THE CURSE OF THE CAMPUS: NO. 2
As was pointed o u t last week, one would think t h a t with all
the progress we huve m a d e in t h e education game, something
might have been done b y now a b o u t roommates. B u t no. T h e
r o o m m a t e picture has n o t brightened one bit since E t h a n
Goodpimple founded t h e first American college.
( C o n t r a r y to popular belief, H a r v a r d was not the first. Mr.
Goodpimple started his institution some 75 years earlier. And
quite an institution it was, let me tell y o u ! M r . Goodpimple
built schools of liberal a r t s , fine a r t s , dentistry, and tanning.
He built a lacrosse s t a d i u m t h a t seated 102,000. Everywhere
on c a m p u s was emblazoned the stirring Latin m o t t o
CAVE
MUSSI—"Watch
o u t for m o o s e . " T h e s t u d e n t union contained
a bowling alley, a clock, a n d a lG-chair barber shop.
( I t was this last feature —the b a r b e r shop — t h a t , alas,
brought Mr. Goodpimpie's college to an early end. T h e s t u d e n t
body, being drawn from the nearby countryside, was composed
chiefly of D e c u o t s and Iroquois who, alas, had no need of a
barber shop. T h e y braid their hair instead of cutting it, and as
for shaving, they d o n ' t . T h e barber, T r e m b l a t t Follicle by name,
grew so depressed staring all the time a t 10 e m p t y chairs t h a t
one day his mind finally gave way. Seizing his vibrator, he ran
outside and shook the entire c a m p u s till it crumbled to dust.
This later became known as Pickett's Charge.)
But I digress. We were discussing ways for you and y o u r
r o o m m a t e to stop hating each other. This is admittedly difficult b u t not impossible if you will both bend a bit, give a little.
I remember, for example, my own college days (Berlitz, '08).
M y roommate was, I think you will allow, even less agreeable;
than most. He was a Tibetan named Kingading whose native
customs, while indisputably colorful, were not entirely endearing. M a r k you, I didn't mind so much the gong he struck on
the hour or the string of firecrackers he set off on the half-hour.
I didn't even mind his singeing chicken feathers every dusk and
daybreak. What I did mind was t h a t he singed them in my hat.
T o be fair, he was not totally taken with some of my habits
either- especially my hobby of collecting water. I had no jars
a t the time and just had to stack the water any-old-where.
Well sir, things grew steadily cooler between Kingading and
me, and they might have gotten actually ugly had we not each
happened to receive a package from home one day. Kingading
opened his package, paused, smiled shyly at me, and offered
me a gift.
" T h a n k you," I said. " W h a t is it'.'"
"Yak b u t t e r , " he said. "You put it in your hair. In Tibetan
we call it gm sec kiilxtujf."
"Well now, that's mighty friendly," I said and offered him a
gift from my package. " N o w you must huve one of m i n e . "
" T h a n k you," he said. " W h a t is this called'.'"
" M a r l b o r o Cigarettes," I said and held a match for him.
He puffed. "Wow !" hesaid. " T h i s sure beats chicken leathers !"
"Or anything else you could name,'' I said, lighting my n u n
Marl In >n i.
And as we sat together and enjoyed that line llavorful
Marlboro tobacco, that pure white Marlboro tiller, a glow of
guild fellowship came over us a serene conviction that no
quarrels exist between men that will not yield to the w a r m t h of
honest good will. I am proud to say thai Kingading and I remain friends to this day, and we exchange card.-- each i 'hristmus
a:.d each Fourth HI' July, firecrackers.

