Goal In Booters’ Win
by Nathan Salant
The Albany State varsity soccer
team ran their preseason record to
240 Tuesday by edging Fulton -

Freshman Jorge Aguilar took a
pass form Frank Selca and dribbled
around the visitors’ goulie to score
the tone goal five minutes. into the
second half,
Both teams failed to capitalize on
several scoring opportunities, in-
cluding a Fulton-Montgomery
penalty kick saved by Albany's
goalie, Henry Obwald,
“Our team play was generally
good," said Boaters’ coach Bill
Schieffelin, “but we still have to
make some changes and im-
provements.
Considering we were doinga lotof
experimenting at different positions,
things went fairly well.”
According to Schieffelin, the
visitors proved to be stronger than
expected,
“We knew they had a good, solid
squad, but they were stronger, more
poised and disciplined than our
reports had led us to believe," ex-
plained Schieffelin. “All of us were
really impressed with them."
As for the Booters, Schieffelin was
particularly pleased with the perfor-
mance of Aguilar

There is no doubt that winning at
Alfred will bea challenge.The Alfred
fans are well known for their hos
ty, and most coaches agree it will
take a very poised and well disciplin-
ed team to win there.
The Saxons are coached by a
legend in his own time, Alex Yunich,
Yunich sports a career mark of 175-
94-11, ranks fourth among win-
ningest coaches in college football
today.
Last year the Saxons limited their
opponents to
only 153.6 yards a
offense, Of equal importance, the
Saxons lost only two players to
graduation.
The stars are All-East defensive
end John Van Gura and left
linebacker John Peterson. Van Gura
is very quick and strong, and Ford
calls him their best defensive player.
Peterson at 6 feet one inch, 205
pounds is a very smart team leader.
Alfred plays out of a basic 5-3
defense with multiple adjustments
The key for Albany is quickly
reading the different tipoffs given by
the defense.
Danes’ coach Bob Ford believes
this is 80 per cent of the battle.
“Our quarterbacks must be ready
to receive and move the ball very
y, and the backs will have to be
extra alert against their defense.”
Ford characterizes Alfred's offen-
sive unit as “hard nosed and hard hit-
ting.”
They like to run up the middle but
will also run off tackle if they have
to, In addition, they throw the foot-
ball well.”
Alfred's ground game will rest on
the shoulders of seniors Tim O'Neill
and Frank Yorio, Yorio, the
fullback, is a strong, powerful
runner, and, while not exceptionally
fast, is a deceptive and effective
runner, according to Ford
Greg Thomas, the Saxons out-
standing wide receiver, has been
shifted to quarterback, and thereare
some questions as to whether he has
enough experience running the
offense, Ford, expects a “very, very
difficult game, but one which the
s certainly are capable of win-
lysis: Albany must take it to
Alfred early and set the pace. The
crowd and atmosphere at Alfred are
factors which must be ignored by the
team on the field, or the Danes will
fall, as have so many others
The key will be defense, Can
Albany run through Alfred, and can
Albany out-defense the top defense
in the nation? The question is better
left to the men in the purple, gold,
and white on Saturday than to
speculation now.

Ithaca: The Big One
by Nathan Salant
and Craig Bell
The chant, “We're number one’
may become a reality Suturday,
September 20, when the Albany
State Great Danes host the Ithaca
Bombers in what Danes’ Coach Bob
Ford calls, “the biggest game in
Albany State history.”
Never before has the number one
team in any NCAA Divisioncome to
Albany, or even met a Great Danes
squad, but tomorrow, number one
ranked Whaca plays number six
ranked Albany State at 1 p.m
Last week the Danes faced 1974's
top Division 11 defense at Alfred
and were winners by a 19-13 score,
but Ithaca and Alfred are worlds
‘apart, according to several coaches
who've seen both squads.
“Their offense is awesome,” says
Ford. Last year the Bombersaverag-
ed 40,3 points @ game, and they
rolled right over St. Lawrence in
their season opener lust week, 20-6.
The Bombers copped the 1974
Lambert Trophy, the symbol of
supremacy in the East, and were
number two in the nation behind
lowa Central State
The Bombers, like State, area tri-
ple option offense, but they operate
out of the “I" formation.
Quarterback Jerry Boyes, a 6 foot
2 inch 190 pound senior, ran for 158
yards and three touchdowns last
week and is extremely capable of
running the offense. In addition he
has a strong arm.
According to Ford, his split end,
Bill Bryant, is an excellent
receiver."He has great hands to go
along with his blazing speed,” said
Ford.
Like to Run
The running game will be handled
by halfbacks Dave Pitzer and Bill
Carney and fullback Alan Howell,
“Ithaca likes to run inside with
power and just blow you right out of
there,” explained Ford,
“Our job will be to continuously
give them different looks on the cor-
ner and stop Boyes from tuning up-
field.” We have got to make them go
to the airand then see what happens.
“If we hold them to twenty points
we have a fighting chance.”
“On defense we figure Ithaca to try
to contain, try to squeeze us in and
try (0 out slug us.
“They operate out of the basic pro
4-3 defense and they do have pro
size,” said Ford, “We will be givit

Although SUNYA President
Emmett Fields announced in his first
address to the faculty that he would
not appoint a dean to the College of
Aris and Sciences, he is inviting
‘comment from the Arts and Sciences’
faculty to determine how he should
organize their college.
As President Fields sees it, there
are three alternatives to the problem
of structuring the A & S College:
The first choice, according to
Fields, would be to “leave things as
they are now, but strengthen the
three divisions within the college.”
The three divisions are Behavioral
and Social Sciences, Humanities,
and Science and Mathematics,
Secondly, Fields says he could
“organize the A & S College so that it
conforms to the demands of @
college, which would include the in
troduction of curriculum re-
quirements.” At this time it would be
necessary to appoint a dean to the
college. “The way the College of
Arts and Sciences is set up now,”
says Fields, “it just doesn't hold
together as a college in the
traditional sense of the word.”
The third alternative, as he sees it,
would be to “make colleges out of
each of the three divisions, at which
time the division heads would be
come deans of their own college.”
President Fields says the reasons
he originally announced that he
‘would not appoint a dean to the A &
S College are that “the cost is high,
and the benefits are not clear. There
is no real college, except on paper.”
The A & S College has been
without a dean for more than two
years, The last Dean was 1. Moyer
Hunsberger who resigned in May of
1973, Since that time, the division
heads have worked directly with
Vice President Phillip Sirotkin in
deciding academic policy.
Sirotkin says that at this time he

