The experience that makes the deepest difference in
any person is the experience of going to college. It is
here that the man, the woman, is created; for it is
here that thinking begins, and in our society there is
no more noticeable difference that the difference be-
tween the thoughtful and the unthoughtful person.
Perhaps nothing does more to intensify this exper-
ience than the reading of books. Why is this so? The
answer lies in the potential that the reading of books
offers for developing the processes of thought, in the
college student who has taken the most advantage of
this potential in his years at college.
Books stretch the mind—the most elastic thing a
human being possesses.
The student who forms the
habit of letting this experience happen to him should
never lose it, though he will probably exercise it less
in latér years.
In college he is expected to read
books; to take in the whole of a long argument or ex-
position or narrative; to keep the parts of it before
him as he reads,
and to see them
in their natural
relation; to live with an author for hours or days or
weeks, to venture through new worlds as if he hada
right to be there.
The world of a_ college
is many worlds, all of
which will be new to the freshman, varied and ever
changing to the upperclassman, His passport through
these worlds is his desire and his ability to read, He
will come back from his intellectual journeys in col-
lege a richer person than the one who went.
He will have attended classes and listened to lec-
tures, and participated in discussions, These are es-
sential to the college experience; yet the reading of
books is just as important. And its peculiar feature
is that it is done alone, at night or at strange hours,
when the student is his own master, bent upon cul-
tivating the mind that is uniquely his.
This mind of his is, of course, engaged in a rivalry
with other minds; for a college has many good minds;
students are competitors as well as peers. But no
form of competition is more genial; it is a race for
intellectual
triumph.
The habit of reading books is the clearest indi
satisfaction and
happiness, not mere
ion
of an educated person, whether in or out of college.
But it starts in college, forany student who is genuinely
there,
reading, he develops it.
The good reader not only uses his mind in
Nothing is more rewarding
than the first of these; nothingis nobler than the second.

Governor Rockefeller’s ‘Pay-As-You-Go’ System
To Collapse With Its ‘Day of Reckoning’
by Gary Luctok
In my column last week, you will
recall, | made reference to the fact
that the consequences of Mr. Rock-
efeller’s fiscal ‘*shinanigans,’’ as!
called them, could only he disas-
trous for him and for the people of
this state.
I would like at this time to expand
briefly on this point.
First of all, let us take a con-
cise tour through the ruins of
“‘pay-as-you-go.’’ I have already
mentioned two of our Governor's
contrivances for concealing deficit
financing.
These are his depletion of the
Capital Construction Fund's re-
serves and the pressuring of vari-
ous public agencieg to return to the
state cash allotments granted to
them previously by the state.
Add to these the important de-
vice of moving up the payment
dates of every tax he possibly can,
such as the collecting of fourteen
months withholding taxes in twelve
months.
Two Budgets
The last is the extremely clever
scheme of eliminating from the
state budget various regular ex-
penditures that cannot be financed
except by borrowing (i.e. State Uni-
versity capital outlays) and, having
removed them, proclaiming that
he has halanced the budget.
Arthur Levitt, the State Comp-
troller, in referring to Mr. Rocke-
feller’s shifty methods of financing
state expenditures has said ‘‘...
we are using future revenue to
meet today’s costs---a procedure
which will have its day of reckon-
ing.**
This “day of reckoning’ will
come with an outright increase in
state taxes, for this will be the
only alternative. His removal of
certain expenditures from the state
budget and his subsequent financing
of these by borrowing, plus his
depletion of the state's cash re-
serves can have only one result—
a cash deficit.

Temporary Income
Add to this fact that the tax
collection advances and that the
repayment he expects from cer-
tain public authorities can only be
effective sources of revenue for
One or two years.
After that one or two years,
they will not be available, yet the
expenditures which they have sup-
ported will continue.
Consequently, funds in support
of these expenditures will have to
be raised hy other means; since
our Governor has just about ex-
hausted his bag of tricks, he will
have to resort to a tax increase
if he is to maintain the myth of
“‘pay-as-you-go,""
Bonds Available
I think that an important side-
light to the topic under discus-
sion should here he brought out
In 1956 the legislature passed
and the people approved a $500
million bond issue which was to
help finance, among other things,
highway construction and expan-
sion of the State University.
To date, some $410 million worth
of these bonds remain unsold. To
sell these honds would he an out-
right violation of the ‘pay you-
go" theory on which the Governor
has staked his political career
(And as we know, our Governor
tends to shy away from such words
as “outright."")
Controlled Borrowing
Actually, it has been stated hy
many, including Mr. Levitt, that
there is nothing wrong with a
limited amount of borrowing if
done prudently, [t is worth noting
that this $410 million in unsold
bonds would have far exceeded the
various ‘fee’ increases the Gov-
ernor had proposed
I helieve it was Louis NV who
said, ‘'\fter me, the deluge!" It
would seem to me that these words
could apply equally as well to Mr
Rockefeller.
He expects to he comfortably
situated in the White House when
the fiseal structure of this state
comes crumbling to the ground
The question we must ask our
selves in 1964 is whether we want
to entrust our fate and the fate of
our country to a man who has
repeatedly violated the public
trust; can Mr. Rockefeller ever
be trusted again?

