Led by Tom Robinson's record breaking performance, the cross-country team topped Siena 20-39,
Tuesday, at Siena's home course. Robinson, who has
now smashed the Siena course record for the third

Bill Schieffelin: New Frosh Coach
Two years ago Albany State lost
Its Homecoming soccer game 2-0 to
Brockport. One of Brockport's outstanding players In that game was
BUI Schieffelin. This year the frosh
soccer, 'basketball, and baseball
teams will be coached by the same
Bill Schieffelin.
After getting his B.S. in physical
education, Coach Schieffelin attended the University of North Cara-
Una to study for his Master's Degree. While at North Carolina, he
coached the freshman soccer team.
Eventually, he Intends to extend his
education to the doctoral level.
Prior to attending Brockport,
Coach Schieffelin served a hitch in
the Marine Corps. He grew up in
Rochester, where he attended West
High School. At West High he participated in swimming, soccer, and
baseball.
Commenting on his first few weeks
at State, Coach Schieffelin said, " I
really enjoy working with the frosh
soccer team; they're a fine group of
boys." He also noted that he has
found the other members of the
physical
education
department
pleasant men to work with.

"As far as physical facilities at
Albany are concerned, I'm much
more impressed with future perspective rather tnan present facilities," Coach Schieffelin said.
He is married and has one child,
a son who is eighteen months old.

If Tom Robinson wins the LeMoyne Invitational
Meet tomorrow, he will have accomplished one of the
most outstanding athletic feats in this school's history.
Robinson has won this fifteen-team meet the past two
years, setting a new record the first year and breaking
his own record last year.
It is very unusual for a cross-country meet such as
LeMoyne, which annually has many of the state's finest
runners participating, to be dominated by the same person for more than one year. But, Tom Robinson is certainly not a usual runner.
Since cross-country's inception at State two years
ago, the team has competed in fourteen dual meets and
two triangular meets; Robinson has won every one of
these meets. Cross-country Coach Keith Munsey explains Robinson's fantastic success in this way: "The.
red-head is a very smart runner and he just doesn't
like to lose."
Coach Munsey feels Robinson is the man that the,
other runners will have to beat on Saturday. "There
are a lot of very strong runners competing Saturday,
but Tom has won this race twice and they all realize
that they will have to run a whale of a race to finish
ahead of the red-head," Coach Munsey said.
Led by Robinson's first place last year at LeMoyne
and John Clark's seventh place State finished third in
the overall team competition. This year, with Dennis
Tuttle, Bob Flick, Ed Brown, Ken Darmer, and Jake
Johnville, in addition to Robinson and Clark, the team
has a good chance to repeat its third place and an
outside chance to take first place honors.

to Syracuse to compete in the LeMoyne Invitational Meet. Last year
State finished third in this meet,
while Robinson captured individual
honors with a record-breaking performance.
Competing in their first meet for
State, the frosh Harriers swamped
Siena's freshmen; Albany's frosh
swept the first sixth places in the
race. Grant Downs and Joe Keating
captured first and second place r e spectively. Downs turned in an excellent 18:32.7 clocking and Keating
finished only one second behind him.
Two State women were victims of a holdup of a local business and a purse-snatching
late last Friday night. The two incidents occurred within half an hour of each other.
Janice Burke and Darlene Spencer, both
Sophomores and Sayles Hall residents, had
entered Cappiello's Pizzeria on Madison
Avenue at about 12:25 p.m. Shortly thereafter,
a man entered the store with a gun in his
hand, threw a paper bag on the counter, and

nolly taking a slight lead. Their
pace was extremely fast for the
first mile. They completed the first
mile in five minutes. At that point
Robinson took over the lead and did
not relinquish it for the remainder
of the race.
Coach Keith Munsey was very
satisfied with Tuttle's third place
finish. "I didn't think that Tuttle
was in such good shape," Coach
Munsey said. He also pointed out
that Flick was hampered during the
race with severe pain in his stomach.
Both Teams improved
Munsey noted that both teams
were much improved since last
year. He offered as evidence of ttds
fact John Clark's fifth place finish.
Clark, who finished fourth in this
meet last year, improved his time
by twenty seconds but dropped one
slot in the individual placing.

