. Mr Johnson seems most distressed about
the last category (failing to recognize the first two exist),
but considering we did our work on an army base it is
appropriate to respond in this area. Mr, Johnson seems to
condone the fact that Israel maintains an army in the first
place, and that volunteers work on various bases. Israel’s
neighbors are Hussein, Assad, and Arafat — not a very
friendly threesome. Israel has an unfortunate history of
commonly being attacked by her neighbors, and currently
Hussein has made repeated threats against wiping the
Jewish state off the face of the earth. I think it is
reasonable to expect Israel to maintain a large defense
force under these circumstances. If you wish for Israel to
decrease all defense forces, what do you expect Israel to
do, place signs on their boarders that read “Please do not
invade.” Be realistic Mr. Johnson. In any case we are
expecting you to ask for a similar United States shutdown
of bases in West Point, Annapolis, Colorado Springs, and
any other defense forces. Be consistent Mr. Johnson.

The work in itself on the army base was rewarding.
Working, befriending, and socializing with Israelis was
perhaps the best part of the trip. We made numerous
friends on the base. We keep in touch with them and
hope to return to Israel and visit our long distance
friends. Incidentally, while on the army base we did NOT
feel any of the Israeli-Arab tension (could you feel the
NYC tension around here?) We could emphatically say
that; you can not for, you were not in Israel.

Mr. Johnson laments that it is inappropriate for
Volunteers for Israel to recruit on campus. If you don’t
like this, Mr. Johnson, you can simply walk away. Thank
goodness our school does not have a censor like Mr.
Johnson who could approve or disapprove any recruiting

agency. Perhaps Mr. Johnson is emulating Jesse Helms.

Mr Johnson feels “people at this stage in their
development don’t fully understand the ramifications of
their political actions...” yet only the all knowing Mr.
Johnson does!! Quite frankly, we, (nor anyone in this
university) need Mr. Johnson to tell us what is right and
wrong.

It is curious to determine the intent of Mr. Johnson’s
letter. With all his misinformation, we strongly doubt he
is the great champion of peace he proclaims to be. For
years comedians have joked about “Jewish guilt”. This is
not funny, it is a sad fact that is played upon by people
like Mr. Johnson, especially at universities with a large
Jewish population such as Albany. No one in Volunteers
for Israel could even remotely be considered an
“accomplice for murder.” This obnoxious, sarcastic, and
false comment lies at the heart of Mr. Johnson and others
goal — to demean Jews and/or pit Jews against other
Jews, particularly in their attitudes towards Israel. Let us
state, Mr. Johnson, that YOU are wrong in so many ways
and we personally resent your letter and its implications.
Remember, Mr. Johnson, your letter borders on slander
which is a serious crime in America.

We would like to emphasize that Volunteers for Israel
has helped us and many people discover Israel, and give
a sense of pride in Jewish and Israeli traditions. We
highly recommend the program to those interested. Even
those who are not interested in participating please be
aware of the deceiving and cunning tactics used by
people like Mr. Johnson.

"Womyn" use clarified

To the Editor,

There has been a lot of uproar lately over the way
Student Association spells ‘womyn’. Please let me
address a few concerns: The only place the spelling
change will occur will be in the office of Womyn’s Issues
Coordinator, not in all SA publications as printed in local
media. Any publication that lists the office of Womyn’s
Issues Coordinator will have that office spelled with a
‘y’. That is all that the legislation that passed OVER a
month ago changed.

Tam sorry for any confusion that this may have caused
anybody. Again, the ONLY place that the spelling
change will be made is in the office of Womyn’s Issues
Coordinator. If anyone has questions regarding this, or
anything else, please feel free to contact me at the
Student Association Office.

Jeffrey Luks
Central Council Chair

A woman, not a womyn

To the Editor:

lam writing this letter in response to the Student
Association and “Student Voice’s” decision to change the
spelling of “woman” from that of an “a” to that of a ““y”
in their publications.

I, as a woman (notice the spelling!) am not only
opposed to this change but think it the most ridiculous
and pointless thing I have ever heard of. I am all for
female rights but any woman who is so unsure of herself
and her gender that she needs to tackle things like the
spelling of words, has a real self-esteem problem.
People!... these are words; mere symbols that we use for
the convenience of communication. The meaning behind
the words is what’s important. I would prefer to have
women on my side at the university that have better
goals for equality and women’s rights than spelling.

What about sexual harassment? What about female to
male ratios of faculty and professors? And what about
greater salary equity? These are the issues, along with the
attitudes of men, that need to be addressed.

I am ashamed to say that my half of the human race
thought up this scheme! I think these kinds of antics
defeat our efforts to obtain equal treatment on basis of
equal intelligence. It really makes us seem like a bunch
of “coffee- committee-"bimbos.

