Sports Editor
The Inter-Fraternity Council enacted a rule recently which
disallows Independents from playing on fraternity teams In AMIA
sports. This rule, which will go into effect with the coming basketball season, Seems to me to be a good rule, but one thai never
should have had to been passed. A fraternity is Indeed degrading
Its Ideals when It allows a non+rother to play on a team bearlng Oat organisation's name.
*******
The annual time lapse between varsity sports has hit the campus and It i s unfortunate that a tight AMIA league I football race
has not developed to capture the Interest of the University's sports
fans. Potter Club, with an undefeated record of Ave wins and a
scoreless tie with Alpha PI Alpha has only two games remaining In the Club's quest for an unbeaten season. An EEP victory
or tie clinches another trophy for the club.
*******
An Ideal subject for some sort of psychology study would be
our own Doc Sauers. One would not be surprised to notice strange
things. After all, you would be affected too If after years of coaching basketball, you learned that half the bench wasn't for the players and the other half for you, but Instead you were allowed to
fill up the entire bench with players If you could find them, and
this year the Doc's blessed with a bench. Transfer students, promoted frosh, and returning vets give Doc a squad large enough
to employ more fast-break playing with less of a sacrifice as
subs will always be available.
*******
The fall varsity sports season is completed and the University should be commended on some of the fine Innovations that
were made. The fall baseball team became a reality, and the
scheduling of big game schools did not hurt the school's climb
to blg-tlme athletics.
Coach Munsey's first annual Albany Crosscountry Invitational
was without a doubt the sports highlight of the year. The fact that
a strong Springfield team ran away with the varsity division can
hopefully encourage other strong teams to participate in the future and take a crack at the big victory.

Albany Booters f a l l 3-0
End FrustratinfiSea8<xn3-7
by Dune Nixon
Jack Esposlto upped the count
to 2-0 when at 17:04 of the second quarter he slid Into a ball
that had stopped In a puddle In
front of the goal. The ball had
been deflected by Jerry Leggleri's diving save and probably
would have gone over the end
line, If It hadn't been for the
puddle.
Dan Metzger rapped It up for
Stony Brook when he scored on
a breakaway at 10:33 of the
fourth period.
Albany Plays Well
The Great Danes seemed to
be playing well throughout, but
their deliberate pass and set-up
attack was continuously thwarted
by the heads-up play of the Stony
Brook fullbacks, who alertly
broke up Albany attacks simply
by turning the ball out and over
the side-line.
Thus the Great Danes finished the season with a somewhat
discouraging 3-7 record. Only
once were they really outclassed, but they simply lacked the
firepower necessary to pull out
the close ones.
Seniors for whom this was the
last game Include co-captalns
Tim Jursak and Jerry Legglerl,
linemen Gary Swartout and Getachew _ Habteh-Ylmer, and halfback-fullbacks Joe LaReau and
Tony Glaser.
So Coach Garcia will be losing six of bis present starters.
However the present freshman
team Is one of the best in recent years, so the outlook for
next season may not be so bleak
after all.

Playing on a swamp-like rain soaked field, the Albany State booters ended a frustrating season Saturday with a tough 3-0 loss to Stony Brook University. Once again
the Great Danes controlled the ball for a greater portion of the game than did their
opponents, but again they were simply unable to score. Stony Brook on the other hand
struck quickly and effectively, scoring on breakaways that resulted in one-on-one situations, and goals.
Al Freidhelm got the Patriots off to-a quick lead,
as he scored on a pass
from Dan Kaye at 3:05 of
the first oeriod.
Harriers Romp To 15-50
by Thomas Nixon
The Albany State Harriers recorded their seventh straight win
and fourth shutout of the year
this Saturday as they defeated
New Paltz 15-50. Mike Attwell
set a course record of 25:25,
breaking the old record by an
amazing one minute and thirty
seconds.
The Great Danes, In recording the shutout, placed the first
seven finishers as they once
more far outclassed their opponents. Co-captain Joe Keating
placed second as he ran his
best race so far this year. Following Keating across the line
for the Harriers were Paul Breslln, George Rolling, Don Beevers, Bob MulveyandBobHolmes.
The fact that Paul Roy, who
has been sharing the top honors
with Attwell all year, did not
even run In this race emphasizes
the lop-sldedaess of the score.
Again, however, the close competition among members the team
itself was exemplified as Joe
Keating came on strong to finish second in the race.
This victory, not Including
competition In two Invltationals
brought Albany's record for the
year to seven wins and only one
loss, In addition, it raised Coach
Munsey's overall record to an
amazing 80 wins against only
five losses.
Despite the one-sldedness of
the score, the Great Danes did
not turn as strong a performance
as possible as the time spread
between their top five rumwrs

At the recent China Seminar,

"The Economic Development of

Dr. Chen began by saying that
"the overpopulation of China is
the most Important factor in determining Its economic development." He went on to back his
statement with population statistics.
Since 1957 the Communists
have not released any population statistics. But considering the rate of Increase at about
2.2 per cent per year, this would
put the population at about 750
million.
About 80 per cent of this population Is supported by agriculture. Thus Dr. Chen declared,

