Edgar May
... V I S T A Speaker
Before Joining President Johnson's War on Poverty, Mr. May was
director of public welfare projects
for the Slate Charities Aid Association of New York, a private health
and welfare agency.
Ho was one of the early members
of the President's Task Force on
till) War Against Poverty, serving
as Sargent Shrlvor's assistant liefore ascending to his present post.
VISTA (Volunteers in Service to
America.), is one of the major programs of the War on Poverty and
will play a major part in today's
lecture. Its purpose Is to enroll
Americans for one year of service
In local anti-poverty programs
across the nation. Voluntoers are
paid a living subsistence allowance
during their term of service and
then a lump sum amounting to $B0
per month for each month served.
McGeoige Dundy, President Johnsou's clnef national security advisor, and Dr. George Kahin, chairman of Cornell University Southeast Asia program, are scheduled
to take part in the program. An
invitation has also been sent to
Secretary of Slate, Dean Rusk.
National authorities ill political
science and international affairs
from leading universities will also
partake In the discussion.
Some of tlie issues that are expected to be discussed are the risk
of nuclear war in tlie escalation of
tombing North Vietnam and If the
President's proposal for "unconditional discussion" includes the
final unification of North and South
Vietnam as provided for in the
Geneva agreements.
One of the major points of controversy expected to come up is the
censorship by the administration
on all news from Vietnam.
MYSKANIA held an open hearing at 9 p.m. Monday
night in response to vehement student criticism of the
1965 Torch. About 80 students attended the hearing to
voice their approval or disapproval of the yearbook.
Monday was the first day of official distribution of the
yearbook, and some 1100 copies had been given out.
Al Smith, who chaired
-inioiiociuiil" Empha.ized
the meeting, explained that
its p u r p o s e w a s to allow
1
'
students to express their
views and to indicate
whether they felt that some
type of action against the
yearbook was Warranted.
Smith stated that MYSKANIA
would make some type of formal
recommendations to President Colli.is if tlie hearing seemed to indicate sucii a need. He then opened
discussion to tlie floor.
Individual comments on the took
--ranggd~4roin—"MMerly • 'Ut j g a s M n e ^
with "pictures un'the poinfof being
pornographic" to "reflects the University more truly than any other
yearbook."
Tlie dissatisfaction centered on
two or three major points. The first
and most discussed was the use of
the theme "A University on the
Make" and tlie "overabundance"
of pictures of students "making
out." Included in tills were comments about captions used under
certain pictures, especially in the
Greek section, and about the
"double entendres" that allegedly
ran throughout tlie copy.
Other students were displeased
with tlie choice of pictures and the
arrangement and amount of space
given to them. Several omissions of
activities or individuals were also
nointed to.
Reputation Damage
By far the most widely circulated
argument was that the yearbook
might damage the reputation of the
students or the school if used, as it
usually is, as a recruitment device
for prospective freshmen.
Other students, in support of the
yearbook, claimed that its primary
purpose was not as a public relations tool, but as a recap of the
school's people and activities.
William Colgan, Editor-in-Chief
of the Torch, was present at the
hearing, and answered the charges,
lie defended his use of tlie theme
"A University on the Make" by
pointing out that tlie phrase has lieen
in Hie American vocabulary for many
years and was used by Woodrow
Wilson in regard to the "middleclass man on the make" — trying
to rise in the world.
The yearbook theme, said Colgan
atiempts to portray "the,y||versjty
trying to rise in the world," Me
also answered charges that there
was too much of an emphasis on
students "making out" and not
enough on Ihe intellectual aspect of
the University by stating that by
actual number, only 3 out of more
than 400 caudids involved tlie former activity, while there were manypictures of students in class and
studying on their own.
Finally, he stated that his purpose ill editing the yearbook was
"to portray the University as It Is
and especially students as they a r e . "
V . tMWTHWW1 tiMor 1 -\ The discussion, was again opened
to the floor, and while accusations
continued, several suggestions for
next year's book were made. These
ranged from popular election of the
editor, to formulating definite guidelines and purposes for the editor to
conform lo.
Smith called the meeting to a
close at 10:30 p.m. Afterwards he
indicated that MYSKANIA would try
to take no immediate action of any
kind, hut would continue to explore
tlie issue, and would discuss it with
President Collins.

