Sports Editor
A person often doesn't realize what's happening
until. it has happened. I have learned a lot as sports
editor,- but unfortunately I have learned through retrospect. My main desire as sports editor has been
to aid In improving any and all activities related to
the athletic program at this university. I was privileged to possess the instrument necessary in making
the university community aware of these activities.
Whether I have used this instrument well is questionable, but I do feel that all praise given was deserved
while ail criticism was sincere.
Originally, I pictured the athletic administration
as well as the school administration as being the
roadblock to the expansion of the university sports
program. By looking back at the Improved sports
program, and by looking ahead at the future sports
program, I realize my error. Not enough can be said
concerning Dr. Werner's unending efforts at making
sports at this university equal to its academic rating. President Collins too has been an advocate of
an expanding sports program.
Expansion Is, as*It is In professional sports, the
key word in a description of the university athletic
program. The faculty has grown In the past three
years with an excellent crop of young sports mentors. Our track will be ready in the spring. Soccer,
cross-country and baseball are on the new campus.
Our long awaited gym will soon be ready. The basketball team has practiced there; the swimming pool
Is finished; a wrestling match is scheduled to be
held there, tomorrow I Swimming, track and field,
and fall baseball have been added to the schedules. A
most successful cross-country invitational has been inaugurated, while a wrestling tourney has been continued.
Schools larger than all the Podunc States we are used
to playing have been added to the sports schedules.
Scholarship limitations are the only things which separate this university from big-time prestige.
It is with great pleasure that I may admire this
university's athletic growth, and it is with great regret that I pass down this tool of communication. I
am confident, however, that Dune Nixon's craftmanship can aid in molding this university's greatly
expanding program.
Grapplers' Victory
by Tom Nixon
During the past week, the Great
Danes wrestling team recorded
its first victory, but also suffered Its fourth defeat of the season.
On Tuesday, the grapplers
traveled to Brooklyn Poly where
they gained a 33-10 decision.
On Saturday, however, they were
defeated by Plattsburgh by a
score of 25.8. As a result of
these two matches, their record
now stands at one win and four
losses.
In amounting 33 points against
Brooklyn, the Great Danes gained six pins and one decision. Roger Gorham recorded the fastest
pin as he forced the shoulders
of his opponent to the mats In 1:30.
BUI Russell, who was replac.
lng the Injured Eric Watts In the
123-pound division, started the
match with a pin as he put his
man away In 2:42. Alex Domkowskl, who was also wrestling for
the first time, followed Russell
victory with a 4-1 decision over
Culllgan of Brooklyn. Bill Clark,
In the 130 weight class, raised
his season record to 3-1 as he
galned'a forfeit victory.
The next three weight divisions
were all won by pins for Albany
as Fran Weal pinned Abraml In
1:55 In the 145-pound division,
Craig springer put away Mayer
In 6:20 at 152 pounds, and Frank
Berry defeated Dancak by pinning him In 5:40. At 167, Marshall Gladstone suffered the only
loss for an Albany wrestler as
he was pinned In 4:40. Roger
Gorham then finished out the
scoring for Albany with his pin.
At the heavyweight division, Albany forfeited as Roger Saul,
who was at the spot transferred at the end of the first semester.
Against Plattsburgh, the only
winners for Albany were Bill
Clark and Roger Gorham who
both recorded decisions In their
respective
weight divisions.
Clark defeated Feeley by a 5-3
score and Gorham outscored
Fradenburg 13-5.

the new gymnasium.
Danes Win Skein At Nine;
Hobart Here Tomorrow
by Dan Opptdlsano
With a possible NCAA berth
waiting In the wings, the highflying Albany State Great Dane
basketeers, their win streak now
at nine, are home for the first
Urn* in a month tomorrow night
against always tough Hobart College at 8:30 p.m. at the Cardinal
McCloskey High School gymnasium.
ID games since last writing,
the Purple and Gold has upped
Its record 'to 12-3, defeating In
succession Southern Connecticut,
88-80; HIT, 103-86; Stony Brook,
64-52; Potsdam, 74-63; and Harpur College, 75-60; lastTuesday,
the 200th win In Coach Dr. Richard Sauers' Illustrious thirteen
year career.
Due to the Installation of the
bleachers, the new gym will not
be ready to hold any home games
this season. Consequently, the
Siena game which was originally
scheduled for Saturday, February
17, has now been moved back to
Monday, the 19th at 8:00 p.m.
Hobart comes into the Albany
game with a deceiving 5-7 record.
Losers of three games by three
points or less, the men from
Geneva, N.Y. are led by 6*6,'
sophomore Carmen Genovese
who Is currently averaging over
22 points a game. Terry Hatmaker, a 6'4" Junior Is Hobart's
second leading point producer
at 17.4 ppg.
But the main attraction, as
usual, will be the shooting ability
and aggressiveness of the Danes,
currently averaging 83.3 points
a game as compared to 73.3 for
Its opponents. Rich Marglson,
Albany's bonaflde Little AllAmerica, leads his team in scoring at 22.2 ppg. The 6'1" Junior
dominates the area's major college statistics In that he leads
the area In scoring and Is second
In field goal percentage, free
throw percentage, and rebounding.
Backing up Marglson in the
Albany attack Is Scott Price, who
is the area's no. 1 rebounder
(10.7 a game) besides ripping
the cords at 16.7 a contest.
Jim "Super Sub" Caverly's
play has also been a big help in
the recent Dane drive. Caverly
leads area scorers In field goal
percentage (.559) and has come
off the bench consistently to spark
late drives. In the Potsdam game
last Saturday, the 6' Junior tallied
12 of Albany's 13 points within
five minutes as the locals widened their margin over the Bears
from two-points to eleven. Jim
finished the evening with 18
markers, hitting on nine of 12
field goal attempts and grabbing
13 rebounds.

Intramurals Go Extra,
Tri-City 4 Compete
Intramurals will be going extramural this year, and Intercollegiate rivalries will be enhanced. The Inter-Collegiate

In each school will compete
against each other.
Among the sports to be played In this program will be basketball, bowling, track, Softball,
tennis, and perhaps swimming
and Ice hockey. Next year, football, soccer, handball, and volley ball will be added to the
program.
Central Council has passed a
budget for this program which
will exceed $300, the money going
for transportation, offlcatlng,
and trophies. In addlton, bowling games as well as bowling
sanction will be covered by this
sum.

