Dr. King Scholarship
To Aid Disadvantaged
by Barb Grossman
The Ad Hoc Committee .or
the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King
Jr., has advanced the hope to
raise up to $25,000 in King’s
name to help the underprivileg-
ed.
To demonstrate united con-
cern for one of America’s most
pressing problems (America’s
poor and their plight), and to
help the disadvantaged, the theme
of the fund raising drive and
the subsequent scholarships will
be to honor King and his ideals,
In a meeting held last week,
Tom Lynch, graduate teaching
assistant and chairmanof the new
Scholarship Committee stated:
“Our demonstration (the fund
drive) is designed to influence
people by (1) action, and (2)
results,”
“Action, in this campaign is
getting as many people as pos-
sible involved to show the depth
of our joint committment, ‘Re-
sults,’ in this campaign, is get-
ting the largest sum of money
possible,’””
Acquiring money for the fund
will be mainly a university ef-
fort, Four university groups, fac-
ulty, students, personnel, and al-
umni, will be solicited for funds.
Many faculty members have
considered pledging as much as
10 per cent of one month’s sal-
ary tothe fund, The minimum
needed from the undergraduates
alone is $5,000, and for the total
scholarship, $10,000, but it is
hoped that the total will reach
far above the minimum amount,
Hopefully, the fund will be in
effect by next fall, or as soon
as possible, It will be a con-
tinuing memorial with scholar-
ships created from the interest
while the principle will remain
intact.
Solicitation of funds from stu-
dents and student groups will
be under way very soon, About
150 people are needed to con-
tact students on a door-to-door
basis,
Those in charge of the cam-
paign are:students, Jeff Mish-
kin; graduate students, Lew
Livermore, Tom. Lickona, and
Mr.
Knotts,

John Gunnell, Neil
Brown, Donald Whitlock and

Brinkley of NBC News
To Speak At Inaugurations
by Tim Keeley
Staff Reporter
David Brinkley of NBC News
will be the guest speaker this
Sunday at the inauguration of
the new LAAC and Central Coun-
cil at 2 p.m, in the gymnasi-
um,
“One thing I try to do,’?
says David Brinkley, explaining
his newscasting philosophy, ‘is
to write scripts with the ut-
most simplicity and clarity, If
a line or two of background is
needed first to have the main
element of a story make bet-
ter sense, I put it in, then get
to the ‘lead’ a little later.”
Such an approach works in
television journalism, as the
success of ‘The Huntley -Brink-
ley Report”? on NBC-TV proves,
but Brinkley’s reporting skill
grew out of years of experience
as a newspaper reporter,
In addition to many broad-
casting honors, Brinkley was
chosen for the 1964 Golden Key
Award by six leading educational
organizations for his significant
contributions to the national wel-
fare,
President Lyndon B, Johnson
appointed him a member of the
National Council on the Arts,
Brinkley and his New York-
based colleague, Chet Huntley,
both entered journalism early
in life and worked their separ-
ate ways up until they met at
NBC News in Washington,

eidents as the time he was cov-
ering a candidate in the 1964

by Ira Wolfman
Staff Reporter
“Aren’t we all guilty of gen-
ocide by implication?” Dr, Hugo
Bedau, one of 30 speakers at
the teach-in held here Thursday
and Friday, April 25 and 26,
questioned his audience. The guilt
of the American people was one
of the many topics aired at the
teach-in,
Drawing speakers from
schools such as Tufts University,
Harvard, Princeton, RPI, and
Buffalo State, the teach-in reach-
ed over 800 students, accord-
ing to estimates by teach-inlead-
ers.
Mary Ann McNaughton of the

tions concerning the voyage’s le-
gality and her current status with
the government,
Following that, Prof, Hugo Be-
dau, professor of Philosophy at
Tufts, discussed the War Crimes
Tribunals held last year, He ad-
mitted to those present that he
had no special knowledge of the
Tribunal’s work — simply what
he had read in four sources,
including ‘‘War Crimes in Viet-
nam,” by Bertrand Russell, and
an article in the February issue
of Ramparts magazine written
by Jean Paul Sartre (which ac-
cused the United States of gen-
ocide in Vietnam),
Richard Mumma, a chaplain
at Harvard, on the “Problems
of Conscience in Relations to
the War’ stated that ‘dissent is
not a privilege or right — it
is a duty!’”
Richard Neustadt, junior at
Harvard, and a supporter of Rob-
ert F, Kennedy for President,
offered his ideas on how change
could be brought about by work-
ing in what he termed ‘the
system,’?
At the evening session, Gordon
Rhodes Jr., who refused induc-
tion into the Army this past
February, discussed his ac-
tion with the students present,
Rhodes cited the 13th’ amend-
ment to the Constitution, which
prohibits ‘involuntary slavery”?
as a basis for his opposition to
the draft.

Makes War Comments
President Evan R, Collins dis-
cussed the Teach-In, the war in
Viet Nam and related issues at
Monday’s President’s Confer-
ence with Students.
A crowd of over 80 students
packed the Patroon Lounge, to
hear President Evan R, Collins’
comments on the teach-in, Viet~
nam War and related issues last
Monday afternoon.
Collins lauded the Teach-In by
commenting, ‘*It was well organ-
ized and effectively run,”
When asked why he didn’t speak
at the event, he declared, ‘‘Look-
ing back now in retrospect I would
have spoken, but last Monday
when I made my decision the is-
sue was too confused,’”
A student then interjected, «I

this statement a round of ap-
plause Went up among many of
the students present.
Next a question was raisedover
intimidation created by profes-
sors who counted absenses on
Thursday and Friday as double
cuts.
“This action would indicate
that some instructors made the
choice for students of whether
or not they should attend the
teach-in,” quipped one student.
This student also asked what
President Collins would do if a
student had to drop a class be-
cause ofabsenses stemming from
the teach-in,
“I would try sweet reason with
the professor to get you back in,’”
Collins said, ‘This is all I can
do.”
The topic then shifted into the
war in Viet Nam. During the
course of the discussion Collins
expressed his personal convic-
tions about the wars
“I feel we have made errors in
judgment that have caused us to
become deeply involved,’’ Col-
lins remarked seriously, ‘‘Pres-
ently our position is morally and
politically indefensive,’’
He further advocated that we
should “pull out’ without losing:
face.
Collins was then confronted
with a petition signed by over
800 students that advocated a
course in social problems,

_ ers and dialogue offering various viewpoints on the present war:

Teach-In, Athletics
Topic Of Conference
At the President’s Conference
with students on Monday April 22,
President Evan R, Collins dis-
cussed a proposal before the
Board of Trustees, the scheduled
Teach-in, and a report on Athle-
tics,
Collins announced a proposal
that is currently before the Trus-
tees of the State University. The
Proposal favors a mandatory stu-
dent tax to be levied on all cam-
puses of the State University.
The amount of the tax, how-
ever, would be decided upon by
each campus. The funds would
then remain on campus for stu-
dent activities.
At present student tax is vol-
untary. Under this system stu-
dent governments are faced with
hazy budgets, not knowing how
many students will subscribe to
student tax.
A student present, represent-
ing a group participating in the
teach-in that was scheduled for
April 25 and 26, extended a per-
sonal invitation to Collins to at-
tend,
“I shall not accept on two
counts,’ refused Collins, ‘I’m
pretty busy and the difference be-
tween the strike and the teach-in
Would be confused by outside
groups.”?
‘Because we are in Albany,
we are like bugs under a micro-
Scope,’’ Collins declared,
This was in reference to ace
tion taken by state legislators
whenever the University hits the
news.
Collins then revealéa a report
on future plans for increasing
the athletic status of the Univer-
sity.
Collins remarked that ‘‘sev-
eral copies of this report will be
on reserve in the library.” He
then read a few selections.
When asked to comment per-
sonally on the report, he hesi-
tantly said, ‘*I believe the report
is thorough and complete; if that
is sufficiently evasive.’’
President Collins also an-
nounced the appointment of Dr.
Paul F, Wheeler as the third
Associate Dean of the College of
Arts and Sciences.
‘The students present were in-
formed that the 52 students that
demonstrated against Dow had
their day in the Supreme Court.
Their attorney Jonathan Har-
vey, brought the case to court to
ask the University to show cause
why it should exercise control
over students.
Supreme Court Justice T, Paul
Caine ruled that the court should
not intervene in University policy
and dismissed the case.
Harvey stated that the case
would now go on to the Appel-
late Division of the states courts.
“This is only serving as a de-
laying tactic to prevent the Uni-
versity from taking action,” cri-
ticized Collins.
Collins had begun the confer-
ence on a light note by reading a
postcard he had received from
Daytona Beach, Florida.
“*We are having a great time.
Thank you for a much needed va~
cation, Wish you were here.”
The card was signed with the
student numbers of six students,
Student Volunteers Assist
Appalachian Families
Nine University students were
among the volunteers who went
to Appalachia over Spring Re-
cess. They were invited by a lo~
cal welfare department to par-
ticipate in an experimental pro-
gram called the ‘Adopt a Fam-
ily Plan.”
The reason for the girls tray-
eling to Grundy, Virginia, a small
town without industry, was to as-
sist the social workers there in
visiting underpriviledged fami-
lies, Each girl spent many hours
talking to poor whites,
Tt was hoped that by the ex-
change of cultural ideas, the fam-
ilies could learn from the goals
the volunteers had, However, the
students also increased their own
education as a result of the trip.
Father Paul Smith of La Salle
Chapel accompanied the stu-
dents. He was moved by the sim-
Plicity of the lives of the people
on welfare he visited. Comment-
ing on the narrowness of their
goals, he said that their culture
is “, . . pathetic in the sense
that except for the physical work
of the men, there was no other
goal to shoot for.’’
Cindy Gilbertson, a student at
the University, shares similar
views on the predicament of the
low income family she worked
with. She felt that she gained
an insight into the fact that peo.
ple do live in many different life
situations, all of which were quite
Ae her own priviledged posi-
ion,
Cindy also learned that it was
impossible to propose a clear~
cut solution to aid the many poor
and uneducated shack dwellers.
Instead of finding a family with
a definite problem, she encoun-
tered people who struggled with
the many small difficulties that
arise in day-to-day living.
The social worker who brief-
ed the students asked them to
see if there was any
ment” or any desire to c!
the life conditions within the
families they visited. Many of
the volunteers were able to sense
and to help inspire such ‘‘move-
ments,’? =
Volunteers were able to get
leaky floor boards repaired and
install doors on hinges. One
volunteer encouraged a mother
to attend adult education courses
in the fall, Another was success-
ful in convincing a man to apply
for the benefits he was entitled
to under social security.

