Dana Booters Win Opener,
2-1 Victory Over Brooklyn
Editor
by Dune Nixon
The school y«ir has Just begun, yet the Albany State
sports program has swung Into high gear. There Is no
question that the entire program is bigger and better
than ever before In the history of this university. All the
additions to the '67-68 sports year make It a wonder that
the too often heard general attitude of the student body
Is that the University's progress In its athletic program
lags far behind its advancement in academics.
This year, for the first time, swimming will be added
to the intercollegiate athletic program. The schedule, designed for both men and women, will be carried out on a
club basis. In charge of the men's swimming program is
Mr. Brian V. Kelly who did his doctoral work at Indiana
University, the school generally recognized as the collegiate swimming power of the nation.' The pool will be
located in the new.gym, scheduled to be ready October 15.
Some of the other features of the new gym which might be
considered "progress" when compared to Page which
reminded one of an armpit more than a gymnasium are a
three court length basketball floor, a swimming pool, a
large wrestling room, and for the ladies, a mirror lined
modern dance room. These are Just a few of the several
modern Improvements the gym has to offer. Convenience
being another point worth mentioning — Whether you
consider the gym to be in Albany, Guilderland, or
Colonic, the fact remains it's only minutes from the new
quads.
Thanks to the new gym, tournaments will be coming to
our own front door. The formal dedication of the gym will
be highlighted by consecutive basketball doubleheaders on
December 1 and 2. The teams involved are new to the
SUNYA hoop schedule and no doubt provide big time competition. The annual four team Capital City Basketball
Tournament will be played in the new gym, taking the
tournament away from its previous site, Siena's Gibbons
Hall.. That in itself is a moral victory.
As Is swimming, track will go intercollegiate on a club
basis this year. R.Keith Munsey, a legend in his own time
at Albany, will be handling track while another coach will
be handling only the field events. Whereas the track club
did perform last year, it is the maiden season for the
field competitors. Since both swimming and track are
being run on a club basis, freshman and transfers are
eligible to compete.
BROOKLYN First half goals by inside right Getachew Habteh-Ylmer and
outside left Gary Swartout powered The Albany State soccer squad to a 2-1
win over Brooklyn College on Saturday. The victory got the Joe Garcia coached
booters off on the right loot, and established a pattern which may become quite
common as the season progresses.
This pattern Consists of a rugged and stringent defense headed by senior fullbacks Tim Jursak and Joe LaReau, and centered around the play of goalie
Jerry Leggleri, and an offense of sudden bursts based on the speed and scoring
power of Habteh-Ylmer, Swartout, and forwards Phil Kahn, Jay Watrous and
Dennis Jersey. But the emphasis on defense i s highlighted by the fact that the
co-captains Jursak and Leggieri are both playing primarily defensive positions.
The Great Danes were
first on the scoreboard
in the Brooklyn encounter, scoring when, at 7:35
of the first period, Habteh-Ylmer took a pass
from Kahn and drove it
off the goalie's hands and
Into the nets.
Swartout upped the
count to 2-0, when at 17:55
of the second period he
took a pass trom Habteh-Ylmer
and fired the ball past the goalie.
Coach Garcia started to substitute In the second half, and
late in the third period Brooklyn scored to close the gap to
2-1, but the Great Danes tight
encd their defense, and a scoreless fourth quarter resulted In
the win.
Jerry Leggierl's 12 saves and
the excellent play of the whole
fullback line of Jursak, La Reau,
John Compeau and Roger Saul
were the game's most promising developments.
The Great Danes opened their
home schedule on Wednesday
when they hosted the Red Dragons of Oneonta In a game which
unfortunately came just after
our deadline and thus can not be
reported here.
Tomorrow the booters travel
to Bridgeport tor a return engagement with this East Coast
soccer power. Last year the
Great Danes fell to them by a
4-0 count. ~
In winning the meet, Paul Roy
recorded a time of 21.08 and received the runner of the meet
award for his outstanclng performance. Roy, only t sophomore, recorded an Impressive
victory In his first varsity meet.
Mike Attwell finished second
with a time of 21.19 followed by
five Coast Guard runners who
crossed the finish line In a space
of 24 seconds. Joe Keating and

Munsey, suffered its first loss Saturday as they were edged by the Coast Guard
Academy, 25-32. This loss was the first time that the harriers have ever lost
their first meet of the year. Despite the setback, however, Munsey was not discouraged as he received outstanding performances from sophomore Paul Roy of
Fulton and Mike Attwell a junior from Herkimer as they placed first and second
respectively. In addition to these two, senior Joe Keating and Junior Paul Breslin

