Danes need new formula for Norwich battle

During the first half of the 1982 season,
the Albany State Great Danes proved the
basic theorem that a well-balanced offense
plus @ stingy defense will equal winning
football, But tomorrow in Northfield, Ver=
mont, the Danes, minus the services of in
jured quarterback Tom Pratt, defensive
tackle Jim Canfield and perhaps tight end
Jay Ennis, will haye to try some new
‘iritlimetic against their annual foes, the
Norwich Cadets,

Albany-Norwich games are always
blood-fought batiles, The Danes lead this
Intensive Division II! rivalry, 5-2.

“It has been one of the greatest rivalries
We've ever had,” said Albany State head
coach Bob Ford, “Every time we've played,
it's been a dog-fight from start to finish."

“11m sure its going to be a physical foot-
ball game, it always is between these wo.
teams,"" added Norwich head coach Barry
Mynter.

Last season, the Danes were missing
Pratt when the Cadets paraded onto
University Field, However, a last second
touchdown pass from reserve quarterback
Dave Napp to split end Bob Brien turned

K the Cadets 7-0,

ering tomorrow's contest, the Danes
find themselves in a similar predicament,
Pratt again watching from the
sideline, Ford will call upon backups Tom
Roth and Eric Liley (o share the signaicall-
Ing duties, Each has seen limited time so far
this season, Roth will probably get the star~
ting nod from Ford with Liley to follow as
the game progresses

On the defensive side, Manny Cauchi and
Frank Gallo will team up (0 replace the in-
Jured Canfield,

Most of last year’s Cadet team is back
this season, Mynter's Cadets have struggled
through their first six contests of the year
with a 2-4 record, Last week, the Cadets
suffered a tough loss at the hands of Divi-
sion 11 nationally-ranked St, Lawrence,
39-38, In that heartbreaker, Norwich came
buck from a 24-0 deffclt to pull within one
point of their highly-ranked opponents.
Myniter elected to go for the game-winning
(wo-point conversion, late in the fourth
quarter, but it failed and the Cadets lost

“They're very controlled and like to spread
the offense around,’ said Dane assistant
coach Rick Flanders, who scouted the
Cadets for Albany last weekend,

Lawrence game. Making his debut at

Buy at the right time," said Flanders

Joining Brooks and O'Neil in the
backfield is sophomore fullback Jim Earl,
He started as a freshmen last season against
the Danes at halfback, but with a compact
6'0"* 205 body, he has ‘made the transition
to fullback real well,"’ according to
Flanders

we’ve ever had. Every time we’ve played

“He's kind of an unknown,”
Flanders of Brooks whose name had not
even appeared in the Norwich program. "1
don’t think they (Norwich) even knew he
has that kind of ability
game breaker.” The
scored three touchdowns to put Norwich
back in the game last week.

The Cadets are quarterbacked by senior
Dave O'Neil, At 6'1", 185 pounds, O'Neil
has completed 37 passes in 103 attempts for
739 yards and four touchdowns, He has
also thrown eight interceptions,

“He's (O'Neil) a great team leader and
directs their offense very well. He's the glue

He's a run-away freight truck,”
described Flanders, “tHe runs real well."”

The Cadets mainly like to keep the ball
‘n the ground but when they go to the air,

ke their attempts count. Against St,
Eawivuce, O'Neil completed only five
passes 1 16 altempts, but they were good
enough for 171 yards,

The Cadets main receivers are Steve
Spano, an Albany area product, and Beau
Almodobar. ‘They're both excellent
Feceivers and both are good runners after
they catch the football,
Last week, Almodobar had three catches
for 120 yards, while his teammate Spa
chipped in with (wo receptions for $1 yards,

said Flanders,

Norwich has another gutty receiver in
tight end Steve Smith, Smith caught several
balls a year ago against Albany, ‘He's the
type of guy if you try to take away the other
two threats (Spano and Almodobar), he'll
kill you,"* Flanders said.

Defensively, the Cadets employ the
familiar 4-4 defense that is also used by tne
Danes, In fact, the Dane coaching staff are
hoping that Albany's knowledge of that
defense will prove to be an advantage,

But a particularly strong defensive front
four may have something to say £0 that
The key (0 the entire defense is embodied in
fa pair of fine defensive ends: Mike Bender,
610" 205 pounds and Dan O'Shea, 6'1"" 215
pounds, ‘They complement cach other
very well,” said Flanders,

The line is rounded out by another pair
of complementary defensive linemates at
the tackle positions, Bob Patterson stan
ding at 6'2" 235 Is considered “the big
strong kid", while Len Belfino at $'10"* 220
is ‘the fittle quick Kid,"

The linebacking corp. is siong as well for
Norwich, Tim Kelly and Chris Caputi roam
the inside region, ‘They're better than
average football players and because of the
big front four they appear even better,”
Flanders said,

The two outside linebackers are of con-
siderable size, Jim Magee 6-0, 215 is ‘*huge
for an outside linebacker,"’ according to
Flanders and his partner Dan Lay 6'2'*, 200
pounds is also good size for the position.

“They do not have a lot of team speed
but if you try to run at the gut of them,
their tough (0 beat,” said Flanders.

Norwich's secondary may also be a bit
belter against the run than they are against
the pass. The secondary is led by safety
Jerry O'Conner, ‘He can cover the ground
and he's a good hitter,’ said Flanders,

If the Danes would like to remain in con-
tention for post-season competition, then
they probably cannot afford to lose to their
opponents from Vermont, But whenever
these two teams hook up, there seems to be
extra intensity in the air.

