“Because Ithinkitis now vital that
spring training get under way
without further delay, 1 have
directed that all camps be opened at
the carliest possible time,” Kuhn
said.

“While nobody is more disap-
pointed than I that we do not have
solid progress to a final agreement,
the fans are the most important peo-
ple around and their interests: now
become paramount, Opening the
camps and starting the season on
time is what they want.”

Kuhn hadsaid last week, under his

in and order the camps opened. At
that time, he said he wouldiintervene
if there was no progress.

However, this week, while in
Florida, site of previous negotiation
sessions, Kuhn said he would step in
if he saw progress andthe campsstill
remained closed.

The owners had announced on
February 23 that the camps would be
closed indefinitely until there was a

agreement.

Although Marvin Miller, ex-
cutive director of the players’ un-
ion, had called for Kuhn to step in
‘and order the camps opened, they
remained closed.

This would indicate that the
owners had not seen sufficient
progress.

A. spokesman for the com-
missioner said Kuhn had pretty
much made up his mind before
Miller's announcement Wenesday
that the union's executive board
would decline to take action on the
owners’ final proposal,

Committee Informed

The spokesman said the com-
missioner made up his mind and
then informed the Player Relations
Committee, the bargaining agent for
the owners

Because of the number of players
in the spring training areas, the
spokesman felt the camps, in one
form or another, could be opened on
‘Thursday.

John Gaherin, chief bargaining
agent for the owners, has been asked
to advise the clubs Wednesday as to
the procedures to be followed in in-
viting the players to camp.

‘A meeting of owners is scheduled
for Saturday in New York.

In Tampa, the 24 elected represen-
Latives of the major league clubs also
‘asked that the Federal Mediation
and Conciliation Service be brought
into the negotiations.

Kuhn Orders Camps To Open ‘Without Delay’

‘The representatives also asked
that the basic agreement, which has
expired, be extended until a new
‘agreement can be arranged and that
the no-strike, no-lockout provision
be reinstated.

The resolution strongly urged
owners to open spring training
camps, which have been closed dur-
ing the negotiating process.

‘The tone of the executive board's
resolution was in sharp contrast to
the militant stance taken by Miller
and somic 30 players at an informal
review of the offer Tuesday in St.
Petersburg.

Miller said at that time that he
would recommend rejection and a
reading of the players’ sentiment led
him to believe that the players were
of the same mind,

John Gaherin, chief negotiator for
the owners, said his Player Relation
Committee was “advising the clubs
by Teletype how they should func-
tion in the way of inviting players
and what particular spring training
allowances should be in effect.”

However, indications were that
most clubs would get under way
Thursday or Friday.

Teams that expressed a desire to
start serious training Thursday in-
cluded the Boston Red Sox, Califor-
Angels, Cincinnati Reds,

‘Communism aa heresay to the ideals. -
of Marx and Lenin, ;

In a major speech Wednesday
night, chief Soviet ideologist
Mikhail A. Suslov spoke of the
‘Westerners in almost the same terms
the Soviets have used for their chief
ideological rival, Maoist China. The
Soviels have now told both groups
that Moscow's understanding of
‘Communist ideology is the right one
‘and that the Soviet Union will not
meet them halfway on practical and
‘theoretical questions.

‘A leading Kremlin spokesman,
Yyri Zhukov, had declared in his
regular television program last
‘Saturday night that talk of a full split
between Moscow and the Western
parties—particularly the Frenchand
Italian Communists—is a concoc-
tion of the capitalist news media.

Both the French and Italian Com-
munists are publicly committed to
pursuing their own brands of
Marxism-Leninism as well as to
parliamentary means of achieving
power. The formula appears to be
paying off with regional electoral
victories in both NATO countries,

‘Officials,  apprebensi
about the way the tide might turn,
have warned that any Communist
participation in national govern

Rome repeated the warning Thurs-
day, and French Premier Jacques

dressed to France amounted to “un-
called for intervention by the
‘Asnerican authorities in the internal
affairs of our country.” *

Whether the split between the
Kremlin and the Italian and French
parties is complete or not, Moscow's
relations with the Western parties
appear to be at their lowest public
ebb ever. Atop Czechoslovak Com-
munist official, Josef Kempny,
sounded a similar warning against

idependent-minded parties last
weekend in a speech in northern

paign. Romania, however, has been

jet Academy of Sciences.

