Women ‘take back the night’
in march through Albany
__ By Sheilah R, Sable
Women walked in safety in some of the most shadowy
areas in Albany Saturday night, when more than 400 joined
to "take back the night."
The rally began at 7 p.m. on the Capitol steps and was
followed by a march from the steps, west on State Strect,
through Washington Park, and then back toward the Cap-
itol.
Men were asked {0 watch the children, hand out pam
philets, and sell t-shirts. They cooperated and respected the
Women's requests to march alone,
As women marched through the streets of Albany, they
shouted "Women Unite, Take Back the Night," "No more
No more violence," “Gay, Straight, Black and
All women Take Back the Night,”
Many of the women were disappointed thit they could
Hot march in the streets and that they were confined to the
sidewalks. Albany resident Karen Barclay wondered, “If all
the law enforcement agencies are supposed 10 be supporting
Us, then why haven't the police roped off the streets for us
to march?” One officer explained, You ladies are walki
the wrong way on a one way street and that made {t im:
possible for the police to properly escort the march through
the streets,!”
AL the close of the march, on the Capitol steps, there was
4 participatory self-defense demonstration, Tips for walk
ing safely at night were suggested; try not to walk alone, try
to walk in well lit areas, and if someone is following you
look for an unlocked car or go into the first public
Opening the rally, Debra Dettor, a member of the
Albany County Rape Crisis Center, said, We are here to
Jet people know that rape exists and that we want it stop:

ing the streets alone at night,"?
Carla DiGirolomo, Director of the N.Y. State Commis-
sion on Domestic Violence, informed the crowd of some
figures and statistics about rape, ‘Forty thousand women
will be victims of rape by their husbands and lovers this
year alone, but nothing will be done about it lawfully.
because according to the court system there is no such crime
as marital rape,”* said DiGirolomo, “Children are the
highest risk. Forty-two percent of the females raped or
assaulted each year are between (wo and fourteen years
old," she added. DiGirolomo's point was that if the courts
and legislators don't start to treat rape as a more serious
problem then women will be victims of rape and victims of
unfair court proceedings, as well.
“The patriarchy must be ended,"’ said DiGirolomo, who
is a victim of sexual assault and battering by her husband,
Saratoga Springs Attorney Nancy Bunting concentrated
her speech on the idea that only community groups could
help to change the ways in which the issues are viewed in the
court systems. ““People can apply pressure to change the:
views on rape, demand laws and make sure they are
enacted, Legislators and judges must realize what goes on
and change the system so that women are treated fairly and
rapists get what they deserye,"” asserted Bunt
Pat Donovan, a state trooper and a former first ine
vestigator for the Albany County District Attorney sex of-
fense unit, informed the crowd of a program set up in
January of 1978. Sol Greenberg of Albany County received
funding, she explained, for prosecution of rapists and pro-
grams for the rape victims, Women who are raped can be
treated by professional help as soon as they enter the
hospital. Victims will be tended to by doctors and
psychologists. They have also been allevia

be a riot or violence, "I had no idea you were coming, My
boss never said a word so I just couldn't let you in without
confirmation from my boss," the caretaker explained, The
situation was worked out and the women continued to
march back to the Capitol steps
Poot Orie Thyla read some of her work twice during the
rally, First she recited "The Voice of the Owl Rises Within
Me," which revealed the injurious psychological effects
that sexual assault has on women, The second, '*Sngil Ex
plains Herself,"” was a view on the degradation of women
in all fields
Reverend Minnie Burns of the Saratoga Universal Bap:
tist Temple referred (0 the Bible where it says that a rapist
should be stoned to death, She explained that she was not
advocating death for all rapists, just a more serious tres
ment of rapists, “Rapists should get what they deserve
she sald, "If officials would put the rapist away and give
him what he deserves, we would have peace and women
could walk’ Iai! and’do what they are supposed to do; be
soft, be sweet, be caring, be fruliful and multiply,’* Burns
contended
After the march, a song entitled Fight Back, written by
Holly Near, was performed by Terri Roben. This was an
action that also drew cheers and applause from the remain
ing crowd
Albany County Rape Crisis Center Director, Judith Con
do made a few points in her closing statements. "Violence

not changed, along with the constant degradation of

County Executive James Coyne, making Oct, 1218 the
iraditional Rape Prevention Weck, Condo proudly said,
‘sAlbany can now be recognized as the leader, from its ac
tion past and present adicating rape and sexual
violenice against women,'?
The Albany Rape Crisis Center and Rape Crisis Cente
in the surrounding areas hope actions such as "Take Back
the Night,"” will help to change the way women are viewed
in society, educate society about rape and its effects, in-
fluence politicians to recognize the problems and take ac
tions to correct them, and above all eradicate rape.
A Truth Walkathon on Saturday, Oct. 29 at 7 a.m, is
another event slated to make violence against women
more discernable problem among society, and the judici
system.