Deferments,
DrugProblem
Conf. Topics
Dr. Clifton C. Thome, Vice
President for Student Affairs,
answered questions on drug problems
and student deferments
Monday at the President's Conference in the absence of Dr.
Evan R. Collins, who was attending a meeting with Chancellor
Gould.
When questioned on whether
or not a student caught using
narcotics on campus would be
reported to the civil authorities,
Thome replied, "Yes." He continued by citing as an examplean
Incident which had occurred.
Last year there were several
student complaints about narcotic
users. The University staff explored all possibilities to discover the facts, but was unable
to solve the dilemma. 'Then,
and only then, we called in the
New
York State Narcotics
Bureau."
The narcotics experts were
unable to catch "the two people"
concerned in the act. However,
during the Investigation one flunked out and the other dropped out.
Dr. Thorne continued by pointing out that if an R.A. found
marijuana in a room, he must
report it to his superior, who In
turn would contact civil authorities.
"If we see illegal activity, we
must do something about It,"
Thorne reiterated. However, he
went further to declare that "No
undercover agent will be allowed
on this campus without the approval of the Faculty and Student governments. This measure
would only be taken If the situation became severe."
Comments were also made by
Dr. Thorne concernlngtherecent
discontinuation of occupational
and graduate student deferments.
He cited the report of Dean Edgar
Flinton of Graduate Studies. This
report stated that 50 per cent of
the 1968 graduates will not apply
to graduate school or complete
grad school. Also, 25 per cent of

Chancellor Speaks
On Dope, Athletics
SAMUEL B. GOULD, Chancellor of the State University of
New York system, spoke to the presidents of the student
governments of University system colleges last week, on
narcotics, athletics and student tax.
"Students just don't care about
their student government. Fear
of Involvement," said Douglas
Upham,'Is a major factor contributing to Inactivity In government."
"Even wltliln student government people will give up some of
the power they can exorcise."
"Students are not really that
concerned oven about things they
agree with." Upham used Women's Hours and the liquor policy
to Illustrate his statement. He
said those policies were given
Impetus by the administration
and upper echelons of Central
Council, not by the students themselves.
Speaking at the seminar on
student rights Sunday, Upham
brought out the point that the
rules of conduct, as explained In
Student Guidelines, are not
specific enough.
In reference to the Waterbury
case Involving five freshmen
boys, he said that perhaps spedflc rules concerning student behavior might have been bene-

Samuel B. Gould, Chancellor
of the State University of New
York, recently discussed future
athletic policy and Issues confronting the Statewide University
system emerging from the recent narcotic raid at Stonybrook
University on Long Island at his
general meeting with student
leaders.
Chancellor Gould met with the
Student Association Presidents
of the four university centers
and representatives of the four
year colleges and Community colleges on Feb. 15, Thursday, at
his home In Albany, discussing
this Issue.
Expressing concern over the
ramifications that the raid might
have on the growth and expansion
of the entire University system,
he cited two prime Issues emerging.
One problem is the question of
whether the University Is making
it difficult for law enforcement
agencies to Investigate those
students in violation of existing
laws. A second consideration concerns the belief by many lndlvl-

Vice President of Student Affairs, Clifton C. Thorne, said
that if you enumerate some tilings
specifically, you may leave out
others just as Important. For this
reason general or fundamental
rules are more encompassing.
Thorne also said that general
rules offer more flexibility and

the student may consider the University In loco parentis.

of the reasons on-campus students do not have as many rights
as those off campus, "It Is only
recently that the on-campus student Is coming to enjoy some of
the rights of the off-campus students,
In reference to this point
Thorne said that the University
is responsible (to the State) for
what happens on campus.
Jankowsky explained that an

bate. Together the bill and procedures represent a comprehensive revision of the old election bill and make a considerable number of changes.
In the new bill, the Myskanla
screening committee was enlarged to Include the chairman
of Pan Hellenic Council and the
chief justice of the Supreme
Court. All Juniors were eliminated from the committee In the
new bill Including the President
of the Junior Class.
A person who is recognized
as the equivalent of a second
semester Junior by the University, who is participating in an
affiliated program of study at
another university, may run for
MYSKANIA providing he pays
his student tax for the semesters
affected.
In Who's Who elections, first
semester transfers and freshmen cannot vote. The screening
committee for Who's Who is
similar to that of MYSKANIA
except that the President of the
Junior Class Is Included and
all seniors are eliminated from
the committee.
The new bill includes a provision that LAAC elections will
be regulated under the same
conditions as Council elections,
LAAC and the other commissions are given total autonomy
In determining the composition
of their boards.
The new bill also provides
for replacement and run-off elections and write-in votes (except in MYSKANIA and Who's
Who elections whore write-ins
are invalid.) In the case of writeins, no candidate shall be considered elected until Election
Commission certifies that he
meets the qualifications

The election procedures go
into great detail concerning the
duties and responsibilities of
Election Commission, self nominating procedures, and the composition, printing, distribution,
collecting and storage of ballots.
They allow for the use of computerized ballots and voting ma-
chines. The procedures Involved
in voting, staff, processing of
voters and tabulation are spelled out In detail.
In the case of Irregularities
the Commission may ask the
Supreme Court or a lower court
with sufficient Jurisdiction to invalidate an election and mandate
a new one. The Commission by
a 2-3 vote of its membership
may also ask Council to censure an individual for Interfering with an election.
The election bill Is the first
by-law of Student Association and
thus requiring a2—3vote of Council for amendment or repeal.
The election bill was Introduced as a by-law In order to give
tho Supreme Court ' broader
Jurisdiction when deciding cases
of constitutionality. This problem was noted by President Jeffrey Mlshkln, the chairman of
the Ad-hoc Judiciary Committee, during their deliberations
duals outside the University that
already existing University regulations are not being enforced.
This not only Includes the use
of marijuana, LSD and narcotics
on campus, but also the violation of other University prohibited activities. Although Important, he felt that the Issue of
marijuana on campus Is now a
secondary
consideration. Of
more immediacy and seriousness
is the threat of financial penalties In the form of cuts in University budgets.This will severely limit University growth and
expansion, according to Chancellor Gould, at a very crucial
time.
,
Under the pressures of Investigation by a Legislative committee Chancellor Gould believes these questions
must
first be answered. Public pressure Is also present.
Attending the meeting, Jeffrey
Mlshkln, president of Student
Association on campus, stated
that Chancellor Gould believed
firmly In local autonomy of
each University center. He further stated that It has been Chancellor Gould's attempt to give
each University center discretion in making decisions. The
central office serving primarily
as an Instrument of distributing
general guidelines for policy.
Student participation in formulating policy was cited by
Mlshkln as a second goal of
Chancellor Gould. But recent
events at stonybrook have seriously challenged both of these
goals. Both the public and state
legislature may now question the
validity of these goals.
Mlshrln also cited that the issue of marijuana and narcotics
on campus Is still an Important
issue. But, in concurrence with
Chancellor Gould, he believes the
priority of questions concerning
the possibility of the hindrance
of law enforcers by the University must be considered first.
Also present Is the question dealing with the possibility of laxity In enforcing already existing University regulations.
The dangers of a breakdown
in communication between the
University Community and the
outside community must be
avoided, according to Mlshkln.