GOVERNOR ROCKEFELLER decided to decide again
whether he would run for the presidency. Last Tuesday the
Governor announced he would fight forthe national office to

Albany Urban League
Aids Disadvantaged
(Communique) The Urban
League of Albany, a social sery-
ice agency is one of a national
system of Urban Leagues made
up of 88 local affiliates,
The Urban League’s goal is to
equalize opportunities for disad-
vantaged minorities and other
disadvantaged groups, especially
in the areasof. employment, hous-
ing, education and youth incen-
tives, and health and welfare.
The Urban League seeks to
achieve its goal through com-
munity organization and-or social
work methods. That is, it studies
and analyzes facts about the com-
munity to discover problems and
causes, then develops programs
which are designed to give guid-
ance and help to disadvantaged
groups so that they may share
equally the responsibilities and
rewards of citizenship.
Locally, the Urban League,
which began operations in June,
1967, is working actively in Hous-
ing, Employment, Education and
Youth Incentives.
A Housing Workshop, co-spon-
sored by the Fair Housing Com-
mittee of the Y.W.C.A., was held
in January of this year. It was

Collins expressed his concern
for the need and commended the
student for his approach to the
problem.
A student also suggested that
Collins should hold more confer-
ences during the week. To this
Collins remarked, ‘I have been
coming here for more than 50
Mondays. I’ve come half way,
it’s up to students to come the
other half.’?
Collins’ concluding remarks
were, “I thank you for express-
.ing your opinions here today.

up communication lines between
students and administrators.’’

are invited to apply.
In addition to the clerical work,
a limited amount of field work
will be involved. Students able to
work full-time during this per-
jod are preferred, although part-
time workers will also be con-
sidered,
The work is detailed and will
involve the local verification and
coding of street address ranges
in the metropolitan areas of Al-
bany, Schenectady and Troy for
the 1970 Census.
Since this 1970 Census will be
conducted almost exclusively by
mail, it is necessary to obtain
accurate addresses in this sum-
mer research project. The in-
formation obtained from this geo-
graphic coding project will help
facilitate the Bureau of the Cen-

historical sources on native cul-
tures.
One of Fenton’s aims here is
to attract graduate students to
the area of anthropology having

Council Supports Strike,
MYSKANIA Mon
by Vic Looper
Staff Reporter
Central Council approved 15-
4-1 a position statement, which
supported the ‘aims and ideals
of the International Student
Strike held on April 26 against
the War in Vietnam, Racial Op-
pression and the Draft at its
April 25 meeting.
The position introduced by Jay
Silverman stated that ‘*Council
takes the position that any stu-
dent who does not wish to par-
ticipate in the Strike should not
be deprived of the opportunity
for instruction at his regularly
scheduled classes.
James Kahn amended this to
strike out the phrase ‘at his reg-
ularly scheduled classes.’? This
was done to take care of the prob-
lem of whether teachers should
call off classes or not. Kahn felt
that the position as originally in-
troduced would have meant that
teachers couldn’t cancel classes.
He felt that since Council doesn’t
represent the teachers it can’t
tell them what to do.
President Jeffrey Mishkin, the
co-author of the bill emphasized
that Council only supported the
aims and ideals not necessarily
the method. :
Council also gave MYSKANIA
a $400 loan out of next year’s
budget. The money will be used
for a variety of purposes. $100
would be used for a picnic for
the old and new MYSKANIA mem-
bers, $170 would go for printing
costs of the Student Association
Inauguration which will be held
Sunday, May 5 during Explosion
768.
$100 would be used to help es-
tablish a Scholarship Fund in
memory of the Rev. Dr. Marti
Luther King Jr. and $30 would
be used for operating expenses.
This loan was questioned quite
severely, not because it was a
loan on next year’s budget or be-
cause of the amounts asked for
but because of what it was being
used for.
The money for the Scholar-~
ship was also attacked. It was
pointed out that there were three
budgets which were being con-
sidered for funding by the Ad-hoc
Solicitations Committee. These
budgets involve giving SA funds
to charitable groups, The in-
consistencies in giving money al-
lowing MYSKANIA to support a
charitable event and not allow~
ing other groups to do it were
again pointed out.
Jeffrey Mishkin, the Chairman
of MYSKANIA, pointed out that
they were not like any other
group because they were elected
by the entire University and rep-
resented very broad elements.
He pointed out that they were

Funds For Student Aid
Final Meal Plan:
Choices Offered
LAAC met last week and de-
cided that since the ‘tany 14 out
of 20 meal plan” is $280 per
semester and the ‘*20 mealplan’’
is $290 per semester, it would
be more profitable to discard the
former in favor of the latter.
In addition, LAAC has asked
that University Food Service in-
clude the present 14 meal plan.
In compliance Food Service will
ofer these board options:
—A 14 meal plan including
breakfast and dinner Monday
through Saturday, and breakfast
and lunch (noon meal) on Sunday.
($460 per year)
—A 20 meal plan which in-
cludes breakfast, lunch and din-
ner every day except on Sunday
when the dinner meal is served
at noon and no evening meal is
provided ($580 per year).
—A kosher meal option is
available for each of the above
meal plans (a $600. and b $730).
Frozen dinners, labeled with the
Q?-«U”? symbol, signifying cer-
tification as kosher, willbe serv-
ed when standard dinners are
served.
University Food Service pro-
vides the first contract meal for
sall students the morning after
they arrive at their residence
halls.
When vacations and holidays
begin at noon, the last contract
meal served as is breakfast on
that day, When vacations and
holidays begin after the last class
the last contract meal served is
breakfast the following day.
The first contract meal sery-
ed after a vacation or holiday is
breakfast on the day classes re-
sume.
Students are permitted to eat
in any of the contract dining halls
upon presentation of their food
validation card.
Food validation cards are giy-
en on the first day of each month
Cut by Federal Budget
Due to the tightness in the
Federal budget, the amounts
available for student aid pro-
grams are not sufficient to cover
the amounts requested by
colleges and _ universities
throughout the country.
The University applied for Fed-

ABOUT 600 MARCHERS participated in Albany’s march to protest the war, the draft, and
the ghetto conditions of the nation’s cities «Shown parading down Central Avenue, the marchers
staged a rally at the capitol.
Over 600 from Area Participate
In Anti-war March to Capital Capitol
“Our war is here — not in
Vietnam’? — Sam McDowell, a
member of the Brothers spoke
at a rally before 600 marchers,
and summed up effectively the
theme of a march held Saturday,
April 27 in Albany,
Held the day after the Inter-
national Student Strike for Peace
in Vietnam, the march was com-
posed of varying groups from the
neighboring cities.
The groups participating in
the march were: students, pro-
fessional groups, organizations,
(such as SDS, SANE and CDA),
labor, and residents of the tri-
city area,
The marchers met at 12:00
noon in St. Mary’s Park on Par.
tridge Street and Washington Ave-
nue. From there, accompanied
all the while by a police escort,
the marchers began their trek
downtown. Marching 4 abreast,
the total number participating in
the march was estimated at some-
where over 600 people.
Chanting slogans such as
“Freedom Now! Peace Now!’?
and ‘Support the Boys in Viet-
nam. Bring them home now!”
the marchers elicited definite,
though mixed reactions from the
citizens of Albany.
The marchers were instructed
to ignore any hecklers they might
encounter along the way. There
was little trouble of any kind,
however, ~throughout the day’s
activities.
Some people were impressed
with the march, while others reg-
istered negative comments. A
shop owner onCentral Avenue felt
that ‘Although I agree with the
basic principles of the march, I
think that greater adult support

the Student - Faculty Commit-
tee to End the War in Vietnam,
Friday’s teach-in was coordi-
nated by Ed Silver and Eddie
Shaw, co-chairmen, along with
Dr. David Harvey of the English
Department.
Among the featured speakers
on Friday was Dr. Merit Ab-
rash of RPI, who read an amus-
ing and pointed satire of a fab-
ricated ‘conspiracy’ between
top rank Russian leaders that
supposedly occurred sometime
just prior to the 1964 presiden-
tial elections,
In the afternoon session Dr,
Donald Mochon of the Art De-
partment contributed wit to the
teach-in with political cartoons
and commentary of his own,
During a break in the speak-
ers on Friday, Eddie Shaw read
a central council proclamation
concerning the teach-in,
The bill stated “that Central
Council support the aims and
ideas of the International Student
Strike . . . on Friday, April
26, 1968,?? and,
“that Central Council take
the position that any student who
does not wish to participate in
the strike should not be depriy-
ed of’ the opportunity for in-
struction at his regularly sched-
uled classes. The audience broke
into applause after Shaw had
finished reaiding,

Alumni Day,
Ed Silver both expressed their
happiness and satisfaction with
the results, Shaw stated — ‘I
was very pleased to see the
very fine turnout for Friday’s
teach-in, both in regard to the
number of students and the turn-
over rate, My personal opin-
jon is that many students got
more out of attending Friday’s
teach-in than they would have
by attending their regularly
scheduled Friday classes.”
Shaw also reiterated that Dr.
David Harvey of the English de-
partment had contributed ‘101
per cent’? to the success of
the teach-in and that ‘his de-
votion and work were invalu-
able.’”
is necessarv if it is to he taken
seriously.” On the other hand,
John Foulks, a member of the
Brothers, felt that the march
proved that ‘not all people are
apathetic — that somebody wants
to do something now.’* He felt
that the march was simply ‘‘Beau-
tiful.’?
Two businessmen watching the
parade offered only the comment
that the march was “nice and
peaceful,” Refusing to comment
at all were three soldiers seen
watching from the side street in
front of the Washington Armory,
‘The marchers reached the Cap-
itol at 1:00 p.m, They were mill-
ing around until approximately
2:00 p.m, when the program of

Socialist Discusses
War, Black Control
Peter Buch, Socialist Work-
er’s Party candidate for Con-
gress from the 19thCongression-
al District in N.Y.C. was guest
speaker of the Young Socialists
Discussion Group Monday after-
noon, April 8.
Buch stated that although he
himself was running for office, he
would talk about Socialism and
the movement for Fred Halstead
for President and Paul Boutelle
for Vice-President and to encour-
age students to vote in Choice ’68,
The main issues of the Social-
ist platform include bringing the
GI’s home from Vietnam and
promoting black control of the
black community. However, Buch
feels that all people who are
against the war in Vietnam should
vote for the Socialist ticket, even
if they do not agree with each
point in the Socialist platform.
He feels that the Socialist tick-
et is the only real alternative to
the Democratic and Republican
parties which are essentially the
same, and who will run candi-
dates that represent the rich ele-
ments of society. He stated that
both parties are against student
power and freedom, and that they
are both responsible for slums,
violence, and poverty.
In a private interview, Buch
said that he could not support any
Democratic or Republican nom-
inee, because they are just two
factions of the same party . .,
Capitalism. Capitalism, he feels,
is the party of the large corpor-
ations, banks, etc...
What Buch advocates, is Dem-
oeratic Socialism, with the gov-
ernment owning railroads, banks,
industry, ete., as the represen-
tative of the people. He feels
that the national government now
is similar to just another large
bureaucratic corporation, and
that it is responsive to big busi-
ness, but not to the poor.
Buch expressed the opinion
that the President should be
merely the administrator of the
People’s wishes, and subject to
immediate recall. When it was
remarked that this could be un-
stable, Buch said that it would be
good to have a period of trial
and error to discover what is
right for the country. The gov-
ernment could then be changed
and modified according to what
changes were needed.
Democracy should be strict and
total, according to Buch, and if
someone feels that the public is
not qualified to participate in the
government he should try to edu
cate all the people.
A labor party should be formed
to represent the workers and the
bureaucratic labor leaders
should be dismissed from the
unions,

