The Albany State junior varsity basket
fall team ended a successful season on a
sour note Tuesday night with a 64-62 loss to
Hudson Valley Community College.

‘Albany guard Jason Hurley tied the game
at 62. with 19 seconds left on a jumper from
the top of the key. After inbounding the
ball, HVCC called timeout (with five
seconds left) to set up the eventual winning
basket.

During the timeout, Albany State head
coach Barry Cavanaugh told his team to
show man-to-man defense, and then drop
back into a 1-3-1 zone, The ball was in-
bounded and passed inside to Viking 6'6"
center Doug Stollacker (who scored a game
high 20 points) who found himself
isolated against Hurley. With the decided
height advantage, he turned around and
made a five-foot jumper and that was the
game.

“We didn't fall back in time,’ said
Cavanaugh. We should never have let that
player get the ball down so deep."”

‘Alter getting off to a slow start (trailing
6-0), the Danes grabbed their first lead,
11-10, on a pair of free throws by Joe
Rogers. The game se¢-sawed back and forth
with neither team able to take control,

weekend

Nader received a tumultuous welcome
from NYPIRG members amassed in LC 7
Saturday. Asked whether NYPIRG Is ‘ten

“Well, NYPIRG looks good. Your agenda is

bridges, but how many can deal with the

NYPIRG to uphold the principles in the suit

student fees accepted by NYPIRG are being
used for “Political and ideological

The loss of quality education, the lack of student access
and the irrationality of “paying more for less,"" because of
Goy. Mario Cuomo's proposed budget cutbacks, were the
main themes present at a three-hour legislative reception
held last night by the union of United University Profes.
sions, The reception was held as part of an on going lobby
ing effort by UUP.

‘About 75 faculty members and UUP representatives were
present from colle noluding SUNY
schools at Cobleskill, Geneseo, Cortland, and Brockport,
According to UUP Albany Chapter President Tim Reilly,
about a dozen state legislators were invited, but because of
a busy Monday schedule, only two--Senator Hugh Farley
and Assemblyman Robert D'Andrea--were able to attend,

Nuala Drescher, statewide president of the UUP, said
that the lobbying effort by the UUP addresses many pro-
lems involving the proposed budget, but was bothered by
the fact that ‘nobody has really talked of the problem of
student access, There is no sense in increasing student ad
missions and raising the price to attend,’ she said, stressing
that the middle-class will be priced out of an education.
“They are unable to get loans and cannot afford this h

Of the greatest assets of New York State," He added that
“you can not afford to let it wither on the vine."

Most faculty members mentioned the fact that because of
repeated cutbacks since the Carey administration, most of
the ‘fat’” in SUNY has already been cut out, They were
sturbed in that any further cuts will be biting into the

UUP Treasurer and Geneseo Professor Tom Matthews
cited a few examples, saying, “the music department at
Cortland is being cut from a faculty of nine to a faculty of
three, and losing major status, At Genesco the drama
department is losing their costume designer, This will not
exactly result in quality productions," he added, Matthews
said he felt that there was no rationale behind the proposed
budget cuts, ‘It is a political maneuver, in order to have &

Geerken said, he is not keeping the promises he made to the
Unions, and “his proposals of one year would do what it
took Carey eight years to do,"” He added that Cuomo's
proposals would, “take away the last opportunity for

that involved lay-offs and that would cost money,

Both Farley and D'Andrea said they were impressed with
the student rally of a week ago, ‘It was impressive, Welle
organized, and definitely made an impact," said Farley,

"The cost of food is our biggest single expense, We ex-
pect it (0 go up about $ percent, We're trying (o predict for
fiscal year June 1984," Zahm said,

According to Zahm, the figures are based on “the best
information available’ from the food industry, govern-
ment figures, and UAS experience,

The price of utilities was also a major factor in proposing
the hikes, Zahm said.

“We never paid utilities until last year. This year there
Was a 61 percent increase in utility rates, In the quad kit-
chens it will amount to almost a quarter million dollars.
That's an expense we didn’t have {wo years ago,"" he said.

