paign with an away contest with Central Connecticut
College. Although the results were not available at
publication time, using our brand new crystal ball
(the soccer season saw the demise of ourold one,) we
see the Danes in bad shape for this game, in particular, and for the entire season as well.
And it's a real shame, a damn shame. Last year's
squad registered what we called a "miracle season,"
winning 13 games against 9 setbacks with a team of
veritable pygmies and inexperienced players. This
year we looked forward to the addition of several key
sophs from last year's frosh team to an experienced
and far stronger state squad with an outstanding season in the offing. Needless to say, we're disappointed
at the turnabout of affairs.
This year's team boasts the addition of only two
sophs from last year's yearlings, only one transfer
student, who just became eligible, and that's it. The
squad, at full strength, has only 9 members, and over
a 21 game schedule, that's Just not enough. Injuries
have beset the team already, and as it is with injuries,
they usually multiply as the season progresses. We
suggest that "Doc" Sauers wear playing shorts under
his suit pants.
The Dane hoopsters are without last year's leading
scorer. Just recently they found out they would have
to do without the team's best playmaker and clutch
shooter. Only two frosh chose to play varsity ball this
season. The rationalization of this dilemma is basic—
in fact, it's academic. Our athletes are simply finding it too hard—or, tragically, too costly—to play
intercollegiate sports. We say sports because the
same is true in virtually every other sporton campus.
What's the solution? We certainly don't know, but
if we did, we'd hold out for the highest bid from
coaches around the country. It's an old story with a
new twist. Instead of having the good-looking football
player with a minus IQ, we're finding men capable of
doing college work incapable of fitting sports into their
academic life. Or, even sadder, those who unsuccessfully try to.
We are fully certain college academio standards
are not going to slacken. We are equally sure sports
do have a place in college. So all we can really do is
lament the situation, probe for a solution, and keep
our fingers crossed. And one thing more.
We can even better appreciate those gifted few
athletes who have succeeded in incorporating a sport
with their academic studies. We can better realize
how much sacrifice and hard work these men exhibit
in doing this. We can laud even louder the efforts of
our modern day athlete-scholar. What else can we
do?

Coach Hichard "Doc" Sauers' Albany State Great Dane basketball team swings
into action tomorrow at "home" for the first time when the cagers face Pratt
Institute at the Hudson Valley Community College gymnasium at 8:30 p.m. The
preliminary at 6:45 finds the Dane frosh pitted against Mohawk Valley Community
College from Utica. Free bus service leaving from all three quads will be provided
for both games.

The
varsity quintet
opened its 1966-7 season
last night against Central
Connecticut in an away contest.
The team Is not In top physical
shape and will not be as strong as
when the early prospects were forecast. Coach Sauers will have six
letter men returning from last year's
13-0 squad but will be minus two of
his top key players—high scoring
Mike Crocco who withdrew from
school, and Lohnle Morrison who
just recently left the team because
of academic reasons.
Top letterman returning Is Mike
Bloom, a 6-0 senior guard from Albany, who averaged 15.6 points a
game and Is a key man in this season's plans.
Other returning starters are Jim
Constantino, a 5*11' guard from Mohonasen High In Schenectady and
6'1" forward Larry Marcus from
Kingston High. Constantino, a senior, averaged nine points a game
last year, and Is the only person
ever to captain the team for two
consecutive seasons. Junior Marcus
averaged 11.8 points a game last
year and was the team's leading
rebounder. As of the moment he has
a bad leg and may only see limited
action In the Pratt game.
But the two leading prospects on
the team are not lettermen. They
are Scott Price, a 6'3" 200 pound
transfer from Butler who won ten
letters at Clifton Springs High, and
sophomore Rich Marglson, a smooth
and graceful 6'1" forward from
Cortland High, who last year led
the frosh In scoring and rebounding.

Potter Playoff Triumph
11th In Last 12 Years
by Glenn Saplr
Potter Club ran away with the
AMIA League I football championship when it soundly defeated Alpha
PI Alpha, 19-6, on Nov. 20. The
win for Potter clinched Its eleventh
title In twelve years,
Both Potter and APA went Into the
K»me with Identical 7-1 records,
their only losses coming at each
others hands. Potter's victory the
w« elt before forced the extra game
to decide the champion,
Th
e 'Irst big break of the game
w e n t t0
Potter when Mike Shelnvold
recovered an APA fumble on the
opening klckoff. Potter took quick
advantage of the fumble recovery
when quarterback Jim Curley ran
around end for the touchdown gallop.
Th
e point after attempt was unsuccessful, thus Potter held a six point
lead. APA's first drive took them
all the way to the Potter three-Inch
line where the tough EEP defense
dug in and prevented any further
advancement. The APA defense
proved Just as tough as Potter was
forced to punt from deep In their
own territory.
With APA In possession of the
ball again, their second drive took
them all the way In for the score.
The touchdown came when allstar
quarterback Ray Clanfrlni hit John
Hotallng for APA's only score of
the game. The tie was short lived
as the EEPs sustained a fifty yard
scoring drive, climaxed byCurley's
touchdown pass to Bob Savlckl, to
give Potter a six point lead at the
half.
Potter put the game on Ice when
allstar flankerback Ray McCloat
grabbed a fifty yard scoring bomb
and Al Babcock made good on the
extra point to clinch the win.
The drive will commence Monday and will continue until Christmas recess. Money will be collected
on the dinner lines and in Humanities 139 or in the newspaper office
In Van Rensselaer Hall.