75 Taken In Raid
At Harpur Univ.
Three students wére arrested
last week at Harpur University
on various drug charges. Other
colleges affected by the four
county raid were Cornell, Ithaca,
and Cortland, About 75 people
were arrested on drug and loiter-
ing charges in the Southern tier
raid. -
Sealed indictments were hand-
ed out to the Broome County
District Attorney, Stephen Smyk,
by the Grand Jury four days be-
fore the arrests in that county.
The four county raid was re-
portedly a result of nine months
of undercover investigation.
Agents were allegedly plant-
ed on campus as townies or stu-
dents. The acting President of
Harpur said that he was not in-
formed of the raid until the day
of the arrests.
The four counties affected are
Broome, Chenango, Tompkins,
and Ulster. The Grand Juries in
all four counties have been ex-
tended six months,
Among those arrested at
Harpur was the feature editor of

University To Participate
In Opportunity Program
by Gwen McLaughlin
Thirty recruit high school
graduates between 17and 20 from
urban and rural poverty areas
throughout the state to the Uni-
versity is the main objective of
the College Opportunity Program
(C.0. P.) at the University.
There are two criteria for se-
lecting the students. First, they
must come from families whose
economic situation prevents them
from contributing to their child’s
education.
Second, the student’s records
must be such that he would be
inadmissible to the University in
accordance with present stan-
dards (the students must have
either graduatedfrom high school
or have an equivalency diploma).
The students will be supported
in full by the University, will be
full-time students, and will live
on campus.
The recruitment for C.O,P.
was done by University staff,
high school guidance counselors,
and interested community ac-
tion groups throughout the state.
Robert Shostack, administrator
of the program, states, “Todate,
well over one hundred applica-
tions have been received, from as
far west as Buffalo, as far south
as New York City, and from the
cities of Elmira, Schenectady,
Amsterdam and Albany.””
Interviews for applicants start-
ed on April 29, and the deadline
for applications is May 20. On
June 6, letters of acknowledg-
ment of acceptance to the C.O.P.
will go out for all applicants at
the same time.
The thirty students accepted for
the C.O,P, will coine for a one-
day orientation on Saturday, June
15, On June 30, a summer ses-
sion for six weeks will begin with
a reception for parents and
friends. The C.O.P, students will
participate inthe regular sum-
mer freshman orientation (plan-
ning conferences) on July 1 and
then commence their six-week
session concentrating on Eng-
Psychedelic Talk
On Botany Given
A psychedelic presentation of
botany was given by Dr, David
Drum to the students of the Uni-
versity. Drum, a professor at the
University of Massachusetts, us-
es these unusual psychedelic met-
hods to teaéh his own classes.
In the lecture room which was
in complete darkness, the first
sound was that of a glass smash-
ing against the wall, followed by
numerous songs by the Beatles
and Simon and Garfunkle.
During this time three films"
were shown simultaneously. On
one screen were some primitive
people engaged in a war, while
on the other were pictures of golgi
bodies, endoplasmic reticulum,
and macromolecules.
He also had films about how
plants tell time, pictures of the
first rays at dawn and various
ther phenomena. Occasionai-
rum would stand up, launch into
a long complicated speech, then
promptly sit down.
Another glass shattered, and
the lecture was over. This pres-
entation, although not typical of
his classroom lectures, was used
to show the methods he employs.
Drum got his Ph.D, in Iowa,
and has since studied in Germany
and England, He is interested in
using various media incommunt-
cation.

In the fall, depending on their
individual progress, the C,0.P.
students will assume a reduced
freshman load and will continue
to receive the reading help, per-
sonal and group counselling, and
the individual and group tutoring
which began in the summer.
The staff for the University

Shostack states that, ‘‘The em-
phasis in course work is the de-
velopment of skills of individual
students and building on what the
student has.”’ No attempt is tobe
made to identify or differentiate
these C.O.P. students in any way
from any of the other students
on campus after their arrival,
and, according to Shostack,
“These students will be the van-
guard of the hundreds of students
who will be coming to our campus
in the future.”
Student Evaluation
Of Courses, Teachers
SECT, the realization of a
dream about student-faculty in-
teraction.
The initials stand for Student
Evaluation of Courses and Teach-
ers. The purposes for establish-
ing the organization; first, to let
the student know what other stu-
dents think about the courses he
will be taking, and second, to
make this same information
available to the instructors teach-
ing these courses. This will allow
faculty and students to work to-
gether for the improvement of
the courses offered.
SECT, a predominantly fresh-
man organization, is, as of April
3 this year, a standing commit-
tee under Academic Affairs Com-
mission, and is now working tow-
ards the completion of its first
evaluation booklet. They will at-
tempt to evaluate, using infor-
mation taken from question-
naires, each introductory and
non-prerequisite course to be
offered next spring, and make
their conclusions readily avail-
able in booklet form. This book-
let will enable the student to se-
lect courses which will satisfy
his requirements during Fall pre-
registration.
During the last two weeks of
classes this semester question-
naires, for the students and in-
structors of the aforementioned
courses, will be distributed, The
committee requests that each of
you start to think about the cours-
es you are taking or teaching, so
that when the time comes to re-
cord your comments, you will not
be making emotional decisions.
The future of this publication,
and student voice in the choice of
course material rests on intelli-
gent cooperation between the stu-
dents and faculty. With this in
mind consider what your courses
mean to you, and be prepared to
make your anonymous contribu-
tion to the growth of our educa-
tional system.

King Scholarship
Established
(continued from Page 1)
A sub - committee has been
appointed to the Scholarship Com-
mittee to decide specifically how
the fund can be used most bene-
ficially for the poor,
Many people are needed to
make suggestions to the com-
mittee, solicit funds, and to con-
tribute as much as they can to

common way that we, as people
in a university community, can

(CPS) — When the University
of Alabama held its annual Em-
phasis program several weeks
ago, one of the principal speak-
ers was to have been Yale Uni-
versity Chaplain William Sloane
Coffin.
However, Coffin — one of five
men indicted by a Federal grand
jury for counseling young people
to violate the Selective Service
Act — did not appear here. At
the advice of the university ad-
ministration, his invitation was
rescinded by the Emphasis com-
mittee about four weeks before
the program,
University President Frank A,
Rose did not demand that the
committee, which included both
students and faculty members,
rescind Coffin’s invitation. He
merely explained that having a
‘controversial’ speaker on cam-
pus would strain the already
poor relations between the uni-
versity and the state legislature.
The committee was able to un-
derstand the possible repercus-
sions Rose had in mind. Only
last year, several state legisla-
tors called for Rose’s resigna-
tion after articles by black power
advocate Stokely Carmichael and
Communist Bettina Aptheker ap-
peared in an Emphasis publica-
tion.

In order to keep your contact lenses as
comfortable and convenient as they were
meant to be, you have to take care of
them. But until now you needed two or
more separate solutions to properly
prepare and-maintain your contacts. Not
with Lensine. Lensine is the one lens
solution for complete contact lens care.
Cleaning your contacts with Lensine
retards the buildup of foreign deposits on
the lenses. And soaking your contacts in
Lensine overnight assures you of proper
lens hygiene. You get a free soaking case
on the bottom of every bottle of Lensine.
It has been demonstrated that improper
storage between wearings may result in
the growth of bacteria on the lenses.
This is a sure cause of eye irritation and
in some cases can endanger your vision.
Bacteria cannot grow in Lensine which is
sterile, self-sanitizing, and antiseptic.
Just a drop or two of Lensine, before you

Open Letter Supports
King Scholarship Fund
The following is a letter sent
to all students concerning the
Martin Luther King Scholarship
Fund Drive. Its aim is to raise
funds for financial aid grants
at the University for disadvan-
taged students.
Fellow Students,
Recently, a group of concerned
students, faculty members, and
administrative officers organ-
ized into an ad hoc Committee
to initiate a scholarship
memorial fund in memory of
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and
the ideas he represented.
This fund is intended to be a
continuing memorial to provide
persons living in deprived areas
with financial aid in attending
our University.
The fundraising for the
scholarship is further intended to
be an‘all-University project. In
raising the needed money we are
counting on and indeed must have
financial support of faculty, ad-
ministrative officers and per
sonnel, and of course, students,
As students,we unquestionably
have the largest man-power force
and therefore, it should be easy
for us to raise a sum of money
larger than any of the other
groups. And I believe we can
do this quickly and efficiently.
In about a week.a student from
your dorm will be contacting you
and asking you to make a dona-
tion to the scholarship fund drive.
We have set the student goal at
a minimum of $5,000 and we are
asking that each student donate
$2.00 or whatever he feels he
can.
I sincerely hope you will con-
tribute to this drive and there-
by indicate your concern with at
least one small aspect of one of
the most significant and challeng-
ing problems facing our country
today.

by Central Council 23-0-1.
Intersession has been changed
from three days in the old sche-
dule to eight days in the revised