doesn't want an A & S Dean, “The
President's decision was a sound
one,” said Sirotkin, “and 1 will con-
cur with it.” He feels that the posi-
tion of A & S Dean is superfluous,
and says he has been operating very
well without one for the past wo
years.Richard Kendall, head of the
Division of Behavioral and Social
Sciences, echoes Sirotkin’s sen-
timents. “The relationship between
the Vice President and the Division
heads has been very satisfactory,”
says Kendall,
Has the A & S Dean been missed
by the faculty? “Yes and no," says
Kendall. “Some have, some haven't
President Fields’ inquiries should
determine how the faculty feels and
what should be done. That's the
main item of business now—to
define the A & S College and decide
what to do with it.”
As yet, Fields has not formally i
itiated the process of polling the
faculty. Exactly how he will do this
fhas not been disclosed,
Should the President organize the
A &S College so that it meets his
criteria for a bona fide college, @
dean will have to be chosen to
preside over the college. The Search
Committee for the Artsand Sciences
has already recommended a dean to
Sirotkin, selected from the can-
didates that the Committee has in-
terviewed for the position,
Because of Fields’ decision not to
appoint a dean, the candidate
selected by the Search Committee
has not been informed of their
choice, Sirotkin declined to reveal
who was picked for the job because
he feels it might “reflect badly on the
other candidates.”
The three candidates were:
mour Geiser, Director of the
School of Statistics at the University
of Minnesota; George H. Stein,
professor of history at SUNY
Binghamton; Ivo Lederer, professor
of history at Stanford Univentity,

Pinball Change to Be Made in Campus Center
by Jim Shaugnessy
Acting ona proposal submitted by
Student Association Vice-President
Rick Meckler some two months ago
which was subsequently accepted by
FSA, the Campus Center will
transform one of its first floor
Jounges into an arcade.
The conversion, which concems
the four small lounges situated
above the cafeteria and the present
game room is expected to be com-
pleted by late October.
According to Meckler, the
Proposal called for the transference
of the game room from its current
location so that pinball, pinig-pong,
cards, chess’ and television
enthusiasts may each occiipy one of
the four lounges mentioned above.
The game rooms’ present location is
‘adjacent to the pool room on the first
floor of the Campus Center.
The main changes necessary to ac-
comodate the move will be concen-
trated on the first west side lounge
‘and will includé walling off its two
open sides, changing the fighting
system and installing the electrical
sockets needed to allow the installa-
tion of several game machines, The
excess furniture presently in the
lounge will be moved to either the
Fireside Lounge or the present game
room,
A general complaint ofcongestion
ta the game’room instigated the
proposal, while the ‘noise of the
machines and the disruptiveness of
the ping-pong balls added heavily to
its acceptance. The only other alter=
native suggested was the removal of
the machines.
The’ noise emanating from the
current game room cannot be con-
tained because of its openess, The
noise tends to echo although advice
was given on acoustics in the hopes
of toning the noise down. Because of
its location immediately aboveit, the
Fireside Lounge has been rendered
almost useless for study and un-
appealing for socializing. Thus wall-
ing off the west side lounge willaid in
sound proofing.
With pinball and the other games
centered in a relatively concentrated
area, SA is hopeful that those
students searching for a semi-quiet
place (o congregate and meet people
without trudging back to dormitory
Jounges, will make better use of the
Fireside Lounge than they have in
the past, Especially those students
living off-campus.

cited Meckler, suggested a combina-

demands locked doors. However, if
the door system doesn't work as well
as the pinball company likes, the
guards will be called in. ‘The com-

A lot of people, or rather a few,
are relaxing at the pinball

Two letters were written fo Presi-
dent Benezet in the form of a rebut
tal. The letters, written May 26 und
June 12, challenged every point the
Select Committee made, said Dr
Schmalberger. The fact that no one
got in touch with any one asa result
of those letters raised a question as to
whether they were properly con-
sidered
1c way also pointed out that the
reports submitted by the State
Educaton Department were only the
preliminary reports.Further
questions were raised as to the time
clement involved. Dr. Sehmatberger
claimed that the ninety days in which
the Select Committee had to review
all the programs at SUNY A was un-
reasonable, He also painted out that
the committee meetings and final
decisions took place during the
summer when few people are
around.
Chairman of the Select Com-
mittee, Vincent O'Leary agreed that

approach from President Henezet's
point of view.
The options available to. the
graduate students fall into two
categories, Either they will have to
complete their theses before the
academic year isup, or they will have
to transfer, According to Dr
Schmalberger, the State University
of New York at Stony Brook hity a

‘out, however, that there are so muny
fields of astronomy, it sometimes
may be difficult to transfer, About

Commissioner of Education
Ewald B. Nyquist today amplified
the proposal he made last week that

Education imposetuition chargeson

ty beginning with Spring 1976

recommendation was attacked by
some Board members who claim it
could cause a strain on students
from low income families
In a letter to Board president
Alfred A. ‘Giardino, the Com-
missioner pointed out that theexact
opposite would be true if his
recommendation were put into
effect. The increased State and
Federal aid which would be
ble to most students if tuition
were charged would more thanoffset
the additional cost to students from
low and middle income families
In his personal last week,’ Nyquist
had called fora yearly tuitionof $650
for freshmen and sophomores and
{$800 a year for juniors and seniors,
which is the sameas charged by State

Nyquist cites figures just compiled
by the Education Department which
show that if this tuition is charged,55
percent of the CUNY un-
dergraduates who come from
families with gross incomes of $11,000
or less a year would not be required
to pay any portion of the tuition out

Classes Collect, Distribute Dues

Did you ever wonder exactly how

somebody hoarding the money for a

and Mark Benecke,
sophomore class
president, proved the

parties are the biggest spenders but
also included are picnics, movies,
and miscellanea like class T-shirts.
This year, O'Connor said, “We also
may give help with finding jobs to
the graduating seniors.”
‘The money that each class recieves
during the yeardoesnotarrive in one
lump sum. It comes from the Bur-
sur’s office as student bills are
processed, Bills are processed
throughout the entire semester.
It is difficult to determine how
many students will pay the optional
class dues, Therefore, according to
O'Connor, “the individual class
council has no way that they can
budget it [the m,oi.y'}. They can just
estimate from previons scars
Out of the ini) amount of
money, which O'Connor says can
vary from $3,000 to $6,000, the
various class activities are funded.
He estimates that from $2,500 to $3,-
000 is saved yearly by each class for
their senior week. Each class varies
in size, meaning that larger classes
have more money at their disposal.
O'Connor stresses that, “We are try
ing for quality rather than quantity,
but we are still trying to do as much
as we can.”
Benecke’s attitude towards class
spending slightly differs from that of
O'Connor's. It that the
sophomore class is a large one and
has a high percentage of dues-paying
students — about 80 per cent.
Benecke feels that their purpose is to
cater not only to that pa
class, but also to the university as a
whole. Commenting on the lick of
social life here on campus Benecke

‘Feminist Groups Hold
Fourth Rally in Albany
by Adrienne Rabinowitz
‘The fourth annual Women's Day
‘was held here in Albany on Sunday,
‘August 7, The day's program began
‘at 12:00 in Washington Park. Ap-
proximately 25 tables were set up in
the park representing a wide spec~
trum of interests including such
‘groups as: The League of Women