University Gets Grants
For Biological Study
Two awards totaling $82, 781
have been received by the University to support biological research projects being directed
by Dr. Yasb P. Myer, assistant
professor of chemistry at the
university.
One grant Is for $50,000 from
the National Science Foundation
for research entitled "conformation of Cytochromes." The other
award Is for $32,781 from the
American Cancer Society to support Myer*s research entitled,
"Conformation and Function of
Rlbonuclease."
The NSF grant, for a two year
period, Is concerned with the
significance of the enzymes Involved in the mechanism of the
utilization of energy in the body.
The basic goal of the project
Is to Investigate the relationships between conformation and
the biological activity of the
enzymes involved In the electron
transport system.
In the research supported by
the ACS for two years, Myer Is
concerned with further study of
rlbonuclease, an enzyme which
breaks down ribonucleic acid.
He stated that the understanding
of rlbonulcease In governing Its
properties may develop knowledge of the control mechanism
of cell growth.
Myer was born in India and
received his basic education In
that country. He holds bachelor's
and master's degrees from PanJab University in India, In that
country, from 1953 through 1957,
he conducted Investigations related to surface absorption and
capillary condensation.
The scientist came to the
United States In 1957 when he
began graduate work at the University of MinnesotaHe completed his doctorate at

The showing last week was
introduced by Miss Minnie Meegan of the Health Service to
consider films of potential value
available to the student body.
The reviewers were to discuss
the informative quality of the
films and their appeal to the
college level audience.
"LSD—Insight or Insanity"
explored the world of LSD, the
effects the user experiences and
the unpredictable long range effects of excessive or prolonged
use.
The film also gave attention to the lack of researched
knowledge about the workings
of LSD In the body.
Syphilis and gonorrhea, venereal diseases most common In
teen-agers, were explained In the
film "A Quarter Million Teenagers." How the diseases are
transmitted, symptoms, treatment and effects were covered

Severe Financial Blow
Hits Teacher Corps
WASHINGTON (CPS) — T h e
Teacher Corps has received such
a severe financial blow that it
may not be able to recruit a
new group of interns for the summer and fall of 1968.
The blow came this week when
Congress passed and sent to
President Johnson the appropriations bill for (he Departments of
Labor and Health, Education, and
Welfare. The bill Included only
$13.5 million for the Teacher
Corps, far less than the $33
million requested by President
Johnson and Teacher Corps officials.
"This la certainly not expanssion money. It Isn't even holdeven money," a Teacher Corps
official said.
The source said the bill will
not finance the Corps past next
June 30. "There will be no money
for us to go beyond the 1,900
Corpsmen we now have, and we
will lose 900 of those at the end
of this school year."
The Teacher Corps, which
sends college students working on
their master's degree to teach
in slum schools, Is just one of
many Federal agencies which
have suffered because of pressures on Congress to reduce
spending.
Congress extended the controversial Corps for three years
this past summer, but now has
not supplied It with the funds to
meet the needs of urban and
rural slums.
Even though the Corps can be
saved by a supplemental appropriation next year, much of the
damage to the program already
has been dorfe. Colleges and universities will be unable to plan
their training programs, and local school systems will not be
able to count on asupply of corps-
men for their schools.
Most local school systems begin hiring teachers around the
first of the of the next school
year.
In addition, the shortage of
funds probably will keep potential corpsmen from applying.
The 913.5 million for the Corps
was recommended by a SenateHouse conference committee.
The Senate orglnally had voted
to give the program $18.1 million, but the House had voted
no funds for the Corps. The
compromise was accepted by both
Houses with little dispute.
The Corps' appropriation Is
Included In the $13.25 billion bill
which Congress passed for the
Departments of Labor and Health,
Education, and Welfare. •
The bill contains $lss.56 billion for HEW, an amount of $141.2
million below the Administration's request, but $249.3 million above the HEW appropriation for Fiscal 1987. For the
U.S. Office of Education, the
bill appropriates $3.88 billion, a
decrease of $83.6 million from
the budget request for the new
fiscal year, and a decrease of
$9.1 million from 1967 appropriations.
Congress again allowed no
funds to support the International
Educational Act. Authorized In
1965, the program has never
been funded.
It would provide grants for graduate programs In international studies
and research and Improvements
In undergraduate curricula In International affairs.
The Act also provides for the
establishment of the National
Advisory Committee on international Studies. President John,
son had requested $36.5 million
for the program.
Plans For Indian Quad
Nearing Completion
by Jonie Samuels
The working drawings for the
Indian Quad are nearing completion, and it Is anticipated that
construction will begin this
spring. This fourth quad to house
1300 students will show no outward signs of change. However,
It will show a "grand departure from suite living."
Mr, Walter Tisdale, Assistant
to the President for Planning
and Development, feels the Indian Quad will offer the student
choice as to his living accommodations since for many the
suite Is too public and too disturbing.
Though the four and six man
suites that exist now will be
available, the predominate set-up
will be the two bedroom arrangement. Four students will share a
common entrance called a vestibule which will lead Into two larger bedrooms that the present
suites now offer. There will be no
common study or private bathroom.
There will also be more single
rooms either Joined as the third
bedroom of the present suite
arrangement or as a completely
separate unit. Thus the low-
risers will offer everything from
single to four, five or six person occupancy.
In the Tower, there will be no
suites; everything will be the
two bedroom arrangement. There
will be more expansive lounges
for each floor that will provide
kitchenettes and storerooms.
The podium level of the Tower
will house the mallroom and
boxes for the entire quad.
Innovations are also planned
for the U-shaped lounge such as
Individual dining units and areas
with moving partitions to provide privacy for such things as
committee and sorority and fraternity meetings. There will also
be for small lounges off the
flag room, more recreational
facilities and TV in the basemont.
The dining room will be set-up
differently In order to speed up
the annoying wait in line. A
"scramble arrangement" will be
Instituted for lunch and dinner
meals. There will be individual
stands for cold foods, hot foods,
desserts, and beverages to enable students to go and pick up
what they want and so avoid
unnecessary tie-ups.