Tonight Central Council Is expecting to hear the resignation
of William T. Cleveland as President of Central Council. It was
announced by Jeffery Mlshkln,
vice president of Student Assocltatlon, at last week's meeting
that Cleveland had not yet time
to write his resignation, but
that he will present It before
the next meeting.
If the resignation is made out,
It will be up to Central Council
to act upon it. Cleveland will
be the first president of Central
council to leave office In this
manner, If he does resign.
In the absence of Cleveland,
Mlshkln presided In the chairman's seat last meeting. Under
the rules of Central Council Mlshkln would become president immediately at the acceptance of
the resignation.
The resignation has been rumored since the beginning of
school. At first the rumor
stated that the resignation would
be announced at the Convocation
ceremonies. When that rumor
didn't materallze another popped
up. The second rumor was to
the effect that the resignation
would be presented at the next
Central Council meeting. It was
at this meeting that Mlshkln made
the announcement.
If Cleveland does leave his
post as President of Central
Council he does not have to leave
his seat on the council. Cleveland is one of the two members
of council from Community Programming Commission the oUier
representative is James Winslow.
If Mlshkln does ascend to the
presidency the chair of vice
president will be left vacant.
Presumably an election will be
held for the vice presidency as
soon as it is vacated, If it Is
vacated.
The council consists of 26
members at the present. Aside
from Cleveland only Mlshkln and
Mr. Niel Brown, director of Student Activities have had at least
a year of experience on the council. A handful of others have
been council members for a sem-
ester. The majority of members
are sitting on Central Council
for the first time.
At
the present time the
members are In a'state of limbo'.'
They are not sure who will lead
council and conduct the business
of the Student Association.
According
to James Kahn,
council member, Cleveland is
causing problems because he
Isn't acting as president and he
hasn't resigned as of yet. The
constitution states that the vice
president can take over the duties
of the president at the top executive's request.
In hopes of eliminating the
problems caused by past elections Central council passed a
new election bill last year. Appointed to be chairman of Election Committee was Douglas Upturn. Upham, presently a graduate student, was a representative
on Central Council from Communications Commission during
the last two years.
The Central Council meeting
is open to the public. If any
student or other person wishes he may come to the meeting tonight. The session is to
be called to order at 7:30 In
Humanities 123. It has been hoped by members of Central Council that the student body will
take a greater Interest In the affairs of the government.

Representatives Removed:
Unfulfilled Residence
Two members were removed
from their seats on Central
Council last Thursday night because they no longer fulfill the
residence requirements. Reps.
Victor Looper and Craig T.
Springer were elected to represent State Quad last spring.
Looper lives at Dutch Quad, and
Springer Is an Alumni Quad.
Looper was moved by the University from State Quad to his
president residence In Stuyvesant
Tower. Springer took a Residence
Assistance at Alumni Quad. Both
students thought that they would
be living at State when they ran
for the office last May.
The rational behind the expulsion is stated In Article 2
suction 2 c of the Constitution
of tin; Student Association of the

'Student Association shall elect
members to Central Council In
the ratio of four hundred to one,

During the Last Meeting a bill
was made to create two special
at-large seats on the council.
One for Looper and the other
for Springer. After extended discussion the council defeated the
measure.
The council also approved an
expenditure of $250 to pay for

Wedow Exhibit
On Display Now
At Albany Inst.
The Albany Institute of History
and Art Is honoring the memory
of the late Clinton, New York
sculptor, Rudy Wedow, by a retrospective
exhibition which
opens on Tuesday, October 3.
Born In BuTralo, Wedow studied
at the Albright Art Gallery School
of Fine Arts, the BerkshireSummer School, Syracuse University,
and with numerous artists such
as Emmy Zweybruck of Vienna
and John Tatschl of New Mexico.
The exhibit consists of about
40 sculptures spanning the 30
years prior to his death at the
age of 52 In 1965.
Two directions or styles seem
to characterize the artist's work:
a fascination with plants, seeds,
and pods leading to strongly decorative metal interpretations of
these forms worked In welded and
brazed steel, bronze, and copper.
Some are small enough for
table display while others are outdoor pieces suitable for gardens
or backyards. In this direction,
the metal bugs are actual jewelry
frequently worn on coats and
sweaters.
Wedow also collected metal
scraps and salvaged parts from
junk yards. These were fashioned
Into sculptures sometimes abstract but usually based on
recognizable subjects.
Albanians lending to the ex.
hlblt Include Mrs. John Coggeshall, Mr. and Mrs. Hyman Novlotzky, and Mrs. David E.

Albany Bus Strike
First Since 1946
by Ellis Pearson
Albany's striking bus drivers
and mechanics are concerned
with the most basic labormanagement Issue there is: they
want more money.
Strikers on the picket line at
the United Traction Company's
Quail Street Garage did not feel
any animosity towards the company; they pointed out that the
union had not called a strike
since 1946. They felt, however,
that $2.50 per hour wage they had
received before the strike was
not sufficient; one striker pointed
down the street toward Frelhofer's Bakery, and said "girls
there get as much as $3.00 an
hour, and they don't have to pilot
a bus around."
The pickets, members of division 1321, Amalgamated transit
Employees Association, claimed
to be "100 per cent behind the
union," and said that they would
accept the union's decision on a
settlement. Strikers will receive
about $25 a week, starting tomorrow, from the union's strike
fund. Members are falling back
on their savings; one picket said,
"It's tough to get an outside job;
nobody will hire you when they
known you'll quit and go back to
the bus company when the strike
Is over."
The workers don't anticipate
a long strike, but are unwilling to
estimate Its probable length.
Several drivers expressed hope
that the wage Issue might be
resolved — and that they might
be back behind the wheel — after
the October 2 meeting between the
union and management.
During the strike the University has managed to continue
to transport students even though
United Traction Company buses
are used. The University has four
buses of Its own which began the
route earlier In the hour and
were spread out.
Independent buses have also
been rented by the University
temporarily. Food Service and
other aspects of the University
affected by the strike have cooperated to try to make things
as easy as possible during Its
transportation problem.

1967 Summer ASP. Harold Lynne,

Lynne hoped to try several

Both architects called tho concept of space beautiful. They
described the predominating
white and gold of this campus
its being peculiar to Edward

the architecture also brought
praise from them.
The main criticism expressed
by the young professors was that

Two University fraternities,
Phi Hula Sigma and Upsllon Phi
Sigma, who were originally
scheduled to be placed in the
State Squad, were assigned to
Sluyvesanl Tower when they returned this year. The reason for
Hie change, according lo William

of residences, was due to an Increase in Ihe percentage of female students requiring on-cainpus housing.
Two halls In Ihe State Cjuud,

were converted towomen's halls.
Stuyvesuut Tower was previously reserved for transfer students.
These transfer students were distributed In other halls.