UAS Board of Directors President Joe Ranni explained
that last year was the first time the NYS Audit and Control
Department demanded UAS pay utilities. In previous years
said Ranni, the State subsidized the costs. Last year UAS
had to pay $175,000 in utility bills, and next year utility
Cosi are expected 10 be $300,000 Rani said,

Zahm also said the board increase was necessary because
he does not expect an increase in sales next year, “There
will be no appreciably greater number of students in the
dormitories next year. The number of off-campus students

buying dorm contracts has been constant the last couple of
years," he said,

For the academic year 1983-84, Zahm estimated that of
the 6,700 students buying board contracts, eighty percent
buy the three meal or two meal (lunch/dinner) plan, and
that this percentage has remained constant for the past 10
years,

However, Zahm pointed out that the increase will also
cover the 1982-83 school year, since there was no increase
last year.

“We're looking at two years without an increase, We
have (0 cover this year and next. We postponed this year’s
increase until next year. It boils down to 2% percent per
year for two years," he said,

Ranni pointed out that Albany has the cheapest meal
plan cost among state universities and colleges. While a 20
meals per week meal plan costs $920 in Albany for the year,
it costs $1,310 in Farmingdale, $1,290 in Binghamton,
$1,288 in Stonybrook and $1,000 in Brockport.

UAS is a private, non-profit corporation that receives no
state aid, and has a five year contract with the state to pro-
vide auxitliary services, Zahm said,

Ranni estimated UAS earned $$,7 million in revenue
from campus meal plans.

Students wait
night and day
to obtain Joe

Jackson seats

By Caryn Miske

The line in the Campus Center started for-
ming at about 6 p.m, last Tueday, 16 hours
before tickets to the UCB/WCDB Joe
Jackson concert were schediled to go on
sale, By Wednesday night, 1,600 tickets to
the March 21 performance at Albany's
Palace Theater had been purchased,

Despite the fact that tickets were made
available only 10 SUNYA students for the
first two days of their release, numerous
students have complained about the distribu:
tion of tickets for the immensely popular
concert. According to Karen Fisher of UCBs
ticket committee, this measure was imposed
specifically to ensure that SUNYA students
would haye the opportunity to buy tickets
(for $10 with a tax card) before they went on
sale to the general public for $12,50.

At midnight Tuesday, as the Campus
Center shut down, a list was started to ac-
count for all students present. These students
had (0 show up every hour on the hour for at-
tendance in order (0 keep their names on the
list. This method according to Fisher was us-
ed fo guarantee that only those students who
really sacrificed and truly wanted to attend
the concert got the best tickets.

Although some students returned to their
rooms, Fisher reported that many chose to
camp out in and around the lecture center
area, Rick Mailaender, a student who opted

US involvement
in South Korea
could initiate
a nuclear war

_ By Laura Nuss
TAPP WRITER

US involvement in Korea is escalating the
possibility of a nuclear war, according to
New Korea Policy Commitice member David
Easter,

Speaking before a small, attentive au-
dience Thursday in the Humanities Lounge,
Easter described US military and economic
involvement in South Korea and the Implica-
tions of nuclear proliferation,

Easter recalled that on March 30, 1982,
Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger an:
nounced that ** the US nuclear umbrella will

“In the past," Easter sald, “The US has
Justified the bulldup of a nuclear arsenal as a
Vital deterrent against a similarly armed op-
ponent, However, since North Korea has no
nuclear weapons, nuclear deterrence is not an
issue,"” Thus, Easter maintained, the US
could remove its nuclear weapons from
South Korea without facing nuclear
blackmail by the North,

Easter advocates an end (o US support and
encouragement for South Korea's nuclear
power program which, he sald, could
ultimately be sed to produce nuclear
weapons, He also urged that South Korea
should enter diplomatic negotiations with
North Korea and other ‘relevant parties!”
with the intention of creating a nuclear-free
zone in Northeast Asia,

According to Easter, because there was no
peice treaty signed in Korea after the Korean
War, armed battles still occur regularly along
the demilitarized zone where one million
hostile troops face each other, With these
perpetual conflicts in Korea, he sald, a small
conflict could escalate Into a nuclea

catastrophe.
Easter emphasized the enormity of US |

volvement in the profiferation of nuclear

power plants and nuclear weapons by citing

government digencies and private corpora
tions such as General Elestrie and
Westinghouse which have been professing

the vital importance of such advanced
technology in South Korea.

