Strike (1924), Potemkin (1925), Ten
Days that Shook the World (October
1927) and Old and New(The General
L i n e , 1929) — have become c l a s s i c s
mainly through his c r e a t i v e use of
editing'.
Alexander Nevsky was filmed b e tween these two p e r i o d s , and includes e l e m e n t s of both. T h e r e is
no heavy e m p h a s i s on either montage
or composition, and the film is
p e r h a p s m o r e even, and t h e r e f o r e

Here editing does in i dominate
as much as before, ajid the d i r e c t o r
c o n c e n t r a t e s on the visual c o m p o s i tion of every s c e n e . The result is
photography that can stand by itself
as a r t .
In addition, these two films p r e sent tlie c h a r a c t e r of only one man —
T s a r Ivan. This individual development is very much tlie opposite of
a "mass hero."

The c h a r a c t e r ol'Nevsky, although
dominant whenever he a p p e a r s , does
not have the depth given to Ivan.
Actually, much of the film e l i m i n a t e s
him, concentrating instead on the
p e a s a n t s and knights he l e a d s .
The direction is by E i s e n s t e i n
and D.I. Vassiliev, from a s c r i p t
by Eisenstein and P e t e r A. Pavlenko.
Edouard T i s s e was Ihe photographe r , and original music was composed
for the picture by Sergei Prokofiev.
Great Film Genius
Eisenstein died on F e b r u a r y 10,

The p r o b l e m s of living in a b o u r g e o i s e , c a p i t a l i s t i c society and of

B r e c h t ' s s t a t u r e to put a g l o s s over
this theme and make it p a l a t a b l e .
The Good Woman of Setzuan is
Shen T e , a p r o s t i t u t e who t r i e s to
be good to those l e s s fortunate than
she. When three gods descend to

With tlie mum", she buys a t o bacco shop, and her leeching friends
and r e l a t i v e s move in. To keep the
shop, Shen Te is forced to m a s querade as Mr. Shui Ta, her m y t h ical cousin.
Thus unfolds the dichotomy ul a

The m a r r i a g e falls through, tlie

An infraction of Senate's legislation, concerning buses chartered for the upcoming vacation, was brought to the attention of Senate by Senator Miles. According
to a law passed in Senate last year, Senate has the sole right to charter buses
in the name of the State University of New York at Albany. Several groups on
campus, claiming to be unaware of this legislation, went ahead and posted sign up
sheets for students interested in traveling on a chartered bus.
They did this without Senate's consent. Three of these groups refused to submit
to Senate's ruling upon the request of Services committee. The committee made
several offers to these groups, one of which was to reimburse those involved
for expenses already incurred. These groups were
given until Sunday to come
to a decision.
Greeks Contend With Administration
Over Early Freshmen Rush Period
The rush period In 19G0 has a r i s e n
as a major bone of contention b e tween the G r e e k s and Ihe a d m i n i s t r a t i o n on this c a m p u s .
The dispute a r o s e last month in
the c u r r e n t s e r i e s ol Greek Works h o p s , when the a d m i n i s t r a t i o n
called for a late rush period in
April. The G r e e k s consider an e a r l y
r u s h period in February to be m o r e
advantagioiis from an a c a d e m i c
standpoint.
Dr. David Hartley, Dean of Stud e n t s , has stated that he believed
it to be understood by both ihe
a d m i n i s t r a t i o n and the G r e e k s that
the rush period would take place
in April. He has set the final dale
for agreement of February 7, 19G4.
Originally Dean Hartley had d e mantled a settlement on the date
before the November 1 convocation
lor freshmen. When the G r e e k s
replied that Ihey were unable lo
submit a date that quickly , Hartley
set Ihe 1' ebruai y 7 date.
Two Sides
The administration advocates an
April rush period as a way lo
p r e s e t \ e dormitory unity.
Since most dorm functions occur
e a r l i e t in the y e a r , they believe
lhal a late i lis.li period will keep
student ellort within the d o r m s for
a loiigei pei lod ol time.
The G r e e k s slippoi I an early i tish
pel lml because Ihe demands ol i ushing can be bellei handled helore
the a c a d e m i c p r e s s u r e becomes too
g r e a t . They have also e x p r e s s e d
concern that pledges will not be
properly a s s i m i l a t e d into (he o r ganization if they a r e initiated late
in the year.
Unexplained Refusal
The G r e e k s believe that a comp r o m i s e between the F e b r u a r y and
April dates would be inadvisable,
since it would probably
conflict
with vacations.
When they asked lo be allowed
to meet with ihe University c o m mittee on G r e e k s to explain their
position, ihey were refused with
no explanation given.
In a continuation ol their idea,
the thirteen Greek o r g a n i z a t i o n s
submitted a resolution toDean H a r t ley setting forth then r e a s o n s , lie
replied in a letter recognizing the
d i l l e r e n c e in yiewpoiut and s u g g e s t ing a further Workshop lo be held in