Center, Forum of Women in New
York State Government, Speak-Out
(a feminist journal), National
Organization of Women (NOW),
Women's Political Caucus and
Planned Parenthood.
The program in the park consisted
of several speakers, music by a
women’s band called Medusa
Muzic, poetry readings, workshops
in self-defense, women in education
and bicycle repair. Among the
speakers present were Theresa Cook
and Rezsin Adams, who are running
in the Democratic primaries for

the First Presbyterian Church on
Lark Street, to be followed by a

Naturally, in light of the recession,

today's popular image of the pen-

This brings up the question of
where these graduates look for work,
Many felt the New York State area
was a bad place for a young person
on the up and up.
Bill Brina, a veteran who just
received his Masters, said of New
York City,"Hey man, | was in Viet-
nam. One war isenough. I could live
there.” Others joked of New York's
budget crisis, or of the teachers’
strikes in both New York and the
Tri-City area. Laura Petrochko,
with a Masters degree in Russian,
said “the Albany job market is very
bad, unless you want a government
job. As for myself, I'm thinking of
Boston or Washington.”
Bill Brina said of the state
economy: “It's already done here, the
economy is developed . . . it might

Council Cops Out
by Daniel O'Connell
During a tempestuous meeting
replete with deletable expletives and
@ pounding gavel, the Central Coun-
cil on September tenth passed and
then voted down bill 7576-17 which
would have set aside a separate seat
on the Council for students now liv-
ing at the Hotel Wellington
Unfair Classification
The sponsor of the billGreg
Lessne (State),said he proposed it
because he felt that classifying the
Wellington students as commuters
for election purposes, as they are
now, might lead to unfair represen-
tation for one of the constituencies
involved. Lessne said that if no one
from the Wellington was elected it
would be doubtful that that group
with its unique needs and problems
would be adequately represented by
someone who doesn’t live there, On
the other hand, he pointed out, if the
people at the hotel organized
themselves they could
fe the true commuting students
ined voice in the Coun-
cil, Heconcluded his bill would pre-
vent cither of these occurances by
siving the over 200 students living at
the Wellington their own seat.
Councilperson Lessne’s argument
proved effective and the bill passed
by a vote of 12-540; however, the vic

SMOKE IT DONT GROW IT
‘A landmark marijuana case is un-
erway. in Alaska that could very
well determine how the federal
government will deal with states
which decriminalize pot.
The Alaskan legislature and
supreme court have both repealed all
state laws which treat marijuana
possession with criminal penalties.
Last month, however, the police
revealed that an undentified Juneau
resident was apprehended for
allegedly growing seven small mari-
juana plants. The cultivation of pot
is legal under Alaskan state law ——
but cultivation is a violation of
federal law.
Asa result, the plants have been
‘over to the Federal Drug Enforce-
ment Agency which says it has
forwarded them for further tests to
its San Francisco laboratories.
Federal officialsin Alaska say that
if the material turns out to be mari-
juana, the U.S. Attorney in Alaska
may decide to prosecute the offender
under federal laws since there are no
longer state laws outlawing the
offense
The federal decision is expected to
have repercussions in Oregon,
California, Colorade, Maine, and
Ohio --— stated which havealready
acted to decriminalize marijuana
CRIMES COUNTED
The new government in South
Vienam says it has set up a “war
crimes” museum to commemorate
the American presence in Vietnam.
The government says the
for American War Crimes in Viet-
nam” is now displaying such things
as howitzers, tanks, rockets, those
15,000 pound bombs known as
“daisy cutters" and torture in-
struments allegedly used by pro-
american officials of the former
Thiew government. The War Crimes
Museum also has one room featur~

administration says were used by

DREAMS COME TRUE
A Chicago man who claims to have
~ had recurring nightmares that all his
money would be taken away from
him is having his nightmares come
true.
According to Boston's Real
Paper, itall started when 43-year-old
Robert Friedman was stopped by a
policeman for panhandling in
Chicago. Friedman assured the of-
ficer that he really didn't need the
money and promptly opened a suit-
case to show the policeman $24,187
in cash, Friedman reportedly carried
the suitcase with him at all times
because he feared someone would
take away all of his money.
Someone did, Friedman was
brought before a judge, who heard
the story and committed him to a
psychiatric hospital against Fried-
man's will, Friedman was ordered to
pay court costs, lawyer's fees and
psychiatric testing costs, as well as
$60 a day in hospital fees,
Friedman's lawyers report that
this has cost $12000 so far, and that
unless they can convince authorities
to set Friedman free, his total life
savings will be eaten up in another
six months,
MOTHER WANTED
‘A West Coast Sunday school
teacher has been running classified
ads for—of all things, a woman to

According to the man, however,
there is only one problem: hedoesn't

sexual relations with her.

In a classified advertisement
appearing in the San Francisco
Cronicle, the man stated he is
urgently seeking a woman who
would agree to being artificially im-
pregnated by him——and who
would then turn the baby overtohim
at its birth.
The man explains that his wife is
infertile, and that he would pay as
much as $10,000 for a “test tube

DEVILS WORK
Colorado Senator Floyd Haskell
has called on the F.B.1, to investigate
the growing number of cattle
mutilations which have occured in at
least 10 western states,
Haskell says he met with F.B.1, of-
ficials in Denver tast week in an
attempt to have them enter the case,
Haskell states that the bizarre
killings have occurred in Colorado
and at least nine other states, He
saysi"in virtually all the cases, the
left car, left eye, rectum and sex
organ of each animal have been cut
away. Blood has been drained from
the carcasses and no blood has been
found around the carcasses.’
The senator also says he believes
that who ever is behind the
mutilations is using helicopters to
land in the middle of fields before
butchering the animals,
Investigators speculate that some
sort of satanist or devil-worshipping
cult is behing the hundreds of ritual
slayings reported in the Midwest and
the West.
‘An earlier federal investigation
into the killings was abruptly halted
by the U.S. Treasury. Department
for no apparent reason last spring
The Fort Star-Telegramreported at
the time that the investigation was
dropped shortly after the home of
the agent heading up the investiga-
tion was smeared with blood——an
action interpreted as some kind of
occult warning

Cellar Door productions, the’
promoters who handle many big
name rock acts, say that some of the
big name stars write nearly impossi-
ble clauses into their performance
contracts,
Take Elton John, for example:
when Elton is schelduled to do a
show, his contract requires that the
Promoters see to it that a hot si
down meal for a least 20 persons is
served back stage, featuring a full
menu drawn up personally by Elton,
Elton also requests large bagsof taco
chips and a quart of guacamoleyeight
bottles of french and german cham-
paign, with the brand and years ab-
solutely specified; fresh vegetables
and fruit for 20; and a case of
Heineken beer
The Grateful Dead are no easier to
please: they usually demand (and
get) 60 quarts of milk: six cases of
Heineken’s beer: and steak, lobster
and vegetarian meals o feed up to 30
people.
The Average White Band isa little
easier: Their only request is “no fried
chicken.” John Mayall, meanwhile,
asks for nothing else: Mayall always
requests fried chicken, particularly
from Kentucky Fried Chicken,
Cellar Door reports it did turn
down one request from an uniden-
tified big name rock group that ab-
solutely demanded six limousines.
That demand was vetoed, Cellar
Door says, because the group has
only five members ——