“1 think this is one of those types of
games that exemplifies good Division II
football,”* concluded Mynter, “It has all
the ingredients that you look for in a good
football situation,””

Socialist Harrington criticizes

By Debbie Judge
til

EDITORIAL ASSISTA\

Although Chairman of the Democratic Socialists of
America Michael Harrington called for a “radical restric-
ting of the American economic and social system" within
the first ten minutes of his Monday evening CC ballroom
speech, his views unfolded to be less than radical

In fact, Harrington apologized several times to his more
left-winged listeners for the moderation in his “potential
strategies for the 1980's,”

“Coalition is the way to go," Harrington said, speaking
of a country built on interest groups and heterogenous
elements that create a “mushiness' of American
democracy, He called both Republicans and Demoera
“orally inadequate (© handle the crises we are now in,”

Harrington said the Democrats are willing to let Presi-
dent Reagan “run the country into the ground,'” so people
will turn to embrace a Democratic candidate, He noted
“not Reagan is good, but not good enough,

The key, Harrington said, fs a “democraticization'’ of
investment, He pointed to a decrepit railroad system, and a
ruined automobile industry as examples of poor corporate
investment,

He suggested allocating financial credit on the basis of
rise-lower interest tates for people who want to ‘build
houses, Or get a car to go to work in." This kind of invest-
ment, he pointed out, creates industry.

Harrington mocked Reagan’s belief that when you “give
money to working people, they eat it. Give it to the rich,
and they'll invest it.

"it is absolutely true that the rich will invest the
ney," Harrington said, The problem, Harrington

U.S. policies

Wall Street lawyers and stock brokers,"”

Harrington toyed with Reagan's comparison of the stock
Inarket {0 the “health of the "” doubting that the
President would rush to the mire after today's stock plum:
met, Rather, Harrington compared the market C0 the ar-
bitrary dealing of a crap game,

Harrington apologized 10 the strict leftists when he pro:
posed giving money to corporations, **not in the hope that
they will do something good, but when they do something
sod." He was speaking, for example, about tax support
for jobs provided by industry

Harrington is in direct opposition tw Reagan's trickle
down theory and advocated rebuilding from the ground wp.
He said he sides with the Brandt Committee in interna
tional affairs, which proposed that the progress of the third
World nations was beneficial to the United States, He cull
ed! the support of unpopular regimes, “not only immoral,
but incredibly stupid"?

Harrington's involvement in social activism in the past 25
years 1s a curious connection of ins and outs in the
American system. First becoming active during the MeCar-
thy period, Harrington Was associate editor of the Catholic
Worker, Since then, he has been active in the civil rights
movement, active in organizing the Prayer Pilgrimage for
Freedom, and working with the late Dr. Martin Luther
King, Harrington has also had close ties with organized
labor, now a professor of political science at Queens col-
lege, he is also a member of the American Federation of
Teachers, a member of the Fund for Republic Union Pro-
Ject from 1956 to 1962, and (wice the features speaker at the

SASU opposes new SUNY budget

~ By Mark Hammond

The 1982-83 proposed SUNY budget
released Friday, which includes a dorm rent
hike of $80 and increases in out-of-state
and community college tuition, has been
termed. ‘ridiculous’? by SASU officials
Who are launching a protest against it

The $1,265.8 million budget secks to raise
dorm rates to $1,330 per year, If passed, it
Will be the sixth time that SUNY: has won
dorm rate increases in the past eight years

The budget proposal would also increase
‘out-of-state tuition by $1,400 in an effort 1o
raise an extra $10 million in revenue. Com:
munity college tuition could rise by over
one-third to a maximum of $1,050,

These and other changes will be ratified
during a SUNY Board of Trustees meeting
Wednesday, said SASU Vice President
Scott Wexler, Wexler said SASU plans to
gather approximately 500 students who will
rally at the SUNY Central building
Wednesday to oppose the budget

‘Alter ratification by the SUNY Board of
Trustees, the budget will go to the State
Division of Budget (DOB), which SASU
fears will institute even more changes,
possibly even a tuition hike, Wexler said.
The budget will appear before the New
York State Legislature in 1983 before it
meets final approval by the Governor's pen
in April 1983,

SASU plans to follow the budget through
its phases, Wexler sald, by submitting a
written complaint to the DOB and “'talking
to the new Governor and explaining that
SUNY did not submit a fair budget, and
meeting with (his) new experts."

The difference in this year's budget is
that “SUNY usually proposes a stable
budget to the DOB, The DOB usually
makes tremendous cuts in it, but this year
SUNY has done that themselves'’, said

SASU President Jim Tierney. Wexler feels
this will give the DOB an opportunity to
raise (uition or institute other increases:

The dorm rate hike is part of a continu
ing trend towards dorm self-sufficiency, ac
cording to SASU Legislative Director,
Steve Cox, SUNY wants (0 remove the
dorm cost burden from itself and make
students pay the entire cost. “SASU ag
with this, if students could run the dorm,
Cox said, Presently, dormitories are
managed and governed entirely by SUNY,
and most SUNY schools enforce a policy
making on-campus housing mandatory for
a student’s freshman and sophomore years
at college, SASU advocates a change in
both those policies;

The community college tuition increase is
discriminatory against women and
minorities, Wexler said, because it is these
people who can often afford to afford only
a low-cost community college, Presently,
community college cost is split three ways
between student, state, and county, The
budget proposal would increase the student
cost by allowing the student bill to rise 10 a
‘maximum of $1,050.

The budget also proposes raising out-of-
state tuition by $1,400 to $3,150 for
undergraduates and $3,585 for graduates,
By this, SUNY stands to gain additional
revenue of some $10 million.