Suslov's assertion cuts against @
series of recent statements by French
‘and Italian Communist party leaders
who have called for respect for the
autonomy of each Communist party
and recognition of national
differences.

Gaston Plissonnier, second
secretary of the French Communist
party, stressed in his speech to the
25th Soviet party congress Feb. 28
that his party wants “socialism in
French colors.”

Italian party leader Enrico

SUNYA Gets a New Name

bby Phil Molter

What's in a name? Apparently
SUNYA administrators have decid-
ed that concrete by any other nameis
just as white, and so from now on
this campus will be known as The
University at Albany.

The shortened name will accom-
pany a new logo, or trademark, on
all university press reteases, internal
documents, and the like.

“State University of New York at
Albany continues to be the formal ti-
tle of the institution,” according to
Vice President for University Affairs
Lewis Welch. “The logo is keyed (0 a
short informal title for the campus,
designed to sharpen the identifica-
tion of the campus in Albany,” ex-
plained Welch. “It is a problem
which | think has occurred to many
people over the past 15 years, since
¢ designation of units within
SUNYA was adopted.”

It may not be a problem at other
SUNY colleges, but here the
presence of so many state-connected
organizations, ie, the SUNY
Chancellor's Office, University of
the State of New York (Education
Department), necessitates the use of
a distinctive name for SUNYA,

The new logo was designed by
Bruce Stewart of the Community
Relations Office and, according to
Welch, the design has actually been
in moderate use for about a year. It
has appeared in several campus
publications, including the Tower
Tribune.

‘Some questions have arisen con-
cerningth: cost of adoptingthelogo,
Welch denies that adopting the new
design will incur any great costs for
the university

“We're not going to throw
anything away, we'llsimply begin in-
troducing {the name and logo) ap-
propriately,” Welch explained. “It
doesn't involve redoing anything, 1
think it will make an attractive
letterhead, and sinee we print it
ourselves, litle change in cost will be
felt.”

According to Welch, entrance
signs, etc., will be changed only as
they would normally be refurbished.

“| don't anticipate {the change) to
come overnight, or even over the
course of a few weeks or months,
since so many groups are involved,”
commented Welch, “but in the near
future it should serve to clear up any
problems with identification which

we have had.”

groups of “dirty tricks," in a report
to the press Friday. NYPIRG dis-
covered that an anti-ERA group,
Operation Wake-up, had filed «
financial statement with the State
Board of Elections accounting for a
total of $5,000. This figure appeared
too low in light of the $150,000
reported by pro-ERA groups and
the devastating defeat of the bill.
Further Investigation
NYPIRG looked into the matter
further and found that no other
groups, such as the John Birch
Society (JBS), The Young
Americans for Freedom, or the Con-
servative Party, which were later dis-
covered to be working with Opera-
tion Wake-up in its quest to defeat
the ERA, filed such statements with
the State Board of Elections. JBS
and Young Americans for Freedom
justified their failure to file by claim=

because both are politically active

Vice President for University Af-

the materials consulted by the
Presidential Task Force on

destroyed as charged by Student
Association President Andy
Bauman.

‘The denial was conveyed via a
special reply delivered tothe Albany
Student Press, a few hours after
Bauman voicedthe charge duringhis
Thursday press conference.

Welch. speaking for the ad-
ministration, said that*the materials

pleted by the Task Force." He said
that he president asked those
Senate bodies to examine the ef-
ficacy and integrity of the Task
Force processes.”

Bauman criticized the administra-
tion for cutting the faculty, while
maintaining administrative
positions, Welch replied, “Over two-
thirds, of the personnel cuts
recommended by President Fields
were in administrative support
areas; fess than one-third were in
teaching faculty.”

In regards to complaints about the
Nursing phase-out, Welch said,
“Presidem Fick us indicated

of the methods used by the Task

more than two positions from the
administration, while cutting 96
positions from all other areas of the
university, Bauman also criticized
the decision to phase out the nursing

point of the conference was to point

In reference to the rally Tuesday,

They stated that the ERA would
mandate the use of uni-sex toilets,
endorse homosexual marriages, and

According to Paul Hudson, a

Marijuana Law Reform Discussed

by Amy S. Cohen

“An ounce of marijuana can still
get you 15 years in New York State,”
said Robert Voorhis, author of The
Truth About Marijuana, He and
Mark Travis, « full-time lobbyist for
NYPIRG from SUNY at Buffalo,
spoke about pot reform to a small
audience Wednesday night in the
Campus Center Assembly Hall

According to Travis, NYPIRG
advocates decriminalization of mari-
juana rather than legalization
because society is not ready to accept
marijuana therefore there is no
political chance for such a total
change.