The assembly, normally held at
the State Capitol, was moved to
Chancellors Hall because of political

Mrt Professor Combinesfrit,Talent Ninth Annual State Revue
for Candid View of Art, Society
by Cynthia Goodman
Mr. Thomas O'Connor
has the wit of the Irish
and eye of an artist. Put
them together, and the r e sult is some candid and
amusing views of contemporary art and society.
"It's-nice," is Assistant Art P r o fessor, Tom O'Connor's initial comment on the new campus complex,
"It promises to be a very handsome campus when it's complete,"
he continues, "It's certainly better
than what's being done on any other
University in the country."
However, Mr, O'Connor has some
Interesting objections. First, as a
lithographer, Professor O'Connor
confesses that his work is apt to
create a little dirt in an immaculate studio. In fact, O'Connor predicts that the crispy white newness
of the campus will present some
real problems in housekeeping.
"They're either going to have
to hire twice as many janitors,"
he predicts with a grin, " o r keep
the visitors away."
Yearbook Reflects University
After months . of careful selection,
composition, and planning, the Torch
has finally been put into general circulation. -From a task which began last
Spring, Torch Editor William Colgan
has managed to produce what in our
eyes 'is a competent and reliable r e flection of the story which is the State
University of New York at Albany.
Incorporating some of the best photography that has ever been made a part
of any Pedagogue or Torch, the yearbook staff has created a tasteful photoessay of this past year's events. .
A yearbook', in Colgan's view, a view
with which we heartily agree, comprises
the impressions one receives after going
to school here, living here, and taking
one long, direct look at things as they
campus will be "the most rewarding thing about the move."
Finally, the Professor warns, the
ultimate success of the campus will
depend on the skill with which additions a r e made to the existing lavout, for, according to O'Connor the

An "avid fan of old structures
rather than new ("If we had tlie
space we need, the old campus would
be fine."), Mr. O'Connor reflects
that the new showplace will noeessitate "keeping up an image.''

On the subject of contemporary
art, Mr. O'Connor Is no less nut.

The lithographer has little confidence in the extent to which motion pictures can become an art

(One of these creations was an 8hour film record of an old man

As for movies in general, Mr.
O'Connor good humoredly assures
us that "Movies are worse than

Of course, Mr. O'Connor explains, many phases of the popular

"Plans for the Future"
In 1954, the Moving Up Day committee decided to
produce tin All-College Show at the conclusion of MUD
to "unite all the c l a s s e s . " The show was an original
revue which featured Neil Brown '54 as the accompanist.
The following year, the show was not presented as
part of MUD, and the production became known as the
All-College Revue. Again the production was an original
revue, and the directors borrowed $350 from surplus to
stage the play. In 1956, the Revue again presented an
original work, " I t ' s A Social Thing."
However, in 1957 " f o r tho first time since it was
originally presented, the production was a 'prepared'
play" — "Plain and Fancy." The production was p r e sented on Parents' Weekend in March with the assistance of Karl A. B. Peterson, Paul Bruce Pettit, James

O'Connor hopes eventually to have

are now possible.
As It Is now, O'Connor goodnaturedly complains, he misses the
stimulation of working with students
who are Fine Arts majors and he
looks forward to the establishment
of the new school of Fine Arts.
The only note of real anger comes
into his voice when discussing the
lack of any real cultural or artistic
understanding In most people. Most
of the grade schools and high
schools, he feels, stress math and
science at the expense of art and
music.

With regard to the recent action

be little doubt, as the President indicated at the outset, that the landing of U. S. Marines was designed

Woodrow Wilson once remarked
that the power of the President In
the realm of foreign affairs "should

behind this Is simply that only the

The new mascot and the nickname, the " D a n e s , "

Flawless Vocal Production
In all her recordings Miss Moffo
has always displayed flawless vocal
production and in operatic, musical
comedy and popular music she r e veals excellent command of expression as well, The miniature
forms of art songs, however, want
a subtle range of nuance that Is not
so evident In her work here.
Eileen Farroll's Latest
Eileen Farrell's latest recording, SONGS AMERICA LOVES with
Robert Sharpies conducting the London Festival Orchestra and Chorus
(mono and stereo) won't add. any to
her stature, nor to that of London
Records.. On the contrary, there Is
almost nothing to recommend it and
a great deal against It. Sound r e production is poor; Miss Farrell's
voice is tired and edgy, scarcely
recognizable as the magnificent
voice one knows her to possess;
choral and orchestral arrangements
are blatant and raucous; expressive
emphasis on sensational effects is
all out of proportion.
In conclusion, Renata Tebaldl's
voice has regained its full beauty,
Ann Moffo has firmly established
herself as a fine diva, and Eileen
Farrell lias gained nothing from
her latest recording.
Ford Grant
In May-June of 1965 the Albany Institute of History
and Art is participating in this artist-in-residenoe
program. Its studio is being turned over to Al Blaustein of New York who is a recipient of a Ford grant.
He will make etchings nnd will be at the Institute
through June 19, beginning his program on Monday,
May 24.
Cooper Union
Al Blaustein was born in New York in 1924 and is'a
graduate of the Cooper Union Art School. A winner of
the Prix de Rome (1954-7) and the American Institute,
of Arts and Letters award (1958), he also merited
Guggenheim fellowships in 1958 and 1961. His very
active teaching career extends from instructing at the
Albright Art school in Buffalo and at the Cooper Union
Art School in New York, to his present posts at the
Yale Summer School and Pratt Institute. He is a visiting lecturer at Yale University.
Artist-in-Residence
While he occupies the studio at the Institute as a r tist-in-residence he will give informal demonstrations
of print-making. Etching is his favored graphic medium,
and serious artists are invited to drop in to observe
and to put questions to Mr. Blaustein. He will act as
Juror of Awards for the 30th Regional by Artists of
the Upper Hudson (May 25). Although Dr. Blaustein
will discuss his own show of paintings and prints, which
will be on the Institute top floor, during his sojourn
here, he will not go to outside meetings to lecturo. His
time will be spent in the studio, working.