“They're trying to price out-of-state
students out of the market,"” Cox said,

Additionally, Cox said, SUNY seeks 10
narrow their definition of a New York resi-
dent. ‘We feel this homogenizes SUNY
too greatly and would threaten the integrity
of a university that is supposed to be
dedicated to open access," wrote Cox in a
press release,

SASU alleges that the new budget

SUNY's four Health Sciences Centers in
Syracuse, Brooklyn, Stony Brook and Bul-
falo stand to receive a disproportionate
allotment of the budget - receiving increases
Of 35 percent while the total increase will be
11 percent, Cox sald, The Health Science
Centers are essentially hospitals, Cox
noted, and staff Is SUNY paid, ‘I don’t
see why SUNY should be in the hospital
business,"’ Cox said,

“We appreciate the need for public
education in the medical field...but we

hopes to gather students then to rally the

**Now is the time to fight,” Wexler said,
SASU hadn't initially planned on devoting
a great deal of time and energy to the
budget this year, Wexler explained,

‘By Amey Adams

Late Wednesday night six cars were
vandalized in Indian Quad's parking lot
with the thieves stealing five car stereos, one
equalizer and other items,

The value of the stolen merchandise was
assessed at $2,500, according to Assistant
Director of Public Safety, Sohn Henighan,
"It was all pretty good equipment,"” he
sald,

Lieutenant Gus Poli of Public Safety
sald, “The apparent method of entry is a
hole forced under the door lock with some
sharp instrument and the same instrument
er object is used to cause the lock
* However, Polli could not pin-

‘The greater percent (of such vandalism)
occurs in Indian due to the wooded areas,
the lighting, the number of vehicles parked
there, and the easy entrance and exit from
the lot,’” said Poli,

Henighan originally felt the thefts were
professional, but now believes this is not
necessarily the case. *'There are other
machines for taking out locks, this was not
so professional.’ However, he believed
that the thief was not from the area, “It's
‘an unusual occurence. There is no indica-
tion that this (mode of entry) has happened
in the city of Albany befo I’ssomething
you might see in New York."

One Wednesday victim, Susan Gentile,
has had her car vandalized four times in the
last two years. Thursday afternoon she
went down to Indian lot and found her car
had been broken into, The burglar alarm
system on her 1980 Camaro was bypassed,

this time
The record Is more like two EP's rather
than an album, That is, side one is a com-
bined rock-folk-country sampling, while
side {wo is more sentimental and introspec-
tive. Walker walks the thin line between
folk and country on the whole album. The
first tune, "Dealing With the Devil”, tells
the tale of someones (Walker?) struggle
with the decision to give up the vices of
youth and settle down to an adult ex:
Istence. He does a nice cover version of
Dylan's "Don't Think Twice", featuring a
snappy steel guitar by Mike Hardwick, His
version of the Dylan standard does nicely

Walker possesses a fairly unique style of
singing; he almost gives the Impression of
‘one who's lost his voice but continues on
bravely. It’s obvious that he hasn't, actual-
ly, and the gruffness serves to make the
ballads more realistic. Ballads do dominate
the record, but there are one or two une
quivocable rock songs. The better of the
two Is "Green Back Dollar”, a tune written
by Hoyt Axton and Ken Ramsey, This song
also deals with a conflict within someone
over thelr lifestyle, but this rocker has an

new Niven/Yablans film should
do very well indeed, The film, starring
Christopher Reeve as a young American
priest takes place behind the scenes of the
post World War II Vatican and implies
everything from mafia connections to illicit
sex.

I { controversy is good box office

Megan Gray Taylor

Tt is clear from the start that the pro-
ducers of this film started out to make a
serious film about corruption in the guise of
religious devotion. But somewhere along
the line someone said, "that will never sell,
throw some sex into It, that always sells”
So that's exactly what they did. Half way
through the film the young Father Flaherty,
in military uniform sans chaplain crosses
meets postulant (nun to be) Genevieve Bu-
jold. She appears innocent but in fact in the
next scene she casually disrobes telling him
she only has an hour before she must be
back at the convent. The director, Frank
Perry, obviously recognized this incongrul-
ty of character and subsequently gave her a
ridiculous speech (while she's in bed nak-
ed) about how she always got hurt, so the

might as well get to it.

This, along with the other supposedly
moving scenes left the audience laughing.
The dialogue fell io such levels as: “I'm liv-
ing with a need to tell you something | can't
tell you", Reeve says In trying tell her he is
a priest, “Let it out” she replies, all while
the camera pans over the Vatican In the
distance. Inappropriate laughter remained
a problem throughout this part of the
movie, which only lasted a total of about
20 minutes, (thank god for small favors),
Including the final moment of discovery
and confrontation

Part (but obviously just another small
part) of the problem was the discrepency in
looks of Reeve and Bujold, She looks 40
‘and hard (hardly the innocent postulant)
whereas he looks 24, even in the end of
the film when he should look 50. This just
seems to add to the already em.
barassment of the actors,

But lets not lose sight of the real story this
love story Is supposed to sell, Clearly there
is much wheeling and dealing behind the
closed doors of the Vatican, but this par-
ticular view inside is guaranteed to offend

Pulling the strings

purse strings holds the power.

The budget process — the way the purse is ar-
ranged — has just begun, SUNY Central's Office of
Business and Finance has pul together a budget that is pro-
bably the most self-destructive financial document that of-
fice has ever written,

T here's a saying to the effect that whoever holds the

In the past, the budgets SUNY has sent to the Division of
Budget and the Legislature have been ambitious and
positive, reflecting the promise of the SUNY concept. But
this budget cuts back the SUNY system when it needs to be
expanded, and it reduces the diversity of the system's
smaller colleges when their diversity is most needed,

The budget proposal accepts that SUNY enrollment
should and will decline, This is just plain wrong, With the
cuts in financial aid and present economic bad times, the
demand for low-cost public higher education has never
been greater, More and more prospective students are be-
Ing turned away by SUNY universities and colleges every
year, especially this year. SUNY has also become increas-
ingly popular with non-traditional returning students, The
DOB enrollment estimates, on which the state university
based its budget, are too low. Just when the central ad-
ministration is trying to reduce enrollment, it should be fin-

ding ways to accomodate more students.