Senate bill enlarges body to handle cheaters
By Jane Anderson
The Senate Committee on Student Con
duct was enlarged by the University Senate at
their first meeting, according to senate of-
ficials,
The senate bill states that “membership of
the Committee on Student Conduct for
1983-84 will consist of ten teaching faculty
members, six students and three non-
teaching faculty members." These will form
4 pool from which five faculty members, four
of whom must be teaching faculty, and two
students will be chosen to hear each case,
The expanded committee is designed to
hear more than one case at a time, according
to Assistant Dean for Student Affairs Alice
Corbin, The previous committee, she ex-
plained, could only hear one case at a tim:
The committee handles cases involving
cademic and other forms of dishonesty, It
also reviews and recommends policies, pro-
cedures and regulations involving student
conduct,
“The representation of students and facul-
ly on the commitice has not changed," said
Corbin, "What the bill does is explain more
clearly how many faculty members and
students will be involved with the committee,
The recommendations for the revisions in
the Committee on Student Conduct were
made by the Task Force on Student Ethics
and Cheating, which was formed by Univer
sity Senate to meet over the summer-to
urvey the problems that students and
faculty have with cheating," said task force
chair Patricia Rogers
Professor Ronald Bosco, chairman of the
University Senate and organizer of the task
foree, said that cheating has been
on campus for five years." He added that
has become increaingly evident that there is a
problem with cheating,”*
Bosco sald that he was very concerned
about due process involving students who
cheat, He noted that this bill will ‘help
guarantee due process" and will clarify the
issues" for students who get caught cheating
fan issue
and must go through the judicial process,
“The role of the committee has not been
changed,” explained Rogers, ‘but we did in=
clude more teaching faculty in it, because of
4 concern that teaching facully were not be
ing included enough, Student representation
has always been, and always will be" part of
the committee hearing process,
A student is referred to the Committee on
Stuident Conduct only when the problem is
Hot resolved by internal department
Brievance policies, The case is then brought
to Student Affairs, where Corbin selects a
Broup from the pool of committee members
to hear the case, Appeals are possible after a
final declaration has been made on the case,
In each of the previous two years, the com-
mittee has handled approximately 15-20 cases
Of academic dishonesty and about 30 cases
involving forgery, said Corbin. Plagiarism
and cheating on tests are the {wo major types
Of academic dishonesty, she added, Forgery
includes the changing of grades and signing
the professor's name on a drop card
The Task Force on Student Ethics and
Cheating was created to form modifications
for the commiltee, according 10 Rogers. The
ask force also discussed "methods of stu-
dent dishonesty, previously unknown, that
have been observed here," sald Rogers, "We
studied the behavior of the campus as. a
whole, where what happens and what can be
done about it,"" he noted
Rogers maintained that “it has not become
evident that one schoo! has more cheating
than others
“There are always people who will cheat,'*
she continued, but on this campus, “students

SUN YA students recount adventures overseas

abroad every year, according to the
program's director, Dr. Alex M, Shane
“We have 17 foreign study programs in 27
cities — mostly at universities and institutes
=- around the world, Our programs are con-
tinually growing and expanding," Shane
said
The programs include studying in China,
Denmark, Germany, England, France, Spain
and Israel. Some of the programs require
proficiency in a language, but not all, The
Programs in Denmark, Israel, Japan, the
Netherlands, Singapore, and England do not
require any foreign language study,
“There is a myth that students have to
have a language in order to travel abroad,
Also they think it’s too expensive,"’ said
nnelore Passonno, Assistant to the Direc
tor of the International Studies Program:
According to Passonno, these two factors
keep many students from investigating the
possibility of studying abroad.
Shane agrees. ‘It is not generally known
that a student docs not always have to
specialize in a given language, The concept is
much broader, The main thrust is to build on
what the student has learned here, We want
them to have a bros s

In general the cost should be about the
same price as a semester living here on cam:

transportation costs, but in practice some
programs are much less than staying here for
a semester,"” Shane said