Unfortunately my gratitude toward
the press does not equal my disappointment In the student body as

higher than last year's profit, but
for a university of this size it Is

A Modest Proposal
To the Editor:
As one views the State University
of New York at Albany as a whole,
one glaring contradiction is bound
to appear. This contradiction is the
fact that Albany seems In all ways
to be a growing and increasingly
dynamic Universith with a great
future in all fields, all but' sports
that is.
One need only imagine the situation ten years from now when
"State" will have an enrollment of
well over 10,000. There will finally
be a football team, maybe, and it
will be about as successful as R.P.I.
has boon In recent years. The socatlllto«r

mlliating -will
defeats
at the
handstuiof
Quinniplac. the basketball team will
still be taking on powers like Pratt
and Merrimack, and the baseball
team will still be losing.
And why will this deplorable situation exist? The answer is simple.
Colleges and universities under the
State University system do not give
athletic scholarships. Thus, although tuition Is low, few top athletes
with the requisite academic qualifications can be induced to attend a
school where they will have to pay
tuition and room and board, when
other Institutions of similar caliber
are offering them four years free
education.
But why you may ask should the
Albany
Student
state give preferential treatment to
athletes and Ignore others who have

'"
other fields? The question is indeed
a good one, and the best answer is
that athletes should not be given top
billing, but rather they should be included in a program that provides
numerous
"activities
scholarships."
For what better way Is there for
the State University system to e s tablish and insure the highest standards in all fields than to offer
scholarships to those high school
seniors who, besides meeting academic requirementsof the school,
have also displayed outstanding talents in student government, communications, music, art, athletics
or any of a number of other similar
fields.
The complications implied by such
a proposal are many, but without its
implementation, our sports will r e main second rate, and although we
would, probably remain even fn the
other flei<ts <sLm:c no one e l s e c o n s i d e r s them either) the advantages
of seizing the initiative would no
doubt be great.

Open Library Earlu
T o m e Editor:

Two dozen SUNYA students stood
in 28 degree weather Monday morning waiting for the University library
to open at 8:00 a.m.
Would it not be possible to allow
students in the heated area between
the outer and inner doors of the
library, during this cold period?
A guard maintained by the University is on duty at this time who
would be able to see that students
remained In the lobby until the library staff was ready to open.
Christine Root
At the Dec. .1 meeting of the Psychology Club thevalidity of the Residence Hall Evaluation Form p r e sently filled by each Resident Assistant on each student under his jurisdiction was questioned.
We feel that as the form now exists it is highly
subjective in its evaluation, that the topics under
which students are evaluated are highly nebulous,
and that the form should therefore be re-evaluated.
For example, exactly how qualified is a Resident
Assistant to evaluate a student's "Emotional Balance and Maturity?" Even more than this how qualified are they to categorize the student's balance
and maturity as "above" or "below" that of the
" a v e r a g e " student?
The form seems to contain obvious flaws in logic,
and we wonder exactly how a student's "reaction to
criticism" is used as a balance in deciding his
"independence."
It is hard to believe that an R.A. can obtain an
adequate picture of a student's overall study habits,
especially in view of the fact that suite living is
much more isolatory than the old form of corridor
living. With suite living the student, tucked away into
his self-sufficient suite, has a reduced exposure to
his R.A. who is also tucked away somewhere.
In our opinion, this reduced contact does not lend
itself to particularly thorough evaluations of a student's ability to "lead o t h e r s , " or in his "sense of
responsibility."
Besides a re-evaluation of the form, preferably
with the opinion of a student committee, we feel two
other improvements could be made upon this system.
First, in view of the fact that the Evaluation Sheet
is a highly arbitrary evaluation made by one or two
individuals, each student should be able to view this
evaluation upon request, especially as this evaluation
is kept in the permanent residence file.
We feel this is an extremely poor system at best
and would like to see it abolished entirely.
Problems Can Be Solved
A problem solving service is being offered to students through the newly formed Getting Through College Clinic. This service could be beneficial with the
.presence of the correct attitude of hoth those with
the problem and the problem solvers.
The present plan of the group necessitate the filling
out of a questionnaire to explain the problem. The
solution may then be presented in the form of a personal contact or an impersonal reply. A group discussion of a specific problem may eventually result
when a prevalent nature is found among problems.
The organizers of the Clinic are still formulating
theories and we hope their plans remain flexible. Our
idea is that a problem solving clinic would be useful
if open meetings were held in which students could
air their problems.
A problem might not seem serious enough to warrant the filing of a questionnaire and just realizing
what problems others have might offer some consolation. We realize the advantages of the questionnaire
but fear that it might prove discouraging and cause
another group to get bogged down in paper work.