To Be Enforced
Beginning March 11, Campus
Commission will begin stricter
enforcement of the parking rules.
Warnings will be issued to those
students who do not comply with
the regulations.
As spring approaches, Campus
Commission is again going to en-
force parking rules. Regular daily
enforcement will start on Monday,
March 11, and warnings will be
issued for improper parking or
parking without a permit.
All_warnings previously issued
will be discarded. Student drivers
are warned against parking so as
to block other cars or an exit or
entrance to the parking lot.
Warnings will be given for the
first and second offense. The
third offense and any following it
will be accompanied by a fine
against the student.
A limited number of parking
permits are now available in the
Student Personnel Office for those
students desiring one. A parking
permit does not assure anyone
of a place to park in the parking
lot; it merely gives a student
the right to park there

years after it was removed by
the State I egislature. Last month

STATE UNIVERSITY NEWS, FRIDAY, MARCH 8, 1963
Suppression of Expression?
The term ‘publications board’’ has been
bandied about for almost two years now. In
that time the number of vague, unconsider-
ed purposes attached to the term has run
the gamut from one extreme to another.
The latest purpose proposed by the ad-
ministration seems to be that of censor-
ing suppression. Since suppression’s
beginning many months ago, we have
watched with deep and sincere interest
the weekly comment and expression of our
small, sensitive, sometimes strange, but
generally stirring sister publication.
We feel that suppression is answering
a need that could not be catered to in
ours or any conventional newspaper. This
need is that of a small segment of bright
young people with unconventional turns of
mind, people who can be eloquently vocal
but who do not deal in the rather prosaic
segments of university life.
These people are vividly and stiumula-
tingly alive in an intellectual sphere
that many of us will never be able to
attain, Not ability, but interest and
thought separate these few from the medi-
ocre, conforming students around them.
We feel that less independent students
have been inspired and provoked by the
new perspective.
But now what has been worthwhile to
hundreds of students may, ironically
enough, fulfill its name, Ex-president
Condojani has been caught between two
forces, ‘the expression of suppression”
and ‘‘suppression of expression.’’ He has
been shoved by ‘‘pure’’ conservatives into
questioning the content of suppression
week after week.
It is unfortunate that people seeking
filth will find it, even if they have to
look under an altar cloth or between the
pages of the Bible. It seems a pretty
safe bet that such people’s morals have
degenerated to a rather low level when
they continually interpret things in the
worst possible manner.
Sensationalism has been emphasized as
part of suppression’s general immoral-
ity. We have not, however, seen any
instance in which suppression has printed
material fitting the Supreme Court defin-
ition of pornography, i.e., intending to
arouse sexual desire.
Neither has suppression printed any-
thing so ‘obscene’? as many of the por-
tions of James Joyce’s Ulysses, required
reading for a course offered last semes-
ter. We also remember News ‘Com-
monstaters’’? who magnified and distorted
college situations until an objective read-
er would be aghast with amazement.
No hue and cry was raised against
these people who were dishonest in their
Picayune way, but then it was ‘inside
information” rather than intelligence that
was needed for determining what they
were saying.
With indefinite rumors circulating about
a publications board, we feel that every
campus publication has as much at stake
as suppression, We do not think that any-
one not a member of a particular pub-
lication should determine that organiza-
tion’s editorial policy. Editors of other
publications would not necessarily be
capable of determining appropriate con-
tent for any publication, let alone such
a ‘different’? publication as suppression,
Why should the editor of the student
directory necessarily have much more
knowledge and insight about news inter-
pretation and literary expression that the
administration, MYSKANIA, the SA Pres-
ident, of Senate?
One of the most inspiring aspects of
this campus now is the variety of its pub-
lications. If we should let one group de-
termine the content of all publications,
the student body would be deprived of
the independent thinking and off-beat ideas
so necessary to the academic atmos-
phere, We have fought faculty advisors;
we fight student advisors just as ada-
mantly,
An intrinsic American heritage is at
stake: freedom of_the press, It cannot
be bandied about lightly. We of the News
do not feel that we or anyone else is
justified in trying to dictate editorial
policy to suppression,
We could not under any circumstances
tolerate interference withour integrity as
a self-run and autonomously controlled
news organ; we do not see any reason
why suppression should tolerate such
a challenge to its integrity. If people
are going to defend the adoption of a
publications board, we suggest that they
think carefully before determining its
function,
We suggest that such a board could
assist the various organizations on mat-
ters pertaining to financial and technical
areas of common concern, The board
could also provide a way of organizing
the various publications for represen-
tation in the proposed student govern-
ment Assembly.
We feel very strongly, however, that a
publications hoard should have neither
the privilege nor the responsibility of
setting editorial policy for the greatly
varying publications at this university.
We might well consider carefully a state-
ment of Thomas Jefferson:
‘Where the press is free, and every
man able to read, all is safe,’
Although greatly contested, our freedom
of the press has thus far managed to sur-
vive. Now, if only every man would learn
to read...