More and more groups havecome
cout in support of decriminalization,
includingthe American Bar Associa-
tion, the American Medical Associa
tion, as well as certain religious
organizations.

NYPIRG is turning to the student
populace for further support, They
hope to change the penalty for
possession of two ounces or less of
marijuana, and for the sale of the
same amount, toafine of $100 rather

than a jail sentence.

Pot reform was the subject discussed by Robert Voorhis, author of

‘away for awhile,” said undergrad
Jim Buchanan as he voiced his
Feasons for entering military service
in 1970,

For senior Steve Arnold, the
motivation was a draft number of 6,
failing high school grades and an
‘engagement to a girl inthe Army.To
Joe Tabaco, the Air Force had been
way out of a stagnant social scene
of hanging out and committing petty
crimes and pranks.

SUNYA's veteran population. They
Joined the service for varied reasons
and have different complaints about
working for Uncle Sam. Now they
are students taking advantage of
veterans’ educational benefits, and
although adjustments have been
hard they are glad they are served.

Back in 1967, Tabaco’s friends in
New Hyde Park, Long Island would
“steal a car and leave the hubcaps,”
or go down to Greenwich Village
and “roll a fag.”

Tabaco had little interest in
school work then, except for
technical courses like auto shop and
computer programming. He didn't
have the grades for college, and he
didn't see any sense in it.

Buchanan disliked the Navy,
which he says wouldn’t let him be an
individual. He was reprimanded for
hitchhiking back to base, and once
denied permission to say good-bye,
on his last night in the service, to a
buddy on-duty.

said he felt

group had to spend Christmas and

killing time in the Philippines.

‘Arnold disliked the Army’s make-
work details, like painting ‘rocks
white on top and black on the bot-
tom.He was also bothered bythe Ar-
my's “spending $10,000 to[have me]
learn a language, then sending me to
Colorado to wash trucks.”

Tabaco spoke of a fellow ser-
viceman “promised Hawaii” upon
entry but given four years of
Brooklyn's Floyd Bennet’s naval ait
station instead. Now it all seems
worth it, Presently, the Veterans Ad-
ministration gives Buchanan $270
monthly for 45 months of un-
dergraduate work. And on a per-
sonal level, Buchanan thanks the
Navy “for giving me the kick in the
ass I needed.

Tobaco tells of friends given a
choice of ‘the Marines or jail’ lear-
ningaskill inthe Corps, and then go-
ing on to open a garage or motorcy-
cle shop in civilian life. In Tabaco's
old neighborhood “no one,” in-

Poor intelligence brought the Un-
ited States to the brink of a Mideast
war in 1973, but the same inept deci-
sion makers have yet to be replaced,
the House Intelligence Committee
has concluded.

In Vietnam, the committee adds,
intelligence decisions constituted
some of the greatest misjudgments of
the war,

‘The committee's 338-page report
on American intelligence
operations, especially the CIA, was
published in part last month in the
New York City weekly The Village
Voice and was reprinted in the
Schenectady weekly The New
Citizen.

Al of the CIA's and Defense In-
telligence Agency's technology and
human skills were focused on the
Mideast in October, 1973, but their
performances were complete
failures, the committee said. On Oct.
6, 1973, Egypt and Syria launched a
major assault across the Suez Canal
and Golan Heights against a stunned
Israel, The war cost Americans in
terms of a U.S.-Soviet confrontation
that took place three weeks later and

The CIA's principal conclusions
concerning possible hostile actions
at that time “were quite simply, ob-
viously and starkly wrong,” accor-
ding to the committee.

particularly bad period for Arab-

for political reasons, would ‘be
strongly tempted to resort to arms if
talks proved fruitless. “Resumption
of hostilities by autumn will become
a better than even bet” if diplomacy
fails, the report said.

into written reports so voluminous,

some of the reports were gross un-

In Vietnam, the CLA and other it

billion spent on intelligence each
year.