By the time we get around to holding
Activities Day, those who are really
interested in a particular group have
already joined, and those who have no
particular p r e f e r e n c e s are already in
a nice comfortable groove.
The solution i s obviously to get these
people acquainted with the groups at
a much earlier date than is currently
the case.
P e r h a p s a program in conjunction with
F r o * Weekend is the solution.
On May 22, 1963 Senate passed
the following law: "Senate shall a s sume the responsibility of c h a r t e r ing buses for scheduled vacation
periods,"
T h i s law was supported by the

No Compromise in Workshops
When the Greek Workshops began last
September, there was a general feeling
of optimism and hope among the Greeks
that the University's new policies towards
fraternities and s o r o r i t i e s could be made
to work.
Now this optimism is gone. In its
place has appeared the belief that no
matter what the Greeks propose, the
administration is going to get its own
way anyhow, so why bother trying?
The Greeks were given a pretty stiff
list of policies to work within last September. The new rushing and pledging
r e q u i r e m e n t s , in particular, marked a
great departure from previous methods.
The purpose of the Workshops was
supposedly to enable the Greeks to make
the best of the situation; to find the best
way to make the new policies work not
only for themselves but for the University as a whole.
Unfortunately, the administration s e e m s
to think that this p r i m r o s e path is a
one-way street. Compromise is fine, it
s e e m s , as long as it's the Greeks who
do all the compromising.
The administration s e e m s determined
to impose its will on the Greeks. Time
and again the efforts of long weeks' work
have been dismissed as being completely
unacceptable.
There is no effort to see the Greek
'point of view. The administration sees
only its own goals (whatever they are)
and drives towards them, the torpedoes
be damned.
The narrowness of this view is rather
bewildering. The only thing it s e r v e s to
do is antagonize a Greek community that
in September genuinely wished to cooperate with the administration.
We suggest the administration r e - e v a l uate its attitudes towards the Greeks. A
bad mistake is being made; it needs
correcting.

It's my opinion that they're controlling us more and more, but
it's like that old cliche about the weather-"Everybody talks
about it but nobody does anything about it."
Reasons, Not Excuses
At a Sayles dorm meeting last week, the question
uf leaving the lounges open all night was raised. To it
the a n s w e r was given that the lounges close at 11 p.m.
because " a l l the other dorms do it that way."
We feel that this excuse is indicative of an alltoo-common attitude of those in authority toward the
student body.
A parent does not let "everybody e l s e " decide how
his child will be brought up, yet when students question
a regulation, they often find that what "everybody
e l s e " does has determined what they, too, will have
to do.
This kind of answer can only foster m i s t r u s t and
contempt. P r e s i d e n t Collins realized this and by explaining his actions in the P o t t e r case has helped
to c l e a r up a suspicion of administrative kangaroo
court tactics which had existed previously.
Other p e r s o n s in authority, however, do not think
it n e c e s s a r y to give students sound, logical reasons
for regulations.
If sound, logical reasons exist, the students have
a right to know them. If there is no basis other than
custom, then the rule should be evaluated and adapted
to the needs of the particular situaton.
As maturing individuals, we feel ourselves capable
of respecting reasonable regulations, but as a reason,
"everybody else does i t " will not suffice.

The Activities Days program was an
unqualified, if somewhat spectacular, flop
last week.
Despite a fine effort by the event's
committee, and the introduction of several
new means to ballyhoo the program, this
rendition of Activities Day was killed
by the same culprit that killed its predecessors.
Most freshmen and transfers could
not care l e s s about joining an activity

Hey friends, isn't it about time we got off the Potter r a i l ? ! The
Common S t a t e r s do not condone the conduct of the students d i s m i s s e d
from this school — however we see absolutely no need lor the Newspaper
to mention a fraternity - thirteen t i m e s - in an a r t i c l e dealing with
individuals' behavior. Credit where credit is due - and Potter didn't
" d u e " it.

One gets much from unselfish giving — if you haven't tried it — you're

The activities on Activities Day w e r e n ' t any too active. T h e r e a r e
many freshmen who know little or nothing about school organizations
and they made Utile or no effort to find out. We mean, how long can
you sit in your room without being a w a r e of what's going on around
you. A wise choice of a single activity can't hurt, and if y o u ' r e tired
of h e a r i n g the same old n a m e s , you have to do something about it.
Meetings can be fun - try one!
Conventions do wonderful things —like expose Albany State's unique
distinction of the presidential veto. Sit tight kiddies —in time maybe
Oswego or Cortland can help our student g o v e r n m e n t get on an equal
footing.