When Things Were Good...
by Edward J. O'Neill
‘book sits before you on your
and promplly tears, and somehow
you know that Wednesday nights
will never be the same again
I've just described the beginning of
When Things Were Rotten, « new
comedy series from the demented
mind of Mel Brooks. Brooks: has
heen making people laugh for years
with movies (Young Frankenstein),
albums (The 2000 Year Old Man),
and TV series (Ger Smart), and this
new showisno exceptionto the rule,
When Things Were Rotten is a
riotous re-telling of the Robin Hood
legend, starring Dick Gautier as a
super-heraic Robin who swings
from a tree to the dinner table and
calmly says, “Pass the salt.”
Sherwood Forest has been peopled
with hilarious characters such as
gluttonous Friar Tuck (Dick Van
Patten) who fights and cats at one
time, scalter-brained Maid Marion
(Misty Rowe), who knits a secret
message on an Afghan, and the evil
Sheriff of Nottingham (Henry Polic
1), whose dung
enemies must sing “Get
appease him.
With this show, Brooks seems to
be getting away from the recent style
of talky, topical situation comedies,
and back to a more basic approach.
When Things Were Rowen is filled
with slapstick (a tumultuous fight
scene, during which Robin calls fora
sword, and is pelted with ten), sight
es (Sir Ronald of MacDonald
wears it shirt proclaiming “Over 1,-
000,000 Dispatched"), and. pur
(Rabin gives the Sheriff an “arroy
shirt), in the style of Brook's hit film,
Blazing Saddles.
Watch When Things Were Rowen
‘on ABC, Wednesdays at 8, and |
guarantee that you will ugh, Watch
especially closely the crowd scenes,
which I feel are brilliant. The crowds
do and say everything in unison,
providing for a great comiceffect, tn
one such scene, the peasants are
commanded, “Hold your tongues!”
Immediately, they all stick out thei
tongues and grab hold
Now, “at's tunny!
The Television Invasion
Of The Madison Avenue
Body Snatchers |
by Lon Levin
It is too early in the season to criticize the new shows
has been disappoin-
uation development
they will get better. Because the medium to T.V. relies
on familiarity, a few shows must be seen beforea judge-
fairly. Although the premierewe
ting, perhaps with character and
ment can be passed.
T.V. is the only medium in which the entertainment
we are viewing becomes our friend, Close-ups are the
size of our own heads and not some huge, towering
Visage as on the screen. Kojak talks to us and we listen,
surrounded by the security and comfort of our roams,
unlike a cold movie theatre or playhouse, with strangers
aallabout. Anything can come into our house, We let the
1 Unit 4077 come inio
our living room oncea week, but can they comeinto our
Bunkers or Jeffersons or MA‘
neighborhood?
‘And then there are commercials. Because of our
secure surroundings we let their messages creep into our
skulls.
Our breath begins to smell like our feet, our feet
begin to smell like our breath, we need a pill ta sleep and
then a stimulant to stay awake. The home, the safest
place in the world, is being invaded by the Madison
Avenue body snatchers.
But they haven't conquered yet! There are two ways
leave the room,
you've beaten the

The second is to concentrate on the
commercials and analyze them into th

yourself, “OK, what do they want me to buy now?" If

by C8, Santino
You've seen “Blazing Saddles”
and "Young. Frankenstein.” You
may have even seen “The Producers
or “The ‘Twelve Chairs." Very funny
movies (though not without their
faults).
Pick the lamest, unfunniest seone
you can think of Irom any of those
movies the quicksind bit from
Blazing Saddles” ortheopening ten
minutes of “The Producers," for in=
stance, Now set it in Sherwood
Forest, stretch it out to a full half
hour, sprinkle liberally with com
mercials, tack on a ktugh track, and
the result iy *When Things Were
Rotten,” the new Mel Brool
inspired television flop,
Rotten,” which premiered last
Wednesday, is Mel Brooks’ first
television effort since “Get Smart.”
After “Get Smart,” Brooks
successfully mude the jump from
television to the movies, reaching his
peak with “Young. Frankenstein.”
On the rebound, Brooks has
stumbled over his Raisinettes and
fallen on his face. His new show is so
strained, so silly, so pedestrien, that
only people who laugh at cream pie
flinging and banana peel pratfalls
could enjoy it
Robin Hood and his merry men
are the vehicles’ this time around,
show, created and co-written by
Brooks, takes every opportunity to
pass up the good jokes and use only
the bad ones. (Robin Hood, by the
way, is played by Dick Gautier, who
is stiffer in this series than he was as
the arthritic robot, Hymie, in “Get
”) Here’s a sampling of the
kind of humor that Brooks will be
clouting us with in the long weeks to
come—The sheriff of Nottingham
announees to the peasants that the
King is repossessing their land, The
peasants (a hundred oF so), in un
ison, chant “Uh-oh.” ‘The sherifl
shouts, “Hold your tongues!
tain, stick their tong
mouths, grasping them between
their thumbs and index fingers.
Brooks must be commended on
his technical virtuousity here~
xrabbing one's tongue is not the
easiest thingin the world to do, Try it
yoursell
Vhe “Robin Hood” theme i:
nothing more than an excuse to b:
juvenite, Ut the show would emplo:
the sitirie poking of the Brook
films, then it might get some laughs
When the show does mock the
swashbuckling genre, still, the effort
iy lantastic; for example, Robin, in
fone scene, having been disarmed
shouts to his men, “A sword, lads!
The camera remains focused ot
Robin as he is inundated by a showe!
of rapiers.
“Rotten” 's humor, more an
noying than “Bat best, fall
into five basic categories: a) the
group responsein unison joke (asex-
lained above), b) the ethnic joke
Renaldo, a merry man with a
Puerto Rican accent. c) the food jok
(a Brooks fyvorite). eg.—among the
dungeon “tortures is eating
asparagus, d) the anachronous song,
— prisoners break into “Get Hap:
py."¢) the horse joke, a la “Saddles,”
“Frankenstein” (too stupid to
dewil),
Almost all the gags fall into thes:
five categories and the ones thai
don't are even dumber. In addition
all the jokes, a,b,¢,d,c, or whatever
are shouted at full volume by the ac
tors, who must believe that we're stil
laughing so hard from Brook
movies that we can't hear whi
they're saying. This is comedy?