AMERICAN

SOCIETY
Reverend Small admits that
women view sex differently than
men do. "1'or the woman the sex
act is n symbol of a relationship." The question was asked
if that relationship, however, be
bigger and deeper In the future?
To clarify his point, the Reverend mentioned a popular song
illustrating this "Will You Still
Love Me Tomorrow," attitude.
"Yes," Reverend Small said,
"love does make It right, but
first make sure It Is love. The
commitment, body and soul and
all; a deep genuine and lasting
relationship — thal'swhat makes
it right."
Morality In reference to a sexual act is no different from other acts. Moral acts In all fields,
feels Dr. Llttlefleld, Involves a
"recognition of responsibility."
"In shaking hands you must
be responsible for your gestures
whether you feel them or not."
So II is with the sex act.
In agreement with Reverend
Small, Llttlefleld said thai "Sex
must grow Into a deep and genuine relationship and it will not
last unless it keeps growing and
changing. II Is important for people to feel free to accept Ihe responsibility for this kind of relationship and take the consequences" should it not work out.
In the question and answer
period Llttlefleld reiterated his
Idea that "no feeling lasts forever In reference to love." This,
however, is not to say that love
can't last, but that the same feelings can't test. "Feelings are
mobile."
Reverend Small, rather In opposition to Dr. Llttlefleld, said
that, "a refusal to make a commitment is tantamount to anulllng Ihe deep relationship'' he had
talked about previously. The high
rate of divorce, he pointed oul,
however, Illustrates that people do grow apart and feelings
do change. Divorces come about,
believes the Reverend, where
people thought they were.in love
and really weren't.
"It is easy for young people
to be disturbed about statistics"
having to do with divorce rates.
"But there are the rich marriages of very many people."
Llttlefleld admitted that "it
is very hard for the coed now.
The pressure Is on to put-out.
The pill and all kinds of technology makes It easier to putout. But there is damage done
(lo herself) when she does, except when she has lhal kind of
relationship" Involving a deep
and genuine love.
Father Paul Smith summed up
the lecture by saying that the
friendships we make here at the
University will be brought into
our future relationships and enhance thein.
Dr. Llttlefleld feels there are
different kinds of commitments;
that the New Morality has resulted from the changes In phys-

We feel that marijuana should be lega l i z e d on the grounds of the known medi c a l evidence and for the r i g h t s of an

Joint Power
Although students at the University c o m plain about the lack of protest and action in truly " l i b e r a l " v e i n s , there s e e m s
to be a pitiful lack of a w a r e n e s s of how
liberal s o m e of our standards a r e with
r e s p e c t to other u n i v e r s i t i e s .
A 'Joint Statement on Rights and F r e e d o m s of Students' unanimously p a s s e d
this s u m m e r at the National Student A s sociation (NSA) C o n g r e s s c a l l e d for student control of chartering and financing
of student organizations and a c t i v i t i e s ;
the right to e s t a b l i s h dormitory, social
and housing r u l e s , and "Authority over
disciplinary actions resulting from violations of student r e g u l a t i o n s . "
Anyone
informed about our p o l i c i e s
will r e a l i z e that all these demands a r e
already part of students rights in our
University policy. We already have a
great deal of what other s c h o o l s must
now r e s o l v e and fight to have.
The second area of the resolution deals
with Joint control of students with the administration and faculty. The NSA r e s o l u tion favored joint control in a r e a s of
a d m i s s i o n , c o u r s e requirements, and
grading p o l i c i e s ; In the hiring and firing
of the faculty; and in determining college s e r v i c e s .
At present we do not have these things
at the University, and these a r e going to
be the i s s u e s for an aware student to

L a s t March
Last Spring, a bus of University students and numerous carloads carried an Albany State
contingent to the April 10th
March. Participants have estimated the Albany representation
by Don Gcnnett
At the first meeting of the
Interfraternlty
Council (IF'C),
Wednesday, Sept. 27, a resolution to change the established
rush procedure was introduced
and discussed. The main changes
in procedure would be the elimination of fall and Informal rushes; upperclassmen would rush
from the first day of the fall
m semester until bids came out In
the spring; and Freshmen could
not rush until the spring semester.

Further Demonstrations
un Sunday, October 22nd, further demonstrations shall continue before the Pentagon. These
continue Into Monday as direct
action people continue to attempt
disruption techniques.
Prof. Sidney Peck, Co-Chalrman of the National Mobilization
Committee which Is planning the
march writes as follows In
answer to why It is felt that direct action techniques are necessary at this1 time:
"Because marches, vigils, letter writing and electoral activities have not been enough. Johnson and Co. have been escalating their barbarous war and they
are now bombing in the center of
Hanoi and Haiphong. Many Americans feel that more has to be
done. If the U.S. military will
not get out of Vietnam, then
many people with their own bodies will disrupt the war machine." (Vol. 2 - No. 2 Moblllzer Mag. of the National Mobilization Comm.)
The Albany contingent has several volunteers who shall risk
certain arrest by joining the
blockade of the Pentagon. The
rest of the March rally will be
held far enough away from the
building to differenciate between
marchers and direct action people.