SEA Desires People With Talent;
Writers and Artists Needed
As part of a plan to revitalize
its program, Student Education
Association is presenting an op-
portunity for self-expression to
those members with some artistic
talent.
The organization needs several
people with writing skills to pre-
pare notices of meetings and re-
ports of activities for the campus
papers. Since the styles and types
of articles will be in keeping with
the stylistic tendencies of the sev-
eral publications, a variety of types
of writers are needed.
Writers are also needed to main-
tain contact with state andnational
professional publications.
The organization is also inter-
ested in people who can design
posters. People are needed to
letter and/or illustrate placards
announcing meetings, speakers,
professional program, and so
forth,

available for illustrating articles
for campus and professional pub-
lications,

on the Catholic Worker movement.
The ‘Catholic Worker’ is con-
sidered by most as a lay publica-
tion and is politically non-partisan,
Its political outlook on the domes-
tic scene is that of the Utopian
Socialist and on the national, it
supports a unilateral disarmament
position.
The ‘Catholic Worker’’ is both
a movement and a publication. The
banner head of its paper, a negro
and a white worker clasping hands
in front of a figure of Christ, is
indicative of its philosophy—that
of brotherhood among workers.
Communication
To the Editor:
In the last edition of the News,
there appeared an editorial com-
plaining about the conditions of
the sidewalks around the main
buildings. It also stated ‘that
the University can donothingabout
the ice between the dorms and the
college.’’ But what about the walks
around the dorms themselves?
Take, for example, the walks
around Alden, Pierce, and Bru-
bacher. It seems they were de-
signed so that all the water from
the melting snow would collect on
them, Lurking under the water
are patches of ice and snow, Al-
so at night, the lighting on Ontar-
io Street is insufficient to see all
these ‘hooby traps."?
At first it seemed a little ab-
surd that freshmen are required
to take swimming lessons in the
middle of winter. Now I know
why this is done, These lessons
are preparing the student for the
spring thaw when his only mode
of travel will be swimming.
However, with the use of some
imagination, one can pretend that
he is in Venice, Only the gon-
dolas are lacking.