A Show To Be
Remembered
Ichael Stripe does not present
himself as the archetypical Image of
today’s rock ‘n' roll star. The
slender lead singer of R.E.M, swaggered on
stage last Wednesday night at the Skyway in
Scotia clad in tattered drawstring khaki
pants, black slippers, a torn plaid shirt and a
ratty T-shirt with “coo!” spelled backwards
on the back. This was definitely appropriate,
considering Stripe’s and the rest of R.E.M.'s
obvious distaste and abhorrence for “irendy’
music and the record industry's insistence on
placing every band into a category.
Jonas Nachsin
Alll seriousness aside, however, REM
proved to be an adventurous and fun-loving
band at the Skyway, which is a large bowling
alley club (the paneled wood floors
and lane arrows really enhance the club at
mosphere). After an hour-long free beer
special and a solid warm-up performance
from R.E.M. producer Mitch Easter's new
band, Let's Active, R.E.M, took the stage ot
about 11:30
They opened the set with "Moral Kiosk,""a
powerful number from theie fist LP Murmur
It's very hard to explain R,E.M, performing
live, but suffice it to say that they just explode
on stage. When they first caught the public's
attention with the release of “Ri Free
Europe” and the subsequent EP Chronic
Town, critics noted that R.E.M.'s musle was
great, but to see them live was a different ex:
perience altogether. The band definitely pro:
ved this on "Moral Kiosk,” and it gave the
audience a preview of what was in store for
the rest of the night, Mitch Easter's presence
during this song and many other numbers
created a sound which can only be described
as a barrage of Rickenbackers
After a round of applause from an
energetic and excited audience, the band
broke Into “Catapult,” also from Murmur.
This song featured a booming bass line from
the boyishslooking Mike Mills, and great hor
monied from Mills and drummer Bill Berry to
complement Stripe’s croning. Although
Stripe didn't thrash around as much as he
did in last year's performance at The
Chateau, he still has a truly unique style of

R.E.M,'s moving music makes people want
to dance, and that's what's relly Important
R.E.M., minus Easter, next played the first
of eight new songs, an Interesting number
Which Pete Buck, the guitarist, dubbed “an

Where the comparison ends, While Stripe
plays an excellent, frontman, Buck leaps
‘about the stage with great vigor as Mills pun
ches out a steady bass line and Berry pounds
a strong backbeat, all of which combine to
create the R.E.M, mood
Another popular number, “Pilgrimage,”
was a perfect illustrationof R.E.M.'s greatest
strengths, They made the transition from a
brooding, balladish atmosphere to a sudden
tush of raging, unabashed power with ap:
parent ease, never missing a beat. The mood
of the song doesn't really change, bul

sticking to a rigid song list, Later in the show
when prompied by a fan, they even did a
rocking version of Blue Oyster Cull’s "(Don't
Fear) the Reaper,” which added some
tongue-in:cheek humor to the show.
During many of the covers, two gifs join:

Their stage antics included fondling and pet

taking themselves too seriously, To see them

When's the last time you saw a band play the
theme song from "Barney Miller?”
R.E.M, played about 29 songs, and they
looked like they could have played for a

last number, "Boxcars (Carnival of Sorts).””
Their energy-packed performance was more
than worth the admission price which, in
cidentally, has doubled since last year's

sold, which, along with the increased ticket

The film, by Japanese filmmaker Nagiso
Oshima, is obsessed by many things) the
Samurai code of honor, balance and
homosexuality, violence
homeostasis
(although it is not a graphically violent
movie) and hari'kari (suicide to prevent
one's honor). These themes are expressed
abstractly within the film in many ways: for
example, the obsession of balance in every
scene Is coptured by the way Oshima places
objects in his shots and how he balances and
pairs characters.
The film, which is shot half in Japanese
‘and half in English, presents for each British
character a Japanese counterpart who
possesses similar characteristics but reacts
quite differently {0 similar circumstances due
to the different values of each culture. One
of the most provocative pairings Is that of
Major Jack Celliers (David Bowle) with Cap:
tain Yonol (Ryuichi Sakamoto), Its very in
foresting to note the balance here, too, since
Bowie and Sakamoto are rock stars.
Yonol and Culllers ore both angry men

film, a Korean guard is humiliated, and

also homosexual in that there is not one

Oshima’s obsession with Samurai honor

A major problem with "Merry Christmas,
Mr Lawrence” is its reliance on more than
one character's point of view within the film:
Ih fact, it becomes rather confusing
throughout the whole film as to who is the
protagonist and who is the antagonist. Such
anarchy in the film reflects Oshima’s in
sistence on the philosophy, “no one Is right

social order, and most of the film takes place
within a contained orea, the POW. camp,
With several character's point of views, the
plotline takes on a complexity that Oshima
has trouble handling, The story follows that
Lawrence and his fellow POW’s have been
Jinprisoned and an order of power has been
developed. Such order is interrupted when
the rebellious Celliers arrives at the camp.
Yonol, the commandant of the camp,