such an experiment, and the reasons for lack of Interest.
In reality, the project Is an
experimental seminar, the distinction being that our courses
are chosen mainly by our organizers, while a Free University
allows its participants free reign
in the decision of topics. The latter is a more convenient title,
because it may be recognized by
a wider variety of people.
The three main topics under
review this semester are: "The
Total Interaction of Modem Art,"
"the Bnrltan Ethic js. Brotherly Love," and "Academic Power
and National and International
Politics." The Idea bas been to
integrate many Ideas under one
general heading. For instance,
last Wednesday night the subjects fluctuated from "What Student Pressure Groups Accomplish" to war, black power, Nuremburg, and the morality of
dissent.
Attendance has been extremely poor. Lou felt that either the
more established groups on campus were distracting students,
holding meetings on similar evenlngs, or a much more logical
explanation: people on this campus refuse to attempt new events.

In order to perceive an undercurrent of discontent, and, unfortunately, resignation. Why
have we, myself Included, allow-
ed ourselves to become so Inadequate as to be completely unaware of glaring faults and Insensitive to solutions? A recent
article by Paul Goodman explains
this:
The structure of society
that bas become increasingly
dominant in our country is disastrous to the growth of excellence and manliness. The system buys up as much intelligence as it can and muffles
voices of dissent; and then Irrefutably proclaims that Itself
is the only possible societynothing else Is thinkable. We
seem to have lost our genius
for Inventing changes to' satisfy
cyring needs."
There Is the possibility that
in our shallow attempts to "play
it cool" we are freezing our initiative and warming up to nothing
short of cynicism. There are
numerous alternatives open to
those who have become disenchanted with apathy and criticism. The Free University is a
perfect example; we are offered
so many other opportunities.

As a second function of the

the "speculations and prediction
concerning the very long range
future of society and Its Implication for changes In University
obligations."
Beyong 1975 the field of education will probably see the development of translation machines
which will eliminate language
barriers, computerized teaching
machines, the substitution of new

construction, to mention only a
few of the possible changes.
The necessity of entering college will be felt to a far greater
degree than It Is presently. "The

Will the Institute of the university disappear as' more effective methods of learning develop? Or will the university

depressant also, within society.

Students Protest
For Variety Of Causes
Washington (CPS) — Students
throughout ike country last week
sat-ln, demonstrated, and obstructed for a variety of causes.
At Grambllng College In LouisUna, over 80 per cent of the students struck the school in protest against the overemphasis on
athletics there. The president of
the student body and the editor of
the faculty newspaper were suspended Monday for their part In
leading the strike.
Students for a Democratic Society had an active week, protesting CIA recruiting at the University of Maryland, secret CIA
financing of research at Columbia, Marine recruiting at the University of Iowa, and classified
research at the University of
Michigan.
At the'University of Pennsylvania a hundred sittlng-in students Wednesday disrupted Job
Interviews being carried out by
both Dow Chemical Corporation,
the makers of napalm, and the
Central Intelligence Agency. At
City College of New York a student strike broke out as' construction started again on a temporary building earlier blocked
by student protestors.
The siMn at the Maryland engineering building Monday delayed CIA recruiting for a day or
so, but had Utile other effect.
On Monday, when a campus official read the Maryland Trespass
Act to the demonstrators, they
dispersed, and on Thursday, their
numbers depleted, they again
broke up their sit-in under threat
of arrest.
In Iowa City there were about
100 arrested in three school buses after they successfully blocked
entrance to the Iowa Memorial
Union where Marine Corps recruiting was being carried out.

Among the staff members Involved' In the discussion was Professor Emeritus William O. Dow,
who had been responsible for
much of the classified work acquired by the university In the
post-war years. He was booed
when he declared his pride in the
part he had played "to strengthen my country's prowess and
stature."
About thirty faculty members
supported student demonstrators
and opposed the continuation of
classified research, saying that
secret research is alien to toe

Words of wisdom to cover the
whole thing were found in Ohio,

"This action Is clearly disrespectful of normal authority,"

The Albany Democratic Politi.

threat of prison In an effort
to maintain their hold over the
lives of the poor black people
of Albany. That they have been
particularly heavy- handed this

he controversy which has been building up over the 1968 Jazz Festival can
finally be waded through. The red tape
is unwound, and all .that remains is a
basic difference in philosophy between
the Special Events Board and the proponents of a festival for the sake of jazz.
This is Indicated by the fact that Special Events Board as a whole has decided to appropriate $6,000 of the $10,000
Festival budget to secure Louis Armstrong
as the main concert artist for the Festival. This Is all being done before the
selection of the co-chairmen for the event.
The rationale behind this move Is that
they should begin building up the concept
of the Festival—giving It a big name by
contracting someone who is famous. Later
will be the time to concentrate on the Jazz
angle, when they have a bigger budget
and a bigger name.
This philosophy does not fit with the
whole Idea of having a jazz festival;
the $6,000 presently being spent on Armstrong might be better spent on improving the range and variety of the jazz artists.
The Special Events Board voices its
concern with spending the student tax
money wisely. Because they have receiv-

not hit the group; therefore, the ASP too
would like to move that there be a communications problem to enforce this hypothesis.
The problem should center around the
fact that the ASP does not publish enough
notices, and that Communications Commission, which has never received suggestions for any action, also be one of
the major causes.
That the top governmental brass cannot communicate within themselves is of
no concern; in fact, it makes government more interesting — what with all
the surprises.
Additionally, we make a plea that all
commissions continue to war within themselves over who receives the least cooperation and who does the most to cooperate. We feel that if commissions
start realizing their full potential to be
un-cooperative truly forward advances
could be made.
We further suggest that all branches
begin by denying all attempts to get to
the nitty-gritty of an issue and continue the back-stabber approach so successful in the past.