The budget request is also increasing the funding for
SUNY's medical centers at the expense of the colleges
Each of the arts and sciences colleges has an individual mis-
sion — a special purpose no other college fills, These in-
stitutions are beginning to be phased out by the budget re-
‘quest in favor of the university centers and medical centers,
This centralization runs counter to one of the beauties of
SUNY — its diversity.

The dorm rents will again be raised in the proposed
budget. In 1978-79 it cost $750 to live in a dorm. In
1983-84 it will cost $1,330. This 77 percent increase — in
the name of self-sufficiency — {s drastically raising the cost
of attending school with little benefit for the student, At
feast, if the dorms are to be financially self-sufficient — as
SUNY plans — students should have control over how the
dorms are run, As things stand, students will be footing the
entire bill for domitorles with no control over how the
money is spent,

‘This budget clearly is part of a trend by the state to
lessen its committment to SUNY. In 1974-75, state funds
pald for 88 percent of the state university's operating ex-
penses, Last year that dropped to 72,8 percent

Itis vital — especially this year — that students organize
against the budget, With a new governor coming into of-

fice, it's important that we show that SUNY is a priory
the citizens of this state, A strong showing agains this
regressive budget will demonstrate to the new executive —
be ft Cuomo or Lehrman — that students are a politcal
force and that they back a healthy university. The Division
of Budget and its Iackies in SUNY Central must be sh
that we think thelr budget stinks, If students unite on thy
issue now, before the budget is mired in the legislature, w,
can reverse the state's trend of cutting SUNY, and stant
building it again,

There's going to be an organizing meeting to plan op
tion to the budget tonight at 7:30 pm in LC 14. It'll give us
a chance to organize before the meeting Wednesday morn
ing when the Board of Trustees will decide whether to a
cept the budget. A few hundred students in that meeting
room in SUNY Central at 8:00 am Wediesday will let the
Trustees know that this budget is not what SUNY wants or
needs.

If we let our power be known, we can get a say over the
purse. The students can pull the strings,

Today's story on the budget may seem a bit lopsided —
we couldn't get anyone in SUNY Central to talk (0 us,
They wouldn't even return our phone calls. We realize that
bureaucrats in the largest university system in the country
can get rather busy — they were in '*meetings" all day, but
if they won't talk to us, there's not much we can do,

In their budget, the administrators downtown have
shown that they're not responsive to students’ needs, We
learned yesterday they're not responsive to the students
press, either.

This past Wednesday I trekked down to Flushing, along
with hundreds of other SUNYA students, {0 see the Who,

Of the lucky few that have the priviledge of residing in

the football strike, 70,000 people aren't a common sight at

and the Who played on a stage set up in deep centerfield, 1

cheaper, However, if someone had asked me trade my

phatic No way,"’ You see, I have this strange fetish about
living and the field at Shea seemed cerily reminiscent of
a concert I'd heard about a couple of years ago. It was held
in Cincinatti,

| Madelyn Levy

After the fiasco in December 1979, one would believe
that the managements of all large arenas and stadiums as
well as the people who play in them, had learned their
lesson, It became tragically apparent that fateful December
night that festival seating (or standing) and crowds don't
mix, Why then, is itrepeatedly allowed (o occur? Where are
the laws needed to prevent stadiums from putting people in
these precarious situations? Why, in this supposedly civiliz-
ed world, are people treated like cattle?

One reason, perhaps, is the typical attender of these
events, Quite often, he/she is under 18, No one at this sen-
sitive age believes in his/her own mortality, They don’t care
what they go through, as long as they see the group or
event, Even if minors did vocalize their complaints, no one
pays much attention. They are children, to be seen and not
heard, The former is often not even done, as evidenced at
the Who concert, Cops looked the other way when kids

jumped over the seats and ren onto the field with their arms
stretched out in victory. Great job guys. Perhaps this
was a major reason why there were 25,000 people on this
field instead of the anticipated 12,000. This occurs at all
concerts and functions, Where is the manpower necessary
to prevent this from happening? This should be the number
one priority for the management of all stadiums. As a
crowd gets larger, it usually gets rowdier and more violent,
People get very irritable when their nose is in someone's
neck and an elbow has made a permanent home in their rib-
‘cage. How can anyone realistically expect a jam-packed
crowd to remain calm? It's impossible. At the Who con-
cert, the crowd was packed worse than a SUNYA bus at
9:00 A.M, Everyone kept pushing forward. Roger Daltrey
kept asking the crowd to move back, Can you imagine?
O,K. everyone, at the count of 3 pick up your left leg and
move it one foot back, all 25,000 of youl’ The security
people at all events should anticipate problems like this

surdity

earlier and come up with a solution. They should take the
measure necessary to keep a crowd under control and the
proper size, An obvious answer to this is reserved seating,

Festival seating has never been truly successful, Another
event that could have been avoided was the fatal stabbing
Of a concertgoer at the Rolling Stones’ concert at Alta-
mont. Rather than choosing official police, the Stones
hired Hell's Angels, who lived up to their reputation, The
Stones in effect masterminded this tragedy by deciding to
have a known group control a Stones’ audience, known for
its rowdiness. It turned into a deadly nightmare, Had the
management sat down and come up with a realistic security
‘and seating plan, Altamont would be remembered only for
iis music. The only way to assure safety, especially with top
names like the Who and the Stones, is to issue reserved
seating tickets. Somehow, e

JSC-Hillel’s reasons

To the Editor:

‘Although JSC-Hillel certainly believes in free speech and
the presentation of different and alternate viewpoints, JSC-
Hillel does not endorse the upcoming lecture by Rabbi Melr
Kahane, JSC-Hillel does not believe that it is beneficial to
use the public forum to incite passions, especially in light of
fa delicate issue such as the current situation jn Israel and
Lebanon, Such an issue requires careful dialogue, not
radical and hard line approaches.