SUNYA officials seem to have been quick to
follow suit. With their recent proposal to charge bus
fees, SUNYA administrators have brought this
strategy home,
It should be understood that this one proposed bus
fee is only the beginning, New fees and the increase
of present ones could casily find their way onto
SUNY campuses
Ten dollars per semester (or ten cents per ride)
doesn't seem like much, but the sum is not the only
factor to be considered. If the first step is taken, if
the first fee is initiated, then where will it stop? With
50 dollars a semester? With fees for frogs in biology
labs?
Perhaps the most distressing aspect of the proposal
lies in the fact that fees are not part of the actual tui-
tion charges, Therefore increases in fees are not met

Perhaps statewide SUNY administrators have
regrouped after last year's defeat from the “Fight the
Hike!’ movement and are now proceeding with a new
tactic.
The issue of tuition increases Was fought en masse
by the students of SUNYA and students from. all over
the state, The “Fight the Hike!’ movement formed
by SASU was a tremendous success. Tuition was in-
creased, but not on the grand scale that originally
was proposed,
It may seem to administrators that simple fee
hike proposal may not raise as much ire among the
student population as a massive tuition increase.
SUNY administrators have regrouped, student
leaders must do the same. A new approach must be
developed and a plan of attack initiated before it is
too late,
A bus fee is not only discriminatory against ott
campus students, but is unfeasible administratively
Further, at a time of organized efforts (0 reduce

Student leaders need help from the student body in
fighting the proposed arbitrary and discriminatory
bus fee.
However, student apathy has once again reared its
ugly head with the fow turnout at the public hearings
for the bus fee, A grand total of five spectators from
the student body showed up at the three public hear

This cannot continue, Bus fee proposals have been
made often in the past and rejected, A bus fee must
be prevented. The bus fee is just a beginning, Even

Student leaders have to organize a large-scale ef

The politics of pornography
Pornography is over a $5 billion dollar industry today,
and as a result of its financial success, pornography has
become a valid and respectable'industry, However, only in
patriarchal terms can it be respectable since it is a vehicle
for misogynous propaganda. Pornography has become a
most effective controlling force in the oppression of
women,

of erotica and sexuality, In fact, it is a distortion of
women's sexuality for the phallocentrie pleasure of men

One of the main reasons the Philadelphia
Phillies and the Baltimore Orioles are in the
World Series is because they received major
contributions from “‘role’’ players, These
players were not able to achieve the im-
pressive statistics because they only played
part of the time, but they are a main reason
these two teams are in the series, However,
there were many outstanding performances
turned in by major leaguers in both leagues
this past season
First, a look at the American League. For
the second straight season, it looks like a
shortstop will win the AL Most Valuable
Player Award. Cal Ripken, Jr, had an outstan:
ding year for the Orioles at shortstop in
leading the league in fielding chances and
hits (211), Ripken also managed to drive in
and score over 100 runs while batting .318
Ripken's main competition for the MVP
Award will come from teammate Eddie Mur
ray. Murray boasted a .306 average while
having 33 home runs and 111 RBls. Oddly
enough, these were the only two players
(with the exception of second baseman Rich
Dauer) who did not platoon in the Oriole
lineup this year
The most productive double play com:
bination in years helped the Detroit Tigers to
a second:place finish in the American
League east, Lou Whitaker (,320) and Alan
Trammell (.319) were third and fourth in the
league in batting. The tandem combined for
nearly 400 hits,
The player to boast the most impressive
slots in either league was Red Sox lefifielder
Jim Rice. Rice ted the American League in

The Red Sox also received a great year
from third baseman Wade Boggs, Boggs led
the major leagues in batting with a .361
average while collecting 210 hits,
The Yankees’ Dave Winfield turned in im:

his mouth than with his bat. Winfield made
sure everyone knew how great a year he was
having, especially the press
Carlton Fisk, Greg Luzinski and AL Rookie:
of-the-Year candidate Ron Kittle supplied
right-handed firepower for the White Sox to
the tune of 93 home runs. Fisk, who was bat
ting below .200 in mid-June, silenced all the
critics who said he was through by finishing
up batting 269 with 26 homers and 86 RBIs,
Kittle finished the year with 35 HRs, the se
cond highest total ever for a rookie (Frank
Robinson had 38),
Kittle’s two. adversaries for Rookie-of-the
Year are Baltimore pitcher Mike Boddicker
and Cleveland shortstop Julio Franco, Bod
dicker finished with a 16-8 record and a 2.77