Visiting Scholar Explains
Back Stabber
After listening to the gab returns,
and reading the reports on the closed
evaluation session held last Thursday
among the top student leaders we now
know two things. First, we now know
that the non-existent Supreme Court does
exist, and second we know that there Is
a communications problem on campus.
Actually the existence of the first proves
the second. Apparently somewhere someone dropped a card saying, "The sky is
falling, there is no Supreme Court." The
tragedy of course results when everyone believes It.
485 people voted against them
i (2S0 for the Republican and 205
for Gibson) a sign of diminish• lag power. (The Machine candidate receive 1,400 votes).
Through their control of the
. police, the welfare department
and by a paternalistic system of
jobs and
other favors, the
- Machine convinces many black
voters to vote a straight row "B"
ticket.
The local committeeman is responsible for seeing to It that
the people on his list come out
on election day. He picks up
many people personally and arranges for the five dollar "gift"
to be taken care of.
If any voter has Ideas about
rebelling once' In the voting booth,
the atmosphere of the polling
place is sufficient to change his
mind. The Machine Is there —
calling htm by his first n a m e checking his name off as he comes
In — listening to the clicks as
he casts his "secret ballot."
Gibson's 205 votes came from
a ward where the Liberal Part}'
registration was only 44 persons last year. Those who voted for him did so In spite of the
Machine's
arresting tactics
against members of The Brothers and In spite of the local newspapers willingness to make these
arrests front page stories.
The Brothers have already
started making plans for future
electoral battles. They recognize
that most of their programs and
a number of State and Federal
programs that could help Albany's ghettoes will be either
held up or watered down as long
as the Machine Is In power.
Through a possible alliance
with the city's Republican Party,
The Brothers could pick up Republican endorsements In 1908
and much needed campaign funds.
In return they would support candidates like Dan Button and Rena
Posner, both of whom were badly
beaten In the city of Albany and
In the ghetto wards.
one another and how much closer
the lower class comes to enjoying the advantages of middleclass life.
But the positive approach cannot always be expected to work.
There are tlmos when the
organizer must stop looking for
friends and realise that he Is facing enemies. These enemies are most often power structures that
are either actively indifferent or
overtly hostile to the needs of the
low-income community. The city
of Albany is certainly an example
of this. In situations like these,
the VISTA would be foolish totry
to act as a Uason; here he must
devote his efforts to organizing
and teaching the poor the reality
of militant resistance. This is the
logic of Black Power. A certain
number of Negroes Is tired of
looking for friends; they rather
turn to organizing their own communities In the hope of producing
political power blocs that have to
be dealt with.
Negative organizing Is always
accompanied by a literature of
paranoia and persecution. It has
to. It Is only when the low-Income
community Is convinced of the
power structure's contempt of
them can they effectively unite
to fight. This Is why SNCC's
white-hating, breast-beating Is
not to be taken terribly seriously.
Their aim Is not so much toburn
down the suburbs as it Is to
solidify the black community
against what appears to be their
common enemy—the white man's
success at the price of the black
man's bondage.
One must not make the mistake
of saying that positive organization Is superior to negative
organization or vice versa. It all
depends onthepirticular circumstances. The organizer must
choose which approach will
facilitate the goals of the community he Is working In. Many
people have criticized VISTA and
OEO for being too partial to the
positive approach, but what other
position can they take. Imagine
the uproar If the Federal government fundedSNCCorevenCORE?
The trouble with each approach
is that to positive organizing the
VISTA has to sacrifice certain
goals to order to stay on friendly
terms with the power structure,
while In negative organizing the
VISTA has to realize that he may
sacrifice the middle-class concessions (like Headstart funding)
for the sake of solidarity. Probably the criterion to choosing an
approach Is whether the organizer Is content to achieving actual,
Immediate gains or rather hopes
to achieve greater change somewhere In the future.
Myskania Abandons Plans
To Become Judicial Body
by Roy McCloot
Chairman of Myskania
After several weeks of deliberation and debate, MYSKANIA
has decided that Its future role
shall be that of a student sounding body that shall at all times
keep Itself and the university
aware of "future needs" and
problems of the student body.
MYSKANIA had previously announced that It was considering
assuming the judicial role of the
student government, but after
learning that a fallacy existed
about Supreme Court being tooperative, MYSKANIA reconsidered Its previous decision.
Although no formal statement
has
been Issued as yet,
MYSKANIA chairman Ray McCloat expounded MYSKANIA's
views at a special session of
Central Council, Supreme Court,
and MYSKANIA on Thursday,
Nov. 9.
He said that MYSKANIA has
for a long time been concerned
with Its role on campus, as the
honorary hass been severely
affected by the transition and
rapid growth of Albany. In trying
to find a role suitable to the
background and composition of
MYSKANIA, It was decided that by
fully devoting Its efforts toward
a meaningful Interpretation of
Article V, section 2, letter c of
the SA constitution, MYSKANIA
could best serve a broad and
responsible role on campus.
That section of the constitution
reads under the the duties of
MYSKANIA: "To act to concert
with the Central Council and the
University
In contemplating
future needs of the student body."
McCIoat also said, "By becoming a responsible student sounding board, MYSKANIA hopes to
act as arespresentatlvebody that
will be concerned with and react
to the needs of the student communlty.v
"In this capacity," he added,
"we hope to fully utilize the experience and university Involvement that MYSKANIA members'
represent in providing the school
with a body dedicated to keeping
university policies and student
opinions In view.
The ASP will begin soon to
raise money for
Its foster child.