Making the right play defensives
can ofte.i be the hardest part of
bildge. In today's hand cover both
the West and the South hands and
play your own defense. South has
arrived at four spades after opening
one spade and being raised to two
spades by his partner.
Your partner leads the king of
clubs and continues with the ace on
which you play the high-low s e quence of the eight and the four
denoting a doubleton club.
South drops the Queen and the
nine of clubs. Your partner now leads
the ten of clubs which is a denial
of holding the Jack. Obviously South
holds the Jack so which card do you
play from your hand?
If you trumped the club trick you
might as well concede the rest of
the tricks to your opponents, Declarer will win your diamond return
In his hand, play a heart to dummy's
king, finesse the Jack of spades, and
return to dummy with U>e ace of
hearts to take another trump finesse.
The only tricks you take are two
clubs and a club ruff. However, notice what happened If you pitched a
heart on the third club. Declarer
wins the club trick In his hand and
plays a heart to dummy to take the
trump finosse.
When he leads a second heart to
dummy, you trumph and still have
to collect the spade king for setting
trick. It pays to think on defense.

For Ambassador
Our foreign policy became one of
containment of Communism. Olson
also stated that Communist China
poses a serious threat, more so
than the Soviet Union.
Olson offered the opinion that the
world is experiencing a "revolution of rising expectation" from
the nations of Asia, Africa, and
Latin America. They want the material successes that the United States
and Western Europe have obtained.
Saulter talked of the fcotHer war"

cities are run-down; there are no
sanitation facilities. There is a
complete lack of professional
people, as well as white-collar
workers.
Boren gave an explanation of what
the Alliance for Progress is doing.
Past programs, he said, trained
tile people of Latin American In
education, public administration,
and health, but did not develop the
countries' own institutions to carry
on the work.
The Alliance, however, assists
the country In producing its own
institutions, while encouraging the
countries to collect Its own taxes.
Boren also stated that there is a
private program in the Alliance,
one In which a state in the United
States becomes a partner with a
region In Latin America. This program is of mutual benefit; the state
gives aid an technical know-how,
the Latin American region sends
teachers to helps with the language
program of the state's schools.
Question Period
In the question period, Olson
stated that a review is taking place

Plans are being made by Marsha
Schonblom and SyZachar, co-chairmen of the annual Christmas Sing, to
broadcast this year's Sing over
closed circuit television in Hawley
Library.
This year's Sing will be held at
7:00 p.m. on December 18, and will
be followed by a cocoa hour held ln
the Dutch Quad Dining Room..
Such a broadcast would allow 500
people to view the live concert who
would not ordinarily be able to do so
because of the crowded conditions
of Page Hall.
Although the concert is open to
all, by the time all the members of
the various performing groups are
seated there is little room left for
many spectators.
The idea is to allow as many students as possible into Page, on a
first-come, first-served basis, and
then begin seating students in Hawley.
Better View
Technically speaking the students
seated in Hawley should be afforded
a better view than, those in Page.
The broadcasting will be done
under the direction of Dr. Charles
Rice, of the University's television
department.
Special lighting arrangements are
being handled under the supervision
of Diane Somerville and Alex Krakower; set design is proceeding under the directorship of Betsy Mickel.
The Booketeria (Textbook area) will close*
on Thursday, Dec. 22,1966
Others Considered
In deciding to televise the Sing
various other auditoriums were considered, among these the Philip Livingston Junior High School and the
New Scotland Avenue Armory.
However the school was already
booked, and the acoustics of the
Armory proved too poor, besides
the fact that Hawley was the most
accessible.

President Evan R. Collins announced at the President's Conference Monday that a team of experts
ln different fields from the State
Education Department will be on

next week.
The purpose of this visit is to

year in which a program was offered, the courses were examined
and then registered without any time
limit.
The State Education Department
is now re-examining the old programs as well as the new in a systematic and comprehensive examination.

conference concerned the R. A. evaluation form that was discussed by
the Psych Club Dec. 1. The Presprize in the Speech One contest and Gerald Goes is congratulated for [dent commented that he had cited