The Korean government, unable to meet
the tremendous expense for these plants, is

Following the lecture, seve

calling for a mandatory retirement. After
1977's Slowhand, Clapton began a series
of tired, uninspired records that had even
his most devout followers shaking their
heads. He didn't seem to care about his
work and everyone knew it, His last tour
was a nightmare for him, especially

awhile), Many criticized him for being no

Gail Merrell

Where Nick and Paul differ is that Nick
never gets sappy. He's careful to add a
touch of sarcasm and to up the tempo
everytime his pop bubbles begin to get airy
enough to burst. And Nick's greatest ad:
vantage over Paul is that his wife, Carlene
Carter, knows how to sing. When Nick and
Carlene make love, they don't need Kodak
to help them to remember the times of their
lives

Part of the reason this album is so great is
that Nick is no longer walking around with
a chip on his shoulder. On last year's Nick
the Knife he put so much effort into "Stick
It Where the Sun Don't Shine” that he
neglected the rest of the album. Now that
he’s gotten over his post-Rockpile break-up
blues, he’s back to recording infectious pop
music. His lyrics are also strictly pop; every

member Paul Carack turns in his finest per
formance, playing soulful keyboards as ex
pertly as Garth Hudson of The Band on a
song that easily could have been penned
by NRBQ or Little Feat, In the same upbeat
spirit is "Chicken and Feathers”. a song
that hooks you with its Foundations-iype
chorus,

The pace quickens on “We Want
Action”, in which Nick's got the whole
world calling out for sex, "Wish You Were
Here" and "Raging Eyes” are also fast pac

something Bruce Springsteen might have
written for Dave Edmunds, complete with
honky-tonk pianos:

Even some of the album's filler material
Is notable, as Nick uses those songs as a
testing ground for a variety of styles

‘Tanque-rae” is as stupid and as much fun
as any Sha-Na-Na song and “Cool Reac
tion’ is saved by putting some Calypso into
the beat, On another note “Mess Around
With Love" Is a rip-off since it’s the same
tune as Rockpile’s “When 1 Write the
Book."Next, Nick goes over to the Burt
Bacharach camp of adult love songs with

of sclimaltz. His other beautiful love song is
a 305-type, Bing Crosby disaster called

The reason Clapton was so heavily
criticized for his most recent works was that
his usual mellow, understated style became
comatose. He sounded exhausted instead
of blue. This record is much more
energetic; yet he still manages to maintain

also concertmaster). In 1973 Borok em:
migrated to Israel where he received ac

subsequent American poularity began in
1975, when he made his unforgettable
solo debut at the Tanglewood Festival.

Sandburg and Whitman. Piston Is noted
for his two Pulitzer Prize winning Third and

his Jconoclastic expressions.

Following this fine demonstration of

somewhat less violent form, it’s alive and well and
living in Albany,

An anomyous voice threatened the lives of hun-
dreds of people in the Campus Center Saturday night
= most of them at a party celebrating NYPIRG's
tenth-anniversary annual conference, The woman
called four times, claiming that a bomb in the Cam-
pus Center would explode during the party, The
building was evacuated and closed carly,

There was no doubt who the threat was directed
against. The woman said that the action was taken
because of NYPIRG’s presence in the Campus
Center. No one has claimed reponsibility for the
calls, however,

T errorism is not as far away as some peasant

funding status on State University campuses, and
now it looks like NYPIRG functions are being
disrupted with bomb threats. :

Why is all this rightist garbage being directed at

issues such as disarmamient, women’s safety, voting

Selective blindness

This country's press all too easily ignores many atrocities
in this world, while focusing on others all too much, This
kind of selective blindness ends up tainting our foreign
policy and reflecting unfavorably on us years later,

An example of this blindness Is our focus on the
Lebanese Massacre, While its atrocious and terrible, the
U,S., as well as the world, short of reporting it, doesn't br-

i the same weight down on the more terrible and more
Jethal Assam killings, which compared 1,300 to the 300
dead in Lebanon, But because they could bring pressure on
Israel (which, it can not be denied, had no direct respons
sibility) and not India, the world, as well as the U.S, press
lets it go, The U.S. press will pick up on so many dead since
Nicaragiia went Marxist, but ignores the greater number

because they kill less people per day than before, although
conditions are far less than healthy, because we fear offen-
ding them, Is this a normal, healthy way to conduct policy?