It should be noted that JSC-Hille! did sponsor a lecture
by Rabbi Meir Kahane two years ago, which proves that it
is not shying away from presenting various viewpoints
However, given the tense time that we find ourselves in
now, JSC-Hillel has decided 10 educate the SUNYA com:
munity in a responsible, calm manner by bringing to cam-
pus several programs addressing the current situation in the

Middle East which serve to edify and educate students in a

carefully managed method.

Inhumane policies

To the Editor:

‘On Wednesday, October 27, the Revisionist Zionist
‘Alternatives will bring the founder of the U.S. Jewish
Defense League on campus to speak. Meir Kahane is also
known as the leader of the Israeli ultra right wing Kach
movement which has adopted an extreme racist political
ideology, advocating the forced emigration of Palestinian
‘Arabs from Israeli occupied territories, This letter hopes to
briefly reveal to the SUNYA population the inhumane
policies advocated by Rabbi Meir Kahane.

It should be pointed out that Meir Kahane does not
represent the popular sentiments of the Israeli people or of
the Jewish population elsewhere. For example, in 1973,
when he first ran for a Knesset, he failed to win a seat, Fur-
thermore, in the most recent Israeli election, his votes drop-
ped drastically. Perhaps one reason for this lack of support
can be found in his racist policies. In a paid advertisement
Kahane proposed a Knesset bill which advocated ‘com
pulsory lessons in all the schools in the country on the uni-
Gueness of the people of Israel and prohibition of mixing
and having relations with other nations’. Furthermore, he

singly technological world, computers have
The value of these ener

“proposed” a mandatory jail sentence of five years with no
possibilities of parole, for any non-Jew who has sexual rela-
tions with a Jewess.""

Apart from his domestice policies, his regional policies
are equally inhumane, His so called ‘redemption for
Israel” is outragiously declared in the title of his most re-
cent beok, ‘They Must Go." The book is a crazed call, in
Kahane's words, ‘to remove the cancer from Israel's
midst.’* The cancer is, of course, the Palestinian popula
tions in Isracli-occupied territories, Kahane’s Arabs,
however, like Hitler's Jews and George Lincoln Rockwell's
Blacks, do not exist in reality, They are pathological conoc-
tions of his mind, As he wrote, "Ycome let us recognize them
for what they are... crazed and filled with hate and lust!"

Other minor short-term solutions, apart from a ‘final
solution", include the expropriation of Arab land, ending
all university education for Arabs, terminating all state ald
to Arabs and suspending all citizenship rights for Arabs in
Israel,

‘On September 26, 1982, Kahane told Yedior Ahronot (an
Israeli newspaper) that, *"Tybeh (an Arab village) residents
fare not faithful!” because they protested the massacres in
Sabra and Shatilla, and therefore he decided to enter the
Village, in order (0 expel all Arabs, Consequently, when he
arrived at Tybeh with three of his supporters, the Israel
government arrested the four, This was not the first time
Kahane was arrested for racist agaression.

If the reader is still not convinced of Kahane’s racist and
Violent attitudes, then one last obscenity should be men-
tioned, In a statement issued Jast week, quoted by the
Jerusalem Dawn Newspaper, Kahane expressed regret that
the Israeli army did not personally carry out the massacre
of Palestinians in the Beirut camps.

Kahane’s writings and actions are a disgrace to humanity
and history, To see advertisements for this racist on our
campus is an outrage and insult (o a university that official:
ly advocates non-diseriminatory practices, How can a
group such as the Revisionist Zionist Alternative be S.A.
recognized? Why is this man deemed a visionary? If this is
the case, will other groups on campus invite other re
tionary individuals or groups to campus in order to freely
express their opinions, such as the John Birch Society, the
Klu Klux Klan, or the American Nazi Party?

Miscarried justice

To the Editor:

In his letter to the editor, Steven Cohen asked some very,
important questions, The third on his list, which would be
the first on mine, was whether the accused was actually
guilty of the rape, This question is, however, also the
easiest to answer! If the accused wasn't guilty, Why was he
put on disciplinary and residence hall probation’

After this fact is brought to light, the question of why the
assilantis still on campus and not in jail comes up. With the
case now officially closed, with the transcripts destroyed,
and with an agreement keeping those present at the hearing
from reproducing anything sald at the hearing makes it ims
iderstand all that actually happened. The fact

Tg Out a seemingly trivial and misunderstood punishment,
at the same time recognizes the accused as gullty and acts as
if the crime was nowhere near as bad as plagiarism or ad-
vanced vandalism, The university, by trivializing the crime
in this way, is almost an accomplice to the crime,

Mr, Cohen's appeal to the university to lift the fog of
confusion surrounding this case in particular and thelr
policy towards rape on campus in general is well considered
and should be so on the part of the university administra~
tion, A relevant response could be made by the university
which shouldn't damage Ms, Shapito or reveal the identity
of the assailant, | would like nothing better than to have my
belief that the university has been negligent to be proven
wrong,

One other aspect may be brought up as well, If Ms.
Shapito is correct in stating that her delay in reporting the
crime made i impossible for her to find justice in a court of
Jaw, then it is possible that those involved misinterpreted a
natural hesitation to report such a humiliating experience to
anyone else to be indecision as to whether Ms, Shapiro felt
that a crime has actually been committed, This is not mere-
ly an unfortunate possibility should be looked into.

Liberal goals

To the Editor:

Tam writing in respnse to a recent editorial entitled Batt!-
ing ROTC by Elissa Stein (19 October, 1982), 1 took par-
ticular exception to her comments that ROTC training
methods conflict with the goals of this university and that
{1 is almost impossible to adapt the goals of liberal arts
university and an ROTC program simultaneously.”