This October's Mobilization Is
In many ways similar to the April
March, but It also goes further
In Its aims. The Mobilization will
Include a major march and rally.
The March will originate at
two points: the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial.
They will being tomarchtowards
the Pentagon at 11 a.m., and
shall converge by 2:30 p.m. In
the Pentagon South parking lot.
A rally will follow.
Unlike the April 15 March, however, the protest shall not end
with this rally, but shall continue as an estimated 10,000 direct action marchers shall then
attempt to disrupt the Pentagon
war machine by blocking entrances and exits to the building, and
by entering and sitting down In
building rooms and corridors.
Information Desk
An Information desk has been
organized In the lobby of the Student Center by university students. All students expecting to
attend the march are being asked to register with this desk.
Anyone Interested In bus transportation to and from Washington at reduced charter rates
($11.50 round trip) are asked
to inquire at the desk, as well
&as those Interested In establishing car pools, either as drivers
or as passengers.
The desk is being operated
under the sponsorship of two Independent campus organizations:
Freedom Council and the TrlClty Student Alliance. These
groups are composed of interested SUNYA students and have no
outside affiliations.
The Student Mobilization Committee, supplying their literature, is a national student
coalition organized last April
to help coordinate student participation In the April Mobilizat i o n s in New York and around the
"country.
COMMUNICATIONS
To the Editor:
The first Issue of the "new"
ASP was Impressive in several
ways. As a long-time managing
editor and a former co-editorin-chief of Albany State's student
paper, I want to congratulate the
editor and her staff.
The new printer and the new
arrangements are obviously an
Improvement. The new banner
with the gray background is Impressive.
The move from twice a week
Is hopefully a temporary change.
The amount of solid news and
the good use of both features and
editorials was very Interesting.
While the emphasis was maintained on the Students, news of
the faculty and news from outside
the University which has Impact
on Its community was Included—
very good.
The arts page Is again a standout. The Inclusion of a calendar
is useful.
One last compliment—the
white on black headlines on the
editorials are a success In as
much as they help make that
page appear different from the
ALBANY STUDENT PRESS
£
The advocates of this proposal
believe that It would be a better
system, and would save the fraternities money by eliminating
the fall rush. They also believe
that it would help transfers to
become better acquainted with
all fraternities before they are
forced to make their final declslon, and would place all the
fraternities on a more equal
basis during rush periods.
If the rush were to continue
for the greater part of two semesters, It only stands to reason that the fraternities would
become
more
competitive.
Rush parties and open houses
would become something like an
arms race, with each fraternity
trying to Impress prospective
members. The larger fraternlties would be aUe to ovrralunJw

larger, and the smaller fraternities would become smaller.
Those In favor of the proposal also believe that the transfer student should have a longer
time to make a decision. What
of the second semester freshman,
however? He Is still limited tothe
same four-week period to make
his choice. If rushing has been
conducted according to the IFC
Constitution,
the
freshmen
should know little or nothing
about the fraternities. Rather
than wait a full year to decide on
which fraternity would be best
for him, the rushee would probably choose the fraternity which
he was most sure of receiving
a bid from. This Is the point
which I feel that I am almost
qualified to make. Rather than
rush, I felt It would be more
worthwhile to wait a semester
to decide between fraternities.
Had I thought that I would have
had to wait a full year, however,
I probably would have rushed
merely to avoid the long wait.
by Guest Writer M. Jay Rosenberg
A college planned by students:
that was the goal of Chancellor
Samuel Gould of the State University of New York when he
authorized five - hundred dollar
grants for twelve undergraduates
in the State University system for
spending three weeks in June at
the new State University College
at Old Westbury, Long Island.
After submitting essays on our
ideas for a new college, Barbara Welnsteln and I were chosen by the staff at Old Westbury
to represent SUNY Albany in this
undertaking.
Draw on Experience
From the very beginning we
were told that we were here to
give the Old Westbury staff an
idea of what a modern day college should be like; that we were
only to draw on our own unfortunate experiences at our home
schools. Being from Albany, Barbara and I had a lot to go on.
I was on the Informal group
that was involved with forming
a viable student government for
this college that Is not to open
until September 1968. From the
beginning I held to the Idea that
Old Westbury should not have any
form of student government at
all unless It can be very different and more In keeping with this
generation than the type of governments we are used to. The
Idea of the kind of non-government
we have here (as the Old Westbury staff had been reading the
ASP they knew my tales of 10
per cent voter turnouts and corruption In high places were substantially true) thrilled everyone.
We came to very few conclusions
on the all-Important question of
student government but in other areas things were different.. .
Westbury President Prominent
The President of the college
at Old Westbury, Harris Wofford, was President Kennedy's
civil rights assistant and later
In 1961-4 was director of the
Peace Corps along with Sargent
Shrlver and Bill Moyers. I
couldn't overestimate the liberalism and openmindedness of
Harris.
He listened seriously and with
consideration to even our most
unrealistic suggestions. Most of
our discussion eventually turned
to the "problems" of sex, drugs
and Viet Nam. We were all against
University Rep. to Westbury
the war which prompted the reporter from NEWSDAY to comment that we wouldn't have much
dialogue at Old Westbury if aU
the students were as "left" as
we supposedly were. As regards
drugs, we were pretty much united In favor of Old Westbury adopting some sort of liberal policy
towards the problem.
Each of the twelve of us had
our own area to Investigate and
to recommend proposals on.
For the three weeks we went
through a crash program highlighted by open seminars run by
various educators and other
knowledgeable persons of a particular field.
We wanted to learn about drugs
and LSD so Harris had Alan
Watts come down. To talk about
politics and the role of the student, we had BUI Moyers, publisher of NEWSDAY and President Johnson's former press
secretary sit on the floor with
us and we unsuccessfully tried
to convince him to tell us what
Lyndon Is really like.
No Requirements
We had to end the type of college education where one required step follows another until
graduation. We were quite certain that we don't want any rerequirements at Old Westbury;
but did we want any form of
structured courses?
One thing we did decide was
that the Old Westbury student
would be advised to spend a
semester or a year working for
credit In VISTA, or with the
poor In New York's ghetto or
on a kibbutz in Israel. In this
way the student would be able
to relate his college learning
to the real world.
"There probably will not be any
semblance of the traditional grading system at Old Westbury. The
grade a student receives will
probably be decided by the student himself In a talk with the
professor.
There may be no
grades at all. There will be student-faculty committees for the
hiring of new professors, to control the FSA and regulate the
curriculum.
Initiates Social Action
The roln that we see fnr riw
Westbury Is as an Initiator of
social action. It Is expected that
Old Westbury will be recognised
as the most progressive college
Oteri Marijuana
In the United States.
On the last day of the "workshop" Chancellor Gould flew
down from Albany to see what
we had accomplished. We sat
him down in a conference room
and played a tape for him that
we had been preparing since the
night before. The tape consisted
of Dylan, the Beatles and lots of
us talking about the way we saw
things. It ended with Dylan singing: "Something Is happening
here but you don't know what it
Is, do you Mr. Jones."
Gould did not seem too Impressed or as one girl put it:
"I felt he sat there wondering — is this how I spent $6,500."
The "Westbury Experiment"
has Just begun. The school will
open with 150 students next September; eventually it will have
an enrollment of five thousand.
The summer workshop will convene in December. It will be Interesting to see what we shall
all say after another semester
at our home schools.
Our New Campus
What shall I say? I ..
them some more about
campus and the quality of soma
of our faculty. Even Gould In
talking about his State University refers to Blnghamton's established excellence, Stony Brook
as a new MIT, UB as the east's
Berkeley, and Albany's superb
campus.
We hear lots of talk that SUNYA
Is a top rated university and I
am sure it Is. The problem here
Is not the administration and it
Is not the faculty. Our trouble
Is that the administration of Albany State Is more liberal than
the student body.
And the student leaders seem
anxious only to be elected and
then completely cop out. OurStudent Association, Myskanla and
Central Council are run by the
kind of Individual who would fit
In rather well as well-paid lackeys In the Albany Democratic
Machine. The bookstore Is run
like a company store; we have no
alternative but to shop there.
Things must change here. After
my experience at Old Westbury
I am convinced that the student
can make a difference. That Is
the relevance of Old Westbury's
experiment — we must begin to
try.