Unfortunately for lovers of the genre, fantasy does not seem to attract
nearly as many good writers as do the technological and/or socially relevant
types of SF. After the Tolkien boom, publishers reissued most of the classic
works of fantasy —few authors even tried to produce new material. Most who
did turned out hackwork or worse, as evidenced by the Blade series or the
novels of Lin Carter
But in the past few years, the books of Katherine Kurtz's Deryni trilogy,
Deryni Rising, Deryni Checkmate, and High Deryni, have won this new
Writer much praise and have caused her to be compared with the (mostly
deceased) great names of fantasy.
Kurtz does not use science fiction to investigate the con -
dition of woman, Rather, she writes “pure” fantasy, having practically no
connection with modern issues, Kurtz's womanhood is strictly incidental to
her writing.
The first task of agus J fantasy writer is creating the proper mood, causing
readers to “suspend disbelief.” Kurt falters in this aim a few times by
terms that are too modern. References 1o “charisma and “mediation teams”
remind the reader of current politics, not the heroic pseudo-medieval milieu
that is meant to be portrayed.
More damaging isa quirk in her plotting. Heroic fantasy naturally requires
mighty deeds against mighty foes, But at several crucial junctures in her
arrative, Kurtz has her “good guys” win through pure(uck, or through tast-
minute aid from some totally unexpected source, She carefully builds up
tense confrontations, only to ruin them by throwing in a new factor that
destroys all tension. Thisis particularly true of the climatic scene of the whole
trilogy, which thus ends on a fat note.
Yet in spite of her faults, Kurtz is a worthy descendant of the great names
of fantasy. Her own special writing strength is precisely the quality which is
most important (0 a good fantasy novel: she can construct a believable world,
She makes her job somewhat simpler by drawing on medieval Wales for
much of her background, as Tolkien drew on many sources (Norse sagas,
ete.) for his own Middle Earth.
But even so, she cando what ny writersare unable to do. By presesnting
an effortless Now of vividly depicted scenes, she makes her world come alive.
There is never the fatal sense of artificiality. The author seems to be repor-

A Deep Sea Treasure
In recent years underwater
archaeology has come into its ownas
a recognized academic speciality. It
has an air of excitement and adven-
ture about it, and some ofits findings
have been: spectacular. But even
before the advent of underwater
archaeology the sea occasionally
ielded some of the vast treasure of
antiquity that it must hold.
Cape Artemisium, on the
northern end of the island of Eu-
boa, is famous fortwo things. Here,
in 480 B.C., the Greek and Persian
navies fought each oth

National Museum of Athens; the cir-
cumstances are rather unusual,
In April, 1926, some Greek
fishermen, plying their trade in the
Bay of Artemisium, got their nets
fouled, Diving to the bottom of the
bay they found their nets tangled up
in a bronze statue, When they were
unable to dislodge the entire statue
they broke off one arm. just (o prove
their story, and took it triumphantly
to their island of Skiathos nearby,
More than two years later, in
September, 1928, some sponge
divers raised the rest of the statue
Only then did government

or Poseidon balancing his trident.
The statue itvan extraordinarily fine
example of Greek sculpture in the
Early Classical, or severe style and
can be dated to about 460 B.C.
Traces of the earlier archaic style are
to be seen in the stylized treatment of
the hair, The eyes, now hollow, were
‘once inset with semi-precious stones,
as was often done in Greek bronze
casting.

This Weekend: Warhol's ‘Frankenstein’
by Eddie Rader
If you're the kind of person who gets off on blood and
gui, especially guts, then you'll love Andy Warhol's
“Frankenstein.” Nobody gets off on guts quite as much
as this Dr. Frankenstein does, except maybe his assis-
tant, If, however, you were hoping to see an interesti
new version of the great old story, forget it. Any
resemblance between thismovieand the 1931 classic is
purely inthe title, [don’t think anyone in this movie has
even heard of the book
What Paul Morrissey has written and directed, and
Andy Warhol produced, isa perversely funny, perverse- The
ly sexy film that is sometimes simply gross, This time
around, Dr. Frankenstein is no victim of circumstances,
frustrated wife is interested in what the big guy can do
for her,
Somewhere along the line enters the hero—played by
Warhol's faverite star Joe Delasandro, the most boring
and untalented good physique ever to appear on the
sereen, He comes into the castle looking for his best
Iriend’s head, which had been sheared off and plopped
on top of the monster, By the time he leaves, he's sedue~
ed the wife, run the doctor through, and fallen victim to
two creepy kids who have been skulking about the
whole time, +

and they are pretty friendly and informal. We
discuss and plan activities, and share our feel-
ing about what it means to be gay, and indeed,
‘what it means to be a personin this world, We
talk about where we've been, where we're go-
‘ing, and what we can learn, We share alot-
‘come share it with us.
We also invite you to share with us your

response, leave your name and telephone

To the Eaor:
The undersigned history professors fromin-
stitutions outside New York State happened
to be visiting Albany on Friday, September
12,, and we must ssay that we were appalled at
“the judgments expressed on your. editorial
page, One of us_knew Dean Hunsbérger when
he was at the University of-Madsachusetts,
before he came to Albany. All of ur'know
Dean Kendall. Having had the opportunity of.
conferring with Dean Kendall, we are in a
position to assure you that he is deeply in-
terested in students and teaching, as well as
scholarship (as if there could be a contradic~
tion of purposes). We feel confident that the
commentaries about Deans Hunsberger and
Kendall are completley off the mark. Further-
more, we would like to point out that rudeness
“in editorials in no proper way tomakeany sort

A Void to the Wise
To the Editor:
I rarely happens that 1 become so offended,
so outraged, so inflamed to the very linits of
my being, that 1am compelled to get out of my
chair, Such an occasion actually arose a few
days ago, the details of which I shall now
recount.
1 was in the process of rolling a few jointsof
some new dope using the latest issue of the
ASP as a working surface, asis my practice.
Doing so, my gaze wandered mindlessly over
the page before meand eventually came to rest
ip on a article by Harvey Kojan entitled,
“Conversation Piece.” Perhaps it was the
novelty ofcomprehension,or a nascent particle
of curiosity which drove me to read on.
Neverthless, my brief affair with the written
word, which { embarked upon armed with
only the best of intentions was rewarded not
with instruction and entertainment, but in-
stead horror and, revulsion,
Mr. Kojan as you may know posits six basic
areas of conversationamong the inhabitants of
this veneral institution: sex, drugs, food,
grades, weather, and vacations. Hefurtherim-
ues these subjects with the properties of
boredom and familiarity, and concludes his
diatribe with a cynical admonition promising
us at least a lifetime of stagnation should we
persist in exploiting this’ stunted topical
Vocabulary.
It is not Mr. Kojan's categorizations with
Which I dispute, but rather his indictment of
what I say, and should the day come, what I
think. If for example { choose to talk in-
cessantly about Bruce Springsteen, whose
third album by the way is his most innovative
and technically perfect work, though my
favorite song is still “Sandy”, should I be
chastised by some leprotic blasphemer — &
studyhall Savanarola?
Had Mr. Kojan- allotted a little more
thought to his exposition rather than, in his
frantic quest for notoriety having rushed it to
print — had he not typed and submitted it
before the ink was dry, before he'd even
dotted his t's and crossed his i's, he would have
realized that the very rationale for six such
prosaic topics renders his postition absurdly
untenable.
Harvey (If 1 may be so bold , you may call
me Norm) naturally abhors the intellectual
vacuity of SUNYA lifeas demonstrated by the
phattic ocean in which we flourish Though
am sure we cannot help but admire his con-
cem, I speak for all of us when I answer him
with an unequivocal “So what!”. I defy you
Harvey Kojan to respond convincingly to any
of the followint questions and display to me
the folly of my ways,
Why should | either seek or desire to learn
anything not recompensed with credit towards
my graduation, or read anything not assigned
me by some professor? (And none of that
“Joy” of knowledge stuff, Please!) Why
should | be inspired within the framework of
the university when even ‘my teachers are
seldom educated beyond the rigid confines of
their own fields? Why should | engage in any
productive endeavor when eyen the most
evanescent glow of creativity is summarily
doomed to extinction by my good ol’ buddies
and pals? And finally, why should I not be a
willing pawn of the credos and conventions of
an arbitrary age, swaying with the tides of
fashion and bowing to the desultory dictates
of a misguided majority when clearly the
alternative spells hardship (Surely you jest?),
self examination (Not for mel), ultimate
failure (I'm no martyr.) and perhaps, should
conditions grow absolutley intolerable, “rank
outs” (Oh dread)? Or so lam told.
Therefore it is with small regret that I sur-
render myself to assimilation by that immense,
implacable mass: The Greatest Common
Denominator.
You see Harv, you cannot win. You are
‘a lone whisper whose message islostwithin the
cold gray walls of our cavernous,
skull... Take my advice noble warri
‘up your tapes and tables, reascend your ivory
‘soap tower and forever wash your hands of
sermonizing, for We are happy and it is you
who is sad. Bother not to save our lives, go in-
stead resolutely about your own business and
save your breath.