season for Von Hayes, batted .277 while

Possibly the best pitching performance was
turned in by Kansas City relief ace Dan
Quisenberry. Quisenberry had more saves
phy had a Willie Mays-type year down in
Atlanta, He became the first player in the NL
to join the 30-30 club (30 home runs, 30
steals) since Bobby Bonds in the early 1970s,
Murphy also batted over .300, drove in 121
runs and scored 131. With numbers like
these, he’s got to be a shoe-in for the MVP.
The Montreal Expos produced two players
With outstanding statistics this year. Leadoff
hitter Tim Raines led the major leagues in
tuns scored with 133 while stealing 91 bases,
Centerfielder Andre Dawson finished the
year with 32 HRs, and 113 RBIs, and batted
299. If it weren't for the Mets (he batted
close {0 .100 against the Mets io 18 games),
Davwson could have won the batting title
Mike Schmidt once again led the league in
home runs with 40 roundstrippers, He has

fact that he was doing a super job. | hope Kansas goes 0

After 28 years, two professional sports are back
A’s move to Heritage Park
By MARC BERMAN
Sports Writer
Now, the players are scattered in such remote
places like Columbia, South Carolina and Wichita,
Kansas, but from the months of April through
September, this group of success-starved ballplayers
perform their trade in the city of Albany,
These group of ballplayers are better known as the
Albany-Colonie A's, a double A minor league fartr
team of the Oakland A's, who represent only the se
Cond professional baseball franchise ever to play in
the Albany area,
The last professional baseball team was the Albany
Senators, who moved out in 1955, Thus, for 28 years,
sportcrazed Albany fans were forced to gc
Without a professional baseball team, until last year,
when a young Glens Falls businessman, Ben Bernard,
purchased the then-named West Haven A’s and
brought them to Capitaland, Bernard made two
assurances: A new ballpark would be built for them
and an increase in attendance would be apparent,
So far, the 29-year-old Bernard, who was one yeat
old when the Sonators moved out of Albany, has
made good on both vows,
The A’s, in their first season here which endew
September 3, drew crowds approximately five times
the size of the ones in West Haven, Connecticut.
The final attendance figures of 200,432, compared
to West Haven's yearly average of 40,000, even
shocked top officials in the A’s organization, who ex:
pected to draw in the range of 100,000 to 150,000
people,
“The fans in Albany have been hungry for a baseball
team for a long time,’ sald assistant General Manager
Mike Jones, “It's a baseball town and they're too far
from any major league stadiums,” But it was the pro-
spect of a new stadium being built that lured the
change of location from West Haven to Albany.
That brings us to Heritage Park, a stadium in Colonie
built this past year for the sole purpose of it becoming
the habitat of the now A's.
In the construction of the new stadium fore-
ed the A’s to play the first three months of the season
in ancient Bleecker Stadium on Clinton Avenue, built
In 1937. Finally, on July 20 the park was completed
and the A’s moved in for the last two months of the
Attendance seemed to rise following the change of
stadiums; as there were times when 8000 fans had to
Squeeze In the 5000-seat stadium,
‘And while all this interest and media hype was oc-
curring, the A’s were floundering in the standings.
‘They wound up the season with a fifth-place finish in
the Eastern League with a record of 63-73, But for the
Albany fans, winning and losing didn't seem to matter,
‘ —
They finally had a team of their own
“They (fans) were great all season no matter how
bad we performed some nights,”’ said Jones. “They
always came back the next night.”
Even after the season came to a close on September
3, the Albany A’s were still making headlines. On
September 29, former Colonie A’s pitcher Mike War
ren threw a major-league no-hitter for the Oakland A's
against the Chicago White Sox, causing not only a ma:
jor stir in the Albany area but around the whole coun:
try.
Warren had started off the season here in a Colonie
A’s uniform and compiled a 6-2 record, giving every
indication that he was a major league pitcher, At the
end of May, he was so impressive, Oakland called him
up to the big club, bypassing the triple A Tacoma
team, Warren was so dominant in Double A ball that
‘even a month aftr his exodus from Albany, he stil led
the eastern league in strikeouts,
The news of Warren's no-hitter, while causing a
shock to the rest of the major leagues, probably wasn’t
too surprising for Albany fans who saw him pitch
“He was awesome,” said Jones. “He was unhittable
when he was in the league.’
There are other players in the Colonie A’s that are
considered to have a future in the majors,
Shortstop Louis Quinones was brought up by
Oakland for a month during July and August.
Third baseman Tim Pynarski, whose powerful bat
slammed 29 home runs this year earning him M.V.P.
honors for the team, might be seeing action in the ma-
Jors this upcoming season, He most likely will be mov-
ed up to the Triple A Tacoma A’s,
In fact, odds are that half of this year’s team will be
moving Up a step to Tacoma, including popular Tom
Romano, whose .320 batting average, 24 homeruns
and 89 RBIs speak for themselves.
This creates a disturbing problem for the Colonie A’s
fans, who will certainly see theit favorite players shuf-
fle off to higher level clubs, Almost like a paradox, the
ter a player is in a minor league club, the quicker
s gone,
Even the opening day manager, Peter Whisenant,
never made it the whole season. Whisenant, fired in
mid-july, was replaced by Keith Lipman, who isn't
sure if he'll be back when spring training starts in
March {n Arizona,
“Ws tough on the fans with players constantly
tevolving through the door,’’ sald Jones. “But that’s
how the system works,”
But for now, the Albany fans ar content, No matter
win or lose, they will come to Heritage Park and root
for players that might just be on the team for a tem-
porary span of two weeks,
‘iter all it’s been 28 years since they've had a pr
fessional baseball club to root for. c
OCTOBER 18, 1983 (1 ALBANY STUDENT PRESS Sports October 5
By MARK WILGARD
Sports Writer
Now for today’s mind-boggling question: C
name one player on the Albany Patroons? B
have you ever heard of the Albany Patroonst Chances
re, you know very little about Albany's professional
basketball team, And like most other people on tiy