Rowboat or Ice Skates?
Have you noticed all the people limping around here
lately? We certainly have and we feel it's time to do
something about the icy conditions on the sidewalks.
We realize that the University can do nothing about
the ice between the dorms and the college buildings,
bad as it is. But, the University can, and we believe
should, correct the conditions around Richardson Hall
and Page Field. To put it bluntly, they're abominable.
The sidewalk in front of Richardson, for instance,
is either slick ice or a wading pool, depending on the
time of day. We have seen this happen — a person can
safely, if not very suavely, manage to get almost all
the way to school and then fall on the approach to the
buildings.
You have a choice — you can swim or you can slide.
The intelligent student, who has been here for a
few years, realizes that this is an annual problem and
plans his schedule accordingly. If he prefers sliding
along, he schedules his classes for 8 or 9 a.m., but if
he's more the Olympic-type swimmer, he'll have
afternoon classes.
He will also keep in mind that he should allow himself at least an hour to navigate the lakes between
annexes - ten minutes is impossible.
We think it is time that somebody took some action
on this problem - either rent out row-boats and ice
skates, or correct the icy conditions. Whose job is
this?
Frosh Unaware of Appeal Board
This past semester we saw many very unfortunate
events with regard to the marks given out by new faculty members.
A frosh was flunked in English 1 because his term
paper was "too short." He wrote well, did good r e search, reported his research accurately and committed few, if any, grammatical horrors.
But the
student was flunked due to failing to throw you-knowwhat long enough.
A frosh was flunked in Speech 1 because he "plagerized." He reported in his outline that all his information was from a certain popular magazine. He
mentioned the name of the magazine and that the information was taken from the magazine. Because he
did not mention or write the issue of the magazine,
this was plagerizing.
In a French course, a frosh was dropped from a " B "
to a " D " with no rational explanation. [ An explanation
was requested.]
A grad student was given a " C " in a course where
all his marks, on exams and papers, were " A ' s " and
" B ' s . " This mark was changed on appeal.
Unfortunately most of the frosh do not know about the
appeal procedures or the appeal board. The result is
often an unfair mark.
We do not condemn our new faculty members. Most
all of them are fully competent, but we feel they are
not given any instruction about the marking traditions
of this university.
We hope that with the great increase in faculty
a program will be initiated with regard to the usual
purposes of subjective marking.
We hope that the orientation programs of the future
will instruct the frosh about the procedures which are
available to them.
We hope that no stigma will lie
attached to a person who gets a mark changed by the
appeal system.

Often their accounts are filled
with obvious and subtle s y m b o l i s m .
Biblical and r e l i g i o u s i m a g e r y a l s o
plays a major role in the book.
The central figure is Robert
F e a h m e l , son of a famous a r c h i tect who built St. Anthony's Abbey.
As a s t u d e n t , Robert and his
friends fail to adhere to the totalitarian doctrines of the thirties.
They refuse the " H o s t of the
Beast."
After he returns from
forced e x i l e , Robert b e c o m e s a
demolition expert for the Nazis.
Unlike his father, the creative
d e s t r o y e r , Robert is the d e s t r o y i n g
creator. All through his a c t i v i t i e s ,
Robert has only one goal in mind.
He w i s h e s to destroy St. Anthony's
Ahbey.
Goti Chonco
He gets h i s c h a n c e a few d a y s
b e f o r e the end of the w a r .
"He
had wanted to e r e c t a m o n u m e n t
of dust and r u b b e r for t h o s e who had
not h i s t o r i c a l m o n u m e n t s and
whom no one had thought to s p a r e . "
Robert is not moved by " s o m e
fourteenth-century
fingernail
d i r t . " He is not interested in the
honor of his ancestors.
He is
concerned with human b e i n g s - Ferdi, Fdith, the m e s s e n g e r boy,
the wa i te r. The se a re the one s who
ate "Host of the Lamb" and paid
for it with their lives.
Like Robert, Schrella will not
forget these people. Like Robert,
he must always remain an alien
in the society around him.
He
s h o w s no mercy and no forgiveness.
"We're not God and can't
any m o r e measure up to His mercy
than to His o m n i s c i e n c e . "