WEEKLY

In a recent learned journal (Playboy) the distinguished board
chairman (Ralph " H o t Lips" Sigafoos) of one of our most
i m p o r t a n t American industrial corporations (the Arf Mechanical Dog Co.) wrote a trenchant article in which he pinpointed
our single most serious national problem: the lack of culture
among science graduates.
Let me hasten to state t h a t Mr. Sigafoos's article was in no
sense derogatory. He said emphatically t h a t the science graduate, what with his gruelling curriculum in physics, m a t h , and
chemistry, can hardly be expected to find time to study the
arts too. W h a t distresses Mr. Sigafoos—and, indeed, all of u s is the lopsided result of today's science courses: graduates
wlio can build a skyscraper but can't compose a concerto; who
know Newton's Third Law but not Beethoven's Fourth Syin-

The power of the written word has been felt at State since 1892. During these
early times the voice of the student body was somewhat weak, but there evolved
an internal strength which now guides all student publications. From a humble
journalistic beginning - "The Normal College Echo" - in June, 1892, until
the founding of State's newest publication, suppression, in 1962, the purpose
and spirit of each effort to increase campus communication has been almost
identical.
Alfred Dedicke, the first editor of the State College News, aptly expressed
the purpose of these publications. In his first editorial in 1916 he wrote, "In
its columns you will feel the pulse beat of the student body. It will be as a mirror
standing at an angle, into which a person peering will not see his own, but^rather
The first student publication, "the Normal College

Echo," was considered the main unifying force of
the school, "reflectingcollege activities and interests."
From this small beginning grew a yearbook, a newsa humor magazine, and a literary magazine.

phony; who are familiar with Fraunhofer's lines but not with
Shelley's.
Mr. Sigafoos can find no solution to this lamentable imbalance. I, however, believe there is one —and a very simple one.
It is this: if students of science don't have time to come to
the arts, then the arts must come to students of science.
For example, it would be a very easy thing to tench poetry
and music right along with physics. Students, instead of being
called upon merely to recite, would instead be required to
rhyme their answers and set them to familiar tunes like, for
instance, the stirring Calami Bogey March. T h u s recitations
would not only be chock-a-block with important facts but
would, a t the same time, expose the students to the aesthetic
delights of great poetry and music. Here, try it yourself. You
all know The Colonel Bogey March. Come, sing along with me:
Physics
Is what we learn in class.
Einstein
Sniii energy is mass.
Newton
Is high-fidulin'
Awl Pascal's a rascal. So's Boyle.
Do you see how much more broadening, how much more uplifting it is to learn physics this way? Of course you do. What?
You want another chorus? By all means:
Leyden
lie made the Lei/den jar.
Trolley
He made llw Trolley car.
Curie
Rode in a surrey
And Diesel's a weasel. So's Boyle.
Once the s t u d e n t has mastered The Colonel Bogey March,
he can go on to more complicated melodies like Death and Transfiguration, Sixteen Tons, and Boo-lloo.
And when the student, loaded not only with science but
with culture, leaves his classroom and lights his Marlboro
Cigarette, bow much more he will enjoy t h a t filter, t h a t flavor,
t h a t puck or box! Because there will no longer be a little voice
within him repeating that he is culturally a dolt. He will know
- know j o y o u s l y - that he is a complete man, a fulfilled man,
and he will bask and revel in the pleasure of his Marlboro as a
colt rolls in new grass exultant and t r i u m p h a n t a truly
educated human person a credit hi his college, to himself, and
to his tobacconist,!

sanctioned the venture and Dedicke
successfully organized the News.
C h r i s t m a s , 192G, left State with
a lustily roaring cub known as the
State Lion. Ferocious only through
the words it printed, the Lion was
the first and only strictly humor
magazine in the college's history.
Margaret Flanagan a n d Wallace
Strevell were the o r g a n i z e r s with
M i s s Flanagan singing songs which
pointed out the needs for a comic
magazine. This weekly warbling at
the s t u d e n t a s s e m b l i e s received
overwhelming response and the Lion
became a reality.
1912
No yearbook was again attempted
until 1911 when " O u r Book" was
published.
It contained literary
works and a tew p i c t u r e s . Since
1911 the yearbook has been published r e g u l a r l y . Starting in 1912
it was called the Pedagogue, and
the name remained so for 40 y e a r s
until it was changed only last year
to T o r c h .
Only one t u n e in S t a t e ' s history
was the Pedagogue dedicated to s o m e
one outside of the school — in 1919
when the honor was given to T h e o dore Roosevelt.
The 1922 Pedagogue campaigned
for a State College Dormitory. In
s o m e y e a r s photograph) contests
were run by the " P e d " staff, and
in 19-10, tbev began to employ the
extensive use of informal photos.
S t a l e ' s publication system e x perienced lis g r e a t e s t growth in
1916, when on October 4, the Class
ot ' l a , r e p r e s e n t e d by a " C o t n miltee lo Publish a Weekly College
N e w s p a p e r " , breathed life into six
pages ol inanimate paper and type,
giving birth lo the Slate College
News.
" T h e Student Dream"
The Newspaper was firsl p r o posed in Mav 1910 when Alfred
Dedicke
a Sophomore, presented
a Moving Up Day skit, ' ' T h e Student D r e a m . " The play depicted
the advantages ol having a college
They Weren't Lion
For the first two y e a r s , it was
distributed by individual s a l e s , being
published twice each of the y e a r s .
It turned out to be a complete
financial, l i t e r a r y , and a r t i s t i c s u c c e s s . In 1928 it became financed
along with the other student publications under the student tax.
Its m o t t o was, " R u g i t e cum
L e o n e " (roar with the lion) and
in 1931 it was forced to do some
roaring. George Kice, then editor
of the Stale College News tried
to eliminate the Lion's a p p r o p r i a tion, but popular support squelched
Ins attempt.
Until l'.i.h) there were two college magazines on c a m p u s , the Echo
and the Lion, but during this year
thev combined lo form the S t a t e s man. In 1941) it became known as
the Primei ami has kept this name

In 1902 Stale's most " r a d i c a l "
publnalioii was brought to life, by
a small group of e n t e r p r i s i n g stud e n t s , under the name of s u p p r e s sion. It has served as a weekly
nutlet lor literary work and student
opinion. It has been the only self
supporting publication on campus
and. as its name indicates, is dedicated lo the cause ol Iree uiisuppressed student expression.