Death for Thousands

Intelligence was unable to adapt
to.an unconventional war in 1968,
spelling, perhaps, death for
thousands of Americans in the Tet
offensive.”

Taking advantage of the Viet-
namese lunar holiday, the North
Vietnamese and Viet Cong forces
launched an all-out offensive on Jan,
30, 1968, against virtually every ur-
ban center of South Vietnam.

“The greatest misjudgment of the
war," the committee said, was caus-
ed by “our degraded image of the
enemy.”

Disputes between the Militar
Assistance Command in Vietnam
and the CIA created false percep-
tions of the enemy, U.S. forces faced
and prevented measurement of
changes in enemy strength over time,
‘Also, pressure from policy making
officials to produce positive i
{elligence indicators reinforced
erroneous assessments of allied
progress and enemy capabilities,

“The numbers game not only
diverted a direct confrontation with
the realities of war in Vietnam, but
also prevented the intelligence com~
munity, perhaps the President, and
certainly members of Congress,
from judging the real changes in
‘Vietnam over time,”

WITCH RIGHTS

‘The Colorado Civil Rights Com-
mission has scheduled a hearing ater
this month to decide if a woman can
be fired from her job simply because
she is a witch.

Kathy Estes, the mother of two,
who was fired from herjobas a hotel
cashier, claims she was dismissed
simply because she admits practicing

FORIEGN MADNESS

High Times Magazine has
Published a letter in its current

witchcraft in the privacy of her own. (March) issue containing more

home,

She had asked to be reinstated un-
der the Colorado State Civil Rights
Law which prohibits discrimination
‘on the basis of race, sex, creed or
religion. Estes claims she was fired
on the basis of her creed.

Estes was dismissed from her job
after a male employee allegedly
received a dead flower in the mail,
and the hotel management inter-
preted this as an attempt by Estes to
cast some kind of hex.

Estes states she does not practice
black magic or cast hexes. She says
“I didn’t (go to work] in black robes.

home. And J want my job back”.

PATRIOTIC LENSES

Bicentennial contact lenses featuring

allegations about the reported tor-
ture of Americans in Mexican j

The etter, which is just one of
dozens of eyewitness reports
reaching the US in recent months,
alleges that agents of: the US Drug
Enforcement Adninistration have
been present when American in-
mates were brutally tortured.

The letter-writer, identified as
Robyn Everman, writing from the
Santa Marta Prison in Mexico City,
claims that in one instance, an
American grandmother was made to
stand barefoot in cold water while
she was repeatedly shocked on the
Benitals

Everman adds that electric cattle
prods are commonly used against in-
mates, none of whom has ever been
permitted to contact an attorney.

‘The letter-writer specifically iden-
tifies one DEA agent named Arthur
lo, badge number 1944, as be-
ing present during a particularly
brutal torture session of a young
male inmate.

US officials in Mexico, who at
first denied that such torture was go-
ing on, now admit toit, but say they
are powerless to intercede.

by edward golden

cotics.

Berkeley, California, Police Chief
Wesley Pomeroy, considered one of
the Nation's top law enforcement ex-
perts on drug abuse, told a Bay Area
seminar last week that he favors the
decriminalization notonly of heroin
but of all other illicit narcotics as
well.

Pomeroy stated he considered
drug abuse a “medical problem”
that “cops should not be involved
in.”

The Berkeley Police Chief said he
believes that current drug laws are
essentially dishonest and promote
drug abuse and crime, Pomeroy is a
former director with the Drug Abuse
Council, a private research and

education foundation in

SUPERMAN ROBBED

Police in Long Beach, California,
report that Superman has been tied
up and robbed.

The victim in this case was not the
real man of steel, but 62-year-old
Michael Superman who was at home
with his wife and a friend,

Superman states that two “grub-

by looking” men suddenly burst
through the door, tied the three up
with adhesive tape and made off with
nearly $10,000 in goods.

Unlike in the comic -books,

however, Superman did not give

chase; instead, after finally freeing
himself, Superman, exhausted and
shaken, telephoned the police for

help.

FILLED JAILS

You've heard of “No Vacancy”
signs, but in jail? Gloria Kent, was
sentenced to serve a 75-day jail term
in Bend, Oregon, recently, but she's
having trouble getting a reservation
for a cell.