Since World War 11 this country feels a need to combat
communism, to catch it wherever it may stick its dangerous
heck out, In this way we have come to support right-wing
dictatorships in Third World nations not because they are
good and democratic but because they are nof communist,
Is this a worthy aspect to make friendship, because they are
not one thing, although their policies are anything but
parallel to ours? Does politics have to lead to anything but

Cultural antagonism

To the Editor:

1 was infurlated by the poster put up by the Arab Student
Association at Thursday's World Week Ethnic Block Par-
ty, I would like to make some very simple suggestions as to
how to regulate displays in the future.

I think Dr, Paul Ward (one of the World Week coor-
dinators) missed the boat when he said that the displays
can't be regulated because ‘what might be culture {0 you
might be political to someone else,"’ The line in regulating
the displays should not be drawn between politics and
culture, but should be drawn between accentuating the
positive parts of your nation (which Dr, Ward claimed was
the underlyng objective of World Week) and blatantly at-
tacking or degrading another culture or religion, The
bloodied Jewish star and the picture of Begin in the context
of that poster could not be taken in any other way than as
attacks on Israel and Jews, This propaganda has no place
in World Week and in no Way accentuates any positive
parts of any nation.

The question of politics or culture is not what concerns
me here, it is the question of antagonism toward another
culture that'is the issue. Even if it is part of their culture,
World Week was not the proper place to display it, What if
quotes such as “Death to Jews'’ or “Death to America’
were part of their culture, should these be displayed at
World Week? Why don't we just have an American flag
buirned at the next World Week to really give students a fee!
Of the culture of some Arab countries.

In my mind Dr, Ward should reconsider his claimed in-
ability {0 regulate displays and in next year’s Ethnic Block
Party make sure that there are no displays that are violently
antagonistic towards any cultures,

Beating the rap

To the Editor

Tuition increases affect all of us, However, tuition and
dorm increases have an effect in areas many of us rarely
consider. Increases in costs for students may determine or
shape conditions in cities in which colleges and universities
are located, It is not far-fetched to state that increases in
dorm rates may translate into increases in rents in student
neighborhoods, If students are forced to pay high dorm
rates, they will be forced to pay higher rents due to new
market conditions, When people learn to expect (0 pay
more money for a good pr service, those supplying it are
bound to charge as much as the market will stand.

It is well-known that SUNYA does not provide enough
on-campus housing for its students, Therefore, almost one
third of students must reside off-campus by either necessity
oF choice, These students, already caught in a 1.7 percent
vacancy rate squeeze in the city of Albany, will be further
trapped by a combination of high dorm rates and over
enrollment, These factors are compounded by the clear
that when cuts are made, bus service is a likely target. And
when bus service is cut back, either in schedule or routes,
students will cling geographically to the bustin for dear
life. The student ghetto is crowded enough already, but it
may become more so before a solution is found, Cutbacks
may create conditions in which any landlord worth his/her
salt will skyrocket rents in the ‘ghetto’ while providing
less service and renting smaller spaces, legally or illegaly

(Why fewer services? Because we allow them to get away
with ic by remaining silent. The burden of enforcing the law
falls upon the tenant. City agencies do not have the person
nel necessary to perform routine inspections on every
building, Inspections will, however, be performed upon re
quest, So, no request, no inspection and no enforcement

Rent increases not only affect students, but: our
neighbors as well. They have to pay rent, too, No one en-
joys being cornered into paying more, Overcrowding and
lack of parking also affect our neighbors, These problems
are bound to intensify if bus service is cut back.