We regard the recent creation of the post of Public Relations Director as a highly worthwhile step
in fostering better communications within the University community.
This long, overdue move should go a long way
towards ending the confusions, lapses, and misunderstandings that have marked the administration's
rather half-hearted attempts to make its purposes and
alms known to the student body in the past.
Accurate public relations, especially for institutions the size of this University, a r e an accepted and
indeed a vital part in securing rapport between a
secure hierarchy and great numbers of individual
people. In the past our administration has too often
overlooked this simple method of making itself better
understood.
The problems that the University presently faces,
and will face for years to come, demand that a workable means of communications be in operation. Any
breakdown can only be to the University's disadvan-
Goldy Mocks - the Rain Daddy
by David Child*
The only Indication that the United States is a nation
of free people comes once every four years or during
wars. When elections and wars coincide, the nation
becomes more servile and dependent than during
normalcy years because men have little choice but
to keep the ship afloat.
With no outstanding war present now, the nation
is out-performing itself with banner-waving. The
deafening artillery of press propaganda of two battling
low-blow factions has made political discussion the
most active topic of everyday gossip.
Thus, when Barry (short for some unknown name)
Goldwater (a bitter softdrink) blew into town last
Friday, a surprisingly large audience greeted him.
But, to be sure, it was not a partisan crowd but a
conglomeration of curious school-skipping students,
time-off state employees, paid standard bearers,
radio, television, and newspaper commentators, a
handful of genuine conservatives, and a number of
representative hecklers such as CORE.
No Sensationalism
Most expected to see an ogre surrounded by shock
troops or maybe see a slow drawling southerner
sporting a KKK outfit. They might have hoped to
hear him spout some outlandish accusation or promlse to do some Impossible task if elected. His well
wishers longed to hear Rocky make a firm approval
of Goldy. None of these sensations materialized.
For forty-five minutes before the candidates a r rival, the Al Smith Building scene was a dull combination of unmovlng carnival attempts at exciting
the masses and soft murmurings of wisecracks about
the man. Albany and this state are not expected to
elect AUH20 and thus those who favored him were
looked upon as fanatics.
Republican Drought-Breaker
In the case of tills rally, words spoke louder than
cheers as signs abounded. One Interesting warning
was, "Goldwater - '64, Bread and Water — •65,
*R*
Water - '66, No Water - ' 6 7 " and yet Barry spoke,
" I am happy to say that a Republican brought an
end to the drought." In fact that day produced the
first rain Albany had seen In a month. His enemies
would have said that the drizzle was an omen of
bad weather In the future with the rainmaker.
The police were well aware that Goldwater Is a
figure surrounded by amblvalance. There are some
who hate or fear his ideas. Thus there were numerous bulls In blue on the rally beat. Where these cops
came from Is anyone's guess for most looked like
men lucky to find a day's work.
Only a few had pistols and most were very uncertain a s to "what's to be done." Also, the crowd .
was Infiltrated by a number of private dicks whose
brilliant and shifty eyes gave away their disguise.
There were trouble-shooters on top of adjacent
buildings.
One Man Against Many
No denying the fact that Barry is courageous as
he i s bucking a complacent nation, an entire Republican Party, and a strenuous itinerary, yet he
must have a slight fear that some psycopath might
unseat him before the election. Barry i s rocking
the boat and the nation cannot figure for whose good.
No ovation greeted the well-tanned, handsome
stumper but he surely quelled a few doubts about
looking like a devil. The Governor, in his foolish
or intelligent political understanding, refrained from
endorsing Goldwater. Rocky is gambling. He does not
expect the elephants to stampede this year so he
reserved his judgment with hopes for his own nomination in '68. Rocky was at his ineloquent best as
he addressed the folks concerning Barry's loyalty to
the party.
But the main speaker finally spoke for a few
iptnutes. The striking feature of his chat was that,
notwithstanding examples of his sarcastic slurs of
shady administration, the man is great at the soft
sell. He did not shout, use base sympathy, nor blow
fire. His appearance was that of a stalwart of "freedom" (said the word humpteen times) in the Washington manner.
He had nothing new to say but he repeated his
message perfectly and with a minimal glance at
his script. He acted a true party chum by flattering
Rocky and the State plus Keating. If Barry does
nothing more on his million mile march he will
have been a good party leader for praising every
Republican candidate in the nation
T h e y are) from left to right: Linda Linsenbarth, Evelyn Bory,
No Return C o m p l i m e n t
The next day he somehow made it to Michigan
where he pushed for Romney but received no r e turn compliment. As a syndicated columnist has
said, there are now three parties and If Barry
fails, Wallace of Alabama will play the third man
theme.
Though Barry knew he had no chance here, he
nonetheless won many votes from the befuddled
crowd. However, one wonders if some unknown
might not throw his hat in before the day and miraculously pull off an unprecedented write-in victory.
The new Public Relations Director, Mr. Van Dyck,
seems admirably well-qualified for his new position.