And that even the spots where the enamel had come

In addition to Its run In New York, this play has

companies on the road now, and has been equally
popular In Europe, to March we are going to have
the pleasure of seeing It here at the University.
It has been chosen a* this year's State University
Revue, and although a terribly small show for the
Revue, will undoubtedly be very enjoyable for Its
audiences.
Adapted to Modern Form
The play, taken from "Les Romantiques" by
Edmund Rostand, the French playwright famous
for bis "Cyrano de Bergerac," ha* been adapted
to It* modern form by Tom Jones with music
by Harvey Schmidt. These two men are the authors of "I Do, I Dot" presently running on Broadway with Mary Martin and Robert Preston.
Many delightful, sjrious, andcomlcal songs dominate its score: "Try to Remember," "Much
More," "Never Say No," "The Rape Song," "Soon
It's Gonna Rain," "Happy Ending," "I can See It,"
"Plant a Radish," and "They Were You." These
are all accompanied by a piano, a harp and percussion.
There are eight characters: the boy and the girl
—the ones In love; the Narrator or the bandit El
Gallo who relates with the audience and who leads
the young ones Into the world; the girl's father and
the boy's father who constantly conspire to bring
the kids together, even to the point of a rape,

and then worry a lot; and the old actor and his
companion, the Indian, who serve to represent the
world In general, These actors, with a simple platform, a paper moon and sun, and a box of simple
props, create one of the most delightful and whimsical shows of the century.
Bvery Boy And Girl
It Is the story of every boy and girl that have
ever grown up and fallen in love. We can all remember when we were young at home, we wanted
to leave and go away to explore the sights and experience the bright and shining world beyond our
doorstep. We can all remember when we fell in
love with the girl next door, and knew that "this
was It," but yet everything was so fickle.
Then we left and went out Into that world,
and found that there was "despair," and that
we were suddenly alone, pitted against the ruthless and unfeeling atmosphere around us. Then
we went back, we fell In love again, and this time
we really meant It. We had aged and grown up to
learn what life was all about and suddenly everything was real. This is "The Fantastlcksl" When

ties under Special Events Board
have a constitution except the
Spring Jazz Festival. Now, keeo
this in mind for a minute.,
Motion Approved
Last week, Special Events
Board approved a motion to subordinate finances and the chairmen of the Spring Jazz Festival
to the Chairman of Parent*'
Weekend. What this mean* to
that the chairmen of the festival
will not be able to make on*
move without the approval of
James Kahn, this year's chairman for Parents' Weekend. Now,
realize that Mr. Kahn knows no
more about the Intricacies of
Jazz and jazz performers than
I know of the Intricacies of nuclear physics.
Despite the fact that he was"
at one time the chairman of
Contemporary Music Council,
nevertheless, he has never shown
himself to know anything about
any music, let alone Jazz. He
proved It to me when he also
moved that Louis Armstrong be
contracted to play at the festival.
Now, for the present, let*s disregard the fact that it's Louie
that we are talking about. Rather
let's look at the other points.
Over Telephone
First of all, both of these motions were put to the board and
approved over the telephone. Secondly, the chairmen of the festival have not yet been picked
(the sore spot again). Thirdly,
presuming that the people chosen
to chair the festival are knowledgeable (Heaven help me If
they aren't), Imagine the hindrances they will have to put
up with by being subject to a
person who knows nothing of
the music, and what Is even
worse, is pushing his own event
the very same weekend.
Truly, we are bordering on
the insane if for a minute we
can imagine that either of the
events will be a success. We
have just gone through one experience resulting from this type
of zeal. Do we have to travel
the same path twice?
Then there Is the point of
contracting Satchmo. He is going to cost the student body
$6,000. This will leave the Jazz
Festival with $4,000 In its budget (that's right, this Is coming
out of the J.F. budget and the
chairmen. . .), What other performers can the chairmen possibly hire with the remaining
money that would even come
near the quantity and the amazing quality that last year's festival had? (Remember that each
guest artist at last year's festival was a winner of a Critic's
Poll.) Louie may have been considered the best In his time,
but there are many who are
better now, if they could hire
him and still have as much as
there was
last year, then I
could see It, But for $6,000?
Final Point
This leads us to the final
point of this article. Page three
contains a story concerning this
entire fiasco. The gist of the
story is that Special Events Board
Is going to conduct a poll "this
month" to gauge student opinions on Jazz. Evidently, this
will determine whether the students really want a Jazz festival
or not. Well, I'd like to take
this further. Also on page three,
there Is an ASP Student Activities Poll that Is gauging student opinion on all campus events,
not just jazz. Maybe we can do
away with much of the unnecessary events that now clutter up
the calendar, like Parents'Weekend, I urge you all to answer
the questions on the poll and return It to the ASP through Campus Mail (It's free), or drop it
in the ASP notice box at the
information desk In the Campus
Center. This will be one of the
few chance* you will have to determine what type of entertainment you will have on our campus.
The results of the poll will be
published in Die ASP. Let's just
hope that the government we
elected will listen to what lis
employers have to say.