Kent, who works during
weekdays, was given permission by
the judge to “do her time” on
weekends for various drug-related
charges,

Kent attempted to do so on the
following weekend, but was turned
away from the prison by officials
who said there was no room in the
‘County's only jail cell for women.

For several months Kent
telephoned Deschutes County
Sheriff F, Sholes each week to sec if
cell space was available, and every
weekend he denied her request to go
to jal

Finally, several weeks ago, the no
vacancy sign went down, and Kent
has been allowed to complete six
days of her sentence, Sheriff Sholes
says, however, that he can't estimate
how long it might take the womanto
finally put in all of her 75 juil days,

POSTAL SERVICE

SECRET

California Congressman Charles
Wilson saysthat the U.S. Post Office
maintains a secret depot in Detroit
where it hides packages that have
been badly damaged by the Postal
Service,

According to Wilson, who toured
the facility earlier this week, the
thousands of parcels and packages
areso badly defaced and such anem-
barrassment to the Post Office, they
fare kept under guard behind a 12-
foot fence so the public can't see
them.

Wilson says that his visit to the
compound confirmed what he term-
ed “Horror Stories” related to him
by postal workers, Wilson says that
“Ifthe public could gothrough these
bulk mail centers themselves and see
the packages, they'd be terribly dis-
turbed at what the Postal Service is
doing to them,”

To the Editor:
‘As one of many students who participated
«inthe March 16th march and rally to fight cut-
backs inthe SUNY system, J was appalled at
the manner in which the news media chose to
portray the incident. The coverage of this
neat take-over of the State Capitol,” to quote
‘an enlightened anctiorman, was so grossly ex-
‘aggerated that it was not only obtrusively bias-
ed, but teetered precariously on the brink of
fiction,

It would seem tothase whose only exposure
to this situation was by way of the media, that
it was by design that this “terrible violence”
took place, The notion of disrupting the
legislature, breaking into locked buildings,
etc, was nowhere clote to the intent of those
who marched, though various other factions
which attending might (and obviously did)
have motivations other than our own. The un-
fortunate part is that throughout the news
coverage the participants were referred to as
“university students” and in Albany that can
only bring one group to mind.

The intent of those SUNYA students who
‘were present, and that of any representative of
any SUNY school for that matter, was simply
to illustrate our solidarity in opposition to the
extensive budget cuts now facing the SUNY
system. Unfortunately again, the reasons why
the students were gathered at the Capitol were
omitted entirely and were not brought out on
any of the “major” Albany stations. Nor did
any of the reports find it necessary to speak to
student leaders, though police representatives
fhad much to say concerning “the worst stu-
dent violence they've ever seen; including the
sixtics”—Does Kent State ring a bell?

It was also seported that two or three hun-
dred people were responsible for entering and
disrupting the Capitol, This is the truth. Vir-
tually ignored was the fact that thousands—
yes, thousands—of students had peacefully
assembled outside the Capitol to express the
feeling that they deserve to be granted
reasonably sound education. It was these
students who should have been significant!
These thousands of students should have, at
the very least, been as prominent intheeyes of
the media as was the miniscule number of
agitators inside,

The myth that violent action is the only
viable means by which a voice, in a media-
oriented society can be heard is merely in-
furiating. The fact that the media glorifies,
verifies and perpetuates this notion, though, is
as blatantly disdainful and sickening as can be
conceived,

prove me wrong, You see, college wheelchair
basketball teams do exist! That's right, those
crazy fools get on a full-size court and run, or

‘There has been a great deal of rhetoric oc-
curring on campus during the past two weeks
concerning the impending budget cuts
recommended by the President's Task Force
and, more recently, President Fields’ endorse-
‘ment of those recommendations. Having read
nothing but criticisms of these recommen-
dations [ feel it is my responsibility to speak
for the so-called “silent majority.”

The Student Association estimated that
4,000 students from the SUNY system would
take part in the march on the Capitol on
March 16th, I'l report what they failed to
acknowledge: namely, that of a SUNY pop-
ulation of approximately 400,000 students,
the 4,000 demonstrators comprise only 1% of
those enrolled in the SUNY system.

Now, I don’t want to leave you with the im-
pression that 99% of the students are in favor
of the cuts so I'll concede that of this total a
certain proportion of the students either had
prior commitments, no desire to travel to
Albany because of the distance involved, or
were plainly apathetictothe issue. Even allow-
ing for these deductions, those who have
grasped the problem at hand and realize that
the cuts are necessary clearly account for a ma-
jority of SUNY students.