So how do we beat this rap? There is a network of
neighborhood associations in this city that we can par-
ticipate in. (A convention of these associations was held
this past Saturday, but few students were there, This is un-

To the Edito

This Thursday evening the University Speakers Forum
Will present the Liddy-Leary debate, Though the persons.
who comprise this group most probably had nothing except
noble intentions when they contracted to have this spectacle
appear here on campus, I feel there is something truly

Wrong if) our university's sponsoring the event

As we all remember, Gi, Gordon Liddy was one Of the in
sidious Nixon staffers responsible for the unauthorized en
range into the Democratic National Headquarters back in
1972 and the attempts to conceal it from the public that
followed.

When Mr. Liddy spoke on campus last year, he devoted
a considerable portion of time explaining the events that
ultimately culminated in the break-in into the Watergate, as
well as offering his own retrospective analysis of the effect
it had on government and the American people, His subse
quent encounter with the justice system, on this occasion as
the defendant (earlier in his career Liddy had held a high
position with the Putnam County D.A,'s office), and the
time he spent incarcerated in various federal penitentaries
Were subjects also discussed at length. Likewise was his
readiness (0 volunteer for the assignment of assassinating
columnist Jack Andrson, with Liddy steadfast in his claim
that it would haye been’a justifiable act

AL first 1 greatly objected to last year's appearance by
Mr, Liddy. A scoundrel such as himself had no right earn
ing money as a direct result of his criminal infractions
Many people 1 spoke with also expressed thelr indignation
with the fact that a convicted felon, especially one so in
imately associated with one of our nations most
disgraceful episodes, actually was being lionized and mak
ing his livelihood from it

To illustrate this conviction, given Benedict Arnold and
his place in history, would you now resent paying a fee to
hear him tell of his affiliation with the British? Nor would
most people turn a deaf ear on the words of Lee Harvey
Oswald or John Wilkes Booth, Not because we admire
these men as individuals, but rather due to their par
{icipatiion in aets of immense historical significance, Tak
ing this into consideration, suddenly Mr, Liddy's first
speaking engagements didn’t seem that unacceptable,

However, sich is not the case this Thursday evening
When Mr, Liddy approaches the rostrum to debate Mr

Leary he will not be up there fo tell the atidience about his
involvement in Watergate, In fact, itis highly unlikely that
his arguments in any way will contain specific references to
Watergate, except perhaps on a philosophical level, And it
is on the basis of this that I dispute the worthiness of Mr,
Liddy’s speaking here whereas at approximately this time
last year 1 was still in the midst of defending it, What it all
boils to is that last year there was possibly something to be
learned from what Mr, Liddy had to say. This time,
however, let me warn you how you may unwittingly be ex:
ploited,

For roughly one year now, Mr, Liddy and Mr, Leary
have periodically been staging these debates for paying au
diences, Mr. Liddy thus returns here not as someone talk
ing about history but instead someone who made history
and is now simply talking, Evider ly there is a monumen+
{al difference, All those people who fork out money to see
him speak are doing 50 (0 see him, To see G, Gordon Lid-
dy, celebrated Watergate conspirator, Whatever he may say
really has no influence on one's decision to attend,

This can easily be demonstrated, To my knowledge,
debate is a revered form of argumentation. Generally,
when any legitimate debate Is held the topic is a prime fac:
tor in generating interest and also is of great importance to
the debate, Yet in the case of this debate, not even the
slightest hint has been given as to what tople will be

that it really isn't much of a debate and really doesn't mat
ter. You're going only to see them and anything else is ex:
ra,

Furthermore, be aware that as advertised this will be the

Leary and Mr, Liddy are abiding by this code, They've

this is that while working at the D.A,'s office in Putnam

A question of culture

To the Editor:
The World Week poster incident raises some critical
issues about American and Arab ways of life, The flist issuie
pertains to freedom of speech, an intrinsic part of the
American way of life, There are times when freedom of
speech is stretectied to the limits, as it way with the posters
‘and political propaganda distributed at the Arab Student
Association's table, Democratic societies cannot atford 10
forfeit tis right (o its citizens, and even extends the right to

sionist Zionist Alternative (RZA) did not have to take this
freedom away by taking down the Arab Student Associa
tion's poster