IFG to Present
'Throne of Blood9
Aklra Kurowawa's violent masterpiece, "Throne of Blood,"
Is this week's IFG presentation,
to be shown tomorrow night in
Draper 349;
Kurosawa's reputation is one
of the highest among contemporary film-makers, and when one
thinks of Japanese cinema, it Is
usually a Kurosawa picture that
comes to mind.
Astonishingly versatile, he has
created a body of work of great
brilliance: "Rashomon," "Seven
Samurai," "Yojlmbo," "High
and Low," and "Iklru" fto be
shown next semester by IFG).
His directorial style Is vigorour, stark, and brimming with
an explosive force that propels
the film from shot to shot with
growing tension.
"Throne of Blood" Is an adaptation of the story of "Macbeth,"
and has been called the finest
Shakespearian adaptation ever
filmed. It transplants the story
to feudal Japan, in which a simple
warlord, goaded on by his wife
and his own. ambition, kills the
reigning lord;
Within this framwork, Kurosawa uses every means at his
disposal to evoke an atmosphere
of dread and terror: swirling fogs, nightmarish action,
sounds of rain and horses'
hooves plunging through the night.
The Japanese Macbeth Is played by Toshlro Mlfune, who gives
a
performance of tingling
ferocity. Kurosawa builds to a
pitch of Intense excitement culminating in the final slashing
battle scenes.
"Throne of Blood" will be
shown In Draper 349 at 7:00
and 9:15. Admission is $.25 with
student tax, $.40 without.
NOTE: Carl Theodore Dreyer's silent film masterpiece
"The Passion of Joan of Arc,"
considered one o( the all-time
great films, will be shown at
7:00 Tuesday In Draper 349.
Anyone who Is taking the "Introduction to the cinema"

Janice Ian and the Buffalo Springfield entertained an over-flow audience In the Campus Center Ballroom on Friday, September 29. The concert, delayed an hour and a- half due to the late
arrival of the performers was good but not as ,
good as was hoped for.
Janice Ian, who started the three and a half
hour concert Is, at least as far as she communicated with the audience, a protest singer.
From "Society's Child" to "Younger Generation Blues," she complains of the evils that
parents, society, and the status quo can heap
upon a poor Innocent girl. At the end of a fortyfive minute set one may wish that she change
the topic. At sixteen she Is quite talented for
her age, but sixteen is rather young when you
are singing to a college audience. The critic
feels that she Just has to live a bit longer.