campus, you probably have no hindsight into what th
franchise is about. It's about time you knew.
Until 1982, it had been nearly 30 years since
ty of Albany had a professional sports
(baseball's Albany Senators were that team), Albany
County Executive Jim Coyne wanted to change that
Coyne, a sports fanatic all of his life, met with the com
sioner of the Continental Basketball Associati
Jim Drucker, in February of 1982, The two discussed
the possibility of bringing a professional. basketball
m to this-city, After meeting with Drucker, Coyne
id the Capital District Basketball Corpora
tion, a non-profit organization that had hopes of ob
taining a franchise. The team didn’t have an owner,
and in order to get a franchise, it is necessary to prove
that you're a visible organization, Coyne’s initial move
Was to get in touch with local businessmen and try to
sell as many season tickets as possible, They had to sell
600 seats by April 1, or it was so long to professional
basketball in Albany
Coyne and the other businessmen became the
Board of Directors for the Albany Patroons, And they
had no trouble in selling tickets, Using the slogan,
"We don't play, you don't pay,’' Coyne and his part
ners easily sold 600 tickets, and kept selling them until
they broke all CBA records for season ticket sales, Ap
parently the people of Albany were hungry for a pro
fessional sports franchise
They got it. The Board of Directors held a contest to
choose the nickname for the CBA’s newest franchise
Patrons was chosen because the original Dutch set
tlers in Albany County went by that name, And so it
began: the Albany Patrons opened up their hom
season on December 3, 1982 in the refurbished
Washington Avenue Armory. A new floor was put in.
New lights were installed. A new scoreboard and new
seating facilities also helped to usher in the Patrons,
As stated earlier, the Patroons are a non-profit
organization, The entire operating budget is a result of
advertising and ticket sales, They rely heavily on the
community in order to exist, Since SUNYA represents
such a large portion of the City of Albany, it’s very im:
portant for the Patroons to appeal to the students on
this campus;
For us to have a successful year, we count on a
large student body attendance,’ noted the Director of
Publicity for the Patrons, Joseph Hennessy. “We try
to schedule games so they don’t conflict with Albany
State basketball games, We need SUNYA support
again, We'll die without this support.” The Patrons
will make an appearance here at SUNYA early in their
season. A few players will set up a table and try to
sell!’ the club, Hennessy notes, "We have to take
more advantage of SUNY.
Hennessy said that ‘The Patroons were easy to sell
Since they are a non-profit organization, the public
likes the idea that no one was making a quick buck.”
Indeed, the fans quickly fell in love with their team
The Patrons drew over 50,000 fans and shattered the
existing CBA record for attendance. They also hosted
the CBA All-Star game, in which the Patrons beat the
AllStars in front of a sell-out crowd of 2,700, Hen:
hessy compares the team to the NFL's Green Bay
Packers, who are also. community-supported. Every
other sports franchise has an owner,
The key point in the Patroons’ inaugural season
came in the midst of a seven-game losing streak. Hen
nessy pointed out, “We still put people in the stands
during the bad time, Right then and there we knew
we'd be all right for the year
Those players who fail to make the NBA basically
have two options if they want to continue playing
basketball. They can go to Europe, play a maximum of
30 games and collect between $20,000 and $150,000.
But their chances of geiting back to the NBA would be
minimal. The salary in the CBA is extremely low
($350-$500 a week), but if a player has any desire to
urn to the NBA, the CBA is the league for them. The
CBA is sort of like a farm system of the National
Basketball Association.
The affiliation works in the following manner: Each
CBA club hay (Wo parent NBA clubs which they get
their players from, The Patroons get players from the
New York Knicks and the Denver Nuggets, They sign
their players released by these teams. However, any
team in the NBA can sign any player from any CBA
team, This “indirect” affiliation “gives players more
‘Opportunities to Ret back to the NBA,” according to
Hennessy.
There are currently 40 ex-CBA players in the NBA
Three of them are Charley Criss, Clay Johnson and Bil
s
83 Patroons sent two players over to the
NBA, Starting center Mike Davis went to the Knicks,
and starting power forward Larry Sprigys went to the
Chicago Bulls
The Patroons were famous for a couple of major
reasons, First, the team provides scholarships for male
ind female athletes in the Albany area, Last year, the
COBA awarded six scholarships of $1,000 apiece
Hennesy hopes the team can give away more next
year
Secondly, the Patrons had hoped to spur economic
development in the Albany area, They accomplished
this goal with tremendous success, as over 50,000
people came out to watch the team,
The 198384 team will look to improve upon it
18:26 record of last year. The head coach is former
Knick forward Phil Jackson, who replaced Dean Mem
inger in the middle of last season, The Patroons arc
hoping to get back four key players
‘One of them is Ralph McPherson, who was cut from
the summer training camps:of the Knicks and Utah
Jaze, McPherson, labeled as the “fan's favorite,’
‘averaged 14.2 points and eight rebounds a game last
year, Barry Young, Frankie Sanders (who was the 13th
overall player chosen in the 1979 NBA draft) and Phil
Seymore are the other possible returnees
Training camp opens up November 17. This gives
the teafn only two weeks to cut the roster down fron:
25 to 10, as the season begins on December 1. All
CBA teams carry 10 players at home, and nine on the
road. The extra player is usually a local player that «
team carries only at home to keep the fans happy. Bu
according to Hennessy, “The Patroons will not have «
‘token local! this year,"
The league is set up with two six-team divisions. The
Patroons will battle the Lancaster Lightning, Bay State
Bombardiers, Dan Juan Coquis, Sarasota Stingers and
Toronto Tornadoes in their division, Four of these
teams will make the playoffs.
In this day and age, when everyone Is out to make a
quick dollar, it’s refreshing to note the Patrons’ im:
age of a community-oriented organization. They
operate with the fan in mind. Other professional fran-
chises should be quick to follow suit, a