this change was that many stu-

P EDITORIAL SECTION
Within this past semester the
belief that the disadvantaged per-
son should be given a more equal
chance to attend college has
spread throughout the more li-
beral academic communities of
our nation. There is no reason
why the universities cannot do
their part to try to break up the
vicious cycle of poverty.
If a student from a low income
area is able to receive good
higher education, the chance in-
creases that he may go back to
his home and help others to break
out of the almost cast-like posi-
tion they hold in society.
Presently on this campus,
there are two programs that will
aid financially the ‘‘disadvant-
aged’”’ student. One is the College
Opportunity Program, (COP) and
the other is the Dr. Martin Luther
King Memorial Scholarship Fund.
The first program is sponsor-
ed by the University, but the sec-
ond is dependent entirely on pri-
vate contributions. This program
needs volunteers to solicit funds
from members of the University
Community. There is still time
for each student to do his part
in this campaign and support it
as he can.
Perhaps a couple of dollars
or a few hours seems insigni-
ficant, but every little bit helps
increase the scholarship. Be-
cause of the continuing nature of
the planned scholarship it is con-
ceivable that the effort that is
put in it today will be benefit-
ing someone twenty years from
now.
There have even been sugges-
tions that the University should
admit 200 students from the
ghettos and other disadvantaged
areas for thenext academic year.
Although ideally this idea may
be what the young ghetto dweller
needs, the University may not be
able to provide enough facilities
for these students.
It would not be hard to give
all the individual attention need-
ed to start at the University to
the thirty students under the
Opportunity Program. But to take
Make More Equal
on the task of guiding 200 stu-
dents in the first year of the
program would be taking a chance
of untold proportions, especially
when there are not enough staff
experience in this experiment.
We laud the efforts of the
University for COP and the in-
dividual members of the King
Scholarship committee. Perhaps
when our ability to meet the
demands of disadvantaged stu-
dents is adequate, we will be
able to admit more than 200
students; then, this University
can do its thing toend the poverty
that is too prevelant today.
Another
The recent teach-in was a posi-
tive and progressive move in the
area of educational opportunity. In-
tellectual stimulation inthe sphere
of world affairs is an extremely
important aspect of the University
and we think there should be more
of it.
Professors speaking at the
teach-in were specialists in their
fields and offered pertinent and
sometimes shocking information to
those participating in the teach-in.
Not only was the information im-
portant, ‘but it was a welcome op-
portunity for casual dialogue with
the professors from the Univer-
sity who spoke at the teach-in.
Students should be able to meet
on a more personal intellectual ba-
sis outside the classroom, for this
is where the individual has a chance
to make himself and his ideas
known and discussed. There are
few occasions on which this level
of communication takes place. The
teach-in was an excellent start
in the improvement of faculty stu-
dent discussion on such a level.
Information given at the lec-
tures was invaluable. It is impor-
tant for all of us to learn about
what is going on in Vietnam not
only because there are soldiers
there now, but also the war’s ef-
fect on many aspects of American
life, including its intellectual as-
pect, is a topic of grave impor-
tance.
Vietnam, Civil Rights and the
Education
Can Change
The Office of Residences inthe
last few weeks has shown a truly
remarkable and gratifying ability
to mould its planning around the
changing and demanding senti-
ments of the student body.
After considering the com-
plaints surrounding the originally
proposed change inthe meal plan,
the Residence Office in conjunc-
tion with Food Service announced,
within a week, the adoption of the
much favored (according to the
LAAC poll) any 14 meal sche-
dule. This resulted not only in
the deletion of the contract food
section of the already printed
housing cards, entailing book-
keeping problems, but also in
draft present the three gravest
problems the United States faces
today. It is our responsibility as
members of an intellectual com-
munity, to learn exactly what com-
plexities are involved in these
problems so that we may approach
them on a rational basis.
the opportunity for a student not
liking the finally adopted meal
schedule, to break his housing
contract.
The day after the any 14 meal
plan was announced, LAAC found
that this plan, too, was inade-
quate, and proposed still another
change. Again, happily, the Office
of Residences was willing to go
along with the new proposal, for
which action it is to be com-
mended. Office of Residences
again came through beautifully
when it was decided that Central
Council and LAAC elections
should be held this week.
In order to properly run these
elections, Residence lists were
needed for each dormitory in
which upperclassmen were to be
living. By special work orders,
these lists were prepared ahead
of schedule so that the elections
could be held.
For its recent work in trying
to please and facilitate the func-
tioning of the student body and
its government, the Office of
Residences deserves commenda-
tion.
Stonybrook Students
Ask For Reforms
What began as a library sit-in at the
State Gniversty of New York at Stony-
brook on Wednesday in support of the
Columbia student strike, ended in the
presentation of a list of eight demands
for reform to the Stonybrook University
President Toll.
Chief among these were demands for
the removal of the so called maroon
force which polices the University, the
suspension of the DAPEC staff, a group
of former drug addicts who have re-
cently conducted therapy sessions es-
pecially for those with drug hangups,
and for the obtaining of funds for a black
educational program,
Using the Columbia strategy, a group
of 23 students staged a sit-in in the
business office of the Stonybrook cen-
ter, demanding a meeting with Presi-
dent Toll. The crowd of demonstrators
soon swelled to more than 50; many of
that number were graduate students.
Toll agreed later in the afternoon to
meet with a committee composed of five
of the students and five faculty mem-
bers. At this confrontation, Toll sup-
ported the black educational program pro-
posal, but was vague on the other issues.
Among their eight points, the demon-
rators also asked Toll to make an
“unequivocal policy statement that po-
lice appear on campus only on court
orders or if requested by the Univer-
sity” and to maintain in existance and
operative condition the faculty-student
committee previously appointed ‘to re-
solve issues that will continue to arise
in the growth and development of the
State University at Stonybrook.’”
After their initial meeting with Toll,
the demonstrators continued to occupy
the business office after being ordered
to leave by the President, When they
refused, Toll announced that they would
be referred to the student judiciary for
action, The demonstrators, according to
one Stonybrook reporter, seemed to have
been relying on outside help in realizing
their demands, and seemingly felt that
the administration would call in the
Suffolk police to remove them from their
occupation of the business office,
Toll, however, indicated that only
University rules had been broken and that
the demonstrators would be dealt with
through the internal judiciary system,
Since many of the demonstrators were
graduate students andthe student judiciary
to which they are being referred is an
undergraduate body, some question of the
propriety of their being tried in the
student court has been raised,

The Portside
by Carol French
With Hubert Humphrey’s an-
nouncement of candidacy, the 1968
campaign is in full swing. The
battle lines are drawn: it is to
be either ‘‘more of the same’’
with Humphrey or Nixon, or some
new answers with Robert F. Ken-
nedy. I find it somewhat apalling
that the Vice-President, the can-
didate running on the record of
an administration that totally fail-
ed, is far and away the front
runner for the nomination.
The Johnson-Humphrey Admin-
istration so shattered the nation
that the President could not even
run for re-election; Humphrey
is running on that record, And
yet, as one television commen-
tator put it, the candidate of the
Lawrence Welk crowd (and Les-
ter Maddox) may well carry the
day.
The case against Humphrey is
clear enough; I would not ex-
pect to find any thinking man
backing the Vice-President. 1968
must not be the year that we vin-
dicate the ultimate sellout.
The McCarthy movement is
something else again, In a sense
it can be discounted; Senator Mc-
Carthy shall be neither king nor
kingmaker.
But the McCarthy people have
a dream—the vision of the philo-
sopher-king, the hope for anapoli-
tical President—and they are not
likely to relinquish it without a
fight down to the wire. I can
see McCarthy as a fine alter-
nate but as a hero, never.
His supporters say that he is
a man above politics; that no
*machine’’ and no bosses back
McCarthy. This may be true but
I have not yet come to the con-
clusion that the lack of political
savvy is a virtue in the Presi-
dent of the United States. This
is the last thing we need today.
We desperately need a strong
President who can seize the ini-
tiatives from a conservative Con-
gress and a war-hungry military.
It is only through the exercise
and enjoyment of power by the
President that our cities shall
be saved and a newforeign policy
forged.
The McCarthy supporters see
his every act as smothered in
noble idealism, When McCarthy
slips, it only proves that he is a
citizen-politician or, better yet,
a poet surrounded by corrupt-
ing office holders.
The other day in the predomin-
antly black city of Gary, Indiana
Senator McCarthy addressed an
audience wearing a ‘‘Martin
Luther King, I Have a Dream”
Button, By his next stop, white
Hammond, Indiana, the button was
gone. There isnothing wrong with
McCarthy’s action outside of a
breach in taste. But it does
prove that like Kennedy and Nixon
and Humphrey and Rockefeller,
Eugene J. McCarthy is a poli-
tician. In fact he might well be
the best in the pack simply be-
cause he so well conceals this
fact which is so patent in the
very countenances of his fellow
Senator McCarthy’s main sell-
ing point is the fact that he was
the first Democrat to challenge
Lyndon Johnson. But today, this
is as irrelevant at Lyndon John-
son’s non-candidacy. McCarthy
must be judged on the issues.
Indianapolis’ black leaders, after
hearing McCarthy immediately
endorsed Senator Kennedy,
One can only hope that the Mc-
Carthy supporters will realize,
before it is too late, that they
must rally behind the Kennedy
banner. If they are sincere about
wanting a change in the direction
of American policy they will
make this move with some haste.
If not, they are the losers be-
cause once again their idealism
will be sacrificed. Perhaps Ro-
bert Kennedy ean win without
them but the fact is that they
cannot possibly win without Ro-
bert Kennedy.
The day after Dr. King was
shot, in the ASP there appeared
another of those good, old-fash-
ioned exhortations to ‘‘thank our
country for its blessings to us.””
1 wish to put on record by un-
compromising refusal to do so
on the grounds that this country
is NOT FREE,
The day after Dr. King, the
duocate of non-violence, was shot,
black people rebelled once more,
taking out their grief in acts of
violent destruction. On the news,
President Johnson proclaimed a
day of national mourning for Dr.
King, and sent troops into Wash-
ington to put down ‘‘disorder.’”
As of Saturday noon, April 6,
five black people had been killed
by federal troops. The nation’s
leaders do not mourn them.
I did not weep for Dr. King,
for his murder is no worse than
the acts this system perpetrates
office seekers.
Right Way
by Robert Iseman
The immediate controversy in
the wake of the rioting that re-
cently shook more than 100 Amer-
ican cities is not merely how to
prevent future outbreaks, but how
to stop the violence once it has
started. The present “soft
policy” which calls for the con-
tainment rather than the sup-
pression of violence has come
under harsh criticism —
and rightly so. It is just another
example of the recent trend of
coddling the criminal at the ex-
pense of the law-biding citizen.
In Washington D.C. the police
and troops were under orders not
to use force against the wide-
spread looting. Let’s examine
the results of such restraint.
Looters, performing a criminal
act, escape unpunished, True,
the restrictions on force pre-
vented injury and death to the
rioters, but is this a virtue when
these people are deliberately and
knowingly making a mockery of
law and order? Obviously, the
citizen who stand to lose the
most are the merchants whose
stores are being destroyed and
robbed. What about their civil
rights? They pay taxes, aren’t
they entitled to protection? Such
negligence on the part of the
government can have serious im-
plications.
What is a merchant going to
do when he fails to receive ade-
quate protection, not because of
a lack of manpower, but because
the gov’t officials lack the gump-
tion to give it to him? Many
are arming themselves, deter-
mined to protect their own pro-
perty. What alternative do they
have? As long as the rioters
know that they will not be stop-
ped by the police, the looting
will continue. And as long as the:
merchants feel that they are not
being protected, they will con-
tinue to buy guns.
On April 15, Mayor Richard
Daley of Chicago gave his police
department orders to “shoot to
kill arsonists,’’ and ‘shoot to
maim or cripple looters.” He

hension of Dow, If I am incor-
rect, I will be the first to admit
it, and welcome it. I would be
extremely pleased to see rational
discussion emerge victorious and
supreme as a weapon in Vietnam,
Johnson's intelligence in with-
drawing from the election amazes
me. It only took him four and one-
half years to realize that being
a scapegoat for everything that
goes awry in our nation is no
thrilling experience. He has made
a sensible decision from which
I’m sure he’ll benefit.
As I started watching the
speech, resolved that I would
luckily be forced to forego the
antics of Tommie and Dickie
Smothers, I couldn’t help being
struck with awe at the sight of
my President’s ears, I was con-
vinced that a combination of John-
son and Schlitz would put me to
sleep.
Then LBJ came out with Biggie
Number One, the bombing pause,
and attempted for negotiations in
Vietnam. I was amused that John-
son pulled this one out of his
bag of tricks. I was positive
that this speech would be la
beled as the one designed to
win for him the Democratic no-
mination. He would now be the
peace candidate, and Kennedy
and McCarthy would be forced
to go back to Washington to re-
present their constituents.
After listening about a half-
hour to Johnson tell what a good
guy Robin Hood was, and how the
United States government should
imitate him, the President
blurted out that Biggie Number
two: “I do not seek, nor will
I accept. . .”’ Needless to say,
I was surprised, but pleased,
realizing that now Richard Nixon