Democrats Register Significant Gains
In New York's Off-Year Elections
by Joseph W, Galu
Last week New York had what are
called off-year elections. Mayors,
county boards of supervisors, and
local posts such as highway superintendents, town clerks, e t c . , are
elected.
Republicans did somewhat well in
electing one more mayor than they
had before the elections. This gain
was more than off set by l o s s e s in
other fields.
Before the elections, Republicans
held majorities in 50 of the 57
boards of supervisors. These boards
are composed of town supervisors
and city ward supervisors.
Small Loss for GOP
The Republicans will control no
more than 47 boards. While this
is still an overwhelming majority,
it reveals progress by the Democrats.
T h e boards under Democratic
control will increase from four to
seven in January. Three boards will
be evenly divided.
The increase of three boards
involves t a k i n g control of five
boards, since Rockland and Putnam
were recaptured by the GOP. Republican control of these boards is
expected to be temporary since
the Republicans won with the help
of a split within the Democrats.
Major gains were scored by the
Democrats in t a k i n g control of
boards of supervisors in a large
urban center, Niagara County, and
in Dutchess county.
Narrow Control Maintained
The Republicans maintained control of Monroe, Erie, Onondaga,
Orange, and Nassau; but the margins
of the GOP are not as impressive
as they were.
The county boards draw the lines
for assembly districts in those c a s e s
where there is more than one d i s trict within a county. The boards
involved are Suffolk, Nassau, Orange, Dutchess, Albany, Onondaga,
Monroe, Broome, Oneida, Monroe,
Erie, and Niagara.
The Democrats now control Albany, Dutchess, and Niagara. Oneida's board i s tied as are two other
boards in single district counties.
Significance of These Election*
These assembly district lines will
be drawn early next year after
the state legislature redraws the
lines for the state senate. These
lines, unless voided by the courts
will remain in effect until at least
1971.
One Executive Election
A County Executive was elected
in only Suffolk County. This job
i s created usually in larger counties
in order to provide a full time
executive. The Democrat won reelection in this heavily Republican
county.
Although H. Lee Dennison's margin was a small one, his defeat
of a well-known, well-financed Republican is significant especially
in Suffolk. The only oilier Democrat
to win reelection in tiie county is
Congressman Otis Pike.
In general, in New York State
last week's elections were good
news for Democrats.
Other Parties
The Conservative Party fielded
a few candidates in New York City.
They lost as was expected. Their
vote was note exceptional, but the
fact that they held together showed
strength for ttie party.
Many people expected the Conservatives to begin splitting as soon
as their anti-Rockefeller goal was
removed. This last election showed
that the members of the party are
angered not only at Hock-feller, but
at the GOP set-up in the state.
The Liberal party also fielded a
few independent candidates in the
big city. They ran ahead of the
Conservatives in most places, but
they also lost. Brooklyn was the
only place they even came close
to winning.
If one wants to look closely enough,
any partisan can find something to
be happy about in the last elections.
Senate Committee
Unites Activities
Stud l Gmups
<*
T,
by Dave Gagnier
One of the busiest of the seven
standing committees in Student Senate is the S e r v i c e s Committee,
headed by Jim Miles.
The purpose of Services Committee is to act as a coordinator
between: (1) students and the administration, and (2) between students
and the service groups on campus.
Speaks to Administration
As coordinator between the student body and the administration,
Services Committee receives suggestions and complaints from students concerning the academic and
dormitory facilities, and the school
calendar of events.
These are forwarded to the appropriate person or group, depending who has jurisdiction in that
area. Usually the administration
will suggest some action which they
believe will benefit the student body.
Services Committee then refers
it to the appropriate student organization or carries it out themselves.
P a r a l l e l with Organizations
As liaison between students and
the service groups on campus, much
the same policy is carried out as
is done witli the university administration. The activities in this area
are closely related to those of
Campus Commission; thus much
work is done with this group.
Members
Senators on the Committee are
Bonnie Batchelor '04, Joseph Cardone '04, Marietta Raneri '04, Ronald Hamilton '0!j, Fred Rawe '65,
Carol Darby 'OH, Antoinette Quartararo '05, and Allan Smith '00.
The Committee was established
approximately eight years- ago to
carry out ttie suggestions of ttie
student body. During the past eight
months Services C o in in i 11 e e has
been busy with several activities.
Committee Activities
A s u m m a r i z e d list of our activi(continued on page 7)
We are still Klgrims
We no longer give thanks around a rough wooden
table in a forest clearing. Our problems and
rewards have taken different shapes too, but
they are basically the same.
We are still making a pilgrimage, the same
search for a fuller and more fruitful life under
freedom of religion. And we are still thankful
for the faith that sees us through adversity
and guides us on that pilgrimage.
Thanksgiving Day was named for its meaning
— the day that we come together to give thanks
for our faith and our full life . . . and to
remember that we are still pilgrims.
This Thanksgiving Day, give your thanks,
strengthen your faith, enlighten your
pilgrimage, at your place of worship.
The American
Albany—the City
by John Marion
Election day this y e a r held a s u r p r i s e for the
Democratic machine in Albany. While O'Connell's
boys had no problem in Albany itself, Cohoes was
a d i s a s t e r from their point of view.
In a city where there hasn't been a non-Democratic
mayor in 34 y e a r s , Dr. J a m e s E. McDonald, the
Citizens P a r t y candidate and son of the last Republican
mayor scored a decisive victory by defeating the
Democratic candidate by over 1,400 votes out of some
10,000 votes cast.
The Citizens P a r t y also swept two a s s e s s o r posts
and three of the six Common Council seats to put
them firmly in control of the city government. It is
hoped by Cohoes people that the new l e a d e r s will
bring about many much-needed r e f o r m s .
Corruption Accusations Unfounded
While no real evidence of corruption has been found
to be conclusive, many people have suspected the
Democrats of i r r e g u l a r i t i e s in the administration
of the city government. Voting frauds have been
suspected in the past but the Democrats have always
emerged lily-white.
While the incidence of corruption in the government
of Albany has long been obvious, little fuss has e v e r
been made over Cohoes. One fact that has been
pointed out, however, is that rejoicing after the election
was so great that the State Police were almost used,
pointing out the popularity of the Citizens Party
to be g r e a t e r than the election r e t u r n s would show.
It would appear that the end is in sight for what
has been called by some, " t h e most efficiently corrupt
administration in the country." The efficiency of the
O'Connell machine is due to the fact that while he
milks the city he manages to convince the people
that he is doing a great deal of good.
"Benevolent Dictator"
When one notices the state of Albany s t r e e t s and
the city's r e s i s t a n c e to the South Mall project, he
can't help wondering how "Uncle Dan" manages to
perpetuate the myth of his benevolence. WhenMcGeorge
Bundy, special assistant to the President, visited
Albany to speak for the World Affairs Council he
referred to Mayor Corning as " t h e only mayor in
the country with tenure "
At a memorial service for Medgar Rvars, the
NAACP field s e c r e t a r y who was shot this s u m m e r .
Mayor Corning pledged his support to the civil rights
movement. When he had finished speaking the m a s t e r
of ceremonies announced, "We will now sing the
Battle Hymn of the Republicans — oh, I mean the
Republic." General laughter followed.
More and more incidents a r e starting to point
out the peoples' dissatisfaction w i t h the present
administration. Kven the local newspapers a r e starting
to make public condemnations of the Democratic
machine. After 40 y e a r s of iron-listed rule it appears
that the days of the O'Connell kingdom a r e numbered.