‘and present them with a so-called "inside view"? of whi
America is like by writing an article jor the 10
Newspaper. 1 could generalize in the article that Ameri
food is exceedingly inedible and quite greasy, that the
government and university would cease (o function if there,
Were some sort of computer breakdown, that nothing can
be arranged without filling out stupid forms in triplicate,
that Americans behave superficially and narrowmindedly
towards foreigners and tend to despise non-white fellow
citizens, that American men are “high strung, high perfor-
mance units...whose clashing ambitions and egos make for
much back-stabbing!’ (Quote from Mr, Kacandes’ article),
that American students lack manners and behave quite like
the average self-centered two-year olds in dormitories, that
American school bus service runs irregularly and inet"
ciently (0 say the least, and that everything inthis country is
quite expensive and for a poor person to survive on what
the bourgeois thinks is appropriate is quite unrealistic, OF
course, these are generalizations, no! well-thought-out
observations of the sociological and anthropoligical habits
of Americans, Basically what these are are what New
Yorkers call a kyetch, By the way, 1 never did intend to
write an article about the negatives or various cliches of
America. In his article about Germany, “An Ametican i
Munich: An Inside View’, Tom Kacandes presents himself
445.4 Sociological observor who unforiunatley seems 10 lack
the qualities which enabled a person to give a realistic and
profound view of a country. These qualities are a feeling
for tact, the readiness to learn, the tolerance to secept dif
ferences and to haye the maturity to examine why they ex
ist, and the respect of the dignity of other human beings
Needless to say, Mr. Kacandey’ article way written from a
somewhat bitter, ethnocentric point of view, Sue a mode
of opinion would only lead any artical into hyperboles, of-
fensiveness and many uniruths. If this iy not the case, then
it is beyond my comprehension how lie way able to write
such a destructive article giving only negative impressions
Of a country and its people Which he searcely Knows. [am
sorry that Mr, Kacandes nad such a bad time in Germany,
but perhaps it was his attitude of negativity there that led 10
the German's strange behaviour towards him. Yet,
somehow, it seems odd to me that during his (iree month
stay in Munich, there was only a non-stop series of embar
rassing and unhappy encounters with Germans and through
this he developed such aversion to them, Did he not haye at
least one happy moment there
Along with many international and American students, 1
felt very angry about the contents of fils article and 1am
shocked that such weak journalism could be published in a
respectable newspaper
Many of Mr. Kacandes’ generalizations ate not par
ticularly accurate nor are they german syndromes alone
For example, the ‘need for regulation” and bureaucracy is
to be found in all modern, democratic nations, Further
more, wherever people with different cultural backgrounds