What this m torealize, however,
is that itis the squeaky wheel that gets the oil.
This majority must take it upon themselves to
expose the fallacies inherent in their op-
ponents’ arguments; they must fight ideas with
better ideas; and above all, they must not
evade their obligation as the legitimate
spokesmen for American college students.

For the purpose of this leter’ | I'm going
to assume that responsibility and appealtothe
intellect of those who took part in the
demonstration on Tuesday.

Do you know what you were rallying at the
Capitol for? The resolution passed by the Un-
iversity Senate (whose members allegedly
represent the majority but who, in fact, spew
out the proposals of an active minority) stated
that a demonstration would be held “to sup-
port greater funding for the State University
of New York." Yes, greater funding! How is
this increased funding to be financed? Your
{guess is as good as mine, It’s easy to submit a
proposal; to provide a workable solution re-
quires a thinking process which is beyond their
capacity.

New York Cityis on the verge of bankrupt-
cy; the state can't bail the city out; and the
federal government is deep in the red asa con-

The “squeaky wheels” are in an uproar
because their tuition is going 10 increase to

human costs

To the Editor:

Mr. Tom Sherbenko, Chairman of the
SUNYA US China Friendship Association,
hhas asked (March 16th issue) another writer in
the ASP “just who these ‘millions’ are that
Chou En-lai supposedly killed?" Ignoring the
question of Chou's personal responsibility, 1
offer the following quotations in reply:

1. W.W. Rostow, The Prospects for Com-
munist China (1954), p.75.*The total number
of persons killed by the Communist regime
hhus not been officially stated . . . Moraes set
total executions by mid-1952 at nearly 2
million. A priest, basing his figures on the
statements of Communist officials, estimated
that all-China executions numbered about 7
million.”

2 Doak Barnett, Communist China and
Asia (1960), p. 21, “Several millions of
landlords and their families were killed in the
process (of agrarian reform),

3. John K. Fairbank, The United States &

China (1958 ed,), p. 288, “Together with the
results of ‘people's courts’ in the land reform,
‘executions in 1951-52 evidently ran into the
hundreds of thousands; some say millions.”

4, Franz Michael & George Taylor, The Far
East in the Modern World (1964 ed.) p. 439,
“The number of people executed in these two
bloody drives (land reform and counter-
revolutionary suppression) soon mounted
into the millions.”

5. Stanley Karnow, Mao and China(1972),
p. $8, “By liquidating a million or more
landlords in the early 1950's, the Communists
destroyed the rural gentry.”

‘One may argue that China as a whole has
benefited both economically and in world
power by the ruthless policies of the Com-
munists, but (o deny the human costs like Mr.
Sherbenko does shows that he hasn’t learned
much about the scholarly approach to facts at
this university.

A Little Older...

Once again, it's the age of protest, Thousands of angry, frustrated students descend
upon the Capitol one winter's day, several crashing through the doors, in protest of
cuts in the budget.

Six orseven years ago, the response Would have been clouds of tear gas and the use of
military strategy, but police and establishment alike are now wiser, Governor Carey.
quictly slips out a side entrance, while the two students arrested in chaos receive legal
and moral assistance from Senate Majority leader Warren Anderson,

But the question remains: have students as well become wiser?

The recent wave of similar, but generally unrelated, protests at various SUNY
campuses makes this question all the more pertinent, since the sincere efforts of many
people with good intentions are, in this case. potentially being wasted,

Perhaps a case-by-case analysis will do the best job of explaining: Students, faculty,
and other university employees at Binghamton took over an entire floor of the
administration building. They demanded major concessions from the administration,
Their President, after several rounds of negotiations.agreed to most of the demands.
Yet, the occupation of the administration building continued, Finally, the
administration had to threaten to obtain a court injunction in order to oust the
unappeased demonstrators, who left complaining of the administration's “empty
compromises."

. .. But Not Much Wiser

Another protest -this time at Fredonia -was put toa stop on Monday. Protestors
barricaded themselves off in the President's office and refused to leave until demands
were mel, Perhaps taking a lesson from the Binghamton incident which had ended two
days carlier, the administration did not even attempt to appease students, they simply
got an injunction

Although students and faculty at Purchase still remain in contro) of the
administration building there, it is feared, and rightly so, that the pattern may
continue: an injunction is all it would take to foil their efforts.