The second critical issue are the comments in the ASP by
Dr. Paul Ward and Arab Student Association member
Mohammed Kayed regarding the incident, Both accept the
premise that a poster whose foreground depicts a country’s
chief executive symbol (which is also the
symbl of a major world religion) dripping blood on the
backdrop of dead bodies is culture, If this is indeed part of
the culture which the Arab Student Association is represen
{ative of, as unattached observers we should! take a few
steps backwards and analyze this. 1f violent propaganda
such as this is considered part of Arab culture (specifically
displayed at the table to reflect this) it is no wonder that
young Arabs and Palestinians grow up to raid a children’s
hursery on Kibbutz Misgau AM in northern Gatilee, Israel,
or participate in other terrorist acts, It is also no wonder
that Israel must react to this culture through less than
peacefull means,

If this is part of Arab culture, the Arab students on cam
pus should start to reexamine thelr own beliefs as to who
the aggressors are in Lebanon and other areas of the Middle
East, If it is not, they should start to reexamine the
statements they make in the ASP,

Pan-Africanism seeks worldwide black unity

By Alleen Brown

For the millions of African
peoples scattered about the earth,
Pan-Africanism — the unity of
blacks with Africa-may be a way
home, according to Peter Molotsi,
an assistant professor of history and
urban studies at Fordham Universi-
ty, in his lecture here Saturday,

Speaking before a predominantly
black audience, Molotsi told the
crowd of approximately forty peo-

Student health

aware of thelr bodies and health
because of publicity, They wonder
about the food and water.’”

Hood cited the recent furor over
Dioxins and PCB's as two instances
that haye made people more con-
scious of? what they injest.
However, Hood stated she had
noticed no significant changes in il-
Iness trends as a result of the rising
Interest in fitness,

Hood has also noticed an ins
crease in the incidence of Anorexia
Nervosa, an obsessive urge to diet,
and Bulemia, the habit of inducing
vomiting after eating,

“The problems have shown up in
the last few years. I'm sure we had
itin the past, but it must have been
so rare that it didn't appear to be a
problem, It's extremely hard to
treat beause they never admit they
have a problem, They kid
themselves," Hood said,

Hood fowarded her opinion of
the health movement, saying
think the American people in
general are extremists, 1 think
they'll all pay the penalty or-
thapedically. We don’t know all
there is to know. Until we do, the
best route is all things in modera-
tion."

Hood did agree that students
would feel better if they get out and
exercis xercise
is better than none, However, Hood

ast walking, in my opinion,
reise than jogs!

However, Hood was not impress:
ed by the fitness craze, "The same
kids who are concerned with
halural foods are also taking LSD
and alcohol. 1 find it hard to take
that seriously, Obviously there are
people raised on junk food, and
that’s not right. A well rounded di
Is important, but I can't get too ex-
cited over a fad.!"

People are more body con
seious,”" she said, ‘but whether
they are more health conscious;
that’s different.”

Delemater commented on stu:
dent motivations for fitness: ‘They

“It’s a combination of getting rid
of tenseness and increasing
energy,"’Barber said. “People come
to work out their frustrations,

Barber said that most who begin

ple that the history and significance
of Pan-Africanism was '‘a quest for
identity and homeland by the
dispersed African peoples who were
in the Carribean and in North and
South America,”

They knew they were Africans,
said Molotsi, and they desired to
Teturn home — not necessarily
physically but spiritually, “This,”
he said, “is generally referred to as
the great religious or spiritual
revival."

According to Moloisi, Pan-
Africanism was founded by a man
named Henry Sylvester Williams, a
native of Trinadad who was
educated in London around the
turn of the century, Williams? Pan-

nice Organization,

, stood for securing

for Africans around the world true

civil and political rights!” as well as

“commemorating the conditions of

our brothers on the continent of

Africa, encouraging our people in

education, industry and enterprise,

and also recognizing the high value
of African sovereignty,"”

Among the concepts that Pan:
Africanism. siresses, said Molotsi,
are cultural unity; the political
dependence of Africa, including the
desire to modernize Africa on the
basis of equality of rights; and the
opposition of racial discrimination.