Preregistration
Undergoes
Revision
. Dr. Clifton C. Thome announced at Monday'! President" s Conference that the University haa
decided to institute a new procedure of advisement and proregistration tor Fall 1968.
The decision came about after
much investigation and discussion with members of the faculty.
The new system of preregistration will be on an alphabetical
basis. Thome questioned this
new system by saying "I've always been In favor of giving
priority to seniors and then to
underclassmen."
Thome also pointed out that
the dilemma of preregistration
systems Is faced by many collegs. "If some one could devise
a workable system of preregistration he would be set for life."
Under the new system of advisement, a student has the opportunity to see his advisor twice.
The first meeting Is designed to
direct the student toward the
necessary courses for the coming semester. The second meeting prepares the student for preregistration.
Under the new University system students whose last name begins with the letter "K" may begin to draw class cards on Monday, April 8. No student will be
admitted
to
preregistration
prior to the date specified for
his letter of the alphabet.
A list of the courses to be
taught In the Fall Is available
from the Registrar. The complete schedule, showing days,
times, rooms, etc., will not be

Teachers Draft Counseling
Formation Explained
The Teachers Draft Counseling Committee has been meeting
since late November to "study
the draft law and to explore the
moral and ethical Issues" that
confront the students. The Committee was formed to provide
students with information about
all legal options under the draft
law and offer sympathetic counseling about those policies.
The Committee in no way officially represents the University or its policies. It Is simply a
group of Individuals who offer
serious philosophical discussion
There are several misconceptions about the committee which It
feels must be clarified. First,
the members of the Committee
are not in any uniform way "opposed to the draft." They merely feel a common concern for
students who are confused by a
dearth of Information on the legal
aspects of the draft.
Second, It Is misleading to
refer to the Committee as an
"organization." The members,
"drawn together by a strong,
mutual concern," found it necessary and convenient to call meetings and adopt an Identifying
title. Only In this respect can
the Committee be called an "organisation."
Third, the word "counsel" Is
also grossly misunderstood. The
Committee does not attempt to
persuade students to follow a
certain course, but to understand themselves and their op-
tlons. "Counseling Is likelier to
dissuade than It is to promote
defiance of the law."
It must be understood that
"faculty wishing to serve as
draft counselors forfeit none of
their civil and professional rights
and obligations. The Trustees'
Policies
explicitly guarantee
them their rights to support
their moral and political convictions and use any lawful means
of persuading other citizens to
agree with them."

by Janie Samuels
A two year Master's Degree
program in Rehabilitation Counseling- is currently under way
under the auspices of the Department of Guidance and Personnel
Services In the School of Education.
„
,
Rehabilitation Counseling Is a
recognized occupation which offers trained counselors opportunltles for assisting disabled
persons —physically, emotionally, mentally and socially — with
their personal, occupational and
social adjustments. The role of
the "Rehap Counselor" overlaps
with other counseling profession,
als such as the social worker,
the psychologist, or the clergy.
The aim of the present program Is to train a "generallst"
In Rehabilitation Counseling
rather than limit the student's
experience to a particular disability group or to a specific
counselor role. Dr. Sheldon
Grand, Director of the program,
emphasises the "clinical and
counseling orientation" of the
Albany curriculum. However, the
student Is provided with a broad
range of knowledge which allows
for greater freedom in choosing
a job following training.
Aside from the traditional
counselor role, a variety of
opportunities exist for the Rehap
Counselor. These Include the programmer who serves as a coordinator of the various community devices that may benefit
the disabled client; the Job placement officer; and the vocational
evaluator who works In the Rehabilitation Center or workshop
and assesses the vocational liabilities and assets of the client.
Eleven full-time students are
currently working toward their
60 hour MA degree In Rehabilitation Counseling here at Albany.
Because of the critical shortage
of Rehap Counselors, the program Is supported via grants
from the Department of Health,
Education, and Welfare. Washington provides stipends of $1800
and an exemption tuition and fees
for first year students. Second
year students receive a stipend
of $2000 and similar exemptions.
Two kinds of course content
are emphasized in this MA program: a basic academic curriculum and a professional curriculum. Classwork Is heavily
psychologically oriented. Thirty
hours of "non-Rehap courses"
which aim to form a theoretical
basis for the students' needs
are provided by an Interdisciplinary faculty from the Psychology Department the Educational
Psychology Department, the Guidance Department, and the School
of Social Welfare. These Include
such courses as Statistics,
Learning, Theories of Personality, and Group and Communlty Organization Concepts.