Baker Suggests New Plan
For Fraternity Rushing
During Third Semester
by Chorll* Bokof
The longer we remain on this
c a m p u s the m o r e we question the
c o r r e c t n e s s of the p r e s e n t f r a ternity rushing and pledging t i m e s .
Most intelligent u p p e r c l a s s men
r e a l i z e the tremendous s t r a i n u n dergone by freshmen in their initial
adjustment to the c o l l e g e e n v i r o n ment. F i r s t there i s F r o s h Week:
then Rivalry, which only vaguely
r e a l i z e s its goals but t a k e s a lot
of time; and then the IFC S m o k e r
with open s e a s o n d e c l a r e d on frosh
men. A flurry of c o n c e r t e d effort
i s made by fraternities and about
half o r two-thirds of the f r e s h m e n ;
the flurry continues through the
busy holidays and final e x a m s and
r e a c h e s a c r e s c e n d o a week before
the i s s u a n c e of bids.
Unfortunately many of t h o s e men
scheduled to r e c e i v e bids are not
to be found — somethingabout final
g r a d e s . And there are o t h e r s who
a r e unquestionably g o i n g t o b e s u b m e r g e d by the e v e r - r i s i n g tide of
a c a d e m i c demands (first s e m e s t e r
only required 16 hours of C; with
a 1.0 plus a v e r a g e , s e c o n d s e m e s ter demands 6-16 hours of B), but
s o c i a l demands are still p r e s s i n g
and the freshmen accept a bid
anyway; who knows, this may be
t h e i r last few months in c o l l e g e .
Next c o m e s i x "uneventful"
w e e k s of pledge e d u c a t i o n . The
p l e d g e h a s c e r t a i n s m a l l d u t i e s and
c h o r e s to p e r f o r m , t h e s e g e n e r a l l y
of a r a t h e r d i v e r s i f i e d and p o s s i b l y
time-consuming n a t u r e .
Then
c o m e s " H e l l p W e e k " and finally
initiation.
Now b a c k to o u r s t u d i e s - - BUT
WAIT! We forgot we have f r a t e r n i ty e l e c t i o n s , and we do have to a s s i m i l a t e t h e s e m e n , get t h e m i m m e r s e d in f r a t e r n i t y a c t i v i t y , and
h e l p t h e m to adjust to " r e a l " f r a t e r n i t y life.
When t h i s a s s i m i l a tion is c o m p l e t e d , so a r e J u n e

POTTER TOPS POTTER ? TO SNARE
ANNUAL AMIA CAGE TOURNAMENT
The AMIA basketball Commissioners Tournament came to a
close last Wednesday with Potter
Club and EF!P engaged j n a battle
to the death.
The game was played too late to
make p r e s s time, but the outcome
mattered little as the first and
second league Potter teams were
the only ones to make the finals.
This was a big year for the men
in Black and White as they came
up league champions in all four
AMIA basketball loops. With a 1-2
finish assured in the Tournament,
their domination is further underscored.
A total of twelve teams were
entered in the tournament, with
the top four seedings going to

The hounds of spring arc on winter's truces. Soon buds tin*
crocus, soon trills the giant condor, soon conic the new spring
fashions to adorn our lissome limbs.
And what will the American college student wear this spring?
(lather round, you rascals, and light a Marlboro Cigarette and
enjoy that fine mellow tobacco, that pure white filter, and
possess your souls in sweet content, and listen.
As everyone knows, campus fashions have always been casual.
This spring, however, they have gone beyond being merely
casual: they have become mnhi shift.
The object is to look madly improvised, gaily spur-of-themoment! For example, why don't you girls try wearing a
peasant skirt with a dinner jacket'.' Or matador pants with a
bridal veil? Or Bermuda shorts with bronze breastplates'.' Me
rakish! He impromptu! He devil-take-the-hindinost!
And, men, you be the same. Try an opera cape with sweat
pants. Or a letter-sweater with kilts. Or a strait jacket with
hip boots. He bold! He daring! He a tourist attraction!
Potter I, APA I, the Goobers,
and Waterbury I.
In the first round of play eight
teams engaged in a playoff in order
to advance to the second round and
play the top seeded squads.
In this sudden death opening
round Potter II demolished the
One-Eyes 69-32, the Apathetics
topped the Club 49-39, KB II annihilated an outmanned Newman
Club five 98-38, and the Infinites
blasted the Apaches 60-40.
In the second round of play
Potter II had a big surprise for
fourth seeded Waterbury I as Potter rolled over their opponents
62-28.
In other second round games,
APA had a difficult time in edging the Apathetics 46-42, the Goob e r s had to rally to beat KB II
51-47, and Potter I crushed the
Infinites 70-52.
The final elimination round followed the Potter script exactly,
as Potter II faked out second
seeded APA 69-45, and Potter I
beat the Goobers 51-43.