We were pleased with the large
number of college-age people who

is necessary for a successful rally.
We believe that these young men

What good Is a newspaper if It
doesn't serve as a means of communication for all students but Instead functions as a gossip column?
I refer to almost half of page two
of last Tuesday's newspaper.
The week before last two notices
were submitted to responsible
people with sufficient time for publication. The result was that neither
was published, either In Friday's
or Tuesday's paper.
The notices pertained to tryouts
for the Advanced Dramatics class.
In order for the State University
Theatre to function as a creative
part of the school, the student body
should be informed of opportunities
to gain theatrical experience.
Is it that the editors value Student Union gossip (p. 2) to notices
of productive and creative activities?
Or perhaps it is mandatory In
publications (as it seems to be at
this schoool) to leave one quarter
of an Inch of space between every
two lines regardless of sentence
structure, emphasis in meaning,
or facility of reading and in so
doing, waste space because perhaps they have lost a few articles
and need filler?

I was puzzled by your September
25 editorial entitled "Mission Accomplished?'' In it, your editor a s serted that the three Mississippi
civil rights workers murdered this
summer had no business being there,
could accomplish nothing, and " e x posed themsleves recklessly on an
ill-conceived mission."
Perhaps so. But the editorial
led logically to two implications.
First, people In areas such as
Philadelphia (which abound in " i g norance, poverty, and race hatred"
according to your editor) ought to
be abandoned to the forces which
run these communities.
Second, efforts to bring such areas
back into the main-stream of American life, to abolish their "ignorance, poverty, and race hatred,"
ought to be accompanied by greater
protection for the reformers.
What does your editor want, independence for the unreformable
South or a new reconstruction under I lie aegis of federal military
occupation? I find both these alternatives uncomfortable to say the
least.

It seems that Bobby Kennedy has
stirred up much anguish in the
hearts of New Yorl.ers. Many fear
that if elected he will not be able
to represent us adequately since
he has not been a resident in our
state very long.
Yet every four years we cnoose
a man from one state to represent
all fifty states and have few qualms
about his ability to do so.
Now two men from western and
southern states are running on our
National ticket, but we expect that
whoever is elected will represent
the North as well as the South and
West plus Alaska and Hawaii. Yet
Bobby Kennedy is running for an
office in a state which borders on
his own.
Kennedy's positionlsaprecarlous
one simply because he is not from
this state. He must be even better
informed about New York State affairs than the other candidate because people will constantly be questioning him about them.

" F o r those who took part, It was
a success," said Bill Bate, chairman of the University Field Day
which was held on Saturday, October
3.
About two hundred students participated in this, the first annual
University Field Day. All four
classes competed against each other
with the class of '66 emerging victorious.
The event was part of the Fall Induction Program for freshmen.
Competitions were held in men's
volleyball, women's volleyball, coed
volleyball, a balloon toos, men's
Softball, women's Softball, women's
tug-of-war, and men's tug-of-war.
There were fourteen points
awarded for each event — five for
first, four for second, three for
third, and two for fourth.
Several of the events resulted in
ties for one or more of the places.
Sjich ties occurred in all the volleyball matches. A mix-up in the balloon toss resulted in points being
split equally among the classes
there also.