Sanatation Strike
Elicits Response
The sanitation strike that New
York City has Just endured has
elicited mostly negative
responses at the Capitol. Most
legislators were quite disturbed
by Governor Rockefeller's Interventlon In the strike.
Opposition came from up-state
Republicans who abhor strikes by
public employes. Sen. Majority
Leader Earl W. Brydges (R.
Niagara Falls) considers these
strikes as Insurrections.
Sen, Brydges attacked Mayor
John Lindsay's handling of the
strike on the floor of the Senate
and stated that Lindsay was trying to take credit for Its ending
when Rockefeller ready deserved
it.
Brydges stated that the Sanitation Union broke the Taylor Law,
which forbids strikes by public
employes, but that they were paying for It In the loss of checkoff
privileges, a stiff fine, and imprisonment of their President,
John DeLury.
The Assembly and Senate have
both refused to take action on the
Governors' bill, as of press
time. This bill would allow the
state to step In when a strike
results in a health hazard, and
would employ those usually employed by the city to alleviate
the hazard in this case the garbage collectors.
j.
These employes would receive
the same wages and all the benefits under their regular contract
and the cost would be charged to
the city. If the city could not pay
the cost In the present fiscal
year, the state would advance
the
money and deducting the
amount from the next year's
state grant to the city.
Public reaction to the Governor's intervention has been
rapid and harsh. The mall of
most legislators Is highly critical of the. Governor. One Capital
secretary
stated that she has
received only one pro-Rockefeller letter.
The Governor has also incurred the wrath of nearly all
the newspapers In the state. Republican leaders out of state
have also expressed disagreement. Gov. Ronald Reagan of
California stated that Rockefeller has destroyed the principle
of home rule by his actions in
the strike.
Others have accused him of
creating disrespect for law and
order. The charge of playing
politics for the Presidential
nomination was also levied
against the Governor,

"We submit that the Dow Chemical Corporation, manufacturer

ciples to which this university

We submit that the Dow Corporation should not have the right

that only a debate or discussion
on the use of naplam would be
acceptable as an exercise in

We further submit that should

Bank Receives
Research Grant
Dr. Shelton Bank, associate
professor of chemistry at the
University has received a $23,400
grant from the National
Science Foundation for research
entitled, "Reduction and Addition Reactions of Aromatic
Radical Anions."
Bank, who Joined (tie University faculty In 190C, long has
been Interested In the chemistry
of the highly reactive Intermediates which have been studied
rarely.
They have, according
to Bank, a considerable synthetic potential as the reactions
are remarkably selective. Preparation of the anions Is simple
and their yields with a given
substrate are often high.
The grant, given for a twoyear period ending Deceniher
31, 1969, provides for the
salaries of two graduate assistants.

A statement In the pamphlet.
"Join the Brown and Gold Rush,"
a fraternal rush lxmklet put out
by STB, has caused some questions about the fraternities affiliation with other fraternities
about the state. To answer these
questions William Cleveland,
president of STB, has written
the following letter.
To all male rushees:
At this lime I feel it Is Imperative that we clear up a possible misunderstanding resulting from an article In the pamphlet "Join the Brown and Cold
Rush." The Brothers of Sigma
Tail Beta do not want to create
any false Impressions — be they
good or bad — to do so we feel
would not be In the keeping with
the spirit of fair rushing as outlined in the I.F.C. Rush Rules.
The point we wish to clarify
concerns the statewide "association" of Slg Tau. On October 8,
1953 the Board of Trustees of
the State University of New York
passed a resolution concerning
affiliation "with any national or
other organization outside the
particular unit." Such affiliation
Is not permitted by the Board's
resolution.
We feel that the process of exchanging Ideas Is a most beneficial educational experience.
This Is the aim of our "association"
and through correspondence and visits to other Slg
Tau's we have picked up Invaluable Information concerning
programming, rushing, pledging, and other fraternal activities. There Is no formal affiliation among the groups — nor
can there be. It Is strictly forbidden by the 1953 Board of
Trustee's resolution. We plan
to cultivate this concept of exchanging ideas as being beneficial for the growth and maintenance of all groups concerned. In
this sense the spirit of "Slg Tau"
runs high.
Thank you for your attention;
I hope this will clarify a somewhat confusing Issue,
Very truly yours,

Part Of Service
For Peace Corps
A special program combining
graduate agricultural studies
with Peace Corps service will
be started next fall on the University of California Campus at
Davis.
Beginning next September, nine
months of graduate study will
be offered, Including one month
of intensive language training and
followed by two years of service as a Peace Corps Volunteer.
The first group will be assigned to India where the Peace
Corps has Its largest agrlculture program, consisting of about
1,000 volunteers. Most of the
volunteers ace liberal arts graduates given special Intensive agriculture training in a specific
skill such as crop production
or poultry raising.
Those who go through the CalDavls program will be assigned
to agricultural colleges in India
to work with their research and
extension staffs. They will carry
on adoptive research and demonstrations of appropriate agricultural practices as well as assist
farmers by introducing progressive agriculture methods.
Applicants must meet the standards of both the Peace Corps
and the graduate division of the
University of California College
of Agriculture and Environmental Science at Davis.
In addition to students with degrees In agriculture or a science, liberal arts graduates with
strong backgrounds In science or
agriculture, are also eligible the
Peace Corps said.
The program at Cal-Davis will
count toward a graduate degree
In such fields as agricultural
economics and management,
animal sciences, international
agricultural development, plant
sciences and protection, and soil
and water sciences.
The Peace Corps will pay for
the Instructional costs, provide
a subsistence allowance for the
third quarter of study at the
university.
Loans, scholarships and tel.
lowshlps are also available, the
agency said.
Application forms may be obtained from the International Agricultural Institute at Cal-Davls
and must be filed by May 1 of
this year.

Ivy Schools Dominating
In Rhoads Scholarships
WHY CAN'T ALL the lights stay up like this?

Dope, Athletics Confronted
By Gould At Conference
(Cont'd from Page I)
communications between each
University center and the Board
of Trustees of the State University system Is another problem.
Mlshkln stated that "in my
opinion, the University Council
will be reluctant to approve any
further liberalization In this time
of stress."
The policy governing the conduct of physical education and
athletic programs at state-operated campuses was also discussed at the meeting. At their meeting on Nov. 9, 1967, the State
University Trustees adopted a
policy concerning this aspect of
University life for the 1968-69
academic year.
Concerning
Intercollegiate
athletic activities, the Board of
Trustees decided that "the University shall devote to Intercollegiate athletic activities a share
of Its total financial resources
proportionate to the best Interests of all students In the threeday program of physical education, recreation, and athletics,"
In a later memorandum sent
out from the Office of the Chancellor to Presidents of the State
University of New York on Dec.
26, 1967, It was further explained that " . . . It may be possible
In the future to gain complete
financial support for the Intercollegiate athletic program."
However, It was stressed that
for the present "It Is not realistic to submit supplemental budgets to cover the complete cost
of athletic programs, given the
current gap between State Income and expenditure."
At the recent meeting
of
Chancellor Gould and Student
leaders, Dr. Boyer, vice chancellor for University - Wide Activity, refused to be pinned down
on this topic. Mlshkln stated that
"he refused to be pinned down,
but Intimated for the fiscal year
1966-69 that the State University
would not be assuming any financial burden for the athletic
program."
A third topic discussed at the
meeting was the explanation why
student tax may not be made
mandatory, Under present state
law any fees made by the University must go to the General
Income fund of the State University.
The General Income fund Is
under the control of the Controller of New York State. If
student tax was declared a fee,
students would lose all autonomy of spending.
According to Mlshkln, we are
comparatively In better shape
In amount of funds available for
student activities than other
University centers. He felt that
many Student Association Presidents would like to see the law
changed In regard to putting
all fees under the category of
General Income fund.
However, Chancellor
Gould
felt this would be futile at the
present time.