points.
The Tournament was won by highly r e g a r d e d C o r t land with 87 points, while Oswego finished second
with 85, and Rrockport and Oneonta tied for third

sano and Don Deluca who were
playing in their last game at home
for the Peds, were instrumental
in leading the Sauersmen to a 3225 lead at intermission. Both men
have played good ball throughout
the season and should be congratulated.
The halftime lead managed to
hold up throughout the second half
as Albany maintained a 10 point
lead throughout much of the r e marnder of the game. Dick Crossett and Oppedisano paced the
team in the second half to assure
the squad of better than a .500
season.
Oppedisano was high s c o r e r with
18 points while the injured C r o s sett again played well and countered 16 points.
Others in double
figures for Albany were Ray Weeks
(12), Deluca (10), and Danny Zeh
(10). Friel led the Lakers with 18
while Low added 14.
Thursday night's game was a
h o r r o r show for the tearr a s they
took it on the chin from the Bombe r s of Ithaca College. The team
could do nothing right against the
taller opponents and threw the ball
away numerous times.
The usually adequate defense fell
apart and allowed the most points
that any team has scored against
them this year.
The team found itself trailinghy
a 45-27 margin at halftime which
eventually proved to be insurmountable. Bill Schutz, Ron Fazio,
and George Strickland were the
thorns in the side of Albany as they
scored many times and accounted
for a grand total of 60 points for
the winners.
Albany began tn catch up with
about 6 minutes left but the first
team for Ithaca reentered and the
game was put out of reach.
Oppedisano with 18 and Crossett
with 14 were the big guns in the
attack for the Purple and Gold.

Governor Rockefeller's 'Pay-As-You-Go' System
To Collapse With Its 'Day of Reckoning'
months.
fcf Gary Luciok
The experience that makes the deepest difference in
any person is the experience of going to college. It is
here that the man, the woman, is created; for it is
here that thinking begins, and in our society there is
no more noticeable difference that the difference between the thoughtful and the unthoughtful person.
Perhaps nothing does more to intensify this experience than the reading of books. Why is this so? The
answer lies in the potential that the reading of books
offers for developing the processes of thought, in the
college student who has taken the most advantage of
this potential in his years at college.
Books stretch the mind—the most elastic thing a
human being possesses. The student who forms the
habit of letting this experience happen to him should
never lose it, though he will probably exercise it less
in later years.
In college he is expected to read
books; to take in the whole of a long argument or exposition or narrative; to keep the parts of it before
him as he reads, and to see them in their natural
relation; to live with an author for hours or days or
weeks, to venture through new worlds as if he had a
right to be there.
The world of a college is many worlds, all of
which will be new to the freshman, varied and ever
changing to the upperclassman. His passport through
these worlds is his desire and his ability to read. He
will come back from his intellectual journeys in college a richer person than the one who went.
He will have attended classes and listened to lectures, and participated in discussions. These are e s sential to the college experience; yet the reading of
books is just as important. And its peculiar feature
is that it is done alone, at night or at strange hours,
when the student is his own master, bent upon cultivating the mind that is uniquely his.
This mind of his is, of course, engaged in a rivalry
with other minds; for a college has many good minds;
students are competitors as well as peers. But no
form of competition is more genial; it is a race for
intellectual satisfaction and happiness, not m e r e
triumph.
The habit of reading books is the clearest indication
of an educated person, whether in or out of college.
But it starts in college, for any student who is genuinely
there. The good reader not only uses his mind in
reading, he develops it. Nothing is more rewarding
than the first of these; nothingis nobler than the second.