Application Entry Form:
About 90 minutes late, a little out of tune,
and just a little bit too loud, the Buffalo-Springfield began tholr half of last Friday nlte's programs. Despite the bad start and an all too typically restless audience, the new rock group from
the coast showed their versatility in a show which
varied from country-western to acid. The group,
consisting of two Americans, and three Canadians,
recently returned from a TV show In Rhode Island,
and is shortly returning to LA where they live.
The Buffalo Springfield, despite their seemingly
unkempt appearances, Is in reality a group of sound
capable performers. Although they have been called psychedelic, they stoutly deny It. When asked
how they liked the east coast the groupgave a rather surprising answer. Yes, they did like It. San
Francisco, one of them volunteered, or at least
the Malght-Ashbury section Is a place where
people give up their very purpose of existence,
surrender their highest ideals, for drugs. Asked
where their music Is at they answered, "Down, .iairs, that's where the music is at."

At first appearance, Janice seems a bright
and happy young girl who has somehow succeeded where other older and more experienced performers have failed; and In truth, that Is exactly what she is. Despite the pain one hears in
her songs, very little of this has occurred to
her. She freely admits that her parents are wonderful people who have never hindered, and In
fact have promoted, her success as a folkslnger. This success Is due primarily to three factors; the eflorts of WOR KM, the laudatory praise
given by Leonard Bernstein, and a New Orleans
disk Jockey whose home was burned down because he played "Society's Child."

Questions on Planning
Last weekend's BuffaloSprlngfield, Janice Ian concert brought
up many questions on the planning
of our University Concerts. I
think most people who saw the
Buffalo Springfield Friday night
left the Ballroom disappointed,
through no fault of the group.
Much of this disappointment was
due to the two hours' delay of
the performance.
The group was forced to play
without being able to adjust their
equipment to the acoustic conditions of the ballroom. These
conditions are quite different
from what the group Is used to.
Another pet gripe of mine Is that
the audience shouldn't be forced
to sit In Jackets and ties through
a rock concertSpontaneity Out
This cuts out any spontaneity
and stifles
the audience's response, an Integral part of any
pop event. The group seemed
stilted, like a good recording,
but not as though they were performing a live concert. However, the same thing could be
said for the audience.
Even so, the group managed a
couple of highlights In their
second show, the first being their
biggest hit, FOR WHAT IT'S
WORTH, which I believe they'll
never equal with any future recording. The song has everything, tremendous lyrics, and a
good, catchy, but not overly commercial sound.
It was a sure thing when It
came out last year. Buffalo
Springfield finished with their
second single, BLUEBIRD, This
song made It regionally, but not
In this area. In this song, an
extended version showing off
their instrumental abilities In,
as they put It, "West Coast
freakout music."
High lor Evening
They hit a high for the evening, which again pointed to the
lack of 'Hspon.s What they needed In t.-'der U Impress « r
audience was an Aval™. <i HImore l ,j]roon'>"!io<;t<ai.c. '"maky

merslon we would have dug them.
Janls Ian, on the other hand,
was unbelleveably Impressive.
She was announced, and out she
came,
a long-haired, sixteenyear-old, who, as soon as she
opened her mouth captivated the
audience
with
her poise,
assurance, and bitterness.
She's Intelligent beyond her
years, and some of her Jokes and
songs went over the heads of our
so-called s ohistlcated audience.
At this, she laughed even louder
than we did. Physically, Janls
Ian Is still a girl, but musically
and lyrically, she Is a full grown
woman.
Recurring Theme
It's frightening because her
recurring theme Is youth growing up too fast, not by their own
will, but by that of their grownups. Her songs cover prostitution, adultery, marijuana, clgaretts, parents, and the Great
Society; all harshly, Ironically,
and sarcastically. Her musical
ability Is tremendous. She sings
well, but plays guitar and piano
even better. Janls Ian, "Society's
Child," Is one of the finest young
talents around. Sometimes I
wonder, though, who's been pushing her, and I feel sad.

examination of A.
William Clark's collage-reliefs
now on display In the Campus
Center Gallery reveals a pile of
Junk of which the usual comment
la "I throw that stuff away."
But Clark has taken nuts and
bolts, scraps of wood and metal,
chimney flues, bottle caps, reversible steel spindles, hinges,
broken chair legs, old license
plates, toy guns and cars, pliers,
etc., etc., and by some magic of
creative genius, has combined
them all Into artistically gratifying pieces.
These reliefs are the kinds of
things you can sit and look at for
hours, constantly making new
discoveries within the four boundaries (usually) of the frame. He
likes to work "the larger the
better" but finds difficulty In
getting his larger works through
doors; thus he has had to limit
himself to an extent.
Mr. Clark's main fascination
Is in the female form. "College
girls keep you young," he says.
"They Jeep you from getting too
serious about life." He draws
healthy, buxom females, adorning
them with blklnl-type cover-ups
of various materials
from
Yiddish and Japanese newspapers to pink tissue paper, which
he pastes down, dampens, and
partially rips up, to achieve a
uniquely textured effect, and "Improve the quality of the Images
In relief."
•Torso and Objects'
One relief, which he has arbitrarily
titled
"Torso and
Objects," will be exhibited later
this month In the faculty show
which will run concurrently with
the Nelson A. Rockefeller Collection In the Art Gallery of the
Fine Arts Building.
This relief Is about 3Vi x 4%
feet, one of the larger ones In the
show, and displays a plaster cast
of a female figure from chest to
hip, coated thickly with gray
paint, and heavily covered with
polyester to give It a hard finish.
Some distance above the body Is
a plaster face mask, the upper
portion of which is covered with
a pair of goggles.
Surrounding the torso are the
objects — a lady's high-heeled
shoe at hip level, a license plate
on the bottom, pot covers, a
variety of bottles and bottle caps,
all bearing some word or design
in relief, such as "liqueur,"
"colntreau," and "Insert screwdriver fully into slot lift up
handle pat. pend.", and a delicate
hand mirror in the torso's armpit.
Weedy Material
Some kind of weedy, hairy
material floats about the head.
Yet all of these objects are
neatly ordered, down to the heartadorned belt-buckle on the navel.
The gray paint gives a metallic,
blended look to the work, unifying the conglomerate objects into
Profiles in the Performing Arts
by John Webb
Findlay Cockrell, one of the University's
real musical artists, provided,us In his concert on Friday, with a perfectly delightful
and exciting evening. His program was entitled, "The Romantics,"
featuring works
by Chopin, Schumann, Liszt, Brahms and ending with an encore by "The one romantic
that was left out," Mendelssohn.
Mr. Cockrell opened his program with "Carnaval, Scenes mlgnonnes sur quatre notes" '
by Schumann. Each section of "Carnaval,"
of which there are 21, beginning with the
"Preambule" and ending with the "Marche
des 'Davldsbundler' contre les Phlllstlns,"
is given a name, most of these being Biblical
terms or names of people, etc, One.he chose
to call "Chopin," so In this section he Inserts a distinctive Chopin theme while Intermingling his own style.