BRANCH 1<
(CPS) Last December, when
the names of the winners of the
1967-68 Rhodes Scholarship competition were announces, It turned out that half the 32 recipients
came from 4 schools, Harvard,
Yale, Dartmouth and Princeton.
These Ivy League schools made
a much stronger showing than
they had a year before, but a
study ofthe history oftheScholarshlps shows that the Ivy schools,
particularly Harvard, Yale, and
Princeton have dominated the
program since Its Inception In
1903. The question Is why?
The Scholarships, which finance two years of study at Oxford College in England for each
recipients, are the most prestigious by far of the awards available
to college graduates In this country. A Rhodes is widely regarded
as a ticket into the Establishment.
The head of the Rhodes trust
In this country Is CourtneySmith,
also the president ofSwarthmore
College. In 1960, Smith wrote
an article for the American Oxonian, a bi-monthly magazine for
American Rhodes scholars, In
which he gave five reasons for
the dominance of certain Ivy
League schools.
These reasons are: 1) These
schools are of high quality 2)
they attract the best students
from all over the country (the
students can apply for scholarships from their own home town
selection committee) 3) they have
close student-faculty relations
(applications are given aid and
encouragement, and detailed Informative letters are written
about them) 4) the schools rely to
a large extent on seminars and
tutorials (giving the students
more ability to talk and handle
Ideas than they would get from
large lecture courses) and 5)
the schools have a strong tradition of encouraging Rhodes applications.
Whether or not Smith's reasons
for the Ivy dominance of the
Rhode's program are valid, It Is
clear that the state colleges and
universities have been at the
opposite end of the Rhodes' spectrum from the Ivy League
schools.
Although more than 60 per
cent of all college students now
graduate from state-supported Institutions, their share of the
Rhodes' Scholarships has been
and still Is minimal. This past
year, state university students
won 7 out of 32 scholarships.
An estimation has been made
that a Rhodes' applicant from an
Ivy League school or one of the
service academies has a 1 In 250
chance of winning a award. A
candidate from a state university has 1 chance in 48,000.
One belief is that many students shy away from applying
because they believe the competition is too hard, and others
who might otherwise apply, can't
because they're married.
Several State University students who have applied In the
past have come back feeling that
the Ivy League candidates were
no brighter, but more polished.
It Is felt by some state University Rhodes' representatives,
that the product that comes out of
the private schools has the opportunity to be coached, and to get
help In writing his application.
Whether or not thebad showing
made by the State Universities is
a result of deficiencies In the
Rhodes' program, It doesn't ap-
Tutoring Program
Aids Disadvantaged
by Richard Hancock
The "Project
on Education of the Disadvantaged Is convinced that each one
that attends high school does not
have an equal opportunity to get
into college and, not only convinced, Is determined to do something about It.
In part the project Is funded
by the federal government and
works with local school administrators,
supervisors,
and
teachers, but perhaps the most
important branch is the A.c.E.
tutoring program which works
with the high school student himself.
Action for Cultural Enrichment (ACE) was formulated on
the premise that boys and girls
from a lower socio-economic
background fall to get Into college, not because of a lack of
Intelligence or ability, but a lack
of cultural opportunities and experiences.
Even I.Q. tests assume a minimum and, lnfortunately for these
high school students, at the present a mlddleclass culture base.
For this reason, ACE tutors have
the dual responsibility not only
to tutor In specific subjects, but,
as much as possible, to expand
the horizons of his not-so-muchyounger students, to help them
to Interact (perhaps for the first
time) In organized social activities, and to Inspire in them an
Interest in education beyond Just
passing.
This could never be accomplished by remote control, but
only on a personal, or as nearly
personal as possible basls.ACE
believes that there Is no substitute for a one-to-one relationship of openness and trust between student and tutor.
This Is far from an easy task.
First, there Is not much time
(only one or two hours out of
the afternoon twice a week, and

Beckett's Godot
Dr. William Alfred, professor
of English at Harvard University and author of the off-Broadway hit, "Hogan's Goat," will
lecture Thursday evening, February 29, at the University. Ills
topic will be "Tragic Concentration In Beckett's 'Waiting for
Godot'."
Professor Alfred will be the
third lecturer In the 1967-08
series sponsored by the department of English at the University. The event, open to the public, Is scheduled for 8:15 In the
Campus Center Assembly room.
"Hogan's Goat," which had an
off-Broadway run of more than
a year, Is scheduled to be filmed. Another work of Professor
Alfred, a translation of "Beowulf," has been published by
Random House Modern Library.

pear that the program is likely
to be revised.
The selection system tends to
perpetuate Itself because all
members of the district selection
committees are Rhodes scholars
except the chairman. It would be
surprising if the committees did
not lean to applicants who are
well-spoken and poised as they
themselves are.
Since Ivy League applicants,
for reasons already noted, tend to
possess these qualities, they consistently make the best Impressions on the selection committees.
If the state universities are
going to win a greater share of
the Scholarships, more effort on
their part might help. At Harvard,
each of the 10 undergraduate
houses have a Rhodes' representative, which f bvlously helps the
university as a whole get the
Scholarships.
In the long run though, It's
difficult to see how the Rhodes
Scholarships can be distributed
more freely unless the selection
method Is reformed.
for both student and tutor.)
And building such a relationship Is work, not physical labor,
but a particular kind of alertness that Is very demanding; demanding on the tutor, for he is
the one that must set the pace
and deliver the goods.
It Is he that must open himself to his student, make the program he presents meaningful to
him, and produce some visible
results. And building such a relationship is demanding on the
student, for this friendship must
be returned by him.
The student may or may not
be Inclined to do so, or may
(for some reason or another) be
afraid, or Just may not understand anything about friendship
on other than the most superficial level.
This Is the Ideal. The outcome
depends on the tutor, his imaglnatlon, his patience, trial and error
(but not too many errors or the
student will lose Interest), his
enthusiasm, the situation, and
perhaps most of all, his understanding of people, his Insight
into motives, reactions, and
dreams of the high schooler.
This Is a competition, a race
to be won, against time, against
deep-seated habits and attitudes,
against circumstances no two of
which can be alike or can be anticipated. The tutor will see just
how much Imagination, patience,
and perception he has.
He will learn from his fellow
tutors who are also competing.
And he will learn Just how much
he does care.
At present, over 30 students
are employed by the University
through work-study program, but
more are needed. If a University
student Is qualified and Interested
in the Important business of tutoring disadvantaged high school students, he may Inquire about project ACE at room 124 In the
Education Building.