Changes in motel bus pick-up
points and the installation of a
walkie-talkie system were among
the steps taken last weok to Insure
greater protection lor students at
night.
Action came In response to complaints by students that they had
been annoyed while waiting for
buses. The need for mure efficient
protection was further emphasized
by the purse-snatching which occurred In front of Waterbury Hall
last Friday night.
In order to keep students from
having to wait for busos in Illlighted spots far from buildings,
buses will now pick up students
from In front of Brubacher Hall

pick-up points will lie maintained,
Same Guards
No new guards have been added
to the security staff. At present the
University employs two security
guards and one night watchman.
At least one man is on duty at the
Residence Quadrangle between 7
p.m. and 3 a.m. every night. Extra
protection is provided for weekends,
in addition, the uniformed security
guard who works at Draper Is required to drive around the residence
hulls making a check liefore he goes
off duty at 11 p.m.
The walkie-talkie system which
was put into effect Monday night,
provides a fast method of communication with the night watchman.
Since he does not adhere to a rigid
schedule, It Is Impossible to determine where ho will be at a given
moment.
Control Point In Bru
Therefore, a walkie-talkie has
been placed in the main office of
Brubacher Hall. In cuso of trouble,
a call to the Brubacher switchboard
will enable the person on duty to
summon the night watchman to the
spot immediately.
If, as Is sometimes the case, the
switchboard Is busy, a girl Is to
be sent to the Brubacher office to
deliver the message.
The administration feels that
these new changes will allow guards
to be where they are needed most,
and thus will offer morn adequate
protection to everyone.
Senate Rules
Introduced, then tabled for the
mandatory period of three weeks,
were the Senate Rules. The three

Anne Dlgney, is the culmination
of more than a semester of debate

fj
A few of the foreign students have
been asked to speak on current political crises and conditions in their

Outing dub Invades Lake George
With Six Hundred Brave Campers
"It was a hard, rough weekend,"
said Ruth Whiting, President of Outing Club, "but it, was great."
Miss Whiting headed the group of
60 Outing Clubbers who spent last
Friday through Sunday at the Invitational Fall Lake George Weekend.
The event was held on Turtle Island
in Lake George. It was sponsored
by the Rensselaer Outing Club from
R.P.I.
More than 600 students from 40
colleges participated in the weekend.
Campers came from as far away
as the University of Chicago and
McGill University in Montreal.
Canoeing Popular
Canoeing proved to be the major
activity of the three-day outing.
Aside from one small powerboat,
canoes were the only means of
transportation to and from the Island. The lake was extremely rough
all weekend, so even the inexperienced were quickly Initiated to the
handling of canoes.
Most of Friday night was taken
with setting up camp, as groups
arrived all through the evening. A
heavy rain made preparations difficult, but the weather cleared by
the next day.
Saturday was spent in more canoeing by those who wanted to fight
the four foot waves. Others went
to shore and spent the day climbing Black or Tongue Mountains.
Song and Dance
At night many campers crossed
to Mohican Island for a square
dance. A song fest drew others.
Aside from the major traffic jam
which occurred as 600 people tried
to get off the island, Sunday was an
uneventful day.
The Lake George trip marks the
first major event for Outing Club
this year. Smaller groups often get
together for bike hikes, mountain
climbing, and other sports.
During the winter Outing Club
groups travel to area ski slopes
almost every weekend.
The next event will be a Halloween caving party in one of the
caves in the area.

Teaching Program
Reasons for Growth
The teaching program still remains the most prevalent among
freshman with 700 students. Although the general program has
been in effect for only three years,
400 students have registered under
this. For eacli major field, more
students In the freshman class are
registered under tlie teaching program except in the science department.
The University received approximately 5000 applications this past
year. Of these, only 1800applicants,
Including freshmen, transfer and
special > students, registered this
year.
The University has picked up considerable attendance from out-of-,
state students. Most out-of-state
students are from New Jersey but
some have come as far as Arizona
Or. Schultze has pointed out several reasons contributing to the
growing popularity of Albany as
stated by the Freshmen on their
applications. The major reason put
fortli by students for attending this
institute was the good reputation of
the University.
Tlie second reason students chose
Albany was the atmosphere of the
college. Students liked the location
of the school In tlie state and they
were also enthusiastic about the new
campus. Another reason, closely
related to the reputation, was that
Albany was recommended by alumnae, guidance counselors, parents
and admissions personnel.
Curricular offerings and financial possibilities did not register