whole.
In "Orange and Gray Torso,"
his design Is somewhat, less
obvious, for one Is hard put to
find a semblance of a body among
the Elmer's Glue-AU'd objects.
But the texture and color of this
relief are most appealing.
Basically black, the surface
has been unevenly sprayed In
spots with rust-colored paint,
which gives a realistically rusted appearance to the metal and
wood. The surface had a grainy
texture, as if It were covered
with sawdust or sand, and Clark
has occasionally highlighted the
little bumps with white to augment
the tactile quality. There Is a
round object at the top of the
relief, possibly the head, that
looks like the iron framework
of a miniature rose window.

The rest of the relief collages
seem to jump out at you with
their variegated surface textures
and say "Touch me!" One piece
looks like a door and you want
to go through it.
His colors are for the most
part earthy tones which embrace
rather than put off the observer.
Clark works with a driving force
of creative Impulse. He says,
"I do It because I can't not do
It," and this feeling of almost
explosive creativity Is communicated to the viewer in a way
which would be Impossible on

Dynamic Ending
FINDLAY COCKRELL turned in an excellent performance
both in technique and expression in his piano concert last
Friday night.
The Spectator
by Robert B. Cutty
The Broadway season opened
again as usual with a failure.
Simultaneously, the off-Broadway
season also opened again naturally with a critical and, with
luck, popular success.
I can't answer the question of
why every new season tends to
begin in this manner, for even
the New York critics have been
foiled In the search for an answer. In general, these devout
students of the modern theatre
have summed up their collective
result with a sardonic shrug and
a disillusioned smile.
Intriguing-
Auditions Planned
For TwoMore Plays Drama Council
Following hard on the heels of
the selection of the castfor"The
Private Life ofthe Master Race,"
the State University Theater's
first production of the year, auditions for two more productions
have been scheduled for the next
two weeks. The first of the two
auditions will be for the Thesis
Laboratory Production of the
original one-act play, "A Piece
of Cake" (subtitled: "The Sound
of Deagle Domen In Your Ears").
The second auditions will be
for the State University Theatre
production of Elmer Rice's expresslonlstlc drama, "The Adding Machine," which will be directed by Martin Mann who has
directed past University Theatre
productions of "Stop the World, I
Want to Get Off' and" AClearlng
in the Woods."
'A Piece of Cake'
"A Piece of Cake" will be directed by William A. Frankonls
who Is also the author ofthe play.
Frankonls is directing the play as
part of his thesis requirements
In the graduate program of the
Department of Speech and Dramatic Art.
The play, which the directorauthor describes broadly as an
experiment in audience Involvement, requires only one male
and one female for Its case. "Both
roles are good, strenuous ones,"
the director says, "so casting the
parts will bedlfflcult unless there
Is a good turnout at auditions."
The tryouts for Frankonls' play
will be held Monday, Tuesday, and
Wednesday, October 9, 10, and
11, at 7:30 p.m. In Richardson
291. Examination scripts of the
play are available from Frankonls In Humanities 388, The tryouts are open to all students.

17, and 18, at 7:30 p.m. In Richardson 291, Martin Mann will
hold auditions for the University
Theatre production of "The Adding Machine."
"By not limiting our auditions
to drama students," Mann commented, "we have found some
excellent actors and actresses —
freshmen through graduate students — who are not drama
students." To this he added the
special reminder that the auditions were definitely open to all.
Of
"The Adding Machine"
it has been said that Elmer Rice
exposed "the starved and bitter
littleness and the huge universality of the Zero type, the slave
type, that from eternity to
eternity expresses the futility
and the tragedy of the mediocre
spirit." The slaves are "whitecollar slaves," willing victims
of a world of repression and
Inhibition.
Copies of the script have been
placed on reserve In the University library forthosewhowlsh
to read It before the auditions.
Mann also announced that those
who wish to audition but cannot
do so at the specified times
should see him personally In his
office, Humanities 316, to make
other arrangements.
To Discuss Plays
On Monday evening, Oct. 9,
the Dramatics Council will hold
the first of a series of sessions
designed to promote divergent
dramatic activity throughout the
university. During this first session we plan to discuss the selection and presentation of an
original play.
We welcome anyone who would
like to submit his script or Is
interested
in the practical
aspects of such a project. The
session will be held In the Campus
Center at 8 p.m. The room will be
posted on the "Campus Center