8.00 Only
Bonds Available
T think that an important sidelight to the topic under d i s c u s sion should here lie brought out.
In 1956 the legislature passed
and the people approved a $500
million bond issue which was to
help finance, among other things,
highway construction and expansion of the State University.
To date, some S410 million worth
of these bonds remain unsold. To
sell these bonds would lie an outright violation of the " p a y - a s - y o u g o " theory on which the Governor
has staked his political c a r e e r .
(And as we know, our Governor
tends to shy away from such words
as " o u t r i g h t . " )
Controlled Borrowing
Actually, it has been stated by
many, including Mr. Levitt, that
there is nothing wrong with a
limited amount of borrowing if
done prudently. It is worth noting
that this S410 million in unsold
bonds would have far exceeded the
various " f e e " increases the Gove r n o r had proposed.
I believe it was Louis XV who
said, "After me, the deluge! " It
would seem to me that these words
could apply equally as well to Mr.
Rockefeller.
He expects to be comfortably
situated in the White House when
the fiscal structure of this state
comes crumbling to the ground.
The question we must ask ourselves in 1964 is whether we want
to entrust our fate and the fate of
our country to a man who has
repeatedly v i o l a t e d the public
trust; can Mr. Rockefeller ever
be trusted again'.'

Add to this fact that the tax
collection advances and that the
repayment he expects from c e r tain public authorities can only be
effective s o u r c e s of revenue for
one or two y e a r s .
After that one or two y e a r s ,
they will not be available, yet the
expenditures which they have supported will continue.
Consequently, funds in support
of these expenditures will have to
be raised by other means; since
our Governor has just about e x hausted his bag of t r i c k s , he will
have to resort to a tax increase
if he is to maintain the myth of
"pay-as-you-go."

CORTLAND VICTORY ?
What has happened to the morals of our
college students? Have (hey degenerated
to the point of perversion? Can we be
proud that we overwhelmingly defeated
Buffalo State in a "foulness contest?"
Had anyone been at this year's Cortland
Tournament they might have wondered!
Looking past the fact that we finished in a
well deserved second place, we wonder
whether such a victory was worth the filth
that accompanied it.
We admit that there1 was a pretty poor
turn out and those individuals who did go
did serve as some form of representation
from State. Hut, was this type of representation worth it' ; It might have been
better to send the Hawley pidgeons, at
least they would have acted less like animals.
We wish not to cast aspersion upon
all those who traversed the 150 miles to
Cortland, but rather the individuals (whose
names, they may thank us, will not be
mentioned) who took part in the rotten
activities. For these men (?) a tournament
weekend cannot just consist of basketball
games, cheering, a few drinks, and a little
camaraderie and conviviality.
No, for
these people "Mooning," "C.C.O.'s," and
"Hymns," are more in the vogue.

K±J
The really unfortunate aspect of the
whole rotten situation is that although
these perverted individuals represent only
a minority of our University, it was from
them that any outsider attending the Cortland Tournament would gain an opinion of
Albany State —and this opinion could not
help but lie poor.
Some share of the blame must be directed at the students who allowed these
people to represent them. Had only a fair
percentage of our student body shown up,
these few would have been outnumbered
and maybe even shamed or at least led
toward a more decent standard of behavior.
However, we cannot help but show our
disgust for those who did " r e p r e s e n t " us.
How can these people possibly justify
their actions?
How can they have so
little self-respect, so little self-esteem,
to degrade their school and more importantly, themselves, by such actions?
The reputation we have gained, the
mark we made on all the people who
were at Cortland will not fade away soon.
It will remain in their minds to be brought
forward whenever they encounter the name
of Albany State. The damage has been
done; little can change it now.