To the Editor:
‘On Friday, July 25, 1975, after a long hart
day of studying, I had very high hopes of going
out and having an enjoyable evening. Some
friends asked me if 1 would like to go to the
Varsity Inn in Colonie. My reply was “sure, !
could use some excitement!”
Upon our arrival, we were stopped at the
door and our I.D.'s were checked presumably
for age. After my friends’ 1.D.’s were ap-
proved, they paid the admission fee and began
ed and I was detainedfor some very vague and
absurd reason, Obviously I know it couldn't
have been age, because my date of birth
appeared on my out-of-state ILD. along with
my photo and social security number. Later |
was told by one of the managers to present
some New York identification. | responded by
card, I was told to step aside and wait, as the
other patrons passed through. This was very
annoying as well as embarassing. The
manager was very obnoxious and said that |
wouldn't be admitted that night,
It is my opinion that | was discriminated
‘against very unfairly and unjustly. Mainly.
because | am an out-of-state resident, and
maybe because of my race, since he gave me no
reason to believe otherwise.
1 feel very strongly that the manager that
night definitely owes mean apology for his un-
just and rude behavior. He also owes my
friends an apology for hesitating to return our
money after this incident.
1am new to New York state and Albany
and when [eave, Iwilltell of the unfor-
tunate incident 1 encountered here.

Rockefeller:
Trying to Crap the Crappers
When Vice President Nelson Rockefeller
Visited Mobile, Alabama and Columbia.
South Carolina recently to blast welfare
cheats, deplore thedemise of States’ rights and
laud to merits of balanced budgets. there was
so much winking going on you'd have thought
the man was surrounded by a swarm of gnats.
Rockefeller sounded so conservative that
Gov. George C. Wallace was moved to wonder
aloud whether his speech might have been
written in Alabama.
When news of his speeches reached
York, where people know Rocky's lavish
spending nearly bankrupted the state,
laughing epidemic spread from Manhattan's
lower East Side clear up to Butfalo.
Southerners are more discreet. They'll give
4 hot meal to any stranger in need, and they'll
even listen politely when he talks drivel. It's
after he leaves they do the laughing.
Rockefeller would do well to heed the ad-
vice 1o crook-turned-politician Willy Brock, a
character in Garson Kanin's award-winning
play “Born Yesterday.” “Never crap a
crapper,” Willy admonishes
by Ron Hendren*
Rockefeller is a rich man whose hard-nose
barguining uround boardroom conference
tables and in Albany's political back rooms
hay earned him a reputation as a hard-ball
player, but when he goes south to compare
himself with the likes of Wallace and South
Carolina's Republican senatorial institution,
Strom Thurmond, he is launching intoa futile
ellort to crap the world'schampion crappers.
The most Iruitful outcome he can hope for is
that his real friends will be kind enough not to
take him seriously
“An objective analyst of Nelson
Rockefeller’s problem in holding on to the
View Presidency would adhere to a few simple
beatitudes known well throughout the Bible
Belt
Blessed is the liberal who does not attempt
to tackle Ronald Reagan in South Carolina,
for he shall obtain mercy
Blessed is the Vice President who turns to
his real friends in time of need, for he might
obtain the help he seeks.
Blessed is the man who realizes that in the
real showdown against the Democrats, his
fhoss needs him more than he needs his Boss,
for he shall succeed in siting at the right hand
of the President
Blessed is the man who does not appear to
want too badly that which he has no real
reason to care much about anyway, for he may
be able to stay on the ticket
In short, the Vice President and his advisers
should remember that there isa time for just
about every purpose. A time to laugh and ery
‘and embrace and refrain from embracing and
even a time to punt
faut tere is never a time to crap crapper.
editorial / comment
| Pruning Professors
During the past five years, student concem has shifted from the ideological,
worldwide and general to the economic, personal and specific. Partly due to financial
insecurity and partly due to improved political conditions on campus, the change has
meant that successful excercise of student power has occurred most often in issues
directly affecting students. Thus, issues like rents, board rates, bus service and tenure
cases have increased importance.
Tenure cases affect the fundamental reason students are on campus: Education. A
good professor, from the student standpoint, isable to communicate information with
efficiency, clarity and ina manner that makes material morea learning experience than
something akin to remembering telephone numbers. There are other reasons to be at
college, of course, but "students who, for example, feel that grades are the only
reasons to come can still be inspired,
Many administrators and faculty have taken the position that students have little or
no business influencing tenure decisions. Asa result, students have noclear channel to
use in making their feelings known. Demonstrations, letters, this newspaper and sit-ins
have all been used at SUNYA to express student opinion,
The arguements against student participation in tenure decisions are silly; the vital
interest faculty and administrators must take in job security and conditions in their
department color their judgment, and students without vested interests add significant
perspective at least to the kind of teaching a professor is doing.
But students have been denied a vote on tenure cases. If their voice is heard during
the various stages of the tenure process and if that voice carries weight, a vote is not
sential, But some departments at SUNY A make little use of the teaching evaluation
material they have and, more importantly, do not attempt to it prove it.
President Fields will have some difficult tenure decisions this year — nothing un-
usual. His task is doubly hard because the faculty is no longer increasing in numbers,
and thus the ranks of those tenured cannot grow. A healthy university must attract and
keep quality professors and this involves constant pruning of thé téaching staff, Fields
understands the situation here. He has pointed out that relative to theacademic quality
of students here, the faculty is deficient, He has given high priority to bringing the
faculty up to a level more appropriate for SUNY A's student body. In doing so, we hope
Dr, Fields will not underestimate the importance of good teaching.
On Borrowed Time
Whether New York City is to blame for its own crisis because of mismanagement
and overly generous spending, or the banks are at fault for pushing interest rates
beyond what the risk would justify over the years, the city is in trouble. And with the
State's new plan, the state and the banks may be in trouble too.
It is essential that the new seven-man board controlling New York City’s finances
succeed in straightening them out. If they fail, the State will have simply delayed
default at a tremendous cost.
The banks are trying to sell the various bonds, but most will remain with them, The
major risk-takers under the new aid plan will be the banks and the state, whose funds
are being tapped for loans, including the state's employee pension funds. The state is
indeed taking a chance, since default is still likely in December. The probability that the
city will at least be credit-worthy by then is low.
Default means the Federal Reserve Board would have to shore up the city banks,
resulting in inflationary, nationwide increases in interest rates. The State would be in
some trouble, though the MAC-proposed plan passed earlier this week includes setting
up a legal process to handle default, expected to protect the state as much as possible,
The city’s last chance runs from now until December. If it can handle the money flow
by then, it may be safe, Otherwise, huge amounts of money will have been wasted on
obtaining a few extra months.