Federal Bureaucracy
MYSKANIA Investigates Student Morality
Marked by Inefficiency
Is State University an Amoral University Community?
by J. Roger Lee
Mucli political criticism today
tends to center upon Congress.
This institution, if one believes the
popular social critics, i s reactionary, obstructive, prone l o porkbarrel legislation, and blind to the
messianic activities of enlightened
bureaucrats.
Bureaucratic activity, tlie record
shows, is not all that these "true
b e l i e v e r s " would
have ilie public believe. Waste is IIDI
uncommon in the administrative s e e l (i r
of our government.
The following examples have a l l l i e e n
taken from tlie public p r e s s and tend to illustrate'the
naivete of those with laith in slatism.
A.I.D.
The Agency lor international Development lias been responsible t'nr
many lollies. It has to its credit,
a highway in Vietnam, the rust ill
which s o a r e d lroiii $18 million lb
more than $129 million during construction.
It lias purchased $400,000 worth
of twenty-three inch TV sets lor use
in i-niiiinunit> education p r o g r a m s
and lias sent them to a r e a s with no
e l e c t r i c power supply.
Also to its credit is a $34 million
fertilizer plant in Taiwan which was
inoperable because the equipment
did not meet the specilications lor
the d e s i r e d operat ion.
AID has been reported to have
given .i $3.1 million \acht lo the
E m p e r o r of Ethiopia, $400,000 worth
ot l a t t e r y powered TV s e t s to remold
jungle u l l a g e s , s u n s to G r e e k
u n d e r t a k e r s , and extra wives to
government officials in Kenya.
Defense
T h e Defense Department purchased foriy-seven r a d a r p r e d i c t o r s
from a British firm lor $2,145,739.
GO. It then declared them to be s u r plus and sold llioin back (still und a t e d ) t o the .same I i r in fo i
$114,noo.
The government of Portugal then
bought them from the British firm
with $493,ri00 that it had originally
received from the U.S. The total
cost to the American taxpayer was
$2,524,739.00 plus shipping charges.
Tiie Defense Department is veryprone lo ignore the workings of the
free market and to award contracts
on anon-competitive, "soli*source"
basis. The AN/SPS 10 Radar lias
been purchased under sole source
unit prices of $40,000, $27,000 and
$33,297. After the contracts were
open to competitive bidding, the unit
price dropped to $17,083. Loss to the
taxpayer was $3.9 million.
Power Short-Circuited
The PP-2100/AKC 27 Power Supply unit price for a $2.fi million sole
source contract was $360. Subsequent competitive unit p r i c e was
$180. Loss lo the taxpayer was
$1.25 million.
!• illy-one A N/A PS 88 Airborn
Kadar s e t s were bought at a sole
source unit pi ice ol $30,1100. This
r e p r e s e n t s a $501,000 loss since
alter competition, the Unit p r i c e
dropped lo $17,247.
The case ol the AN/WHT-1 and
AN/WHT-2 Radios o t t e r s a perfect
example ol sole s o u r c e p r o c u r e ment. There were two c o n t r a c t s
issued on a sole source basis for
these i t e m s .
The In si was lor $12.8 million ai
a unit pi ice ol $29,72.7. The second
was lor $12.1 million al $19,200 pel
item. Abet competitive bidding was
allowed, the unit p r i c e dropped to
$111,498, showing a l o s s ol $15
million.
Endless L i s t
R e s t r i c t i o n s ol space forbid anything but mention ol the $000,000