the bleeding-heart liberals for.
daring to suggest something as
unheard of as using ample mea-
sures to enforce the law. Lind-
say and his ilk ranted and raved
about the rioters who would be
injured or killed. In my opinion,
if after the criminals in Chicago
know about Daley’s policy and
still want to burn and loot, they
deserve nothing better than a
bullet. When you cause death and
destruction through arson, rob
stores, snipe at police and fire-
men etc., you should expect to
be apprehended by force. Daley’s
orders do not infringe on any-
one’s rights, nor are they ex-
cessively harsh. If you obey the
law you have nothing to worry
about, but if you decide to loot
and burn you face the conse-
quences,
The adoption of Daley’s policy
appears to be a necessity rather
than a choice. More agressive
measures by the police is the
only way to prevent citizens from
arming themselves. Already
small businessmen and home-
owners are preparing to protect
their property andfamities.
An 18 year veteran of the
Allen Park, Detroit Police Force
said, “If this keeps going it
will be like the frontier days—
everyone walking around with a
ean strapped to his hip, I’m
afrai@ that if some colored guy’s
ex backfires, he’ll get shot be-
fore he gets out of the neighbor-
hood.’’ The way to avert such
a situation is to give the average
citizen the assurance that he
will be protected. A continua-
tion of the ‘soft policy’’ towards
riots will only bring us one step
closer to anarchy and civil war
on black people every day. They
have the freedom to fight rats
and roaches in white-owned tene-
ments, the freedom to spend
money on overpriced goods in
white-owned stores, to go to
school in white - controlled
schools. Their lives are blight-
ed from birth by this system,
and when they revolt they get
the white man’s ‘‘lawand order.’’
When they advocate non-violence,
they are shot, and Dr. King’s
is only part of a 400-year long
continuing crime against black
people,
I come out of a typical white
working - class background, but
while anyone isnot free to achieve
his potentialities, as I have been
free to achieve mine, I shall
NOT be grateful to the system
for my private advantages. I
shall instead continue to work
for social change, to uproot the
causes of black enslavement, to
support unconditionally both
black control of the black com-
munity and the right of black
people to achieve freedom by
any means necessary.
There is no middle ground in
this struggle; whites can nolong-
er sit back and say, “What are
we to do when they riot?’ or
“How can we not send in the
troops?” Nor can we go down
to the black communities as mis-
sionaries, a move equally pater-
nalistic.
We must remind whites that
after the troops have “restored
order,’’ nothing is done to alle-
viate the conditions that caused
the problem.
So far, only bandaids are ap-
plied to cancers, in the form of
so-called civil rights acts, etc.,
when nothing is done about the
conditions that cause Americans
to. need to.pass laws making it
a crime to treat one’s fellow
Americans. indecently. The laws
are not enforced.
Racism, along with the war in
Vietnam, has its causes in the
fundamental nature of this so-
ciety. As long as the exploita-
tion of black people is profitable
to some people, racism will con-
tinue to exist. To eliminate
racism, one eliminates the
causes in the system, which re-
quires a fundamental reorganiza-
tion of this system. No one can
minimize the hugeness of such a
task, and one might well ask,
what about the meantime.
Until racism is gone, go ahead
with community projects, get bet-
ter balanced curricula into the
schools, establish programs to
help blacks enter State. But don’t
think that you attack the very
bottom cause. You just make life
a little more bearable for black
peonla.
If you seriously want to end
racism you must first realize
that it has causes. Then you
treat the causes—by surgery if
necessary.

Inefficient
To the Editor:
I would like to express my
deepest sympathy to the people
who had to control the fantastic
crowd for the Four Tops Con-
cert. It truly looked for a while
like an unruly mob at a demon-
stration.
I don’t think it was necessary
for girls and guys to be pushed
and shoved into walls and doors.
I almost broke an arm. I feel
the blunder could have been
avoided. Ten minutes before the
door opened people got tired of
waiting in line and decided to
stampede the whole front of the
building, pushing and bumping
into anyone in their way.
Not everything was the stu-
dent’s fault. Whoever was running
the program should have anti-
cipated the size of the crowd
and made arrangements which
would have operated more fluidly.
Instead, everytime a door was
opened slightly, the people moved
in tighter, When the one door
people on the sides pushed harder
was opéned first. Once inside
there was no problem.
But things could have been
solved by one of two possible
solutions. First, they could have
allowed the doors to be opened
earlier on a first-come-first-
served basis. Another idea might
be to use all the front doors to
allow for a more evenly dis-
tributed flow of people. Also,
since there are two doors into
the gymnasium why not use them?
After a fantastically great con-
cert the misery started again.
Knowing there was a concert
with quite a few people, some-
one should have provided the
students with adequate trans-
portation — at least two buses.
Instead, as expected, only one
lonely bus came, and naturally
not everyone got on. They only
had to wait for another half
hour.
I hope such problems can be
ironed out in the future and not
only save a lot of people some
trouble, but alsomake all campus
affairs much more enjoyable.

McCarthy
Supporter
To the Editor:
Just a few ideas I would like
enlarge the forum for the public
discussion of our programs and
policies. His candidacy broadens
the spectrum of meaningful poli-
tical exchange and provides op-
portunities for in-depth analyses
of our present and future course
as a nation.
(@) He offers us some alter-
natives to the present programs,
With respect to foreign policy,
this means an unconditional ter-
mination of the bombing in Viet-
nam and an orderly withdrawal
of our troops there. Domestical-
ly, Senator McCarthy has advo-
cated the adoption of a guaran
teed annual income program.
This means that for the first
time in our history there exists
the possibility of eliminating al-
most all poverty—the problem,
the solution to which will pro-
vide a giant step toward resolv-
ing many of our other pressing
social concerns.
(8) ‘The word change is not
missing from the Senator’s vo-
cabulary, His well-developed con-
ception of change makes him an
initiator, a quality which is abso-
lutely indispensable in a good
leader. I feel confident that he is
an honest, intelligent, imagin-
ative initiator and leader; these
qualities are very much needed
at this time.
(4) Finally, McCarthy’s can
didacy is important and worthy
of support as a reaffirmation of
the workability ot our system or
government, It is desperately ur-
gent that the disparity between
the will of the people and the
will of a comparative handful of
professional politicians be nar-
rowed, In fact, for many young
people reaffirmation is the wrong
term. For the the bridging of this
gap will be a practical affirma-
tion of traditional democratic
values.
In short, I feel the candidacy
of Eugene L. McCarthy should
receive stronger support-strong
enough to nominate him this sum-
mer and to elect him as our
President this fall—because he
gives us hope, faith and pride
in the United States.

Criticized
To the Editor:
Answer to the M.J, Rosenberg
column of March 15th, 1968.
I suggest that the M.J. Rosen-
berg should take a few more his-
tory courses before he is givena
special column in a respectable
intellectual paper. He should bet-
ter know that Arabs arenot basic-
ally anti-Jews, and to say thatthe
Arabs feed the Americans who
spend time in the Arab countries
an anti-Semitic propaganda is his-
torically and linguistically ridi-
culous for Arabs are Semites too.
After all Mr. M.J. Rosenberg is
Judaism a religion or a race?
Who Is Right:
To the Editors:
I am forced to admit, that
thanks to Mr. Sinen Abdulla, the
ASP has changed from a placid
to a controversial newspaper. I
now look forward every week to
reading Mr. Abdullah’s hate col-
umn. This school definitely needs
such a column, as thestudentsdo
not harbor enough animosity. I
wonder how much Mr. Abdullah
and the other Arab students in
this country receive for spread-
ing their inane platitudes? Hehas
every right to demonstrate his
bitterness and resentment to-
wards Israel, the Zionists and in-
evitably, Jews in general. I just
hope that Mr. Abdullah ap-
preciates the freedom of the
press offered at this school, be-
cause I doubt very much that
Jewish students at the American
University in Cairo (if there are
any) could propagandize for
Israel.

Aid for Law
Students
To the Editor:
The recent Selective Service
announcement concerning gradu-
ate school deferments means that
a numbef of pre-law college
seniors may defer their legal
education until completion of
military service.
In order to give thema greater
sense of security about law school
entrance when they return, Case
Western Reserve Law School has
adopted a guaranteed deferred
admissions plan.
As always, students who are
drafted while in the law school
or who leave toenter the military
before completing their law
studies will have the right to
return on completion of tneir
service. If a student should be
called to service in the middle
of a term, the law school will
contact his local board and re-
quest that induction be delayed
until completion of the semes-
ter’s work.
In the future any admitted ap-
plicant who indicates his inten-
tion to enter the law school but
who is drafted or who voluntary
enlists in the military before he
bégins his law studies can be
certain about his admission to
the School upon completion of
his obligation.
Every effort will be made to
piace him in the earliest enter-
ing class after his release from
the service. Only a brief reap-
plication need be filed. ~
Readmission will only be
denied in the case of conduct in
the interim period which reflects
adversely on one’s moral
capacity to enter the legal profes-
sion.
The deferred admissions
policy will apply to those who
go into the service to fulfill
ROTC obligations, and to those
who enter reserve programs with
a six-month or shorter period of
active duty.
It is our hope and expectation
that a large number of present
college seniors will plan toenter
law school next fall. However,
we would like students to be
aware of the deferred admis-
sions option. _

Attitude
Important
To the Editor:
I am a white, I cannot speak
for the blacks nor can I speak
tor the whites. I speak for my-
self. I realize the blacks have
undergone a great deal of abuse
by the whites for a very long
time — much too longa time. I
realize a great many whites are
bigots, hypocrits, racists. I’m
very very sorry about this and
shall continue to attempt to
rectify it, The blacks are im-
patient and rightly so. The blacks
are becoming violent and wrongly
so. The white have become vio-
lent and wrongly so.
What is needed? Humane, ra-
tional (Christian, if you will)
thought. Will laws abolishing
racism work? Not alone. They
require the willing honest sup-
port of everyone. A change in
attitude is needed. Whose? Every-
one’s. Mainly the whites? Be-
cause it is evident that some
change is needed and there are
more whites than blacks. Hence
“mainly.’’
What can the white do? He
can examine his own conscience
and attempt to blot out any pre-
judices he finds there. Then he
can go into his community and
start helping other whites see all
mankind as their brothers. What
van the black do? He can stop
for a moment screaming “bigot,
hypocrit, racist’? and help. To
stand and tell the ignorant that
they are ignorant aids no one.
Join with us in “the healing of
nations.” Help us overcome our
prejudices, and yours. Talk,
teach, show, aid, work with not
against. Is it revenge the blacks
want? Hannah More said, “If
I wished to punish my enemy,
I should make him hate some-
body.” Do you want me to
apologize being born a white?
T cannot speak without the words
coming from the mouth of a
white. I apologize for all of the
injustices I have allowed to exist
in our society.
Violence on the parts of the
blacks or the whites will ulti-
mately serve no one any good. If
the blacks say that because the
whites have so long abused them
that now we should give them
privileges above and beyond those
of the whites, I cannot in principle
agree.e And I must admit that I
am upset by se who demand
extra privileges no matter what
their race. However, I am will-
ing to walk the extra mile, to go
above and beyond strict equality,
if that is what is needed. It
takes a hell of a lot of nerve
to ask the blacks for greater
forebearance but that is what
is needed. The time that is long
overdue is the time for unselfish
giving, for a mutual demand for
understanding, and for the long
long overdue granting of
equality to everyone in thought
and deed.
Sincerely,
Keith Nealy
Letters
Criticized:
To the Editor:
Your newspaper could have
handled the Arab - Israeli con-
flict in a much more dignified
manner, For six weeks you have
printed many letters which
shouldn’t have appeared in print
in the first place, A school news-
paper, when letters are limited
to 300 words, cannot handle
such a situation in the best man-
ner possible,
It should not expect to do so
either, The ASP is not the place
where two sides should battle,
For six weeks, the student body
has seen Zionist, Anti-Zionist,
Anti - Semetic, and anti-Anti-
Semetic statements,
It has become absurd, and I
Tequest that you not print any
further articles on this subject,
I do suggest, that if both Zion-
ists and Anti-Zionists wish to
debate, then let this be a pub-
lic debate. If the ASP wishes
to be involved, perhaps it can
sponsor a series of debates on
the Arab - Israeli conflict, -
To be more mature, the ASP
must change its present policy,
and it should learn how and
what to censor,