Women harriers finish seventh
eect i
A sevenih place finish in Saturday's SUNYAC
Championship in Buffalo left Head Coach Ron White
of Albany State’s women’s cross country team looking
for some needed improvement at the upcoming Capital
District meet,
Albany finished behind Binghamton, Buffalo State,
Geneseo State, Plaltsburgh State, Brockport State and
Oswego State, The only team that Albany officially
outscored was Fredonia Stat, 136 to 148. The
Binghamton squad, which defeated Albany earlier this
season, was $9 points better than their closest com
petitors,
Despite the team's poor finish, many of the runners
achieved personal bests. This may lead one to wonder
why Albany finished only seventh,
“The competition within the SUNYAC has really
picked up," responded Coach White, Last year we
were getting closer 10 Binghamton, Now the cross
country programs of the other schools are getting bet
ter too, Even though our runners have good times,
they're still be'ng pushed back by other runners."” On:
ly six points separated the fifth place team, Brockport,
from seventh place Albany
Co-captains Karen Kurthy and Bette Dzamba were
the first (wo from Albany to cross the line. Kurthy
finished fifth out of 72 runners with her time of 18:55
Her finish earned her a place in the SUNYACs Hall of
Fame, an honor bestowed on the top five finishers.
Deamba's time of 19:44 was noteworthy
recovering from an illness at the time, Fine perfor
tances were also given by Maura Mahon, 20:17; Erma

George, 20:52; and Kim Patch, 21:18, These times

401K and 43rd, respectively,

hard to do well," commented Coach White. “Karen
and Beite are doing well, but the other girls are getting
4 bit lost in the numbers. They're definitely improving,
but in large meets, the improvement is harder to sce.
Improving our third, fourth and fifth runners has been
our goal from the beginning.’
Kurthy attributes the team's improvement partly to
the training program last week. "This is the first week
that the coach tapered us off,"'she said, “We had a
medium type day on Thursday and we had Friday
off.”
Co-captain Dzamba echoed Kurthy's sentiments,
“It’s important to have a rest every now and then,
she commented, “If we just ran day after day, we
might get run down,"

Coach White, “1 didn't think that she was quite ready;

Albany State football coach Bob Ford forecasted
before Saturday's Cortland game, “If a boxer has a
great right hook, you better stop that right hook or
you're going to lose."’ If the Albany State football
tegm were in a boxing match, they would have been
sent to the canvas early.
The Danes failed to stop Cortland's right hook, and
as Coach Ford foretold, the result was a Dane loss,
dropping their record (0 2-4.
Fullback Daye Cook, the second leading rusher in
the Cortland history, ran for 185 yards, including the
Red Dragons’ only two touchdowns — a 23 yard score
and a 79 yard romp — to pace his team (0 a 14-7 vic-

The Danes’ hopes of reaching the .500 mark were
dashed when quarterback Mike Milano's fourth-and-
seven pass from the Cortland 20 with 1:20 left in the
contest sailed over the outstretched arms of receiver
John Donnely in the endzone.
“The wind seemed to take it," said Milano, who
completed 14 of 31 attempts for 130 yards in an ad-
mirable effort
Approximately 4200 Cortland fans at Chugger Davis
Field nearly saw the Red Dragons give the game away
with 2:14 left when linebacker Ed Eastman recovered a
fumbled snap at the Cortland 25, With the Danes trail-
ing 14-7, all that was needed was a touchdown and a
two-point conversion.

Said linebacker Eastman: “The guy just didn’t want

On Cook's first touchdown run, which came with

fasiman had said about *not wanting to go down."*
On a controversial play, Cook appeared to be stop-
ped after a five yard gain up the middle but no referee