Pan-Africanism, he stressed, is a
universal phenomenon that takes
different forms according to time,
place and historical settings.

The Pan Africanists, said
Molotosi, ‘are arrogant due to

ir deep conviction that they are
doing the right thing--they are pick-
ing up the fallen, they are pro-
moting the race." This, he said,
formed the basis of his thesis. He
believes that ‘*Pan-Africanism was,

African in nature so it will foster an
Understanding of the African
history, culture, and society." The
universities especially must focus on.
kindling national interest in the.
youth. They must, he said, ‘feel the
pulse of the African revolution,”
The second dimension of Pat
Africanism, continued Molotsi, is.
the theological one. African
religion must haye the Christian,
elements, he said, but also be ‘'dif-

Pan-Africanism is “a quest for the
identity and homeland by the
dispersed African peoples who were
in the Carribean and in North and

South America,”

is and Will continue to be relevant
because there is nothing better up to
now in black thought," Moiotsi's
fesearch and thesis will be printed in
the Black Studies Journal in the
near futur

Pan-Africanism, continued
Moloisi, has several dimensions
The first of these is that of educa-
tion. Education is *'seen as a tool of
advancement for black people,'" ac
cording to Moloisi, It Is a decisive
influence, and must be ‘essentially

ferent and unique due to our
cultural, geographical, and social
background. The theologist
sees “Afr ly as the
¥y of spiritual souls
The final dimension
Molotsi discussed was the eco!
1 he sald, included the
to moder-
sof the
African continent,"’ The key to
economic success in several regions
of Africa is ‘combining the

which

resources, raw materials, and
energy which need only to be
harnessed to release Africa from in-
ternational dependence,

Molotsi stressed the importance
of eliminating the conception of
Africans described on ‘animal!’
levels, Africans must be allowed to
revive their culture, he seid, for
there is "dignity and glory in their
history and cultural affairs." The
Africans, Molotsi pressed, must
Propel, promote, and advance their
race, One goal of Pan Africanism is
African sovereignty, Once this Is at-
tained, said Molotsi, there must be
& freely elected central council to
assure that all Africans will have the
fundamental rights that all humans
deserve, The political parties will
“be committed (0 the unity of a
African states, the dig
African people and must cut Ae
all sectional ties,"”

The essential nature of Pan
Africanism, said Molotsi, is ex-
pressed by the beliefs of a great
black leader, Frederick Douglass:
“In matters of race, | recognize no
geographical boundaries and no na-
tional limitations, 1 simply
recognize that a black man
everywhere is entitled to human
rights,"

Molotsi's tak was sponsored by
the African Students Association,

Albany indoor tracksters compete in Cortland

By Tom Kacandes
STATE WRITER

The Albany State men’s indoor track
team placed third at the SUNYACS held at
Cortland last Saturday. Fredonia State
dominated its SUNY competition scoring
226 points to host Cortland's 132 poinis
and Albany's 71 points, Fredonia swept
several events and set three fleldhouse
records in the course of its impressive win

The Danes outscored Buffalo, Bingham-
ton, Brockport and Buffalo State College,
which placed fourth, The Danes’ finish was
also indicative of the team's difficulty in
coming up with the big points in important
meets,

“We are not a team of superstars," said
head coach Bob Munsey,"'but | am much
more pleased then displeased with our per
formance." The Danes showed improve-
ment in many areas while several in:
dividuals had outstanding performances,

Sophomore Mare Mercurio who broke
his own school record for the fourth time
this season in the 35 -pound weight throw
Mercurio {00k second place in the ever
With a toss of 14.85 meters, Junior Bill
Nason had some trouble with his throwing
form Saturday, but still took fifth in the
weight throw and fourth in the shot put

The Danes went on to score in. the
1500-meter run where captain Nick Sullivan
took fifth place with a time of 4:10.3 and
sophomore Chris Callacei ran 4:13.8 for
sixth place,

Callacel teamed up with Winston
Johnson, Scolt Sachs and Jim Erwin for se
cond place in the Distance Medley relay

Erwin's 1600-meter anchor leg time of 4:25
Was a personal best and the team's time of
10:44,4 was a season’s best mark

Bomb threats

“Front Pago
officers, Gifford decided to evacuate the
buildin

“It seemed a higher probability that it way
more serious bomb threat than the first
three, The time the bomb would go off
(12:30) was specified," said Gifford, ‘It's
far better to be cautious about the safety and
Welfare of people than make a wrong deci
sion and have people hurt.””