I cannot be the only one who feels this way at SUNY
Albany and elsewhere. All of you radicals out there: get
radical about something
that counts and I’ll be behind you all the way!

fact our candidate (Rinfret) lacks
the political experience and
knowledge that’s a necessary
ingredient to be a successful
public official today.”

In the Syracuse area, GOP
leaders plan to drop off
campaign material at the door of
every Republican voter twice
before Tuesday. “We’ve heard
the apathy out there ... but we're
going to be making a push to get
the Republicans out,” says
county chairman Robert
Giarrusso.

In 1986, much of the voter
apathy was blamed on a election
that pitted Cuomo against
Westchester County Executive

| Andrew O’Rourke, who lacked

the money to wage a credible
campaign,

In the end, Cuomo won 65
percent of the vote compared to
32 percent for O’Rourke.

Cuomo’s first run for governor
was more competitive, pitting
him against Lewis Lehrman.
That race ended with Cuomo
getting 51 percent of the vote to
47 for Lehrman.

That contest saw 73 percent of
Tegistered voters casting ballots,
compared to 55 percent in 1986.

the message to students.”

Nancy also suggested that students
explore homosexuality by students before
college.

“Tn high school you talked about family
planning and sex but you never talked
about homosexuality,” she said.

“We should be more socially clear
about the issue. People in the University
need to be better sexually informed for a
deeper understanding,” said Gloria
DeSole, Director of Affirmative Action,

This semester SUNYA offers only one
class on homosexuality. “Homosexuality
and the American Society” is taught by
Steven Seidman, of the Sociology
Department.

“The University has a strong
commitment to integrate diversity in its
curriculum. They should provide space to
teach and students to demand courses on
homosexuality,” Seidman said.

But, he said, “Teaching a course may be
a risky decision to faculty who don’t have
tenure. It’s not especially valued.”

“Students have to make their demand
felt. Professors and students should make
an issue of it and let their concerns be
heard,” Seidman said.

“The point would be to see
heterosexuality as a choice, not as a
constraint,” said Teresa de Lauretis,
professor at Santa Cruz. “But you can
only see it as a choice when you allow
homosexuality to be a choice as well.”

Drinking age makes

Virginia colleges

according to poll

(CPS)- Some 92 percent of the undergrad
students at eight Virginia colleges say they
regularly drink alcohol, an Oct. 16 study
by the University of Virginia’s Institute
for Substance Abuse found.

In contrast, 93 percent of the students
older than age 21 said they drank.

“The 21-year-old drinking law made no
difference,” concluded study director
Randolph Canterbury.

(CPS)- The U.S. Secret Service charged a

July to manufacture Fake cashier’s checks
worth more than $50,000.

Officials said student Anthony Grewel,
21, and friend David Martin, 23, scanned
bank logos into a Macintosh computer
and, using a common illustration program,
allegedly printed counterfeit cashier’s
checks on a laser printer.

In announcing the arrest Oct. 16, a
Secret Service spokesman said the two
had used the cash to buy a bicycle, some
ski equipment, a dining room set and a
$17,000 computer.

Students protest for

at St. Olaf College

(CPS)- Students chanted slogans and gave
condoms to alumni visiting St. Olaf
College’s Oct. 13 Homecoming events to
protest President Melvin George’s refusal
to install condom vending machines in the
student union and in dorm restrooms.

Protest organizer Jennifer Kirmsse,
conceding that students can get condoms
at the campus health clinic and in nearby
Northfield, argued that “in the heat of the
moment, it’s a little hard to say, ‘Wait a
minute, I’ve got to run down to the
hospital’ or take a three-mile hike to

“I’m always glad to hear students
expressing their opinion,” replied George.

Laser technology seems to be the way to go in breast cancer treatment

By JANE HARRIMAN

For women with breast cancer,
surgery by laser — and not by
knife — has become an option
worth considering.

Laser surgery is less traumatic
to their bodies and minds, and
researchers suggest it could
reduce the chance the cancer will
recur.

But despite promising
research, even its advocates
caution that it’s misleading to
suggest laser surgery can lessen
the chance of recurrence.

Dr. Raymond J. Lanzafame Jr.,
a surgeon at Rochester (N.Y.)
General Hospital, has been doing
research for nine years on the use
of lasers to remove breast
cancers in animals. He says his
work and two small studies of
humans suggest lasers may
reduce cancer recurrence.

Lanzafame thinks women who
need breast cancer surgery
should have the procedure done
with a laser, if it is available and
if “the surgeon is capable of
using it well. There is certainly
no disadvantage, and | think
patients are wise in having it
done that way.”

Jo Anne Gibson of Fort
Wayne, Ind., agrees. When she
learned she had breast cancer,
Gibson did a little research and
some surgeon-shopping. She
traveled to Long Island, N.Y., to
have surgery by laser.