proven research ability which has
been "published and subjected to
the criticism of his peers."
Third, he must be one of these
people "with an interest In crime
and the solutions to It."
The school bulletin stated that
"This program is necessarily
experimental. There is no exact
prototype on which to model, no
Council on Criminal Justice Education from which to seek advice." Precedents will iie established that' will be followed for
years to come.
The composition of the student
body, It Is hoped, will include top
notch students. Myren stated that
he is expecting an "International student body" to be attending
this school when plans are completed.
The New York City Police Department has made plans to send
a man on full salary, to study
here. Myren said he expected
80 per cent of the student body
to be new graduate students,
fresh from college, and 20 per
cent to be accomplished professionals, who wish to better
prepare themselves for their
positions in the system.
"An opportunity for young people to become Involved with one
of the most serious social problems of our time" Is what awaits
the prospective graduate student
who enrolls In the newly formed
School of Criminal Justice here
at the Unlverlsty, stated Richard
A. Myren, Dean of the School.
A school of Criminal Justice
was authorized for the State University of New York at Albany on
March 11, 1965, The Idea for
such a school had been under consideration for many years.
When this plan was originally
conceived, consideration was
given to placing the school In
one of the three other SUNY centers (Harpur, Stony Brook, Buffalo), but because of the huge governmental center here, the plans
were made with Albany In mind.
This past year, Dean Myren
was told to establish the groundwork for a school that would be
a high caliber graduate school.
He, along with five other professors, has spent the 1967-68
acadmelc year preparing for the
start of a functioning program,
by organizing course outlines
and doing additional research In
the criminal Justice field.
Among those considered to be
the finest minds In the field of
criminal Justice in the nation
have been invited here to assist
Dean Myren. Starting next year,
the school will be accepting its
first graduate students. According to Myren, the "School Is
heavily research oriented, with
an emphasis on the Ph.D. program, M. A. degrees will also be
granted.

New Registration
Once again this semester we find that
the administration has instituted a new
preregistration process in another attempt
to alleviate the mad rush of students to
grab seats in too few sections of too few
courses. The administration tries hard but
their newest proposal, we feel, is a step
In the wrong direction.
This new system allows all students to
complete academic advisement before any
class cards may be drawn, a very positive
move, but then negates this plus by setting
up an alphabetical plan for the drawing
of class cards. The plan favors the lucky
people with last names beginning with K
through approximately S and leaves the
others out in the "get signed in to closed
sections if you can" cold.
Chosen to eliminate the problem of
freshmen and sophomores closed out of
courses because they have been filled by
juniors and seniors, the system not only
fails to correct this problem but further
Increases the propabllity of juniors and
especially seniors being closed out of the
sections they have to take to graduate on
time.
Therefore we would like to suggest our
own preregistration plan:
1— draw up and issue the class schedule
during the middle of the second month of
the semester based on demand for courses
and other considerations based on data for
the previous semester.
2—allow four (4) weeks for academic
advisement before class cards may be
drawn.
3— have each advisor obtain from each
advisee an exact copy of his approved
schedule card with all information called
for filled In.
4— allow one (1) week for the tabulation of this data by class year and section number (employing secretaries and
faculty wives for this purpose (about 20
people In all,)
5— send tabulated data to departments
for any adding, dropping and enlarging of
sections deemed necessary and feasible
on the basis of this data (allow one week
for changes to be made, mimeoed, and
posted.)
6— open class card drawing according
to class ye,ar beginning with seniors,
juniors, etc., and according to major and
minor departments. Under this plan all
students would draw class cards first in
their major and minor fields,
7— open general class card drawing
to students in the following order:
freshmen and sophomores with open
^ ^ ^ y —
majors
all other sophomores
all other freshmen
all seniors
all juniors
8— open general card drawing to all
students for the final two days before
packet turn-in.
9— final packet turn-in one day after
the close of class card drawing.
In steps 6 and 7 class card drawings
would be open to each group mentioned
for approximately three (3) days.
This plan would not be fully effective
the first semester it was instituted,
especially in the case of the first step.
However, data collected through the students' class schedule cards would be used
the second semester of operation in making
up the class schedule. This would also
eliminate the need for many changes by
the departments after the schedule had
been published.
Dow On Campus
The request that the administration
bar Dow Chemical representatives from
recruitment on this campus is in direct
opposition to the rights and privileges
guaranteed under the "open campus"
policy of this university. This policy
includes the right of any student to meet
with any person of his choosing for any
legal activity.
The "open campus" also encompasses
the right to peaceful demonstration. Such
a demonstration, we feel, is one legitimate way of making one's feelings on
an issue known to the general public,
one way of making changes in disliked
situations.
In the case in point, however, the
change sought should not be in the liberal,
freedom
granting policy of the
"open campus" but in the operation of
the Dow Chemical and other war-oriented corporations. The destruction of a
basic freedom is an extremely high price
to pay for the remote possibility of convincing Doe to cease making napalm.
Through peaceful demonstration, concerned persons can bring this issue into
the public eye, convincing others of the
legitimacy of their complaint. If the recruiters were barred, there would be no
such demonstration, no broader scope
of concern would be possible, no further
pressure would be brought to bear on
Dow, and the company, and others like