Officer Danie! Lessard said, “Unfortunat
ly, any emergency situation which we receive
for example, a bomb threat or a fire alarm
We must treat as an actual emergency, even
though the probability does exist that itis not
an actual emergency situation."

Following a second thorough search at
12:30 a.m., police began permitting people to
enter the Campus Center, said Doellefeld. By

he Rathskellar was closed, and the
event was scheduled to end at 1:30,
Patroon Room Chef Aldo DiVirgillo added
that the Mousetrap was closed that evening

Doellefeld explained that all the people in
Volved in the incident were very cooperative
“Because of safety,” he said, “they did what
they had to do."

“| have no doubt in my mind that this
came from an outside source,’ said
Greenberg. "No one in NYPIRG would do
such an outrageous thing." She added that
“there certainly are groups that wouldn't
hesitate in calling themselves NYPIRG adver
saries. 1 can't be certain that they're behind
this," she said, adding, 1 thought o
adversaries were far more professional.”

NYPIRG member Kathleen Kargoll par
ticipated on the committee that organized the
conference, It was unfortunate that our
party was shut down and ruined and
disrupted,"” she said, adding that “people
came from all over the state of New York."
Kargoll added that NYPIRG members work:
ed and participated in workshops all day
Saturday. “The party was an opportunity (0
relax and socialize.””

After the evacuation, Polli said,

300 students gathered in front of the si
fountain and refused to leave the front of the
building. They were highly intoxicated. We
Used P.A, systems from the police car 10 try
to get them {0 disperse, but it was to no
avail,"

Kargoll, claiming to have been near the
fountain at that time, insists that ‘no
megaphones were used, We, the group, did
move from one side of the fountain to the
other one, closer to the stairs leading to the
lecture centers."”

In another case of bad seeding, Dane

Sophomore Mike Riggins ran a yery
quick time of $1.9 seconds in the 400-meter
dash, Riggins won his heat and placed
fourth overall, “I wasn't placed in the fast
heat, so 1 had to run by myself and that
slows you down," Riggins said,

Albany runners were consistently placed
in slow heats because the other team's
coaches overrated their runner's seed times
in order to get theif men in the fast heat.
The tactic is common and {t allows a run-
net who isn't a winner (0 get pulled along
by faster runners. ‘Sure, it hurt us,"*said
Munsey, ‘but I don't go for that sort of
thing and the other coaches know it,”

The most obvious victim of this seeding
problem was Dane captain Erie Newton
Who broke the school record he set last
week in the $00-meter dash running all by
himself in a slow heat. Newton's time of
1:06.8 was two seconds faster than othe
runners seeded ahead of him, His solo per~
formance earned Newton third place
overall, Freshman Tony Rizzo ran a per-
sonal best 1:08.8 for seventh place and
qualified for the Stare championships at the
same time,

Freshman Bruce Van Tassel set a per
sonal best in the $S-meter high hurdles, His
time of 7,8 seconds carned third place
honors in a very fast field of hurdlers,

Nursing the hip injury that has kept the
former SUNY hurdle champ off the
hurdles, Mitchell Harvard ran a gutsy’ Jean:

(AP) A federal judge yesterday blocked a law

U.S, District Judge Donald D. Alsop

challenging a federal law forcing male
students applying for tuition ald to disclose if
they registered for the draft

The suit challenged the law signed by

President Reagan last Sept. 8. It required
male students applying for (uiton help to
disclose whether they had registered for the
draft, and prohibited them from receiving
any federal assistance unless they had done

“It takes no great stretch of the imagina-