Ms. Stein states that the goals of this university are 10
each the student to “think analytically, use Initiative,
make decisions, and question ideas," Ms, Stein seems to
think that ROTC conflicts with these goals, She is blatantly
Wrong! ROTC teaches analytical thinking, and decision-
making abilities. It challenges us to improve our minds and
thought processes by making us ascertain viable solutions
{0 various problems posed. This is right in keeping with Ms,
Stein's stated goals of this university,

‘As for her second comment that the goals of a liberal arts
university and an ROTC program don't go together, she Is
completely wrong, 1 maintain that quite the opposite is

true} that by eliminating this fleld of education ( Military
cience ) the goals of a liberal arts university are nol
enhanced, but rather they would be curtailed, The major
oal of a liberal arts education is 10 provide a broad-based,
Well-rounded education, In liberal arts colleges such as
Albany, students are afforded the opportunity to take
Courses in music, theater, and art; not all students do,
however, in the interest of providing the opportunity for a
Wellrounded education, these courses are offered, Then,
also in the interest of a liberal arts education, courses in
military science should be offered t0 those who wish (0 take
thei, Ms, Stein should recall what John Milton wrote in
his Tratace on Education, ‘'1-call therefore a complete and
sation that which fits a man to perform justly,
I the offices, both private

generous edu
skillfully and magnanimously,
and public, of peace and war,

For these reason Ms. Stein, the thought of removing
ROTC from the SUNY campus should be unthinkable
ROTC provides much more to this university than It takes

results at the
NYSAIAW match

Members of the Albany State
women’s tennis team and other
Division 111 schools in the east met
this weekend at Rochester to com-
pete for individual fall season
champlonships in the NYSAIAW
tournament,

Based on their record during the
course of the year, nol much ap-
parently was expected from the
Danes, But instead they played very
well and surprised quite a few peo-
ple,

Playing in the first singles
bracket, Albany's Joan Phillips
easily defeated her first round op-
ponent, Hartwick's number one
player, 6-1, 6-2. Her fine play con-
tinued in the second round where
she thoroughly dominated a wom
from Queens College, 6:0, 6-
was the best I've played in years,"
Phillips reflected.

During the third round of the
tournament however, Phillips was
confronted with the formidable
task of playing the tournament's
{op-seed and eventual first singles
champion. It was here that Phillips
was eliminated, 6-1, 6-1

Jessica Treadway, Albany's other
singles ry, likewise enjoyed a
felatively successful tournament,

‘Harriers run firstin

By Tracey Carmichael

The women's cross-country (eam came through
‘once again for Head Coach Ron White with a first
place score of 24 at the Capital District Cross-Country
Championship held in Schenectady's Central Park,
Saturday afternoon, Union College was second in the
meet with a score of 39 and R,P.I, followed with a 65,

The Harriers’ performance was by far the young
team's most impressive of the year, White was im-
pressed with the depth and strength of the squad's ef-
fort. "To have five runners within a4l second spread is
quite tremendous," he said,

This was the first time the Danes have won the
Capital District meet. White felt this type of team ef-
fort is what is needed to complete a successful year,

Individually, freshman Kathy McCarthy pulled
through once again, taking second place overall with a
time of 16:20, just five seconds short of Union's senior
runner, Inge Stockman, McCarthy was very pleased

with her time and is looking forward to next week's
meet, when Stockman won't have the home course ad-
vantage,

Also contributing to Albany's fine performance
were Siobhan Griffen with a 16:40 time and fourth
place, Donna Burnham, who took fifth place with
16:44; Kathy Kurthy timing in at 16:47, putting her in
sixth place; and Bette Dyamba finishing seventh place
overall with a time of 17:06,

White explained that the course was shorter than the
Usual five kilometers, but the 2,8 miles course made
for a quicker race,

Next week's New York State Championship meet
held at Geneseo will provide a good test of the team's
strength and depth, The meet will also prepare the har-
riers for the NCAA's to be held at Fredonia and the
Eastern Regional at Holy Cross, taking place later on,

White is very optimistic about his young team and
feels this week's meet was a good indication of the
power the team possesses. Q

Men booters defeat Vassar, 3-2

By Mare Schwarz
EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

The Albany State men’s soccer team arrived at

Vassar College Saturday expecting any easy win, They
left with a 3-2 win thanks mainly to excellent goalten-
ding by Lance Harvey and a goal by Malt McSherry
with fess than five minutes {0 go in the game.
“It wasn't very exciting,"” sald Head Coach Bill
Schieffelin on the win that improved the Danes record
to 4-5-3 with two games remaining on their schedule.
“Lately it seems when we play well, we don't win and
when we don’t play well, we win,"?

Harvey was the key to the Dane victory, according
to Schieffelin, Replacing starting goalie Tom Merritt
for the first time this season at the start of the second
half, Harvey made nine saves including two on Vassar
breakaways with less than 10 minutes left in regulation
time. “If it wasn't for Lance, we wouldn't have won
the game," said Schieffelin,

Michael Miller opened up the scoring with his first
goal of the year, unassisted at 6:40. Vassar tied it up at
Il:41 as John Levi scored the first of his two goals.
Jerry Isaacs took a pass form John Isselhard and beat
goalie D. Richardson at 29:13.

his second goal
ater, Isaacs was
y area, giving the Danes an ex-
cellent scoring chance, Terry Bacchus was unable to

Levi evened the score at two, scoring

convert the penalty kick into a goal, The Danes
prevented the game from going into overtime as Isaacs
took a pass from Bacchus, broke down the left side
drawing the keeper out of the goal, A pass across the
box was drilled in:o the open net by McSherry. Matt
McSherry really showed poise on that play.’ said
Schieffelin, ‘He just keeps on showing how really im-
proved a player he is.”