to recruit employes. Such a development
would, In fact, hurt the cause of those
who wish to put an end to the manufacture of products like napalm,
General Lewie B. Herehy hae issued another directive
to all draft boards. This time the local boards have
been told that they no longer need defer graduate students (except those who will be pursuing medical or
divinity studies) nor the men who would have had
occupational defermenta. No one is calling the septuagenarian a fool now as they did several months ago,
mainly because this directive was not hie Idea; it was
the President's and the National Security Council's.
This action on the part of the National Security Council (of which the President i s a member), if combined
with the recent trend of the war In Vietnam, leads to
the logical end of calling up more men for duty in the
war torn land of Southeast Asia. If this assumption
proves true, then there are a lot of future dead war
heroes walking around this campus now.
Such a large increase, made possible by the new directive, would signify a condition of all out war. It would
be Interesting to see if the American people would support a large war that would not be fought for such ideals
as, "making the world safe for Democracy" or the preservation of our heritage. The war's justifications could
only be the "need" that the balance of power in Asia
must be maintained and that our national prestige upheld.
Is our prestige, let alone the Asian power balance,
worth the extra blood of escalation? It was not enough
of a reason for the French to continue fighting in 1954.
The call up of men by the National Security Council
should be used as a lever in peace negotiations rather
than as an attempt to escalate the war. This tactic should
have been used Christmas '66 when, according to Harrison Salisbury (who spoke at the University last March),
the North Vietnamese were trying to arrange peace talks.
It is too late now, when conditions in South Vietnam are
so bad that the Viet Cong are able to force the International Voluntary Services to cut its field staff from 150
to 30 or 35 by greatly reducing the areas where the volunteers can safely operate.
Although the graduate schools will be suffering from
a loss of "able bodied men" as long as the war continues
the men will not have to worry; the government will
help pay them to continue their education; if they
come back.

(for a change)
In the past, professors in the
Business Administration program have assigned such projects to their classes as investing money In stocks and bonds,
usually with tremendous success.
It seems that hardworking students, with text books and professors to guide them, are capable of making sound business
decisions,
Perhaps FSA could create
several assistantshlps In the
MBA (Master's) program for
part-time supervisory work In
the bookstore These students
could run the bookstore as a
class project, plotting flow charts

schedules for employes, and
plans for reduced pilferage.
Not only would these students
gain practical experience not
obtainable In the classroom, but
they might also Introduce some

the Institution with the proportionally highest percentage of

This year's Greek Week was
greatly Improved and supported
after last year's beginning. The
Chairmen hope to make Greek
Week 1969 an even greater success. Each event merits consideration.
The Concert Chairmen were

a group for a Concert scheduled
months In advance, until the Concert was at hand. Thank you to
Student Association for Its consideration.
The ISC-IFC Coker-Smoker

Ballroom was filled to capacity
for the Coker; the event was
well planned. (Well, guys, what

Greek Follies, the high-point
of the Week, received All-University support. Thanks to all
concerned for their contrlbutlons.

Review Of The New Right Wing
by Ray Bertrand
Opposing the draft is not an
evil, and I don't condemn advocates of selective service abolition. However, I deplore the fact
that state employees can openly
and Illegally advertise that they
can tell you how to beat the draft.
First of all, the money used
to feed SUNYA's faculty members' families, or whatever, Is
supplied by the state. This rash
comes from the people and Is
supposedly used In the best Interest of these people. At present, some members of the faculty seem to have taken It upon
themselves to define what Is
best for the citizens of New York.
Besides lack of Justice, a virtue which I have never accused
liberals of possessing, these faculty members also seem to be
lax In the conscience department.
If they fee! so strongly on those
Issues, which Is their right, let
them resign and accept their
paychecks from someone other
than those whom they are opposing, They appear not to mind that
the "enemy" Is paying them.
Related to this situation Is
whether or not we should liave
an "open" campus. By "open,"
liberals mean free to do anything. Aside from being ungrate,
fill to the citizens of the state,
these people are also Inconsiderate. As hippies walk around, contaminating the campus, they are
being subsidized by taxpayers.
These taxpayers are also the
people who vote representatives
Into office, and the representatlves express the will of their
constituents by passing laws. So
what do the students do? They
advocate the breaking of laws
. . . civil disobedience. The poor
things are so oppressed and
impoverished. While back home
In their pigpens, they save so
they can purchase some grass or
LSD. I don't want to say that Albany State should become a garrison state. What I propose Is a
publicly apolitical faculty and a
campus law against subversive
political groups, but not on every
campus. I don't care where degenerates protest, so long as It's
not state-owned.
Speaking of politically subversive groups, we've got some
wlng-a-dlngs on campus. SDS lost

wanted top billing over the student. The Committee sponsored
talks about the presidential candidates In 'OB. The closest thing
to a right-winger talked about

ought to take up the offer and
fight for hero Ho In Vietnam.
The foremost enemy of Communlsm and Fascism has always been the academic community. Academe has traditionally been the vanguard of liberty, for It realizes that there can
be no Intellectual freedom In an
atmosphere of fear. Therefore
It Is understandable that Hitler,
Stalin, and Mussolini felt compelled to seek the subjugation
of the campus-based community.
Americans have felt fairly secure In this area. In recent years
attacks upon the Intellectual community have been few and they
have not succeeded. But today
as in the early fifties the beacon called academe Is challenged.
In our own area an Assemblyman from Troy, Nell Kelleher, Is
the latest In a long chain of politicians to take on the university
community. He stridently demands that the State University
of New York deny the use of offices in public institutions (I.e.
SUNYA) to those professors engaged In draft counseling. In
other words, the honorable Mr.
Kelleher demands the dlsmls-
sal of these most courageous
members of our faculty.
Nell W. Kelleher Is no Hitler. Intact there are times when
his antl-Communlst exuberance
can be downright amusing. Last
Thursday night on the Eleventh
Hour News,
after hearing a
cogent and rational argument
by a young pacifist as to why
he could not serve in Vietnam,
Kelleher said: If you don't like
the system — I don't want to
use the word system, It's a
Communist word — then get outl
And he was serious.
a man cannot say whatever ne
wants to In Ms classroom without fear of retribution, then the
victory of the new Fascism Is
complete.
These faculty members who
are today challenged by these second rate politicians deserve the
support of every one' of us. The
question Is not whether you support the war in Vietnam; th»
question is whether you accept
the principle called academic
freedom. If the Issue Is patriotIsm, then who. are the patriots;
Nell Kelleher who Is still fighting the Bill of Rights, or the
Faculty Committee members who
stand strongly against the debilitating war and for the young
Americans who are so threatened by the murder lottery called
the draft.