Cafe Lena Program
To Feature Webb
by John Lipmon
The Cafe Lena In Saratoga Is
one of the better places to escape
to on Friday, Saturday or Sunday
evening and leave all your
thoughts of Albany behind.
The easiest way to get there
is to take the Northway to Exit
9P and then ask for Phllla Street
and or the Cafe Lena.
Shows at the Cafe start at
8:30 or 9 p.m. depending on the
popularity of the performer and
go 'til 10 or 1, with two breaks.
This weekend Pat Webb Is the
feature performer.
In appearance, the Lena is like
all other coffee houses; It's kind
of dark and dim, but putting all
that aside, it's a nice place to
visit. Fred and Dennis (no last
names available as we go to
press) run the leather shop in
the adjacent room.
Lena, who looks a little like
an old Indian squaw, has been
running the cafe for seven years
now. Lena's If not strictly a folk
music cafe, but the entertainment
Is basically folk oriented.
Lena has had Arlo Guthrie,
the Green Briar Boys and Nlel
Linden, Michael Cooney, Lewis
Klllen, Rosalie Sorrells, Barbara Karns, the Penny whistlers
and other various and sundry
performers. If you can make it
up there, it's a good place to go.
A play which concentrates almost entirely on the relationship between audience and actor, "A Piece of
Cake" began its four performance showing Wednesday
and continues through tomorrow night in the little theatre,
Richardson 291. This play Is an original script prepared
by William Frankonis as partial fulfillment of the requirements for his master's thesis in Dramatic Art.
Frankonis describes his production as an experiment
in audience Involvement and to this end has changed
the usual pattern of theatre going. The director-author
adds that the entire staging of "A Piece of Cake" Is devoted to breaking the pattern of accepted theatre practices.
By changing even the typical seating arrangement,
Frankonis feels that the audience will be forced to observe the play differently than it would a standard performance. His cast, Beth Sabowltz and Jay Kuperman, will
emphasize this aspect by their attitude and response to
the spectator.
There. Is no charge for tickets for "A Piece of Cake,"
but since there can by only fifty people In the audience
each night, tickets must be obtained in advance. They
are available at the State University Theatre Box Office
at the Campus Center Information Peak.
"A Piece of Cake," an original ploy by William Frankonis,
is being produced in partial fulfillment of his Master's Thesis
requirements.
SIDESHOW...
Cont'd from Pg. U
Buck's Number
The thunderous applause that
greeted Buck's number each night
Is clear proof of a simple fact:
for the second year In a row,
Dennis Buck's piano virtuosity
was the act that stopped the show
cold and dwarfed every number
that both preceded and followed
his.
And, at last, I turn to the
directors of SIDESHOW. First,
I will comment on various technical points of the show: lighting and sound effects were excellent (thanks to Phyllis Larsen), costumes were generally
good, the choreography was courageous (under Kathl O'Neil's direction), graphics were beautifully designed by Marc Cunningham, the chorus was very able,
and stage manager Sharon Westfall ran the show smoothly.
in the "Golden Oldies" section both Miss Rosenthal and
Kaufman were excellent, the
former pulsating, rich with life,
and rife with passion In "I Think
I'm Going Out of My Head," the
latter easy, mellow, and with a
sure understanding of dramatic
stress In "Anyplace I Hang My
Hat Is Home."

Associate Sports Editor
First of all a little basic philosophy. With only one
Issue a week there is little enough room for what is
right with athletics here at Albany, therefore the emphasis
of this column will be pointed toward what Is right, but
if something i s obviously wrong I won't be afraid to come
out and say s o .
Enough said, now for an analysis of this year's rather
frustrating soccer season. The Joe Garcia coached
booters finished the season 3-7 which is not good, but
which is about what had to be expected. The squad had
only 5 starters returning, and the freshmen team had
little to offer, as only one soph broke into the starting
lineup. The emphasis was put on defense, and several
players were outstanding in this respect. Co-captains
Tim Jursak and Jerry Leggier! were both top performers,
at fullback and goalie, respectively. Joe LaReau looked
very good, considering he was at a new position, while
John Compeau and Roger Saul also showed considerable
promise in the fullback slots.
With the emphasis on defense the Great Danes hoped
to hold the opposition down and thus win by low, close
scores. The strategy worked to some extent but not
completely. Only one team scored more than three goals,
but the Albany front line came up with only ten goals.
Gary Swartout came back from a leg injury to supply
much of the Great Danes scoring punch. He came up
with seven goals, with three against Adelphi, and two
against Utica. The rest of the front line, plus the halfbacks often displayed fine ball handling skills, and frequently controlled the ball as effectively as the opposition,
however, they simply lacked the "bigfoot" that is needed
to put the ball In the net.
Unfortunately the outlook for next year is about the
same. The varsity is losing six starters, and although
the frosh were pretty strong, their strength was mostly
defensive. Once again the Great Danes will probably be
laboring under a disadvantage unique to college soccer.
That is, that' when the Great Danes take the fiefd next
year, they will be facing teams like R.P.I, and others
who come in with 5-10 boys who are foreign born, with
a soccer ball at their feet.