Are the attitudes and standards of the m e m b e r s of
this community what they should be? These questions
a r e among those which, for some t i m e , were h i b e r nating in the backs of the minds of v a r i o u s individuals
within this university community and which were ultimately brought to the foreground by such incidents
a s Cortland.
Some individuals chose to ignore the situation, p e r haps in the hope it would cease to exist. Some laughed
it away, saying it was merely college students "having
fun in their own inimitable way."
The majority of the university population,however,
voiced their reactions in various ways. They wrote
a r t i c l e s , held vehement discussions among themselves,
o r started examining with a more c r i t i c a l eye what
they saw around them and participated in. Many felt
that a situation existed detrimental to t h e m s e l . e s as
students of this University, and to the University
as a whole.
Committee Formed
MYSKANIA heard and gauged these reactions, and,
at the beginning of this s e m e s t e r , a committee was
formed to study carefully the attitudes and standards
prevalent on this campus in the hope that perhaps
some answers could be found as to why an incident
such as Cortland happened.
All questions raised were taken into account not
with the view that the University or individual m e m b e r s
were to be judged and found guilty or not guilty, but
on the b a s i s that if a situation does exist which is
really detri mental to till within the University, there
must be reasons, and these reasons should be brought
to light.
Why did Cortland happen? Was it an isolated incident
which has no relation to attitudes and standards
prevalent on this campus? Is it perhaps the ultimate
result of crowded conditions and i n c r e a s e d academic
p r e s s u r e s in this "University in T r a n s i t i o n ? "
Or, does it stem back farther into the history of
this college? Is it only the actions and events which
took place at Cortland which are important? Is there
nothing which happens here that sheds a bad light
on the students and faculty? Does " p e e r group p r e s s u r e "
enter into all this somehow?
Are the actions around us a form of rebellion?
If so, why and against what? Too many r e s t r i c t i o n s ?
Or, does n come from too much personal freedom
and not enough maturity to handle this freedom?
Who has the ultimate responsibility for moral and
ethical standards within this academic community:
the University, the faculty, the students, the individual,
o r till of these components?

lack of interest on many S e n a t o r s '
parts.
S e n s e of R e s p o n s i b i l i t y
How far does one's own sense of responsibility
extend? And, does it ever end? Most important of
all, is there really such a situation present that
students should take time1 to examine and evaluate
it'.' Or, is all this questioning merely another way
to keep the m e m b e r s of MYSKANIA happily busy and
occupied?
What do you think'.' If there is interest present
concerning these questions and issues mentioned herein,
this interest should be voiced in whatever manner
you think most worthwhile, whether it be newspaper
a r t i c l e s , or written or verbal m e s s a g e s to the individual
m e m b e r s of MYSKANIA,
MYSKANIA both needs and wants your reactions
and opinions. If a situation exists which s e e m s to
be worth consideration, MYSKANIA will continue to
look into it. If, on the other hand, no such situation