However, Schieffelin felt the team as whole played a
sloppy game, “We should have dominated, It was a
game We were supposed to win We fell we could do
Whatever we wanted,"” he said, "I guess we started toy-
ing with them, We broke away from our pattern type
offense and got into a run-and-gun type games, play-
ing very sloppy defense.""

Merritt will back in goal when the Danes travel to

esday, ‘Tommy understood why 1
lurday. It wasn't a penalty against
him, I just felt that if the team couldn't play well for
their reserve goalie, then what??? commented Schief-
felin. ‘Lance did a great job for us. Hopefully 1 can
Use him in the second half against R.P.I.'"

The Danes have passed the first step in their three
fame test, Two wins or a win and a tie will launch
Albany to the .500 mark or above. Their coach’s 12
ning streak is on the line, and the Danes ap-
and willing to extend it. Albany finishes the
on Saturday against North Adams follow-

match with R.P.t, t

Valuable Player, Buzz Brothers’ pitcher, Kenny
Glassmen, held the Icemen by striking out four batters
while collecting two hits, Captain Nick Fennell of the
Buzz Brothers talking about Tim Chase said, "Tim has
varsity potential, he is very smooth and solid,"

Intramural President Mike Brusco, who was wat-
ching the game had this to say about Buzz Brothers!
pitcher Kenny Glassmen, ‘Kenny was really on today,
He kept the ball low and fast, | was equally impressed
with Buzz Brother first basemen Rich Westerberg. He
goes C0 the oppasite field better than anybody I've
seen." Westerberg proved Brusco's statement by get-
ting three opposite field hits including a home run, The
Buzz Brothiers finished with a perfect 16-0 record,

OCTOBER 26, 1982

Rival Cadets teach Danes tough lesson, 21-7

Baars Hip
Northfield, Vt.

Missing the services of starting quarter-
back Tom Pratt and defensive tackle Jim
Canfield, the Albany State Great Danes in-
yaded Norwich University's Sabine Field
Saturday only to be taught a bilter and cost-
ly lesson; you just can't afford to be
against a proven rival,

The lesson, administered by the Norwich
Cadets, was bitter in that it resulted in a 21-7
Albany loss. It was costly in that it may well
have dashed any hopes Head Coach Bob
Ford and crew had of attending the NCAA
playoffs this season,

“We were just flat,’ said linebacker Ed
Eastman, who played an excellent game
compensating for the loss of the injured
Canfield up front. ‘Losing the game isn't
the worst part of it, Now miracles are going
to have to happen if we want to go to the
playoffs"?

The Danes are now 4-2 and two losses in
& nine-game schedule may be sufficient to
squash reasonable playoff expectations.
Last season, coincidentally, important
Juries also had @ hand in Albany's destiny
as the Danes lost to Cortland immediately
after they had lost Pratt (o Buffalo in the
preceding the game,

“It was just like the Cortland game Jast
year when we went out with key injuries,’
said Sophomore runningback Dave Soldini,
“They (Norwich) came out ready and we
were flat,'”

“Albany seems to be a team we get up
for," said Norwich head coach Barry
Mynter whose Gadels improved their
record to 3-4 with Saturday's victory In this
eight renewal of the rivalry.

“They kicked our butts," added Ford.
"The only good thing that can be said
about the game was that It wasn't as bad in
the second half as it was in the first half,"

And it was bad in the first half, So
bad, in fact, that the Cadets walked into the
Jockerroom with a 304-75 yard advantage in
total offertse, The Danes were lucky to
enter intermission only trailing by {4 points.

Leading the Cadet offensive charge \
Mynter's midseason insertion into the star-
ting lineup at tailback, Winfield Brooks.
He gained 161 yards on 31 carries including
two touchdown bolts.

“You can't weigh the guy of his con-
tributions," commented Mynter, ‘He's
just tremendous.’*

The Danes, forced to adjust their defense
to try to contain Brooks, allowed quarter-
back Daye O'Neil to open his passing game.

‘After Dane kicker Tom Lincoln missed a
38-yard field goal attempt, the Cadets tooks
over and their well-balanced offense began
to roll, O'Neil handed off to the freshman
tailback, Brooks, who carried for 13 yards.
The passer then hit split end Steve Spano,
an Albany area product who gained 109
yards recelving, for ten more, O'Neil
followed with his other favorite receiver,
Beal Almodobar, connecting for a big
22-yard gainer. Almodobar pulled in nine
passes worth 142 yards, Two plays later
Brooks scurried 18 yards into the Albany
end zone setting off the Norwich Howitzer
artillery, blasted after every home score,
Ant Dwyyer's extra point was successful and
the Cadets lead 7-0,

Junior Tom Roth started at quarterback,
playing nearly the entire first quarter. Ford
put in his other substitute passer, south paw
Eric Liley, early in the second quarter, Liley
was sacked very quickly and, on third and Il
his completed toss to Soldini could not get
the Danes a first down,

The Cadets (ook the ball over on their

‘own 40-yard line and, on a thrid and short
situation, the ball was given to Brooks
again, The freshman made a move outside
after nearly being stopped near the line of
serimmage, Once out in the open field,
Brooks was uncatchable, running $4 yards
for Norwich's second score of the game.
Dwyer's extra point was sandwiched by the
sound of Howitzer fire as the Cadets in-
ereased the lead (0 14-0,
“They used some blocking schemes we
hadn't seen before, They went up the mid-
dle and just took it to us in the first half!”
sald Eastman, offering reasons how the
Norwich offense was able to generate so
much offense against the usually tough
Albany 4-4 defense,

Albany could not capitalize on several
late first half breaks, Several plays after
defensive back Daye Hardy recovered a ball
fumbled by Almodobar deep in Albany ter-
ritory, a Norwich offsides gave the Danes
extended life on a fourth down punting
situation, However, Cadet defensive end
Mike Bender responded accordingly by
dumping Roth, back in at quarterback, for
a loss and the Danes were forced to yield
the ball