appealing performance of the melancholy "Vocalise" and also serves
well to convey the nostalgia of some
of the Auvergne songs. But there
are moments when one longs for
less languidness and more intensity
of expression and variety of tonal
coloring.
The graphic arts hold a very important place in
man's ability to communicate. The sensitivity of the
etching plate and the handling of the drawing and the
materials will be demonstrated by Mr. Blaustein. The
basic thought being this program is for the artist to
present his private world of creative thought; speaking for himself rather than through critic or curator,
considering the art of tho present and of the past as
it appeals to himself, and to extend his thoughts out
through the museum to its many and various kinds of
visitors.
The Albany Institute of History and Art is located
at 125 Washington Avenue.

The AMIA track meet to be held on May 23 will be
a true ^test of the appeal of track at State. The date —
Sunday afternoon, on the last weekend before exams —
is bound to be in conflict with numerous other outings
that usually fall on the last social weekend of the year.
A good turnout at this meet should, for all intents and
purposes, clearly show that students do want track
organized at State, and are willing to work for it. Also,
the entry of a Siena team will provide, unofficially,
of course, an air of intercollegiate competition to the
affair, faint though it may be.
The varsity golf team deserves special notice for
its fine triangular-match win over Plattsburgh and
Potsdam last Tuesday. This season the team has shown
unusual depth, as evidenced in Jake Prestopnik copping
the medalist honors in the Siena match with a fine
80 over an exceedingly wind-swept course. He played
in the no. six position for Albany.
The linksmen played in the two-year-old Capital City
Tournament yesterday against three other area teams.
Included in the tourney were RPI (probable favorite),
Union College, and Hudson Valley. The event was held
over a 7100 yard Saratoga Spa golf course that provided a real challenge for all the golfers entered.
Though the results were not known at time of publication, we feel certain that the Ped linksmen (defending champions) made a fine and respectable showing.
The varsity netmen are living up to pre-season expectations of a fine season, as they have showed consistent scoring depth throughout most of the year. The
netmen have a tough record to live up to (last year's
team was 9-2) and thus far they have done so. More
Importantly, there are no seniors on the team, thus
making the outlook for next season extremely optimistic.

After MYSKANIA's open hearing held last Monday
evening, student opinion from many quarters did r e flect disappointment with the 1965 edition of the Torch.
Therefore, when part of MYSKANIA's recommendation
dealt with a curtailment of Torch circulation for the
Summer Planning Conference, we could try to overlook
the very many excellent features of the yearbook and
concede the case-in-point in this instance.

Pro Council Rejects
Motion to Rescind
SCOPE Recognition
As Its last official act, Provisional Council held a special meeting Saturday morning to consider
rescinding recognition of SCOPE
because of alleged violation of its
organizational recognition statute.
A motion to that effect was defeated for lack of a majority. The
vote was 8 affirmative, 6 negative,
and 2 abstentions.
Discussion continued for the better part of an hour as members debated the legality of the SCOPE
buttons which have SUNYA printed
on them. The MYSKANIA rullngwas
cited which ruled that the buttons
did violate the recognition statute.
Chairman Joseph Mahay finally
defended SCOPE'S right to use the
buttons on the ground that the original statute was unjust, and SCOPE
had the right to refuse to obey it.
This comment encountered much
opposition from other Council members, who argued that student government must make every effort to
see that its ruling are enforced, or
organizations will disregard the
government completely.
Representatives Mahay, Lynne, sentative of each of the five comMurphy, Friedman, Summa, and mission areas from the Council and
Drexel have served on Provisional one member nf MYSKANIA. This

TIM ATWELL, ALIAS Surmise Room Inspector, reprimands a

We take issue with MYSKANIA for attempting to suggest the removal of Bill Colgan as Executive Editor of
the Torch, as well as the recommendation that all
salaried positions to SA budgetary organizations first
be approved by Central Council. No Central Council
member is adequately equipped to judge the qualifications of a salaried editor, if he has no conception of
what the job entails.
Censorship for all communications media, here
described as "editorial policy" is something communications has been long opposed to on this campus.
The function of a University is, among others, to
provide the fertile ground for thought and expression,
certainly the goals all students on this campus should
be striving for. When such a student group, elected to
reflect the campus as a whole, approaches the suggestion to impose censorship on student expression,
we can only vehemently oppose them on the grounds
that we, as an organ of student expression, are striving
for ever-widened horizons.
The recommendation of editorial censorship was
directed by MYSKANIA to the Communications Commission. We urge Communications Commission to
speak for the freedom of student expression on this
campus, and reject MYSKANIA's proposal.