NOTICE
AMIA Kegling Loop got underway this week for what looks like
a fine season.
Intramural Players
I n t r a m u r a l w r e s t l e r s can work
out frojn 3:30 to 4:30 daily s t a r t ing F r i d a y , Nov. 1.
T h e r e will be 5 A.M.I.A. b a s k e t ball l e a g u e s this y e a r . Team c a p tains must r e g i s t e r their t e a m s
on the A.M.I.A. bulletin boards.
Team practices should start next
week in Page.
The r u m o r s that a r e going around the campus
about the future of football a r e so fascinating that
we feel almost reluctant to cast any light on the
situation.
We contacted the Dept. and asked questions that
we felt concerned the students. These a r e the answers
we received.
Q. Will there be a football team on the new campus?
A.
It's inevitable.
Q. What steps a r e being taken?
A.
There is a plan that will be submitted to AA
Board. It involves a three point p r o g r a m , an
initial equipment purchasing phase with a frosh
team the following y e a r a s phase two. The third
phase will be a regular varsity team.
Q. When is the proposed date?
A. If all goes according to schedule (meaning the
facilities at the new campus) 1965 is the tentitive starting date with 1967 a s the date for
the varsity season.
Q. Why wait so long to s t a r t ?
A.
Several r e a s o n s . F i r s t they need a place to
store the equipment. Second, you can't schedule
t e a m s for season play unless you make your
schedule up to three y e a r s in advance, this
is how far ahead schools plan their seasons.
Third, the expense of s t a r t i n g a team and
getting them on the road is too great to be
accomplished in one year.
How
official is the p r o g r a m ?
Q.
It is only a plan, subject to the approval of
A.
AA Board and President Collins.
We certainly hope that P r e s i d e n t Collins and AA
Board realize the student d e s i r e for a football team
and will give their approval to proceed with the plan.
We have e x p r e s s e d this d e s i r e and will continue to
do so until action is taken.

N O V E M B E R 15, 1 9 6 3
Yesterday afternoon at 3:15 p.m. State's widely acclaimed c r o s s country team
left Albany via Mohawk Airlines fit #26, their destination Idlewilde Airport, N.Y.C.
There they boarded a DC-8 jet and winged their way to the windy city, Chicago.
Met at Chicago by Wheaton officials, they were driven to the Ellyn Motel.
It was the beginning of the biggest event of the y e a r for the H a r r i e r s . Five
t e a m m e m b e r s boarded that plane, but the hopes of teammates that couldn't go
and the hopes of an entire student body also boarded that plane. The lucky five,
Tom Robinson, Dennis Tuttle, John Clark, Ken Kirik and Howie Marriam were
their usual quiet selves. The task before them was great. They would be competing against the finest t e a m s in the country, many of which recruited their
athletes by offering scholarships.
A spotless season record of 7-0 in dual competition were the credentials
that allowed them to join the exclusive squads at Wheaton. Saturday morning
they will make their final preparations and toe the line with four minute m i l e r s ,
undefeated t e a m s , regional and national record holders. The highest hopes are
held for Tom Robinson, State's junior sensation. A nervous, anxious and determined
team waits for tomorrow.

Peds Beat Post 3-2 in Final Game
End Season with 3 Wins 7 Defeats
On Saturday November 9, the Peds of Albany State played host to the Varsity
of C.W. Post. The Peds bought in a record of two wins and seven losses while Post
had a record of four wins, five losses and two ties. The field, which had been
drenched the last two days with two inches of rain, was covered with mud which
hampered play. In the opening minutes of play the Ped fans were thrilled by John
Schneider and ('do fluddat.
They were able to get off three shots at the Post goal but the ball did not penetrate the goal. Guddat centered the ball in front of the goal and Schneider tried
heading il in but the ball sailed over the goal posts. Then at 16:48 of the first
q u a r t e r , Schneider fed the ball to Guddat who scored. In the second quarter
State dominated play and had several shots at the Post goal.
Fred Itawe, who s t a r r e d for the Peds, booted the ball at the goal but it hit
the top of the goal posts
and bounded over.