Gibson, 44, chose Dr, Vincent
J. Ansanelli Jr., a specialist in
breast cancer in Plainview, N.Y.
Ansanelli, who was trained at
Columbia Presbyterian Hospital
in New York City, has used only
lasers for breast cancer surgery
since 1984,

Gibson was convinced from
the experiences of acquaintances
that lasers and Ansanelli were
the way to go.

“J don’t want to create any
controversy with my colleagues
who are doing very well with the
scalpel but, obviously, I feel it
(laser surgery) has certain
benefits,” Ansanelli said. “The
surgical field is drier, the surgery

is very precise, there’s a smaller ~

wound because it has a fine

For the patient, Ansanelli said,
benefits include a briefer hospital
Stay, less post-surgical pain and
less drainage from the wound.
He does the biopsy, a small
tissue sample, by laser in his
office and if necessary can do a
lumpectomy in half an hour.

When a breast tumor is
removed, Ansanelli said, “better
than 20 to 30 percent of the time,
you leave tumor cells behind. If
you lase the bed tissue that is
exposed after the tumor is
removed, those tumor cells are
destroyed.”

In laser surgery, the operating
toom looks the same as it does
during a regular operation except
that personnel wear special
glasses to protect their eyes.
Because the laser is hot there is a
slight chance of fire, and the
surgical field is surrounded with
damp towels. Sterile water and
fire extinguishers are on hand.

Lanzafame said, “As far as the
long-term advantage, there

appears to be early data, yes, but
there is no real guarantee it is
going to be a magic bullet.

“It’s an ongoing process as far
as human __ information,”
Lanzafame said. Two studies on
the recurrence rate in humans

were reported in 1986 from
Munich, Germany, and Tel Aviv,
Israel, Lanzafame said.

“Both indicate there was a
lower recurrence in their laser
patients,” Lanzafame said. But
the German study followed

women only for five years, and
the Israeli study for 10 years.
And both groups used only a few
women.

What is needed now, he says,
are studies that follow thousands
of women for 15 to 20 years.

Tough season ends for women's tennis esti ay at wey
By Andrew Schotz
SPORTS EDITOR

Numbers simply don’t tell the full story behind the fall season recently completed by the Albany
women’s tennis team. Consider that the team finished winless in eight matches, yet, based largely on
strength of schedule, was voted to participate in the 16-team NCAA Division III championship art
tournament, where it finished thirteenth. A killer schedule, including Vassar, Middlebury, Hamilton, and
Binghamton — all tennis powers, seemed to sway the selection committee’s view in Albany’s favor.

According to new Albany coach Larry Yakubowski, the program currently faces two major problems:
stability and depth.

Yakubowski believed that many of the teams have an advantage over the Great Danes before they even S 3 ‘

years,” Yakubowski said. “Considering all we were very competitive with these schools.” ‘ourth, seventh, fourteenth and eee

Perhaps more glaring is Albany’s lack of depth. The Danes were only seven strong, facing schools
which often had ten to twelve players. The result was that much of the team was playing in unnatural
positions and facing singles opponents they weren’t properly matched with. Much of this problem was (0), Hamilion College (138), University of | Rochester (142),

The teams strength apparently was its #1 doubles (Glendening/Herman). the duo finished 5-2 and
advanced to the NCAA toumament quarterfinals, before bowing in three sets to Vassar, the overall #2
seed.

Yakubowski also is high on the play of freshman Janine Kennedy, who won both matches she played.

He feels that he can turn the team around in the spring by using the returning starters plus Kennedy,
freshman Stacey Sacco and former #1 singles Krissy Saglimbeni as a foundation.

Another factor working in the Danes’ favor in their march towards improvement is Yakubowski’s ra
recruiting. With the instability Albany has faced, this has been a tougher task then it should be. But next
year, Takubowski notes, two players who are ranked by the Eastern Tennis Association will be attending
Albany.

As for this season, Yakubowski was impressed with how his team fought through an uphill struggle. “I
have tremendous respect for the members,” he said. “Their sense of pride and spirit was high all year.”

Danes need Potaily kicks to defeat Elmira

By Andrew Schotz
SPORTS EDITOR

Tension-filled excitement
blazed through the Albany
soccer bleachers on Wednesday
afternoon, as more than two
hundred spectators saw Albany’s
men’s team squeak past Elmira
College 4-3 in quarter-final
ECAC action. The teams battled
through 120 minutes of play, but
the winner was not decided until
Elmira’s Pierce Devaney missed
in the last round of sudden-death
penalty kicks. Albany (12-4-1)
will travel to meet the region’s
#2 seed Alfred (11-5) on
Saturday. The other semifinal
will have #1 Plattsburgh (13-2-2)
hosting #4 Clarkson (12-5) who
defeated Binghamton on
Wednesday to move on.