LeMoyne Drops Harriers,
Great Danes Finish 7-2 <
by Dune Nixon
In the final meet of the season, the Albany State Great Danes dropped a close match
jMoyne by a score of 25-30. The loss to LeMoyne on their 5.15 mile course was
to LeMoyne
Students, local spectators, and sports editors can
knock athletics at the University all they want, but they
would have to look pretty far to find a good gripe concerning the cross-country sport at SUNYA. Coach Munsey suffered his worst season this past year, yet such
negatives as worst should not be taken seriously when
one considers that the team finished with a 7-2 record
in regular meets, with both those losses coming by
close scores.
The opening meet of the season accounted for one of
these losses when the Great Dane harriers fell by a narrow 7 point difference. With this meet run later in the
season, it would be quite conceivable that the scores of
this meet could have been reversed. While Coast Guard
was In prime shape for the meet. It was still too early
for the Munseymen to have reached the condition they
possessed later in the season. A week later the harriers showed they were ready when they, gave Coach
Munsey -the University's first shut-out victory, a landslide wimover Plattsburgh. Three more of these shutouts were presented to the coach this season.
Furthermore, In this worst season, the varsity harriers brought home victories over Siena and RPI in a
triangular and an outstanding second place finish in the
LeMoyne Invitational and a third in the Albany Invitational. One more disheartening fact Is that, this worst
team ever will lose only five runners, having stars
Mike Attwell, Paul Bresin, George Rolling, Don Beevers, Jim Keating and Paul Roy returning to form
the nucleus of the team. In fact, 12 of the 17 men listed on the roster will be returning next fall. With the
addition of several promoted freshmen that performed
on an out-standing frosh squad, this past year, Coach
Munsey will have much help In keeping the University a cross-country dynasty.
Perhaps Coach Munsey Is the key to the success
of the sport at the University. He is a rigorous recruiter who has a good eye for talent. He always gets his
runners into good condition through vigorous training,
yet he's the one who can be seen leading the pack of
runners. He has the envied ability of keeping his team's
morale high, and always psyched.
the flrst time that an Albany team has been defeated by LeMoyne. Joe Keating, running
his last race for the school was the first man to cross the line as he finished the race
in 29:32. The next three finishers were from LeMoyne as they crossed within a, space , ,
of 13 seconds.

Mike Attwell, who has been the top runner all year was leading at the three-mile
point when he suffered a severe muscle pull in the back and consequently finished
only 12th as he ran the final two miles under extreme pain. If Mike had not suffered
the injury and had continued in first place It would have been enough for an Albany
victory.
Paul Roy was the second finisher, for Albany as he followed the first three LeMoyne

ppg In addition to pulling down a
o
team leading 261 rebounds. He
has a tendency of fouling too
much.
Marglson will form the other
half of the dynamic duo along
with' Price. A smooth and graceful junior from Cortland, Rich,
6'2" and 165 lbs. led the team
In scoring last year as a sophomore with 17.4 ppg. Rich will
start at a forward position.
Captain Marcus Recovered I
Fully recovered from a broken
wrist which he suffered In the
Capital District Tournament last
December, captain Marcus, a
6'2", 200 lb. senior from Kingston will give much needed
strength up front. Playing In only
seven games last season, Larry
averaged 9.6 ppg while shooting
81 per cent from the foul line.
Christmas Hero Doody
Tom Doody, 5'10", 160 lbs.
Is expected to see a lot of action
at a guard post. A native of Troy,
Doody has great desire and always picks up the team when the
chips are down. Tom can be best
remembered as scoring the winning basket against Siena In the
Capital City Tourney two years
ago.
TJ Returns
A stalwart performer
and
tough competitor Is Tim Jursak.
A 6*1", 190 pound senior from
Utlca, Jursak was the team's top
reserve last year. He averaged
55.8 per cent of his field goal
attempts In limited action last
sfltmon
Jack Duffy, 6'3», 200 lbs.,
will bolster the forces under the
hoop. A junior who attended Fort
Edward High, Duffy possesses
a fine jump shot despite being a
big man.
Between the two losses, however, the sqad performed exceptionally well as they recorded four shutout victories. Although these victories were lopsided in score, the competition
among the team members was
strong as the order of finish
was different In each with Attwell and Roy leading the way.
Next Yeor
Another encouraging aspect Is
the fact that next year the squad
will have a solid nucleus of returning lettermen and will be
bolstered by a freshmen team
which finished the season with a
record of four wins and only
one loss.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1,1967
Deaths of Youths
Caused by Vapors
of Glass Chillers
Reports which Indicate that
aerosol glass-chillers have been
Implicated In the death of seven
persons In the sixteen to twentyone year age group In the last
year are of deep concern to the
aerosol Industry.
A report Issued to college students from Chemical Specialities
Manufacturers Association explained the danger of fluorocarbon In these products reportedly collected In a balloon and
then the Inhalation of the concentrated vapors. The user apparently expected an Intoxication or
similar experience.
Since fluorocarbons are regarded as relatively non-toxic and
safe for use In aerosols, students
may believe that confining the
concentrated vapor In a balloon
to Inhale, while excluding oxygen,
Is also harmless.
This Is not the case; It may
have fatal consequences. The
tragedy of a death Is sufficient
for the aerosol Industry to highlight the problem.
NEWSWEEK and TIME MAGAZINE reported the death of 11year-old Lucie White. Lucie and
her brother, Chip, Inhaled the
glass-chiller In their home. Lucie
inhaled the gas from a balloon
and fell over backward choking.
Medical reports on the case of
Lucie's death and the death of
18-year-old Mike McCuan, have
shown that inhalation of the gas
while the gas is still cold may
freeze the larynx and parallze
the respiratory system and death
by asphyxiation. Doctors have
also warned of the possibility
of brain-cell damage from prolonged Inhalation.
As a result some department
stores will no longer sell glasschillers to minors, and Du Font,
one of the manufacturers of
Freon, issued a statement warning of the dangers and urging the
education of youth to these
dangers.
Rice To Resign;
Plans To leach
Richardson L. Rice, dean of
the School of Social Welfare at
the University made known his
resignation to become effective
In September 1908. He plans to
continue on the University faculty
as a professor and, additionally,
will participate In a variety of
University
and International
social welfare activities.
In announcing his resignation
Rice said, "We have come along
way together since the fall of
1965 when we opened our school,
and we are pleased with our development so far. It seems wise
now to relinquish my responsibilities and to Involve myself
more fully In teaching and Investigation."
Rice was appointed to his
current post In June, 1964, when
he began recruiting faculty and
developing programs leading to
the establishment of the school
the following year.
Arrangements to find a successor are under way. Rice said
that he was hopeful that a new
dean would be at the school by the
beginning of the next academic
year.
Rice's tentative plans for the
future Includes those Involving
international social policy development, consultations with the
United Nations and the recruitment and selection of international students for the School of
Social Welfare.

