FRIDAY. APRIL 22, 19S5 PAOB1 STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FRIDAY. APRIL 22, 1989 From The Editor's Desk: Blackboard Jungle . . . During the holidays we stopped in to see "Blackboard Jungle," a film concerning the teaching profession and a part of our school system. The movie deals with an idealistic teacher trying to cope with a bunch of rough hoodlums in a trade school, and presents to the public a very poor view of our system and profession. This picture is one of the many examples of the public's idea of proceedings in today's classroom: a poor teacher trying to handle a job many times too large for him. The sad part about it is that this is very true of many of our present day teachers. While in college they are taught idealistic methods in an idealistic schoolroom situation and never warned about what will happen when they face the wide, wide world. Granted, not all of them will teach in such an unusual school as the one portrayed in the film, but what about those who will teach there? They are totally unprepared and are unable to handle these situations when they arise. This lack of adequate preparation is just one of the many reasons for the number of poor, ill-qualified teachers found in our schools today. The teaching profession holds forth a not-too inviting future to the American youth. The small salary, lack of respect, no chance for advancement, are all factors which turn potentially-excellent teachers away from teacher-training institutions and steer them into other professions. But this doesn't mean that the teachers' colleges are empty! Because of the News Views: great need for teachers, the training institutions have lowered their requirements in order to admit more people. The teachers' colleges are turning out teachers, yes, but their graduates are not what they should be. Looking around us we can see some of the reasons for this downfall. A teacher is a leader, a person who is able to guide his students, a person with an interest in others and in their activities, for part of his job will be to guide students in extra-curricular activities. The experience necessary for this job should come from participation in extracurricular college activities and leadership of the activities. Teachers' colleges, more than any other type of college, should be swarming with leaders, people with ideas, who are not afraid to express them. There should be great interest in the activities with which these future teachers will soon have to deal. Few people have turned up as leaders and a lesser number have even attempted leadership.

Catherine Newbold, Assistant Professor In Social Studies, accompanied the group as faculty advisor. The Collegiate Council for the United Nations annually organizes a Model U. N. General Assembly of the North eastern colleges. Each college is assigned a member country to represent. This year State was given Ethiopia. The proceedings of the meetings are kept as close as possible to those in the actual United Nations. The conference split into four groups discussing charter revision, economic development of under-developed countries, trust territories, forced labor, and regional defense treaties. Pinal resolutions were made on all the problems and discussion on the committee resolutions was held before final voting on Sunday. There were many humorous highlights of the conference. For instance the Russian delegation delayed proceedings to complain because of the absence of their flag on the platform.

Potter Club Hoopsters Capture Championship For Two Straight By ARNIE NEWMAN Potter Club, flooring a powerful, well balanced squad, swept to the Intramural Basketball Championship of the school for the second straight year by soundly beating its second string EEP team, 65 to 47. The high scorers for Potter in this finale were Dave Stark and Tito Guglielmone with 17 apiece. EEP's chief point producer was Tom O'Loughlin with 14. Prior to this contest Potter had trounced the Ponies, 70-45, to eliminate them from the playoffs. In this game Stark hit for 19 to pace the winners. Potter Best Potter had, without a doubt, the outstanding Intramural basketball club this year. They won the championship rather handily after completing the regular season undefeated. In fact they were rarely pressed very hard in any of their games. It seems to us that the best team won. The season on the whole was a rather unsuccessful one. The three leagues containing 20 teams were, of necessity, somewhat unwieldly. After the first round of play, the proposed second round degenerated into a playoff series due to lack of time. A large percentage of games was cancelled as everything from concerts to baseball clinics disrupted the planned schedule. Lack of Refs There was a rather serious problem with referees. There weren't any! (At least at many of the games, i Oftentimes a pickup referee officiated in the absence of the official who was supposed to be provided by one of the teams. The policy of penalizing squads who didn't supply referees wasn't enforced. Perhaps this last problem will be solved in future years if AMIA succeeds in forming a board of paid student referees. League Managers Jim Estramonte and Bernie Baker were faced with a number of knotty problems, and did as good a job as possible.

By BOB ASHFIELD With the April 29 baseball opener for Albany State just a week away, Coach Hathaway and Coach Garcia are fast whipping the candidates into playing form. The veterans who are striving to hold down their berths in lieu of the upstart freshmen are: catchers, Bob Dreher and Sig Smith; infielders, Bob Sage and Al Lederman; outfielder, Wayne Overton; find pitchers, John Zidik, Joe McDowell, and Tom Shumanski. Harvey Clearwater, a returning veteran, who played three seasons for State prior to 1950, is out to regain his turn on the mound. Clearwater played both football and baseball while in the line of duty for Uncle Sam. Men who look like great prospects for the coming season include: Bob Granados, a veteran and transfer from LIU. Granados. who really knows how to handle the mitt behind the plate, looks equally as good at third where he may get the nod when the season opens. Sandy Bernstein, a portside swinger, has been showing off a lot of power and looks like a good bet for an outfield post. Gerry McDonald, who starred on the court, is giving baseball a first try at State and may move into the shortstop position. Luke Sanders has looked good around second base with his glove work and could become a permanent fixture. Howard Caldwell, a pitcher, has been impressive in the early workouts and possesses a good fast ball and curve. Caldwell is rated as a pretty good infielder, too. Team Appoints Diamond Captains John Zidik and Bob Sage, both three-year veterans of State baseball, were named co-captains for this year's diamond campaign. Sage, starting his fourth year at shortstop, moved into the position in his freshman year. Bob appeared at bat more than any other State player last season, and was struck out only once. Falconer, in the western part of the State, is his home town. Zidik Best Hurler John Zidik, who also broke into the line-up in his freshman year, was State's top pitcher last year. Possessing a good last ball and curve, John led the pitchers in strikeouts, running up a string of even straight in one appearance last season. The Yonkers' product is what is termed "a good hitting pitcher." Last season he also saw action in left field when not taking his turn on the mound.