Being as I hayen’t been suc-

funny in this column, it doesn’t
seem to be any great loss for
me to sacrifice one of my pre-
cious columns to speak serious-
ly on something I feel is im-
portant, This is 2 solo venture;
my co-author is not responsible
for any of my opinions.
For many years, students
at this university have been some-
what concerned about issues
which concern them, In the past
several years, though, ‘student
power” has been increasing at a
fantastic rate.
Suddenly the thought occurs:
What the hell are we doing?
Why?
It is disheartening to suddenly
realize that you have been wast-
ing your time for years,
We have been greatly con-
cerned with many of the peripher-
al issues of student life, Some
of us who have been working
around this school have been all
kinds of up tght for several
years about women’s hours;
drinking on campus; _solici-

sneaked around, researched, in
fact done everything in my power
to change things for the better

of some of my modest accom-

“Help fight integration and
communism!’’ A quote from a
billboard, an advertisement to
join the United Clans of Ameri-
ca; the place, Fayetteville, North
Carolina. An example of public
intimidation, and part of the heri-
tage of the South.
The behavior of the public in
the South is superconservative,
student involvement in critical
issues is almost unknown on the
campuses of the state support-
ed colleges. The image of the
“Old South” has survived as a
reality in the present.
The problem that we're in-
volved with here is a lack of
recognition of human values, a
struggle against a racist sys-
tem. We, as college students
today and leaders tomorrow, have
a responsibility to bring a twist-
ed, self-perpetuating system to a
halt.
All people are individuals
whether they realize it or not,
one of there obligations is to meet
and treat others on this basis.
The hate and ignorance which
result in bigotry and prejudice
are denials of the individuality
and inherent good of all people,
The weapon which we mustuse
to defeat all such systems is
love, Love and understanding are
the natural enemies of hate and
prejudice,
Immediate success is the ideal-
ist's dream; many of them have
taken the ‘‘glory road’ of bro-
therly love, for their sake alone
a heaven should exist. To look for
a quick victory is to court tra-
gedy; by concentrated effort the
democratic love of all men, the
ultimate anarchy, canbeachiey-

This will stand~as my answer

It’s All Greek To Me...
by Maggie Dietz
In past weeks, and in the next
few months, quite a number of
us seem to be faced with imme-
diately crucial choices, Several
of these choices involve notori-
ous happenings called elec-
tions,
We've recently elected people
under the titles of Class Of-
fice, MYSKANIA, LAAC, Cen-
tral Council, Alumni Board,
Choice ’68, and fraternity and
sorority officers. Observation
here points to the fact that
Choice ’68 and the fraternity
and sorority elections are the
most interest - provoking. Choice
*68 aroused interest because its
concerns involve all of us, and
the fraternal elections arouse
interest because all involved
are concerned,
So really, it’s possible to par-
ticipate in the all - encompas-
sing or specially - selected type
of choice. It is a hopeful as-
sumption that most members of

cause of both natures of choice,
Then too, there is a special
selective element which doesn’t
seem to allow much room for
choice, the draft. The choices
are largely indirect, made by
others for us, before us. The
immediate individual choices in
this situation are now widespread
common knowledge, available to
anyone who seeks the informa-
tion, Yet even here, there is a
most important, most pervasive
element of choice; it involves
what we’re supposed to be do-
ing here, at an educational in-
stitution. That choice is doing
the justifiable thing in your
own situation which may make
someone else’s choices better,
Any choice which doesn’t bring
immediate results is the most
difficult, yet most valuable to
make,

senioritis dilemma of not know-

Choices involve bewildering
but very useful confrontations,

Shankar Movie
Being Produced
‘Messenger Out Of The East’?
a dramatic full length color film,
is currently being produced about
the Indian classical musician,
Ravi Shankar.
The film will seek to explore
both his enormous success inthe
eastern world and the difficult
task that has become uniquely
his — that of bridging the two
divergent cultures of East and
West. In a concept that looks
to the source, the film will try
to discover the meaning of Ravi
Shankar himself — a meaning
locked deep “within the culture
and traditions of Indian music,
art, philosophy, religion and life.
The film will show how music
is far more than music in
India. It will explore the mystical
union of music and religion in-
extricably entwined in the daily
life and’ seasonal cycle of the
people and the land. It will point
to the significance of a musical
sound for every movement, for
every ceremony, for every mood,
birth, death and marriage.
“*Messenger Out Of The East’?
is being shot in Eastman color
by a British-American crew on
locations throughout India follow
ing the main threads of the fabric-
that of the ancient and unique
relationship between Guru and
Shyshya, master and disciple.
The film will show the joy and
zeal on the part of the Guru in
devoting his time and energies
.to the teaching of the sacred
traditions reciprocated by the
devotion and discipline of the
Shyshya in dedicating his life to
learning and his Guru.

AL HIRT CONCERT
Vibrations
by Paula Camardella
Al Hirt and his jazz group,
appearing at the RPI fieldhouse
jJast Saturday evening, certainly
prought down the house. Their
performance was lively, spirit-
ed, sparkling . . . in short,
fantastic!
The group consisted of five
members — Al Hirt, trumpet;
Joseph ‘*Pee Wee” Spitelera,
clarinet and sax; Ellis L. Mar-
salis, piano; Wayne De Villier,
organ; and Frederick Staeble,
drums.
They did favorites like**Cotton
Candy,” Java,” “Monday - Mon
day,” ‘Sugar Lips,” “Girl
watchers,” and ‘Yesterday,’
which of course featured Al Hirt.
Throughout the concert, each
member performed as a solo.
**Pee Wee,’? Al Hirt’s sidekick,
did a New Orleans blues number
with a swanky beat. Judging from
the ovation he received (it was
like Arthur Godfrey’s Talent
Scouts applause meter), Al Hirt
will give him his raise.
Wayne DeVillier presented an
exciting arrangement of
“Slaughter on 10th Avenue,’?
which was pleasingly different.
Ellis Marsalis, the pianist, gave
two magnificent performances—
«Autumn Leaves,’? an all time
audience favorite, and ‘‘Bess,
You Is My Woman Now,” from
Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess.
State Quadrangle
Plans Fall Films
State Quad Productions, head-
ed by Franklin Levy, Laurence
D, Pearson, and David Ridge,
has turned the State Quad Flag
Room into a movie theatre for
the weekends.
Cinema Study Break was a
weekend program last semester
which allowed the members of
the University to take a short
study break before finals and
relax while viewing a film.
During this semester films
have been exhibited each week-
end. For some a special re-
served seat policy was followed
to allow the viewer to witness
the film as it was meant to be
shown — overture, intermission,
etc. The lineup for the remainder
of the semester includes ‘Lord
_ Jim (5-6),’? “Becket (5-10),”” and
«Gigi (5-19).””
Levy has already announced
some plans for next fall. These
include a production of the
comedy “The Impossible
Years.’? Movies to be shown in-
clude “Torn Curtain,” ‘‘Fantas-
tic Voyage, ’’ The Alamo,’’ ‘The
Umbrellas of Cherbourg,” ‘The
Cincinnati Kid,”’ ‘‘Charade,’”’ *¢A.
Thousand Clowns,’? ‘(55 Days at
Peking,” ‘A Patch of Blue,” ‘A
Man For All Seasons,” ‘‘Father
Goose,’’ * Tobruk,’? and‘*A Coun-
tess From Hong Kong.’?
It is really difficult to say who
stole the show — but a close
contender was the 21-year-old
drummer, Fred Staehle, doing
Brubeck’s ‘Take Five,’’ He held
the audience literally captivated
throughout his number, and no
one knew whether to break into
enthusiastic applause sporadical-
ly, or whether to silently savor
every delightful second of his
creativity.
Aside from the musical talent,
the group had a lot of audience
appeal. Al Hirt has a really good
sense of humor. His puns were
very enjoyable, and he didn’t
overdo it with the jokes. He and
“Pee Wee’? hammed it up
throughout the program, which
was pretty enjoyable.
It’s really true that Al Hirt
is “the King’? — he puts out a
concert with all he’s got.
WES MONTOGOMERY
Reverie
by Walt Doherty
«©Wes Montgomery: A Day in
the Life’? on A&M records has
got to be one of the best albums
in a long while.
Montgomery plays a guitar and
has a 30-piece orchestra backing
him up, but the amazing thing is
that the songs he plays are ar-
ranged so that the orchestra
never overpowers Montgomery’s
guitar — it is the lead instru-
ment and played that way. The
orchestra provides a background
for Montgomery’s superb musici-
anship. It’s refreshing to find
someone with the taste to use a
little restraint today rather than
overwhelming a person with
sound and electronic tricks.
Montgomery uses this sort of
restraint. He provides popular
tunes in an arrangement suited to
the guitar and in particular tohis
guitar.
**A Day in the Life’? is the only
song in which the orchestra has
more than just a background role,
but considering the type of tune
this is, it’s understandable that
something different be done with
it. Montgomery’s arrangement of
this captures the mood of the
Beatle original (if that’s pos-
sible) even without words, That
quite frustration of life is cap-
tured in the calm, but still mov-
ing, presentation.