Particularly intriguing was the
, nature of these two opening productions. The Broadway production was Ira Levin's "Dr. Cook's
Garden." Levin Is the critically approved author of the bestselling novel about a modern
witch,
"Rosemary's
Baby,"
presently being filmed In New
York.
The off-Broadway enterprise
was a far more ambitious piece
than Levin's "modern" melodrama. Adapted by Hugh Leonard from James Joyce's "The
Portrait of an Artist as a Young
Man" and "Stephen Hero,"
"Stephen D" Is an attempt to
capture Joyce's birth as an Intellectual In a series of dramatic Incidents and monologues.
another critic 1 am merely trying to reveal the state of mixed emotions In which all persons concerned with the state
of the modern theatre (among
them myself) have been plunged
due to the predictable opening
of this season.
I hope that the rest of the
year will make up for the unspectacular beginning and that the
1907-1968 season, both on Broadway and off, will end in a bla/.e
of cheer-stricken fireworks. But,
as to our hopes, the public and
the critics will tell and their
voices whether In applause or
disapproval will be quite loud.
In the section "Paganlni" the final bars
build up to a very dynamic ending, but the
final chords are very very soft, an effect
which Cockrell gained by laying his fingers
lightly on the keys so only the overtones
could be heard. This entire number was of
tremendous difficulty requiring extreme versatility and perfect technique, all of which
were beautifully exhibited. At times, perhaps
two fingers of a hand were sustaining a steady,
pulsating chord, while the other three were
playing the moving notes.
He then turned to the beautiful, soft and melodic "Consolation in D flat" by Liszt, requiring the height of interpretation. It was extremely Interesting to watch the way he approached each phrase. One could see his mind
and eyes working very Intensely so that when
he brought his hands down, the resulting touch
would produce the proper effect. He always
succeeded — the same being true later in
the Chopin numbers.
The first half of the program was closed
with Liszt's frantic and extremely difficult
"Mephlsto Waltz." At times the music reached such dynamic dimensions that Cockrell's
entire body — every muscle — came alive
in response.
The number was beautifully
executed,
Brahms' 'Variations'
The second half opened with Brahms' "Variations and Fugue on a Theme by Handel."
The
My one reaction to the work itself is that Brahms
, certainly had a ball with Handel, and at times
during Its performance, I simply had to chuckle.
This number has unfortunately been transcribed
for orchestra by Edmund Rubbra. It loses practically everything, and cannot be compared
to his very beautiful "Variations" on Haydn
which Is performed primarily by orchestra.
This was also very difficult but well done.
Polonaise - Fantasy by Chopin (not tor-bC
confused with the famous Polonaise so popularly performed by Iturbe) was similar in
many respects to the Brahms number, and
was by far the low point in the evening. Although, again, the performance was brilliant
In every respect right down to the fast thrills
— s o fast that his fingers were a blur — the
heat, and rather boring number began to have
Its effect on the audience. It Is my opinion that a slightly varied number could have been
chosen for this spot.
Chopin's very exciting "Ballade In G Minor," closed the performance. Conditions for
the concert were absolutely deplorable. The
humidity was unbelievable, as well as the
heat, obviously making the keys wet and sticky.
Quite frequently Mr. Cockrell was forced to
stop and wipe the keys, and during the sec-.
ond portion of the concert had to dispense
with his glasses.
Student Attendance Poor
My over-all reaction to this concert, as Is
rarely my case, Is one of complete praise.
Cockrell's
technique
and expression are
both excellent. One becomes enraptured by
the effect which he produces as well as by
watching him manipulate. I saw only one disappointing feature, and this was the attendance
on the part of the student body — It was
damn poor. We are supposed to be a university which is growing culturally, primarily
in music and theater. The concert on Friday
certainly did not show It when the majority
of the fairly sizeable audience was from the
outside. If students can come all the way
from Union for this, why can't State show
up. It's about time a lot of students here
woke up.
I fully expect to see Findlay Cockrell's
name on the marquis of Carnegie Hall In
the future, and my one and only comment
in response to his performance on Friday
is — "Mr. Cockrell, It certainly Is an honor
to have you on our faculty,"

reasonably well, but Bridgeport just had too much talent.

open air lectures.Strong is working to assure that classes be
held In areas which will be optimal for free discussion.
The lectures will be by people
who have functional and working
knowledge In the field they will
be discussing; some of them are
non- degree people, but Strong
says "they do have the practical
experience, an element sorely
lacking in some of the people
now teaching in American educational Institutions."
Second purpose
The second purpose of tne independent study will be the collection of data by Strong and his
staff.
For this reason those who
participate in the Seminar will
be asked to fill out questionnaires which will be kept strictly confidential.
However, Strong emphasized
that he didn't want the people
who take part In the Seminar
to think "they are being used
as guinea pigs."
"The experimental Seminar Is
a very re*! thing with a very
real purpose. The study, while
not a secondary Issue, Is of no
more Importance than the Seminar itself: Both are equally Important."
The six week Seminar will be
divided into three two-week series which will delve Into the three
following areas: The total Interaction of Modern Art; Academic
Power In National and International Politics; and The Puritan
Ethic Versus Brotherly Loves
The first topic of the series
will Investigate how the music,
painting, dance, films, and the
theater etc. of today can be,
and are utilized to bring about
the total Interaction of the arts.
The second series will discuss
the nature of pressure groups
on Campus; both their present
and potential power.
The third series will view
affluent modern America where
the "total love of self and material things is in constant competition with love of fellow, and