The Incident resulting In the
suspension of five freshmen students was discussed at the President's Weekly Conference with
Students Monday. Of the five students four have appealed their
cases to a higher University
tribunal.
As a result these students are
still attending the University
pending the decision of their
cases. The students were charged with "Indecent behavior" after
an alleged Incident of varying degrees of sexual activity with a
co-ed In a dormitory.
The body that handed down the
decision to suspend the students
was the LAAC Judiciary Committee. This appointed group hoped that their conclusion would be
more educational than punitive
to the students Involved.
The University Committee on
Student Conduct will review the
cases of the students who have
appealed their cases. The committee, composed of three members of Student Association and
four faculty members Is a branch
of the Student Activities Committee.
Student Activities Committee
is a standing committee of Faculty Senate. The decisions reached by the judlcary groups are only
recommendations to President
Evan R. Collins. The President
is ultimately responsible for the
final decision.
In response to a question, President Collins stated that most
likely ten or fifteen years ago a
case such as this would have not
been aired and the students would
have been dismissed or suspended with no questions asked.
If It Is decided to suspend
these students for a year, they
will have to reapply for admission to the University College.
In most cases students are assured that they will be readmitted.
According to Clifton C. Thorne,
vice president for student affairs,
students In this condition may not
be readmitted If their academic
standing would have caused their
dismissal anyway.
Forum to Present
'J?wss. Revolution'
Forum of Politics will sponsor Leonard Schaplro speaking
on "The Russian Revolution:
Promises and Reality," Dec.
7 at 8 p.m. in the Campus Center Ballroom. The speech will
be followed by a question and
answer period.
Prof. Schaplro Is recognized
as one of the world's leading authorities on Communism In Soviet Russia, He Is the author of
several works of which the "Communist Party of the Soviet Union" Is the best known; this book
has been printed by Random
House as a paperback. Schaplro
Is also the editor of the magazine, "Government and Opposition" and the "Journel of Contemporary History."
Prof, Schaplro Is the
professor of Political Science
at the London School of Economics, University of London.
Admission will be free with
the presentation of a student
tax card; others should be prepared to pay admission.
BUFFY SAINT E MARIE
President Collins said the University would not take legal action
against the students. It was noted, however, that some of the
students' parents may take the
case into the civil courts.
In view of the violation of the
rules set forth by student guidelines, the group at the weekly
conference discussed possible
changes In the regulations.
It was suggested that guidelines
be more specific In defining "Indecent behavior." This suggestion was countered by the point
that there Is a need for a broad
rule that will be able to meet the
unpredictable problems that may
arise.
Those attending the President's conference also speculated
whether the rules for open houses
In the various dorms might be
changed. The conference Is held
every Monday at 2:15. All members of the student body may
attend this Informal gathering.
Students Protest
Against Draft:
In Albany Mon.
by Bob Kalish
Students from area schools
and colleges will demonstrate
on Monday, Dec. 4 at the Induction Center In downtown Albany
at the Old Post Office Building
on Broadway. Students and faculty who wish to sympathize with
the demonstrators of the war
and the draft will begin to assemble at the Induction Center
at 6:30 a.m.
Students from Bard College
will return their draft cards.
Others will support them by picketing and participating in Civil
Disobedience.
Most Americans have discussed the War; nearly a million have
demonstrated their conviction
that the war has achieved nothing
but slaughter. To show their
contempt for Administration policy, some have gone so far as
to risk jail.
Last October 16, according
to "The Resistance" over 1,200
young men In 30 cities returned their draft cards to the federal government.
The Resistance also stated in
another publication, "We have
seen 102,000 American casualties In a senseless war. We have
seen a land destroyed and a
people made homeless."
"We hold that the President
has not Justified the actions taken. Therefore, we will no longer
cooperate with the Selective Service system. We will accept no
deferments, carry no draft cards,
and refuse to be Inducted."
"The Resistance" Is published
by an ad hoc committee of the
same name formed to organize
these demonstrations throughout
the country. The committee has
Its headquarters In New York
City.
Deferments could be called a
tactic of the selective service
system. As General Hershey
said: "The psychology of granting
wide choice under pressure to
take action Is the American or
indirect way of achieving what
is done by direction In foreign
countries where choice Is not
permitted,"
Some of the slogans of the
draft resistance are, "End the
Draft and Free All Draftees,"
"Fight for Your Own Humanity," and "Not With My Life
You Don't."