New Peanuts Book:
A Joy To Read
by Harriet Lieser
«You're Something Else, Char-
lie Brown’ is the latest in the
line of cartoon books by Charles
Schulz featuring the Peanuts
characters. Present, as always,
we find the zany and amusing cast
led by the one and only Charlie
Brown. Charlie Brown is the
sensible but, somehow, ‘‘ne-er-
do-well’? fellow who we find, in
this book, refusing to write to
his pen-pal in pencil but manag-
ing to squirt his pen’s ink all
over him.
We also see the insecure and
philosophical Linus who comes
to the conclusion, after pulling
his hand out of the refrigerator,
that ‘‘a thumb tastes better at
room temperature.’’ Crazy
Snoopy is back, as aloof as ever,
and continues, in spare time be
tween baseball games, to hunt
out his arch enemy — the Red
Baron. Lucy is her same dom-
inating, egotistical self. She is
repulsed at the thought of kiss-
ing Snoopy and considers Charlie
Brown, as always, an‘*Old Block-
head.’?
In ‘You’re Something Else,
Charlie Brown,’? Charles Schulz
takes us through the usual base-
ball season fiasco of Charlie
Brown’s team, an unsuccessful
summer at camp, Lucy’s psy-
chiatric help center, Snoopy’s
‘perpetual search for the Red
Baron, and many other enjoy-
able incidents. It is delightful
to read and a great way to free
one’s mind of the Roman Empire
and quadratic equations.
In closing, I’d like you all to
join me in the thought that one
day soon. . . Snoopy will catch

SOME RECENT MOVIES
Films
by Dave Bordwell
Bo Widerberg’s ‘Elvira Madi-
gan’? looks unnecessarily bad:
the absence of directorial imag-
ination seems all the worse be-
cause we aren’t aware. of the
extensive folk tradition that sur-
rounds the story. The Swedish
ballad runs: ‘A young lieutenant
-nobly born - ran away- from wife
and children with Elvira Madi-
gan.’? The couple share an idyllic
summer; the lieutenant refuses to
get a job; faced with starvation.
they commit suicide. In print
this looks bad, but Widerberg
makes it look worse on film.
First, it is not by a long shot
“the most beautiful film ever
made.’’ As I’ve said before, this
is the day of striking cinemato-
graphy — you rarely see badly
photographed film — but what
counts is what the stylistic pret-
tiness projects. Some ofthe shots
in “Elvira Madigan’? do indeed
have a Renoirian loveliness. but
they quickly become a series of
vacuous Life-magazine stills.
There is much more true cine-
matic beauty in, say “The Virgin
Spring,’? (another film with a folk-
tale as its source — but what a
difference!) because Bergman
has constructed each shot not
merely for its own sake but for
Circuit Brings
Brian Carney
Brian Carney, Art Carney’s
son, will be the next performer
sponsored by the Coffee House
Circuit, He will appear Tuesday
through Sunday, May 7-12, in the
west end of the Campus Center
Cafeteria. Shows will begin at
7:30 and 9:30 on Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday, and Sun-
day. The Friday shows will be-
gin at8:00, 9:00, and 10:00 p.m.
while Saturday shows will begin
at 8:00, 9:00 and 10:80 p.m.
Carney is 21 years ola ana
hails from Bronxville, New York.
He was educated at DePauw Uni-
versity in Greencastle, Indiana.
He has done summer stock in
Maine, made TV appearances on
the “Merv Griffin Show’? and
«Tye Got A Secret,’? and played
many of the famous coffee houses
on the East coast including the
Bitter End and Gerdes Folk City
in New York City, the Rath
skeller in Mt. Vernon, and the
Charles Inn in Newport, Maine.
Using both the acoustic. a
electric guitar, he accompanies
himself doing a variety of pop,
rock, and folk songs, His pro~
fessional engagements have in-
eluded a number of colleze
‘purposes of revealing characters
and theme and advancing the
story. Sometimes this happens
in “Elvira Madigan,’? but not
nearly often enough.
To make matters worse, we
aren’t told of the folklore that
surrounds the story and Wider-
berg injects no rhythms or im-
agery that might visually approxi-
mate folk convention. Instead,
viewed from a realistic angle, the
story grows steadily sillier (we
even watch the couple desperate-
ly gobbling grass) and grinds on
to asudden stop. Widerberg might
have saved the film by giving the
lovers some substance as char-
acters or by rendering the
peasant society more fully. As it
is, the couple are standard screen
lovers (there’s even that obliga-
tory slow-motion romp through
high grass), and only glimpses of
the society’s atmosphere come
through. Maybe ‘Elvira Madi-
gan’? shouldn’t have been export-
sd, but I’m convinced that a better
director could have created
something. | Bo Widerberg,
though, isn’t the man.
««The Fox’’ (Delaware Theatre)
is a slick, artificial piece of work
with all the familiar contours of
the bad cineplay. (**He was just
looking at me . . . looking into
me.’? “I need you!””) Two-thirds
of the cast are uninspiring: Kier
Dullea is as wooden as his axe-
handle and poor Sandy Dennis is
still affected with her facial St.
Vitus’ dance; only Anne Heywood,
a lovely brunette, can be watched
without embarrassment. (I wish
they’d make a movie with her
alone in it.) Bill Fraker’s photo-
graphy paints the scene’s wi
triness well, and there’s some
momentarily effective cutting, In-
cidentally, if you’re going to see
“The Fox’? because of those
three erotic scenes, you'll be
disappointed — they're brief,
chilly, and dull.
“No Way to Treat a Lady’ is
a party for Rod Steiger fans and
a bore for anybody else. It can’t
decide if it wants to be a comedy
or a serious thriller, and so fails
as either. (There’s nothing wrong
with mixing genres and moods,
but it’s dangerous to try it if you
lack the daredevil skill of a
Hitchcock or a Truffaut.) Steiger
races through a series of clever
impersonations (Irish priest,
German plumber, faggot, cop)
that are impressive, I guess, but
which certainly conceal the
depths he’s capable of. A good
thriller should be thrilling, but
director Jack Smight can’t con-
struct even conventional sus-
pense stuff.
n the Coffee House
Tonight,
This week five of the nation’s
finest jazz musicians will per-
form in Jazz Festival Il as a
part of Explosion ’68 festivities.
Leading off in the series of three
concerts was the Gary Burton
Quartet. Hailed as the greatest
influence on vibes since Milt
Jackson, young Burton’s music
is a unique juxtaposition of rock
and jazz elements. Burton’s cur-
rent group has two L.P,’s on the
RCA Victor label: ‘*The Time
Machine,’? and ‘*Duster.’? They
appeared in the Campus Center
garden on May 2,
Tonight, in the new gym, flutist
Herbie Mann’s septet will play
opposite Clark Terry’s big band.
Mann is most well known for his
fiery Afro-Latin percussive ef-
fects combined with the sound of
a variety of exotic flutes. Follow-
ing Mann, trumpeter Clark
Terry’s big band will hold forth
for the second half of the con-
cert. In the short time since the
band’s inception, ithas generated
excitement from musicians and
critics alike, Clark Terry will
probably be familiar to late-
evening television viewers be-
cause he is a regular member
of the ‘Tonight Show’? orchestra
where he occasionally displays
his humorous talent for mumb-
ling song lyrics.
Charles Lloyd and Dizzy
“Gillespie will be the attractions
for the Saturday evening concert,
the final in the festival. Charles
Lloyd’s quartet won national fame
last summer, after a series of
highly acclaimed appearances at
the Fillmore Auditorium in San
Francisco, where his best-selling
album ‘*Love-In’? was ‘recorded
in concert. A second wave of
publicity showered Lloyd’s group
early in November when they
were cheered by thousands in
Moscow despite adverse preper-
formance announcements by gov-
Tom
ernment officials regarding
Lloyd’s performance,
Rounding out the Festival’s
roster for Saturday night is an
appearance by Dizzy Gillespie’s
quintet. Little can be said about
Gillespie to add to the acclaim
has inspired for the past twenty
years except to mention that he
continues to lead a volitile com-
bination of superb musicians ina
remarkably cohesive unit.
Tickets for the Friday and
Saturday evening concerts may
be obtained today in the Campus
Center. Tickets will also be sold
each night at the door. The prices
are: $8.50 for a combination
ticket for both Friday and Satur-
day nights; student tax only. For
either night the price is $2.50
with student tax; and $4.00 each
night without student tax.
Richardson Houses
Summer Theatre
Arena Summer Theatre of the
University will be performing
proscenium style during the 17th
consecutive season this summer.
Complications of space and
scheduling have prevented the
theatre from occupying its
familiar home in Page Gym-
nasium or its home-to-be in the
Performing Arts Center, Instead,
Arena will operate in the studio
theatre, Richardson 291.
For this season three produc-
tions are planned, and they will
be chosen from the works of the
following authors; Samuel
Beckett, Maz Frisch, Jean An-
nouilh, August Strindberg, and
Several newer dramatists, James
Saunders, Sam Shepard, and Sla-
womir Mrozek.
Following its policy of many
years, Arena will have open au-
ditions for all residents of the
area in late May or early June.
THE JIM HENDRIX EXPERIENCE
Fourth Time Around
by Igor Koroluk
Jimil Hendrix proved himself
a performer who must be seento
be fully appreciated at his con-
cert in Troy, April 19. The sheer
physical drive and creativity he
possesses can never be cut into
wax — man, he is great. His
physical mannerisms and con-
tortions could be construed as
gross, but somehow they aren’t;
they reinforce the entire idea
of his music — raw, basic sensu-
ality.
Although all eyes were on Hen-
drix, we realize that ‘The Ex-
perience’ would not be complete
without the excellent talents of
the bassman and drummer,
Hendrix has molded a fantastic
music machine, combining his
enormous talents on guitar (any-
one who can make music by
smashing a guitar against anamp
has to be the best I’ve ever
seen), and his instinctive show-
manship, along with two of the
finest sidemen you might ever
find.
The Troy Armory has the worst
acoustics of any placé in which
T have ever heard a concert.
“The Experience” proved their
greatness by overcoming the hor-
rendous echo, while the ‘Soft
Machine,??” who appeared with
Hendrix, showed their musical
ineptness by being dominated by
it.
The ‘*Soft Machine” contrary
to rumor is not led by John
Hammond (thank heavens!). They
appeared to be trying to develop +
a theme to its fullest, so that we
leave the realm of music as we
recognize it and get into things
such as the electronic music
composers are doing. In itself

this is a good, as well as imag-
inative goal, but it requires
musical skill and an ability to
control sounds completely —
talents which the group pitifully
lacked.
I’ve acquired some very ex-
cellent recordings since my last
column and would like to sum-
marize a few of them. In the
field of hard rock there is a
group called “Iron Butterfly”
with an album under the very
misleading title ‘‘Heavy.”? They
don’t come on as strong as say
the ‘*Blue Cheer? or ‘Amboy
Dukes’? and, in fact, manage to
achieve some very delicate,
veautiful sounds, Their chief
asset is their organist, who
makes the sound distinctive. Es-
pecially fine are his baroque in-
troductions to ‘*Rossersian’’ and
"Get Out Of My Life, Woman’?
as well as the complete ‘Iron
Butterfly Theme.” A very nice
album, with a different approach
to hard rock,
Phil Ochs has shown sheer
genius in ‘Pleasures Of The Har-
bor.’? He has questioned his own
brand of cynicism and has be-
come less direct, without losing
any of his brilliant sarcasm. His
lyrics are great and beautiful and
funny, but the brilliance of the
album is in thearrangements and
use of orchestration, Best ex-
amples are in the title song, a
study in lyrical romanticism, and
in ‘Cruetfixion,?”> with is re-
markable use of dissonance. This
album is one of the finest, most
thorough, folk”? records ever
produced.