11 remains unclear whether the “symbolic protest” of students at Buffalo State
College will havean effect, and protests at Old Westbury and New Paltz seem more like

Angry ‘Medea’

by Naomi Friedlander

Theatre-in-the-round presents
one of the most captivating aspects
of drama: it permits the audience to
interact with the players and to
assume an active position in the
course of the action. Phenomenal
this may sound, the players andt
audience were fused together in
SUNYA‘s production of Euripedes*
Medea last Friday night,

Under the direction of Edward:
Mendus, Associate Professor of
theatre, nine actors performed this
Greek tragedy in the PAC Arena
Theatre, The proximity of the
players to their surrounding viewers
gave the praduction its vitality and
the energy needed to convey the
demonic evil Medea represents.

Set designer, Joseph Zubrovich,
created a simple, rustic environment
to symbolize the legend of Medea.
‘The heavily draped props, the shells,
and the sand were not realistic ex-
ponents of ancient Greece but
emblems of any coastal setting The
‘audience was viewing a classic as
feasibly current as any modern
horror story.

Pamela Burri, Costume Designer,
added to this effect with her long,
weighty robes, reminiscent of Greek
garments, However, her effects were
poorly highlighted by the lighting
which only rarely complemented the
set,
Deborah Lee Smith brilliantly
portrayed Medea, with the venom
and bitchiness essential to the
character of this vengeful woman,
Her facial contortions and gestures
‘accented her magnetic voice and
produced a captivating, awesome
figure. Ms, Smith, without excep-
tion, carried the play. However, she
was well supported by Pearl
Stratyner, the Nurse, who admirably
displayed a quiet energy and deter-
mination, The two women, Debora

Beechert and Deborah Dodge,
demonstrated their talents in ¢
solo performances though
choruses had a choppy, sing-songy
effect,

‘Onthe whole, the male performers
in Medea were invariably disappoin-
ting. Curt Richardson, as Jason, was
‘a passive, unemotional figure rather
than the dynamic hero depicted in
Greek legends, while Robert
Marcello's Creon was little more
than a stick figure, mouthing lines
and awkwardly gesturing, Even the
Attendant, a minor role played by
JE. Parker, was a bland, shallow
character, talking in such an obvious
monotone that it was blatantly ap-
parent that Parker was bored with
his part, Only Larry Harris, as
Acgeus, ‘displayed the dynamism
and strength typifying the Greek
hero,

Georgia Rucker’s original flute
pieces echoed through the Arena
Theatre, emphasizing the eerie, pier-
cing tone of Medea, The music
chilled each viewer as he sym-
pathized with Medea's woe and
became the character's reluctant,
awed accomplice,

‘The Albany Symphony Orchestra and Conductor Julius Hegy!.

Albany Symphony:
Through the Back Door

by Stephen Elsenman

‘An evening spent with the Albany
Symphony Orchestra always proves
to be challenging. After struggling
through the long line at the box o!
fice to pick up my reserved tickets, 1
was told that they had been given
away to some other Eisenman from
the ASP. Some haggling finally con-
vinced them that I was the real Mc-
Coy and I took two other seats, anx-
ious for the music to begin.

Here at Albany’s Palace Theatre
we heard more than just music: 1
heard ushers snickering, men with
perfect lungs coughing like con-
sumptives, and ladies with big hats
discussing the conductor's suit. But,
I told myself, this is not New York
City, be patient,

‘The performance of the music in
the first half of the concert demand-
ed patience. Schoenberg's Five
Pieces for Orchestra, an outstanding
early work by the master of the 12
tone scale, was poorly conceived by
conductor Julius Hegyi. Where the
work demanded crisp stops and
starts, the musicians were sluggish.
Where tempos needed to be quickly

stepped up or down, Hegyi guided
his orchestra through the back door.
For this piece to be effective,

be sharp, emboldened by rapid shifts
in tempo and dynamics.

The second work, Beethoven's
Fourth Symphony, was the scene of
another struggle. The first move-
ment was very sloppy. A few of the
strings struck bad notes, damaging
the sound of the entire string section,
The pacing was too deliberate and
the horns sounded as if they were
drowning, The third movement,
marked by some brilliant solo
clarinet writing, failed to achieve any
degree of lyricism. The strings once
again slid into passages that
demanded assertiveness.