Albany, the #3 seed, seemed
poised to rebound from their loss
to Plattsburgh last week, and
needed less than 11 minutes to
put a goal on the board. Marty
Hearney was obstructed on a
drive to the goal, but promptly
lined a free kick low but
headable, which is exactly what
freshman midfielder Paul Feeny
did to put the Danes up 1-0. It
was Feeny's first goal of the
year, and Hearney’s sixth assist.

Sixth-seeded Elmira (12-5)
had an excellent chance to tie the
game in the 14th minute, but
back Gary Safran headed away
Earl Cox's shot off the goal line.

In the twenty-third minute, the
Soaring Eagles caught Albany
off guard to even the game at 1.
Alan Brown allowed the Danes’
defense no time to set up and
found forward Dennis French
all alone near the goal. French’s
volley easily beat Albany goalie

Curt Mundorff to the far post.

The Danes retook the lead in
the 38th minute thanks to their
scoring machine, senior co-
captain Lee Tschantret. Rich
Ferber fed Tschantret in Elmira’s
penalty box, and Tschantret
whacked a shot past keeper Chris
Lynch, his sixteenth goal of the
season,

After the intermission,
mediocrity seemed to creep back
into Albany’s play. Constant
Elmira pressure caused the Dane
defense to forego possession and
concentrate on clearing the ball,
but they didn’t enjoy much
success at it. The Eagles
snapped up a loose ball in the
78th minute, managed a shot,
and on the rebound, French
found net for the second time,
with an assist from Mike Leahy.

It was shortly after that the
crowd became the Danes’ 12th
man, The Danes started to spend
more time in Eagles’ territory
and appeared to have caught
some of the enthusiasm in the
air.

With only 3:05 left in
regulation, Albany fans may
have had flashes of defeat zip
through their heads. A defensive
breakdown allowed French to
gain an advantageous position in
the Dane penalty area once
again. When foot met ball,
Albany’s play-off life appeared
in danger, because French’s shot
had a clear path toward the
goalmouth. Along came
Mundorff, who flung his body
and cut off said path in what was
without doubt the save of the
year. The rebound was cleared
after Elmira’s Gary Flood

Albany freshman Paul Feeny scored the Great Danes' first goal in his first start of the season.

couldn’t convert the rebound.
Before regulation time ended,
there was nearly an gly incident
on the field. With but five
seconds left, Tschantret was
thwarted on a drive to the goal
by Eagles’ back Dan Burger.
However, Burger and another
back proceeded to sandwich
Tschantret, dragging him to the
ground after the play was over.
There was nearly an altercation,
and Burger was given a yellow
card. Tschantret, however, was
ejected (he had picked up a
yellow card just minutes earlier)
and forced to sit out the rest of
the game, leaving the Danes a
man down. He will also be
ineligible for action in

tomorrow’s semifinal.

In the sixth minute of the first
overtime period, the Eagles
repeated their quick-kick
strategy. Albany seemingly
expected Dermont McGrane to
touch the ball to a teammate on a
direct kick. Instead, McGrane
stepped into the ball and sent it
past the frozen Dane defense for
a 3-2 Elmira lead.

Fewer than two minutes elapsed
before a dangerous attack by
Hearney was cleared by the
Eagles’ defense. This somewhat
played into Albany’s hands- or
more specifically, Mike
Avallone’s hands. Avallone,
adept at the long throw-in, struck

Ho Young J. Lee UPS

again and co-captain Mark
Newfield tumed his left foot into
a volley to knot the game 3-3.
The second overtime was
scoreless and it was on to
penalty kicks- five for each side
or until one team was ahead.

The crowd quickly gathered
along the sidelines, almost three
hours having passed since the
game had begun.

Alan Brown went first for
Elmira and converted. Mundorff
answered for Albany. Mike
Leahy made it 2-1 Eagles, and
when Andy Nadboy missed for
the Danes, the outlook again was
looking bleak for Albany.

However, McGrane’s shot
went over the crossbar and
Ferber evened things at 2.
Flood’s kick was wide left.
Heamey fooled Lynch to make it
3-2 Albany. Only one shot was
left for Elmira and they sent
Devaney out to save them.

“Coach and I agree that it’s
better to wait,” Mundorff said,
teferring to penalty-kick strategy.
“It’s better to make them hit it in
the corner than up the middle.”

“From analyzing World Cup
tapes,” Albany coach Aldo
Nardiello said, “too many guys
guess and dive and it goes up the
middle. Hold your ground. Force
him to place it within two yards
of each post.”

Basically, Devaney had either
comer if he wanted it. The ball
didn’t cooperate for him, and
travelled just over the crossbar.
The fans rushed deliriously onto
the field, mobbing the Danes.

Thus ended a simply stunning
game, one tough to put in fitting
words. “I have no explanation,”
admitted Nardiello.