Emphasis on Property
Complements Individual
by Phyllis Flattery Pertodliw
"n glad I've graduated!
Void Left by Rivalry Unfilled
We have now gone along far enough
with the new substitute-for-Rivalry schedule to evaluate its total worth for'
this university campus. We base our
decision on the events experienced thus
far; the Bonfire, University Field Day,
and the Convocation. Add to this the
general lack of any unifying spirit, and
the picture becomes clear.
Last spring when it was decided that
the "best thing" for this campus would
be the elimination of a traditional rivalry period and the implications such a
period produced, it was thought that
events for four classes would pull the
university together in spirit without
creating a class consciousness.
Various inevitable committees mat
and planned this fall's events. Without
a focal point for their new program,
the idea of a new approach to peaceful
coexistence fell flat.
Organization, publicity, and primarily
interest, top the list of incompleteness
and virtual non-existence. So far, this
program of pseudo-rivalry has not met
previous expectations.
From the climate of opinion circulated
up to this point, especially by the freshmen members of this community, the
idea of a rivalry revival is not too unthinkable. If it enables one fourth of the
student body to make a smooth transition
into college life on this campus, then
maybe a return to the past is a valid
one.
New
Approach to Formats Needed
We think the time has come for Stu-
dent Association to take a long, hard
look at the concept of formal weekends
at State.
As presently organized these weekends are a tremendous drain on the
pocketbooks of a student body that in
the main could not be less interested
in them.
The spectacular fiasco of Junior Weekend last year, and the imminent failure
of Homecoming are indicative that something is seriously wrong with State's
approach to formal weekends.
Last semester only 50 couples attended
the Junior Weekend formal; as of Wednesday night only 200 tickets had been
sold for this Friday's folk concert at
the Washington Armory.
We feel that this waste will be stopped
only when an effort is made to obtain
"name performers" for the concert
portion of weekends, and when an effort
is made to make the formals far more
exclusive.
Judy Collins and the Modern Folk
Quartet might be less expensive than
Peter, Paul and Mary, but where is the
saving when three-quarters of available
tickets go unsold?
As for the formals, Universities this
size really have no need for high school
suit and tie type dances. A formal should
be just what its name implies. It should
be planned for relatively few students
(since it is only the few that attend
anyway) in mind.
Student Association must come to
face the realities of social life in the
University, and abandon an approach
has proved unworkable.
Senate
Shows More Action However, the fact that debate has so
We see that Senate has finally come
to the point where passage of Senate
Rules is likely. Even though this is over
a semester behind schedule, at least
Senate will not have to go through the
entire year operating under the rules
of its predecessor.
We understand that passage at this
time is due primarily to the fact that
the Senators held a special meeting to
iron out all their differences before the*
bill came onto the Senate floor.
If this had been done at the beginning
of last semester, a great deal of needless, time-consuming debate on the Senate floor would have been avoided, and
Senate would now be operating under
its own rules,
,!)•);.;

far been carried out in special meetings
shows, we hope, an increasing maturity
on the part of Senators.
The meetings have also been short
and usually to the point this year. There
has been less of a tendency to quibble
over parliamentary technicalities, and
most of the questions and debate have
been relevant to the issue.
If this trend continues, it will be the
best thing that has happened to Senate
in a long time. When Senators forego
the personal glory of having their arguments heard by the whole Senate, and
use the Senate meeting for final action
on bills rather than preliminary debate,
student government will stop marking
time and start moving ahead.

all concerned.
Is it proper to deprive one person
of his human rights to satisfy
another? It would appear to me a
mora equitable solution to accomplish the desired result through
love and understanding rather than
by hard and fast laws.
The Civil Rights Act calls for
desegregation of public accommodations and assists In legally elevating the Negro to equality with
whites. Is this all they want? I
think not. We must end prejudice,
and by this means alone can the
Negro ever hope for equality.

Instructor Visits Childhood Home

"Everything you do in Czechoslovakia becomes a crisis," Mrs. Laszlo Palagyi
stated in describing the trip she took abroad this summer. A Speech and Drama
instructor at State University, she had accompanied her husband on a visit to his
homeland.
Mr. Palagyi, a Hungarian, had spent part of his childhood in Slovakia — the
sector of Hungary that was ceded to the Czechs after World War I.
With an eloquent gesture, she
demonstrates: "The tears are always so close.'