were rejected for on campushousing. Why are
we forced into such a desparate plan? Is there
any other alternative? A review of the situa-
tion is necessary.
‘After two years of servere overcrowding,
Albany State is starting the semester with
less __ of this overpopulation in the dorms.
‘The Housing office, however, succeeded in
that goal by merely denying requests to about
400 students for on camp'ss accomodations.
Half were thrown into a decaying hotel
located thirty minutes from campus, while the
other half were simply thrown. At the same
time Mohawk Tower, a structure designed to
house 400 students, remains devoid of any.
‘This is heralded asa victory by well meaning
administrators. A victory for whom? The

Ido not mean to downplay the importance
of the faculty or their needs, but those needs
must not be met at the disproportionate ex-

There is space for 438 bedsin the Tower. In-
cluding the necessary staff rooms, this number
almost equals the current demand for ad-
ditional on campus housing. But what about
those faculty members now residing in
Mohawk?
‘The displaced faculty members could either
be doubled up in the single offices on the
Academic Podium (doubling faculty can't be
that bad, after all, students are tripled) or else
they could be relocated at the Draper and
downtown campuses where space is opening

$137,000 in required rent paid to the New

Once students moved into the Tower, their
rents would cover this cost while the alter-

“Do you flaunt your homosexuality?"
“Well, if by ‘flaunting it,’ you mean do I
make public statements about my sexuality,
yes, I do flaunt it, and until I can feel free to
walk down the street holding hands with my
lover, until 1 can join in conversations about
spouses and lovers and not change the pro-
‘noun, | will continueto, as you say'launt it.’ "
—from a conversation at a Gay Alliance
meeting
The irony of the above dialogue is that in
reality, flaunting it is in the mind of the
beholder. Usually, gays who are accused of
flaunting it are displaying their sexuality less
overtly than straights. Our behavior merely
stimulates more response in the viewer and to
avoid dealing with those feelings, the viewer
passes judgement (and the buck) back to the
gay person, And so, if we hold dances or show
affection in any public way, weare accused of
flaunting it, When these activities are per-
formed by heterosexual couples, how many
are judged as flaunting seir sexuality.
Flaunt, Webster defines it as “making «
kauidy, ostentatious, conspicuous, impudent
or defiant display, as brazen wom
won't comment on the brazenly sexist e
ple.) Well, really thei

value judgements that say a lot
bout the judger than the judgee. Ac-
tually, the a ion that a gay is Naunting
her/ his gayness says a lot about the personal
discomfort of the observer, And there is a lot
of that discomfort out there (and among us,
too.)
In short, gays are “different.” But our
behavior stands out, not because of what we
and
do, but with whom g
strnights marry every week in this country and
all it does is make the society section; one gay
‘couple gets married, and not only does it make
the front pages, but some fool tries to marry
his mule the next day in protest (We wonder
{just Who the assin that partnership really was.)
All that commotion just because two people
love each other.
If you think about it, the level to wk

Despite losing, Coach, Bob
Muisey:felt that his Cross-country
team’s performance against a very
strong Boston State team. was
“satisfying.”
“We ran into a real good team
(Boston State's coach Bill Squires
felt it was the, best team he'd ever
had) with the potential to really blow
lus out, but we hung in and kept it
tight,” said Munsey.
‘One of the bright spots for Albany
was the performance of freshman
Keith Benman who was named the
Albany runner of the meet. Benman
finished sixth and his time of 26
minutes, 31 seconds was the 18th
best by a Albany runner on the
Dane's five-mile course,’
“Berman did an outstanding job
for a freshman in his first five-mile
meet,” said Munsey. “He passed four
guys on hills and was surrounded by
the opposition most of the race, He
will definitely be heard from in the
fuure,
Captains Carlo Cherubino and
Chris Burns both looked very strong
taking second and third places.
Cherubino’s time of 25:30 was the
22nd best ever run on the Albany
course and Munsey said that
Cherubino and Burns are “looking
better than ever.”
Boston State's Mark Duggin, a
two-mile N.C..A.A, steeplechase
champion, finished first with the
Wwenty-first best time ever run here,

Danes Bite Saxons, 19-13
’ Griffin Named Player Of The Week
by Craig Bell
The Albany Great Dane football
team survived @ fast minute scare
and went on to defeat the Alfred
Saxons 19-13 Saturday at Alfred
Junction.
Ranked number six in the nation,
the Danes have now won thirteen
games in a row, and go up against
number one Whaca Saturday at |
p.m.
The Danes scored first, and look
ed as if they might blow the game
open easily. Alfred received the
opening kickoff, but the Albany
defense held tight. and the Danesob-
tained possesion of the ball on the
Saxons'34 yard line the second time
they had the ball. Five plays later,
Orin Griffin. swept the right side for
seven yards and a touchdown, Al
Martin converted and the Danes led
14,
Griffin was named the ECAC
player of the week, a reward for his
fine effort. “Griff rushed for 125
yards in 17 carries and punted six
times for an average of 33 yards in-
cluding one that was blocked.
Albany's defense continued to
shine and gave the ball to the offense
in good field position time and time
again
Alfred's Steve Lasher, though,
jed he would keep Alfred in the
game, single-landedly if he had to.
The big defensive end burst through
the State line and deflected a Bertuz~
41 piteh midway through the first
quarter and Alfred took over on the
State eight yard line,
Dave Madigan ran it in from one
yard out and the score was knotted
at seven after the first quarter.
The 1wo defenses continued to
slug it out in the second quarter.
Each time it looked like Albany was
about to score, the Alfred defense
made the big play
Once again it was Steve Lasher
bursting through the line to smack
away a Bertuzzi pitch and set up the
28 yard field gout by Alfred's Mark
Madigan that sent the Saxons into
the lockerroom, leading 10-7