The Danes! offense seemed to awaken
from its virtual dormancy late in the half
when junior halfback John Dunham took
an option pitch from Roth and headed up
the sideline for an Il-yard gain. Roth was
shaken up on the play and Liley took ove
But the Danes were stalled in their last s
cond bid at putting points on the

Spikers continue winning ways

increasing their

By Ilise Levine

The Albany State women’s volleyball
team continued their winning season last
Saturday beating all four of their op-
ponents and increasing their record to 22-6

‘TheSpikers began the match against Pace
and although they got off to a slow start,
the team came back to beat their opponents
soundly with the scores 9-15, 15-4, and
15-2, They also beat both Potsdam and
Clarkson 15-3, 15-6 and 15-2, 15-3 respec-
tively, in five grueling hours of volleyball
matches,

Last week, the team played a series of
tough road games, racking up some more
victories in the win column, The Danes beat
Oneonta 15-3, 15-7, but narrowly lost to
Cortland. Giving up the first game 11-15,
Albahy came back in the second, 15-7, and,
lost the third game in a close 15-17 battle.

‘The Danes faired better at the Springfield

record to 22-6

Open Tournament last Saturday. Facing
three tough opponents, the spikers con-
sistently played well taking two out of three
matches, Albany dropped the first match to
Smith College, the tournament's second
place team, 15-9, 11-15, 8-15. Albany also
defeated Division Il team, Hartford, 15-6
16-4, as well as, the University of Vermont,
15-3 15-1. The Danes then went on to play
Colgate in the quarterfinals but lost by the
scores 14-16, 7-15,

"We started out poorly, and work our
way up," said Head Coach Pat Dwyer

On October 14, the Danes played what
Dwyer called, ‘‘the best game of the season
‘against our toughest opponent, Everyone
on the team had an outstanding game,’?
The team was West Point, ranked eigh-
teenth nationally in NCAA Division II. The
Spikers beat them in three straight 15-10

15-11 and 15-9,

scoreboard and were forced to accept the
14-0 halftime deficit.

The Cadets kept pounding in the second

The only goal of the game was scored by Plattsburgh at 2:30 in the second period by
Allison Jenks. The shot was a high kick and the Dane Booters let it bounce into the

During the game, Plattsburgh had 16 shots-on-goal and Albany had 11, Head Coach
Amy Kidder felt the team should have won but Plattsburgh was successfully clearing

It was a very frustrating game for both players and coach because Albany lost to Plat-

“It was 0-0 at half time, the game could have gone either way, but just didn’t put

Israeli speakers discuss Middle East conflicts

Rabinovich reveals flaws in Israeli war strategy

__By Ellen Santasiero

The nature and consequences of the war
in Lebanon were the topics addressed by
guest lecturer Itamar Rabinovich in the
Campus Center on Tuesday. Rabinovich, a
Visiting professor of Middle Eastern Studies
at Cornell University, is from Tel Aviv
University

The special advisor of the Knesset com
mittee on Israeli and Lebanese affairs, he
directs the Shiloah Institute for Middle

astern Affairs at Tel Aviv. Rabinovich
was invited to speak by the JSC-Hillel com-
mittee, Students for Israel

The professor began with a brief account
of the cause of the Lebanese war, saying
the war was initiated by Israel due to the
PLO in South Lebanon having capabilities
to bomb North Lebanon,

The Isracli check on the PLO was the on-
ly alternative, he believed. Communications
had not produced any results so Israel
resorted to taking military action against
the PLO, he said

The war is a yery controversial one as it
entails complex political ends, said
Rabinovich, Israel has become divided over
the war and the Palestinian issue, An im-
portant factor, he said, is that Israel has
received more media coverage than other
recent conflicts, which has been to her
disadvantage, Because the PLO strategical
ly placed itself in civilian towns, Israeli war
atrocities were easily sensationalized by the
media, he said,

Rabinovich went on to point out the

flaws in Israeli planning, one being heavy
reliance on the Phalangists and Bashir
Gemayel, The war could have been more
limited, but the original plan of the war, to
go 25 miles into Lebanon and enter Beirut,
gol extended, said Rabinovich, alluding 10
the lengthening image of a telescope. Ac-
cording to Rabinovich, Israel has come
under a lot of fire for these flaws,

He stressed that the war should be looked
at in a broad context due to the nature of
the PLO. Describing the organization as
haying the ‘paraphernalia for state,’’
Rabinovich said that the PLO ‘ceases to be
guerilla’? and becomes the ‘master of their
own defeat." The outcome of this war will
show the PLO as a military loser,
Rabinovich said, but a political winner as
Well because the media has bolstered their
position,

Terrorist acts by the PLO will be curtail-
ed by this war, said Rabinovich, as the PLO
will lose their major base. He added,
however, that there are always terrorist
groups, even in peace time. The reason
Rabinovich gaye for the PLO's continued
activity since the 1981 cease-fire is their in-
terpretation of the cease-fire to mean that
they were restricted to fight across the
border, but could penetrate elsewhere,

Rabinovich touched on the Beirut
massacre, declaring Defense Minister Ariel
Sharon's decision to send Phalangists into
the camps was politically unsound

In answer to why Israel is selling arms {0

reasons and Israel's interest in making a

Rabinovich remarked that everyone has
something to say about U,S.-Israeli rela-
tions and went on to define U.S, interest in
Israel, Israel provides the U.S. with
strategic and financial information worth
billions of dollars, Rabinovich said, adding
that the U,S, also has a moral commitment
to Israel as it is a demooratic, pro-Western
nation, and is the only representation of the
U.S. in the Middle East, The only trouble
with this, Rabinovich noted, was that with
time, officials change along with interest