Spinning the
Sports Wheel
by Bill Colgan
ht
Now that all has been done and said about the State
Basketball Tournament, we can’t help but raise a
question which we are sure has been on the minds
of many State’s athletic fans. Why was the tourna-
ment held in Cortland, when it would have been much
better and much more logical to hold ithere in Albany?
A quick look at the merits of both towns leaves.
no doubt that all concerned would have been benefitted
by having the tournament here. When we speak of all
concerned, we mean not only the teams involved and
Albany, but Cortland also. Let us itemize.
(1) There can be very little comparison with the
respective basketball facilities at both colleges.
For, while the Cortland gym bears no resemblance to
our beloved Page, the Washington Armory offers ac-
commodations for nearly a thousand more people than
Cortland.
(2) The city of Albany offers far better housing
facilities for the teams and their followers than Cort-
land, At Cortland, the teams had to live in motels
and eat their meals in the college residence halls
several miles away. Many of the fans who poured
into the city didn’t even have motels to sleep in.
(3) And finally, the explosive nature of any such
tournament makes Albany a better choice. We will
not go into the unfortunate incidents at Cortland, but
will limit ourselves to saying that the heavy-drinking
fans who are drawn to these tournaments would be
spread out in a city the size of Albany. That this is
desirable cannot be denied, as proved by events,
UNKNOWNS COP AMIA BOWLING RACE
AS ROEGNER SMASHES 623 SERIES
‘The Unknowns padded their al-
ready insurmountable lead in the
AMIA Scratch League this week,
as they picked up five more points
on their nearest competitor. The
Unknowns won 5-2 as they downed
the Sophs easily. In the process
they established a new high team
single as they hit a spectacular
936!
In the other results Waterbury
downed the KB team 5-2, Newman
Club squeaked by TXO 5-2, winning
the match by only 32 pins, and
Potter swamped the Goobers 7-0.
Roegner Outstanding
It was the spectacular bowling
of Dave Roegner once again that
led the Unknowns to victory. Dave
spilled the pins for games of 209,

Sixth-Seeded Peds Reach Finals
Before Bowing to Potsdam 49-40
by Gary Smith
ALMOST ~ BUT NOT QUITE, That
seems to be the story of the varsity bi
etball five this year os they finished
second in the Cortland Tournament to end
their season. The Peds won 12 games
and lost 11 during the regular season. Of
the 1] games that the team lost 5 were
lost by 2 points or |
Well, the team e d the Tourna-
ment with few, if ony, people expecting
them to survive the first round against
second seeded Oswego. Not only did the
team finish off the Lakers but they beat
Buffalo State and got into the Finals be-
fore losing o heartbreaker to Potsdam
Stote. It's been that kind of a year!
When asked about the team's
season und performance at Cort-
land, Sauers said, The rebounding
of the team has improved steadily
throughout the second half of the
season, This was in evidence in
the first two games of the Tourna-
ment against Oswego and Buffalo
when we completely controlled the
hourds, | was not surprised about
our two opening victories hecause
I have felt all year long that we
had a better club than most that
we played, The competition is
getting tougher all the time.”
When asked about next year
the coach said that we hoped the
team could return to Cortland to
participate in the affair if the
college doesn't go through with
plans to take Albany out of the
Conference He said that things
would be much brighter for next
year if some proposed graduates
of two year colleges would transfer
to Albany
Peds Overwhelm
Oswego 65—53
Getting back to the Tournament,
the Peds faced the same team from
Oswego that they had beatena week
before by a 75-63 count. The game
was no picnic as the Peds found
themselves trailing at halftime by
a 33-26 margin
The Sauersmen, who have fought
back all season long, made no ex-
ception here as they reversed the
trend of play the first halfand took
the lead through fine defense and
hustle
\l one point in the second half,
the Peds ran off a streak of 10
straight points while holding the
Lakers in check.
Peds Romp
It soon became evident that Al-
bany was an inspired team and
that they were on their way to
an opening round win in the tour-
ney. As it turned out, the squad
won hy the same margin it had
a week ago, this time scoring 10
points less and triumphing 65-53.
This was an important victory
for the team because they soon
learned that they would not have
to face the first seeded team of
the Tourney, Cortland, who had
heen knocked off hy New Paltz

The big men for Albany were

back on the court after inter-
mission and staged a rally of the
first order, scoring 8 straight
points to take a 26-25 lead with
14:50 to go in the game,
This was the last time that the

ways at State, and the birth of a
tourist attraction on our campi.
We speak, of course, of Lake
Minerva, the greatest thing that’s
happened to water since the Pacific
Ocean, Lake Minerva currently
lies in a solidified form on dorm
field, and at its present rate of
growth should cover most of Al-
bany within a dozen years. When
that glorious moment arrives,
Lake George will draw as many
tourists as Old Miss, and State will
have reached its desired place in
the sun,
Imagine the success story!
“From its humble beginnings as
an ice skating rink (which nobody
bothered to use,) Lake Minerva
has spread out over the north-
eastern United States, until today
it draws thousands of retired tour-
ists from Florida and sundry other
places,
In the meantime, of course,
problems will arise while Lake
Minerva is a-building. Let us item-
ize:
(1) At the current time dorm
field is covered by more than a
foot of man-made ice.
(2) When the temperature goes
above 32° ice melts.
(3) Even in Albany, the temp-
erature goes above 32°,
(4) When ice melts,
lots of water is created.
(5) Lots and lots of water has
been known to back up sewage
systems.
(6) When sewage systems back
up things get messy.
(7) When things get as messy
as that, even the Albany Health
Department steps in.
(8) When the Albany Health De-
partment steps in, things will
really get messy.
But hold, we make too much of
Lake Minerva’s drawbacks. After
all, at least dorm field will bene-
fit. Dorm field is guaranteed the
best crop of grass it's had in years.