Pres Candidate Harris Advocates
Diffusion of Power in Government
by Ed Moser
Last Saturday Presidential can-
didate Fred Harris gavea speech in
downtown Albany's Chaney Hall,
In an attempt to raise support forhis
bid in next year's New York
Democratic primary campaign, the
“Populist” former senator from
Oklahoma told some seventy
enthusiastic onlookers where he
thought America should be heading.
Harris said his candidacy is based
on two main principles; first, that
“people are smart enough to govern
themselves.” Harris attacked
America’s support for undemocratic
dictators and the resulting loss of
respect for the U.S. abroad, “After
World War It everyone (inthe
world) wanted to be like us. It's just
not like that anymore.” He com-
pared the U.S. of today to Metter:
nich’s nineteenth century Austria,
which supported the conservative
world status quo, and then he linked
abuse of power overseas to corrup-
tion at home: “If you feel..you can
do anything you please about
national security outside your own
shores, then it becomes easy to do
the same here in this country.”
The candidate's second principle
calls for 9 “widespread diffusion of
political and economic pow
Harris listed a number of cone
ceonomie measures he'd support to
accomplish this goal, These include:
1) strict enforcement of anti-trust
laws
2) “a graduated income tax, not
graduated tax loopholes.”
3) a further tax cut of some $15
billion.
4) creation of a publiccorporation
(hke the TVA.") Lo develop oil and
ils reserves
5) a limitation on the production
of cars to only those getting over
(wenty mile per gallon af gas.
Most of these ideas, far from
radical, come out of precedents o
eisting concepts. Harris admitted
as much when he said, “We need
only put into practice what we say we
believe in.”
The former senator came down
hard on the i
randomly unemployed so that prices
will fall” Instead of fighting infla-
& massive jobs program
should be started to provide work.
(The inflation resulting from such an
increase in the work force, went
Harris’ argument, would be offset
by competitively induced price cuts
caused by Hat ‘enforcement of the
anti-trust laws.) The Oklahoman
added that he believes much of New
York City’s current woes stem from
increased unemployment, which
means less city tax revenue (and
more welfare costs) ata time when
prices are skyrocketing.
Harris thinks that his unique
brand of populism willavoid George
McGovern’s ation in 1972 of the
working class "Wallace people.”
George Wallace and his followers
have no love for the present ad-
ministration, went Harris, for it is
they-who “are overtaxed by govern-
nent, laid off in lange numbers....ad
got their boys killed in Vietnam...”
The Wallacitesareshortchanged on
their image,” stated Harris, “They're
called rascist and jingoist, although
it is the culing elite who are really

audience, Harris humourously put
down some so-called myths of
yestions from the
American politics, He termed as
just so much talk," the image of the
Democratic Party waring itsell to
pieces every four years, “We (The
Js) haven gone past the se
allot at a convention in thirty
years.” He also joked about the
‘Great Mentioner.’ Supposedly for
an unknown (0 be considered
seriously for the Presidency,
“newspaper items must appear such
as ‘Fred Harris has been prominent
ly mentioned among the possible
candidates for President next
year.”
Fred Harris’ political strategy
seems very much akin to that of
George MeGovern’s in 1972, Forthe
past few months he's toured the
country, speaking ( youngish,
liberal audiences of the ty pe who are
likely to volunteer to work actively
n grass-roots campaign
organizations. Such people would be
invaluable in the innumerable
primaries which Harris plans to
enter.
One young ‘reformer’, after the
meeting had broken: up, expressed
fears that upon. his nomination,
Harris will lean” McGovern:
towards the” political center. In-
terestingly, what Harris said about
the CIA may give backing to that
misgiving. “Dismantle it,” said
Harris upon being questioned about
what he'd do about the intelligence
ney. That was quite a radical
sounding statement, which he fuzzed
however by suggesting that the
various functions of the CIA be
merely transferred to other areas
(you might switch the electronic
surveillance to the Defense Depart-
ment”, ¢.g.J. Thus Harris may be
suspected of sounding more liberal
than he actually is, perhaps in order
to attract that activist support we
mentioned above.
Populist Fred Harris
‘Zuckerman Still in Dark
Over Research Grievance _
fact-finding, telephoning and
waiting, chemistry professor Jerold
Zuckerman is still in the dark as to
whether ot not his grievance against
SUNY Research Foundation ix
being seriously considered.
Zuckerman has mised several
questions about the legality of a new
nt waiver and releaseform being
circulated by the Foundation. The
form was release at the beginning of
August and was described by its
creators as a simpler, less
bureaucratic version of past release
ion, in order to in-
ion of patent rights
search sponsors, requires that
some sort of formal patent agree-
ment be signed by all individuals
working under grunts within the
SUNY system,
But Zuckerman claims the new
agreement goes too fur, He says it
threatens his academic freedom and
has been unsuccessfully seeking
clarification of certain significant
phrases in it for the past month,
“I'm tired of this and 1 wish it
would go away,” said Zuckerman,
sitting in his office amongst a pile of
forms. fetters and documents,
“Maybe they wish I would go away
and think I will." he continued,
referring to the Research Founda-
tion, “If they do, they're making a
mistake
Zuckerman’s grievance deals
mainly with the section that compels
all those who sign the form not to
“disclose any information
relating to. . . discoveries or inven~
tions to others, without the written
approval of the Foundation.” Ac-
cording to Zuckerman, this contlicts
with the SUNY Board of Trustees
Policy which guarantees
“unrestricted dissemination
of the conduct, progress. and
resdits of |... research."
‘One person who concurs With
Zuckerman's interpretation of the”
agreement is Steven Ney, attorney
for the American Association of Un-
iversity Professors. He outlines his
‘own reading of the form ina lettet to.
Zuckerman dated August 28,
According to Ney. “u plausible
reading of the language. . .isthatit
appears to require a faculty member
to refrain from disclosing to all
‘others’ qny information relating toa
discovery unless he has received the
+s ipproval of the Research Fauih=
dation
Ney suggests thata clarification be
made of the language in the agree-
ment since. in its present form, it
may constitute an infringement
upon protected areas of academic
conduct.”
President intervenes
President Fields intervened per-
sonally in the matter just hours
belore Zuckerman was to have
presented a resolution condemning
the agreement at the first full faculty
meeting of the year on August 26
Zuckerman agreed aot to present the
resolution, with the understanding
that Fields would discuss the subject
with the SUNY Central Administra-
tion while he pursued the formal
grievance procedure outlined by the
Foundation
Since then, Zuckerman has been
trying to get a formal hearing with
Foundation Director Mort Grant
In accordance with the grievance
guidelines, Zuckerman wroted letter
to Grant on August 29 requesting
this hearing. So far. Grant has not
responded, even though the
guidelines require that an answer be
given within five days,
“Is he going ta fallow his own
procedure?” asked Zuckerman, “I'd
like « know.” Phone calls to Grant
were relerted to his: lawyer, who
could not be reached for comment,