Play Review
'The Stronger' Highlights Four
Generally Good AD Presentations
by Skip Schrelber
A o n e - a c t play often tends to
an e x t r e m e : e i t h e r it h a s little
plot and c h a r a c t e r i z a t i o n and d r a g s
o n , o r it suddenly stops just when
it s t a r t s to get going.
" T h e Tiny C l o s e t , " by William
Inge, l i e s at the first e x t r e m e .
C o n c e r n e d with the i n t e r a c t i o n s of
a landlady and her r a t h e r sensitive
b o a r d e r who m a k e s hats in his s p a r e
t i m e and locks them in his closet,
the play never goes anywhere and
a t t e m p t s to hold the audience with
s o m e t r i t e humor and an overworked
" s u r p r i s e mystery ending."
" T h e Golden A x e "
" T h e G o l d e n A x e , " by Ralph
Scholl, is a clever t r e a t m e n t of
an Ozark Mountaineer who chops
down a billboard because it d e s t r o y s
the view, and of his subsequent
involvement with the Widow E v a n s .
All t h r e e c h a r a c t e r i z a t i o n s were
excellent, except for the occasional
shifts in dialect.
Eve C h a m b e r s did a magnificent
job, and T e r r y F i t z g e r a l d and Robert
Dietz ran an e x t r e m e l y close second
with their s e n s e of timingand ridiculous m o v e m e n t s . Nancy Delain's
direction made this play very enjoyable.
Pauline Arasim and Jon Barden, winners of the first prize at
the Religious Arts Festival at R . P . I .
Eternal T r i a n g l e
F i n e Characterization
The play would have been a c o m plete l o s s without Alice Katz who
did a fine c h a r a c t e r i z a t i o n of M r s .
C r o s b y , a role occasionally s m a c k ing of Imogene Coca.
Lois Rathbone as M r s . H e r g e s h e i m e r was fairly good, but only
b e c a u s e she was not in the s c e n e
very much. Richard Hoeth was stiff
and often r e g r e s s e d to a " b r o w c l u t c h i n g " style of method acting
gone s t a l e . Sliari Townseiid did a
commendable jofc of making the
play somewhat palatable.
"Something Unspoken," by T e n n e s s e e Williams, is an unbelievably
bad play. The a u t h o r ' s attempt
( c h a r a c t e r i s t i c of much of his work)
to find a workable c h a r a c t e r in the
neurotic fringe of faded Southern
a r i s t o c r a t i c women fails m i s e r a b l y .
Gladys Winkworth was very good
a s Cornelia Scott — a woman unable
to v e r b a l i z e the feelings walled up
within h e r .
C a t h e r i n e B a r k e r was just not
convincing as the middle-age s e c r e t a r y , and her supposed feelings of
i n e x p r e s s i b l e anxiety and hate came
out m o r e like an adolescent whine
and t e m p e r tantrum. Sharon House
directed well a play which is a
deadly b o r e .
In " T h e S t r o n g e r , " Strindberg
gives an interesting t r e a t m e n t to
feminism and the e t e r n a l t r i a n g l e .
In a scathing indictment of the
t r e a c h e r y of egocentricity in women,
he p r e s e n t s the t h e s i s that the
m a r r i e d a c t r e s s , knowing of her
husband's affair with the u n m a r r i e d
a c t r e s s , is nonetheless s t r o n g e r
because she can still love her h u s band.
Mary Temple as M r s . X was
magnificent and s u p e r b in a r o l e
which r e q u i r e d constantly changing
moods and an emotional autobiography of a distraught and frantic
woman. Brenda Smith a s the unm a r r i e d and silent a c t r e s s was
excellent in a r a t h e r difficult r o l e .
Roz F e r r a r a ' s direction was e x ceptional and never let the play
slip into drippy sentiment or d i d a c tic m o r a l i z i n g .
K e y n o t e Simpl i c i t y
Simplicity was the keynote of
the four productions. Most notably
poor was the lighting.
Only " T h e S t r o n g e r " had any
noticeable special effects, and these
for too short a t i m e . It s e e m s as
if the s p a r s e n e s s of the settings
c a r r i e d over into the lighting, with
the result that the a c t o r s were in
an unfortunate position of having
to solely c r e a t e and sustain the
moods for each plav.

Disney Picture, 'Fantasia'
Still Great bilm Treat
by P a u l Jensen
Originally released in 1940, Walt
Disney's F a n t a s i a was very much
an innovation in its attempt at visual
i n t e r p r e t a t i o n s of music. Such things
have been done since, by Norman
McLaren for t h e National Film
Board of Canada, but these have
all been much s h o r t e r than this
e a r l i e r feature film.

The Nutcracker Suite, which follows, depicts elements of the a r r i v a l

evolution of life on Earth through
the d e m i s e oi the d i n o s a u r s .
Beethoven's Sixth Symphony is
given a p a s t o r a l , mythological t r e a t ment, featuring c o n t a i n s , unicorns,
and various and sundry gods and godd e s s e s . The Dance of the Hours is
p r e s e n t e d humorously, with o s t r i c h e s , hippopotami, elephants and
alligators attempting a ballet.

C I R T N E COGE
by Libby Stroud
It's a shame how often truth and drinking go hand
in hand; it's even sadder how often drinking is used
as an escape Have you ever examined the reasons
for drinking - not just the "one b e e r ' with the gang,
but to e x c e s s ?
What is it that a t t r a c t s so many who never drank
in high school? Are p r e s s u r e s — both social and
scholastic — so unbearable that people are literally
forced to drink? It's such a complex problem that
no one answer is possible, but evidence of its existence
can lie found any Friday o r Saturday night.
Just walk into any bar — il you can hnd room,
and listen. Laughter is loud — too loud; conversation
flows freely — too freely, in many c a s e s , for the;
more sober moments later on. Students go through
an alcoholic metamorphosis, mil all that's been bottled
up spews forth "like a bottle of warm b e e r . "
What kind of an existence is it that considers
drunkenness a necessity, many times, or an excuse
for speaking one's mind? Can't meaningful things
be expressed in any atmosphere; tire innermost thoughts
forced into secrecy by sobriety?
I sincerely hope that this isn't generally the c a s e .
I hope that people — students — can ace responsibility, p r e s s u r e , can live through the school week
without finding it necessary to consistently T. (J.I.F.
and T.(i I.S. before lacing another week.
I hont that students can talk: and s h a r e , can be more
than superficial without withdi iwing to theii shells
come Monday, with a rationalizing (Jood-bye, moment