Father Describes
Campus Current
by Pat Jewell
“All things come to him who waits.’’
Today I want to discuss something which I do not
believe is sufficiently appreciated here in the college
dorms; that unique and singular phenomenon known
as “the dinner line.’’ I say unique andsingular because
no where else in your life will you stand in such a line
again (unless, of course, teachers’ pay gets worse than
ever and we have to go to the Soup Societies of the
Salvation Army.)
Probably most of you are already familiar with the
dinner line; winding from the cafeteria doors, up the
stairs, and along the hall, the people in it leaning
against the walls, knitting, or trying to read as they
move slowly along.
Some of you may take this experience each day for
granted now, but it is something that you will much
note and long remember as you go on in life. For
consider what would meals be like without it! And
think, you apartment dwellers and faculty, what you
are missing! Do YOU have a chance to stand for
half an hour after dinner is ready and, while your
stomach faintly grumbles, contemplate what food awaits
you? Do you realize how much better this makes you
appreciate the meal once you get it, and with how much
better an appetite you eat?
What an aesthetic experience it is when, after long
anticipation, you at last enter those sacred portals of
the cafeteria to glimpse—ah, something new every
night! It may be meat soaked with gravy, a mound of
mashed potatoes and canned peas, arranged with in-
finite care and loving individual precision on your
plate. Or it may be a pile of spaghetti with a little
circle of crimson sauce on it and two cork-sized
meatballs. Or—but the possibilities are endless, with
Friday being the most exciting night of all.
What a thrill for the student as, after waiting so
interminably long, he lifts his plate from the counter
and, trembling with tender joy (or is it hunger?) sets
it on his tray. Surely THIS is the high point of every
dorm dweller’s day, and surely he would not appreciate
it half so much if he did not have to wait in line.
I would like to end this column with a recommenda-
tion. Due to the benefits of waiting in line, as I said,
the students not only have a heightened aesthetic ex-
perience with food, but also have a heightened appetite.
This can lead to dangerous consequences: bad table
manners, or, to put it another way, gobbling the food,
which, indeed, also is bad for the digestion.
Thus, to remind the students of this danger, I should
like to see inscribed over each dining room door a
kind of paraphrase from Henry David Thoreau, the
famous transcendentalist. This would be a place for
the eyes of all to see as they pass under the door-arch
with their long-awaited tray, and it should say:
Remember; not that food which entereth
into the mouth defileth a man, but the
appetite with which it is eaten.
I’m sure these inspiring words will help thembear
their table manners in mind, and as a result put an
end to the only drawback caused by that otherwise most
beneficial experience, that of waiting in dinner line.