Lacrosse Club Romps,
Cobleskill Victimized
by Jay Silverman
A barrage of goals by Steve
Jakway, Mike Barlotta and Jim
Flannigan led the unbeaten Al-
bany State lacrosse club to a
19-3 slaughter of an outgunned
Cobleskill A&T team in the first
home lacrosse game last Satur-
day.
Playing before a good-sized
crowd, which was quite vocal,
the State stickmen held quarter
margins of 4-0, 10-1 and 15-3
in sweeping to their second
straight triumph. ¥
The first quarter was a wild
melee, with both teams showing
their nervousness for the first
eight minutes. Then State at-
tackman Jim Flannigan went on
a scoring rampage, firing in four
goals within a 6 minute span.
Walt Quillinan picked up an as-
sist, as did Steve Jakway.
The second period was a two-
man show, as Jakway and little
co-captain Mike Barlotta con-
tinued to pour goals past the
Cobleskill goalie. Jakway fired
four goals, getting anassist from
Bruce Sand’on one. Barlotta
whipped in two counters, one ona
beautiful breakaway from the
faceoff, The visitors finally
broke the scoring ice in this
period as Schleigle scored unas-
sisted.
Despite single goals by Guzzo and
Winterton for Cobleskill, the Al-
bany club continued to build its
lead. Barlotta fired in two more
goals, with an assist from Kev
Sheehan on the second. Jakway
hit one, Andy Hotchberg scored
once, and Sand assisted Mark
Werder on his only goal of the
day.
The Great Danes continued to
pull away in the final period,
with Sand getting one goal and
assisting Jakway on another.Ken
Turow and Barlotta also hit to
close out the day’s scoring.
Jakway led all scoring with 6
points, all on goals. Mike Bar-
lotta had 5 goals and Jim Flan-
nigan had four, Bruce Sand picked
up 4 points on one goal and three
assists, and Hotchberg, Werder
and Turow had a goal each.
In the first game of the sea-
son, Mark Werder’s 7 goals and
3 assists led the Albany club toa

powerful Union College frosh
teame
Next on the slate for the la-
erosse club is a game with the
tough, experienced Tri-City La-
crosse Club.- The game is

lacrosse field (soccer field)
Saturday at 2 p.m.
and finished fifth in a field of eleven.
Albany got its only first
from the distance medley
relay team, which includes
an 880, a 440, a three-quar-
ter mile, and a mile.
Don Beevers, Mike Nolan, Tom
Mills and George Rolling com-
posed the team, which won due
to a fine effort by Rolling, Roll-
ing took the baton 50 yards be-
hind two other runners, but run-
ning an intelligent race, he grad-
ually wore both of them downand
won the race by 10 yards,
For this effort Rolling was
voted outstanding runner of the
meet, It was the first time arun-
ner not on the winning team was
so honored,
On Saturday the club wona very
close meet against Harpur and
Hartwick, scoring 67 points to
Hartwick’s 62 and Harpur’s 55.
Mike Nolan set a new Albany
440 record, with a time of 51.6,
and Larry Frederick broke his
own two mile record with a time
of 9:53,7, Depth was shown in
the half mile, as Dick Horowitz
was second in 2:03.4, Frank My-
ers was third in 2:04,6, and Joe
McAndrews was fourth in 2:05.0
Albany also got first from: Don
Myers who ran a 4:32,8 mile, Ba-
sil Morgan who ran the 100 yard
dash in 9,9 and Saul Moshenberg
who went 42’ 03-4” in the triple
jump.
Second ‘place finishers for Al-
bany included Frederick in the
mile, Don Beevers in the shot-
put, and the javelin, Horowitz in
the 880, and Moshenberg in the
Jong jump.
Unfortunately two injuries re-
sulted from the meet, as Mor-
gan and Mathias both pulled mus-
cles, Morgan should recover
soon, but Mathias is expected to
be out for the season,
Last Wednesday the track club
easily defeated Plattsburgh. Stef
Smigiel-was the stand out for Al-
bany, as he took four events,
placing first in the discus, the
javelin, the shot-put and the high
jump. Basil Morgan also came
through with a very strong per-
formance, as he won the 100 and
the 220, anchored the 440 relay,
and ran a 50-second 440 to an-
chor the mile relay.
The track club’s next meet is
at Hartwick on Wednesday March
8, The meet promises to be a
close one.

Great Danes Tie Union,
Top HVCC
by Phil Kahn
Last Ssturday the Albany
booters took the field for their
second spring engagement. Union
College and Hudson Valley were
invited to play in a round robin,
half hour games. Playing this
spring to rebuild and strengthen
last year’s squad, the Danes met
Union in the opener.
Both teams started slowly, but
Albany held the upper hand
throughout. The Great Danes
started slowly, but finally settled
down and play well, penetrating
the Union defense frequently,
while the defense showed it’s
strength by holding Union to only
seven scoring attempts. How-
ever, the ball never seemed to
find the nets for either club,
and the game ended in a score-
less tie.

Sports Editor
This past week the University Athletics Council’s
report on undergraduate intercollegiate athletics was
released by President Collins. The Council had been
empowered by Collins to formulate a rationale for
intercollegiate sports, and to propose a program for
their future development at the University.
The report starts with a well written rationale,
that emphasized the benefits of intercollegiate compe-
tition to both the individual participants, and to the
University as a whole. One interesting point was the
idea that an excellent sports program can bring the
University into the public eye, and thus put the Univer-
sity in a better position to emphasize its other outstand-
ing aspects.
With regard to future development, the report pro-
posed a wide, but gradually phased expansion of the
University’s entire athletic program. Of primary in-
portance is the call for the establishment of football
at the earliest feasible date. The plan calls for the for-
mation of a club in the fall of 1969, with three years
of club football, to be followed by varsity football in
the fall of ’73. Other sports mentioned for possible
varsity status include; lacrosse, track and field, swim-
ming, gymnastics, fencing, crew, squash, water polo,
ice hockey, rifle and volleyball.
One of the biggest problems in implementing this
proposed expansion is that there are only limited op-
portunities for expanding the coaching staff. The re-
port did, however, call for the hiring of three new
men for °69-70, thus enabling the formation of club
football and varsity lacrosse.
Another major point of the report, and one which
was given considerable emphasis was the idea of con-
ference membership. No conference is specifically men-
tioned in the report, and it is’ difficult to come up with
a conference that fulfills the requirements (not too far
away, similar entrance requirements, and similar level
of athletic competition), but the idea itself is certainly
a good one. Conference membership would be es-
pecially beneficial with regard to scheduling, for at
the present time our independent status leaves us ina
particularly difficult position in this respect.
Another problem, that of recruiting, is also given only
minor consideration. The report reiterates the posi-
tion of the Trustees of the State of New York that no
athletic scholarships shall be given. It then goes on to
recommend: open communications between admissions
and the athletic department (with regard to academically
qualified students), and a flexible policy with regard to
campus employment opportunities.
All in all the report is good in that it strongly rec-
ommends that the sports program expand with the Uni-
versity, but it fails in that it more or less bypasses
the problems of effectively facilitating these recom-
mendations. The report would be more realistic if it
called for the establishment of some means of facili-
tating recruiting, and made more definite recommen-
dations with regard to. scheduling.
Frosh Linksters Win
by Joel Volinski
The freshmen golfers opened
their 1968 season successfully
by winning two of their first
three matches. In the season
opener against New Paltz, the
frosh won a 3-2 match which
could have gone either way. Lar-
ry Clark and Marty Benjamin
won their individual matches ea-
sily, while Joel Volinski won
his on the first hole of sudden
death, Both Tom Patterson and
Steve Bookin lost their matches
on the last hole,
Albany split in a tri - meet
against Hudson Valley C.C, and
Cobleskill. Hudson Valley, prob-
ably the strongest team the frosh
will meet this year, won every
possible point except one, The
Albany frosh lost to Hudson Val-
ley 7-0, but beat Cobleskill
6-1, This meet was strictly
medal play, or total strokes. Low
scores for the frosh were posted
by first man Tom Patterson and
second man Joel Volinski, each
shooting 91.
The courses that the frosh
have played this year have been
extremely tough, but if they ex-
pect to continue to win matches,
these scores must come down,
There are five matches left
for the frosh, This week they
played Albany Pharmacy and Si-
ena at their home course, Mag-
regor.
Nine Splits With Potsdam
Rematch With Siena Today
The Albany State baseball nine won one and lost two in action last weekend. The
Great Danes fell to Siena and Jack LeMay on Friday by a 5-0 count. On Saturday they
bounced back to score a decisive 11-2 win over Potsdam in the first game of a twin,
bill. However,
Potsdam came back to eek out a 2-1 win in the seven inning second
game. Today the Great Danes will be hosting Siena, and will be out to avenge their 5-0
loss.
In the first Siena game
Albany outhit the Indians 6-5
but Siena madeits hits count,
while the Great Danes were
unable to come up with clutch
blows aganst Siena’s LeMay.
Jim Rourke and Denny Elkin
had three hits apiece in the
Great Danes 13-hit attackagainst
Postdam, Rourke rapped a sin-
gle, double and triple, while
Elkin had a triple and two sin-
gles.
Albany pushed 5 runs across
in the third. Rourke doubled and
Elkin singled criving in Rourke,
Hurler Cas Galka walked, and
Jim Sandy singled to left for
one, Jim Murley then singled for
another run, Tom Decker walked
and Joe St, Onge then singled
up the middle for the final two
runs of the inning,
In the fourth Elkin tripled and
scored on an infield out, and in
the fifth Rourke tripled home
two more, Galka then rode home
on a comfortable lead,
In the second game Rich Pat-
rei started for Albany and pitched
well, allowing only two hits in
the first five innings, Unfortu-
nately the Bears used their hits
well scoring once in the fourth
and once in the fifth, and those
two were enough. Albany’s only
run came in the bottom of the
fifth, when Murley singled, stole
second, moved to third on abalk,
and scored on a wild pitch, Al-
pany threatened in the seventh,
but Potsdam’s Dick Staab bore
down and thwarted the rally.
After 10 games, the official
statistics showed Jim Rourke as
the team’s highest hitting regu-
lar, Rourke then sported a .345
average, he also led the team
in total bases, stolen bases and
RBIs, Denny Elkin was next
among the regulars, as his hot
bat produced eight hits in four
games last week, and upped his
average to ,286, Jack Sinnett
and Jim Sandy were also doing
well as they stood at .278 and
.265 respectively.
The pitching statistics show-
ed Cas Galka with a 2,16 ERA,
but a 1-2 won-lost record, while
George Webb had a 2,82 ERA
and a 3-1 record, The Great
Danes record at this writing
was 4-6, but they played a home
doubleheader with New Paltz
on Tuesday,
ALBANY STATE CO-CAPTAIN JIM MURLEY DASHES for
the plate in the first game of theGreat Danes doubleheader
with Potsdam last Saturday.
Frosh Nine Falls 8-3
Errors Prove Costly
Rockland Community College’s
baseball nine proved to be too
much for the Albany State fresh-
men last Saturday, as they send
the Great Danes to their third
defeat in as many games, by a
9-3 count.
Rockland scored once in the
first, but Albany came back with
two in the second. Jim Lee ‘led
off with a walk, stole second,
moved to third on a passed ball,
and then scored on HowieSmith’s
sacrifice fly. Then, with twoouts
Al Herzlich and Ron Spratt both
drew bases on balls, they moved
to second and third on a balk,
and Herzlich then scored on Eliot
Nirenbere’s infield single.
Rockland Too Strong
Rockland, however, came back
strong, scoring twice inthe third,
once in the fourth, and twice in
both the fifth and sixth. Albany
came up with its final run in the
top of the ninth, but it was to no
ayail. The run scored when Herz-
lich walked, Spratt singled, and
Herzlich then scored when the
Rockland shortstop threw the ball
away on an attempted DP.
* Smith started for Albany, work~
ed the first 5 2-3 innings, and
was tagged with the loss. Bob
Friedlander came on in relief
and finished up. Both hurlers
were the victim of poor fielding
support as the frosh committed
8 errors. The frosh were also
bothered by spotty hitting as they
managed only four hits as com-
pared to 8 for Rockland.
The baby Great Danes travel-
led to New Paltz on Tuesday,
and they will be traveling to
Siena today. They will then re-
turn home tomorrow for a 2:00
p.m. encounter with Cortland.