‘The second half of the concert was
much better than the first. It began
with a performance of Cesar Frank's
Symphonic Variations for Piano
and Orchestra, with soloist
‘Theodore Lettvin.Mr. Lettvin, a
large man with massive arms and
hands, displayed a masterly control
of the keyboard. He executed the
most difficult of passages with ease
and sensitivity, ranging over the

piano as if it were a mere toy. The
orchestra, perhaps inspired by this
fine musicianship, performed well.

‘The final work of the evening was
Franz Liszt's “Dance of Death” for
piano and orchestra, This work,
composed of one simple theme from
which a myriad of variations are
spun, is great fun, It is loud and
crashing at times, soft and ethereal at
others. It is largely an exercise in
‘master pianist technique, with runs
up and down the keyboard, trill,
and other pianistic pyrotechnics,
Lettvin performed them all with
relish. He expressed the music's
romantic demonic nature, bringing
to mind late medieval paintings of
the Last Judgment, Again the
orchestra seemed more at ease in the
role of accompanist.

‘The next and last concert of the
season promises to be a good one,
with works by Bizet and
Moussorgsky. I shall attend, un-
daunted by rude ushers or tuberculin
listeners. Who knows, perhaps the
Albany Symphony Orchestra will be
great, perhaps the lines will be
shorter.

Major Leagues Vie For Toronto

NEW YORK (AP) Toronto, which
recently lost out on a franchise
switch, now finds it is being wooed
by both leagues.

1'm overjoyed,” said Paul God-
frey, chairman of the Metropolitan
Toronto Council, “One fair maiden
and two suitors—that has to say
something about the kind of city
Toronto is."

It is an ironic twist for the Cana-
dian city which lost the National
League Giants when San Francisco
found financial interests to buy the
club and keep it there.

Saturday, both the American
League and National League ex-
pressed interest in Toronto. The
American League took the intiative
by voting I! to I to expand to
Toronto in 1977. Then the National
League responded — by saying it
would actively consider expansionin

Editorial
Fields Plan

The following was read by Andy Bauman at a press conference on]
Monday March 22 in the Assembly Hall

Last Monday, President Fields announced his plans for instituting
the mandated cutbacks in the SUNY Albany operating budget

For the most part, the work and decisions of the Task Force seen
to be reasonable, however, some questions remain conspicuoush
unanswered,

Why did President Fields decline to alter any Task Force decisions
even though both of the groups he appointed to review cited 14 areaq
of concern? Is it rational to expect all 14 areas in question to
unfounded in fact? And what are those facts that the Task F 4
used? All of the Task Force worksheets were destroyed, and thu:
unavailable to both review channels. ‘This can only lead to
speculation on hidden inconsistencies,

Both review channels had their hadns tied by their limited charge|
and resources. President Fields’ charge 10 these councils only for
review based on new information or procedural inconsistencies,
ignoring whether or not the decisions were logical, And even with th
limited charge, President Fields rejected all 14 concerns that botl
councils agreed upon, One must wonder why he asked for theis inpu
in the first place, Was it to help him make more rational decisions, o
to be merely used ay an easy means to legitimize his decisions?

In addition, there are questions about the decisions themselves. As
background, it must be remembered that all the information for the
Task Foree’s work, was provided by: Fields direet assistants oF hig
institutional research office.

Why were only two positions cut from the area of General]
Administration while all other areas were cut by over 96 positions?]
Even by the Task Force's own admission, their work in the non-
instructional areas Was hastily done dueto time constraints. Thus, the
Administration's own recommendations for administrative cuts were:
generally lollowed by the Lask Force, In these times of educational
cutbacks, shouldn't the greater emphasis be placed on cuts in]
administrative bureaucracy rather than in our teaching faculty?

Finally, there is the cut of the nursing program, Our nurses are in
such demand that cach itnd every graduate has a job waiting, The
decision was based on a strict adherence to traditional academic
emteria while completely ignoring the pressing social need for our
ugh quality Nursing program. his is no time for the President of a
State University to cawer inan ivory tower of academia. New York
State hay a responsibility to facilitate the training of health care
personnel, sand the best place i cin be dane is in our own universities