HAIL TO THE DEAN!
Today let us examine that much maligned, widely misunder-
stood, grossly overworked, wholly dedicated campus figure —
the dean.
The dean (from the Latin Deanere—to expel) is not, as many
think, primarily a disciplinary officer. He is a counselor and
guide, a haven and refuge for the troubled student. The dean
(from the Greek Deanos—to skewer) is characterized chiefly by
sympathy, wisdom, patience, forbearance, and a fondness for
homely pleasures like community singing, farina, spelldowns,
and Marlboro Cigarettes. The dean (from the German Deange-
macht—to poop a party) is fond of Marlboros for the same
reason that all men of good will are fond of Marlboros— because
Marlboro is an honest cigarette. Those good Marlboro tobaccos
are honestly good, honestly aged to the peak of perfection, hon-
estly blended for the best of all possible flavors. Marlboro
honestly comes in two different containers—a soft pack which
is honestly soft and a Flip-Top box which honestly flips. You
too will flip when next you try an honest Marlboro, which, one
honestly hopes, will be soon.
lots and
sew it tla dry eve 0 Wika
But T digress, We were learning how a dean helps poor,
troubled undergraduates. To illustrate, let us take a typical
ease from the files of Dean 8. . of the University of Y
(Oh, why be so mysterious? The dean's name is Sigafoos and
the University is Yutah.)
Wise, kindly Dean Sigafoos was visited one day by u fresh-
man named Walter Aguincourt who came to ask permission to
marry one Emma Blenheim, his dormitory lwundress. To the
dean the marriage seemed ill-advised, for Walter was only 18
years old and Emin was 91, Walter agreed with the dean, but
said he felt obligated to go through with it because Emma hud
invested her life savings in a transparent rainhood to protect
her from the mist at Niagara Fulls, where they planned to spend
their honeymoon, [f Walter culled off the wedding, what use
would the poor woman possibly have for uw rainhood in Yutah?
The wise, kindly dean pondered briefly und came up with a
brilliant answer: let Walter punch holes in the back of Emma's
steam iron, With steam billowing back at the old lady, she
would find u rainhood very useful possibly even. essential,
Whimpering with gratitude, Walter kissed the dean's Phi
Beta Kappa key and hastened away to follow his advice — und
the results, [ain pleased to report, were madly successful!
Today Einma is a happy woman singing lustily, wearing
her rainhood, eating soft-center chocolates, und ironing clothes
twice ws happy, to be candid, than if she had married Walter
And what of Walter?) He is happy too. Freed from his un-
wanted liaison with Emma, he married a girl much nearer his
own age Agnes Yucea, 72. Walter is now the proud futher
stepfuther, to be perfectly accurate-of three fine, healthy
boys from Agnes's first marriage Everett, 38; Wilhelm, 43;
and Irving, 55- and when Walter puts the boys on a lead and
tukes them for w stroll in the park on Sunday afternoon, you
may be sure there is not w dry eye in Yutah
And Dean Sigafoos? He too ix happy happy to spend long,
tiring hours in his little office, giving counsel without stint und
without complaint, doing hix bit to set the young, uncertain
feet of his charges on the path tow brighter tomorrow

March On Capitol Follows
Student Confederation Meeting
Members of the Confederated
Student Governments met last
Monday with Melville Abrams, .\s-
semblyman from the Bronx, and
Charles Henderson, Assemblyman
from Steuben, to discuss the pos-
sibility of getting the tuition bill
out of the Ways and Means Com-
mittee
\fter the meeting .\ssemblyman
Henderson visited the WSUA radio
station and was interviewed, In
reference to the tuition bill he
said, “I frankly don't think that
there is much chance of getting
any bills out of committee."*
Dischorge of Bill Unlikely
In order to discharge the bill
from the Ways and Means Com-
mittee either the committee itself
has to vote on it, or the Assembly
has to approve by majority vote a
motion to discharge the hill from
committee
The Ways and Means Committee
has a majority of Republicans on it,
and Governor Rockefeller does not
want the hill to come out of com-
mittee, It is expected that the
Committee will concur with the
Governor's wishes
The possibility of the \ssembly
voting to discharge the hill is
improbable hecause a discharge
would weaken the power of the
committees, and such a precedent
is not desirable
Mter their interview with
semblyman Henderson, lan

the Capitol with a tape recorder
to interview participants in the
protest, AFL-CIO Laundry Work-
ers were present along with two

husloads of students from Geneseo,
Brockport, and some representa-
tives from Hudson Valley, Buffalo
and Stony Brook.
Union Representatives Interviewed
The union representatives did
not state why they were against
tuition. Leet interpreted their
remarks to mean that their stand
was hased upon political alliances.
Students Demonstrate
After the majority of the students
had received instructions for the
demonstration in the Ritz Theatre,
they formed a double-file column
extending from the Capitol steps to
North Pearl Street.
Some students marched around
the statue of Sheridan; other walked
up and down the Capitol steps; some
marched around the Capitol block,
and others through the park hefore
the Capitol.
Senate Minority Leader Joseph
Zaretzki, Senator Bernstein from
Bronx, and Senator Joseph Marro
from Manhattan, and others from
the New York City area stated that
they were against tuition for city
colleges and emphasized that tui-
tion must he fought in upstate col-
leges first
Leet and Loder attempted to
enter the Assembly Chamber, A
camptain from City College told
them that the students stood along
the sides of the Chamber so that
\ssemblymen would have to walk
through the files to enter, Others
picketed at the entrance in order
to attract their attention