Complaint
To the Editor:
I am writing to protest what
I consider to be abuses on the
part of the management of the
University Bookstore, In their
administration of what Is effectively a very comfortable monopoly on our campus. I donotwlsh
to become Involved In the controversy over their apparent preoccupation with deodorants and
beer mugslnpreferencetobooks.
I shall confine my complaints
to five.
First of all, in view of the
enormous volume of business the
Bookstore does, (evidencedby the
preposterously long lines that
their Incredible system of text
book distribution produces) I find
It difficult to believe that students should have to pay list price
for texts, without any discount
whatsoever.
Secondly, I fall to understand
how the management can be so
presumptuous as to ask the students to order books without
knowing the prices. Why are the
prices not listed along with the
titles and authors of the books?
My third complaint has been
mentioned, In passing, above. If
the Bookstore were really In
competition for patronage, I am
sure that they could find a better
system that which produced the
hours, literally hours, of waiting
In line to order books (some of
which wewerethen<oldwere"not
ln.»)
My fourth and fifth complaints
are the result of a rather widespread attitude on the part of
many on this campus. The attitude
is directed at the student body,
and Is captured In the statement,
"That's all right, they're only
students." The management of
the Bookstore has decided that a
student who has purchased a book
may not return the book unless he
can produce evidence from the
Registrar that he has dropped the
course. I would very much like
the Bookstore management to
show me a bookstore "on the outside" to which one cannot return
undamaged merchandise, within a
certain period of time, with only
a reasonable Justification and
without any notes from the
Registrar.
works. She makes a serious
mistake, however, when she
claims that we have cut down on
variety because variety doesn't
exist. On the contrary. We considered printing other poems,
short stories, essays, and even
another play, but to Include them
all In one Issue would skyrocket
publication costs and wreck our
budget. Due to the erratic collection and distribution of student
tax money (which supports "The
Word," among other things) we
are forced to limit the numbers
of'pages per Issue. As editors,
we chose to print that which we
felt best reflected the aim and
tone of our magazine. As a matter
of fact, we expanded this Issue
(and devestated our budget) In
order to Include the play
"Robert's Civil War."
Since the works are available
to the readers, It Is not a function of a reviewer to paraphrase
an article, that Is unnnecessary
verbiage. By definition, a critic's
function Is to come forth with
intelligent criticism. The ASP
literary critic seems to have
overlooked this concept. Although
some of the Issue was devoted
to an exploration of war —related themes, It was outrageous
of Miss Callo to ascribe Vietnam sentiments to pieces which
are not concerned with the war.
In addition, the "war efforts"
deal with other human themes.
None of our material was monothematic. A closer reading by
Miss Callo might have prevented
some of her more sophmorlc
comments. For Instance, "Robert's Civil War" deals with basic
father-son hate conflict, man's
existential condition, and erosion
of communication, as well as war.
"Eplthalamlum" expllclty devotes one line out of twentyone to war. We suggest you read
the poem to uncover It's real
concerns — we trust that our
readers are too sophisticated
to need our explanation.
We are not criticizing Miss
Calio's opinions, she Is certainly entitled to them. We doobject,
however, to her questionable
methods and her surprising lack
of factual Information, all the
more serious as she is an official
ASP spokesman.

Complaint
To the Editors:
Waterbury Hall Council would
like to register our strongest
protest over certain aspects of
bus service.
First of our concerns Is the
extreme Irregularity of bus service on Sundays particularly between the hours of 5 and 9. As
many students use the buses at
these hours to go out for their
Sunday evening meal, we feel
that service at this time should
be more regular, and that the
hours at which buses run on Sunday evenings should be clarified
for the student body.
Secondly, we. feel that extra
buses should be put In service on
nights when exams are given In
courses In which the freshmen
are enrolled. On Nov. 30 and Dec.
6, when evening exams were
given by the Chemistry and Biology departments, large numbers
of Alumni Quad freshmen were
stranded on the new campus waiting for the next bus because the
buses that were running would
not accommodate the number of
people who wanted to ride them.
We hope there will not be a
similar situation when the next
evening exams are given.
Finally, we would like a clarification of the hours of bus service on Friday and Saturday nights.
We would also liketoexpress our
concern over the curfew Imposed
on residents of the new campus
dating Alumni Quad residents.
Although there is no official curfew, there Is an effective one;
because there are no buses at
late hours on these nights, and
thus no transportation, these people must return to their hall with
the last bus run.

Solution To War
To tho Editor;
Tho war situation as It exists
today shows that prayers, demonstrations and vigils do not end

Wars have economic causes
and It Is the economic causes
that must be removed.
The present system of society,
capitalism, which is bused on
private property and classes, and
that produces the cause of war
must be ended and be replaced,
as the Socialist Labor Party
teaches, by the Socialist society
that gives everyone a stake In

Is for the acceptance of Social Ism
as the solution to war and the

Building Better Bridge
by Harry Nuekols
Today's hand Illustrates one
of the most Important principle's
for playing a hand—let the opponent's bidding work for you.
The hand was played In a sectional team-of-four match. The
bidding Is given as It took place,
and even though this writer was
Involved, I don't approve. But
then If it has not occurred, there
would be no story.
North's no trump was of the
weak variety, 12-14 points. South's
cue bid was meant as Staymen,
asking North to bid a four-card
major If he had one. The slam
was reached by pure momentum.
When the dummy came down,
South could see that the basic
problem was entries to the North
hand. Three were desirable. One
to finesse trumps, and two more
for successive
finesses
In
spades; but only two, the top
clubs, were available.
There was a chance that the
ten of hearts would turn Into
a third entry, and since drawing trumps was the first order
of business, South ruffed the
diamond opening in his hand and
played a club to dummy's ace.
The heart Jack was run through
East's king, and when It held,
the first hurdle had been cleared. Now, If East had started
with just two hearts, the extra
entry would materialize. So a
low heart was led from dummy.
East followed low. Well, you
cannot have everything. South's
queen won the trick and the last
trump was drawn with the ace.
Now South paused to collect
his Information. East had started with three hearts and most
likely, for his overcall, six (or
more) diamonds. To getafurther
count on the hand, South cashed
the club queen; East foUowing.
That gave East at least two
clubs, and, therefore, probably
two spades maximum. If one of
those spades were an honor,
only one spade finesse would be
needed.
So South entered dummy with
the remaining high club and led
the spade ten. East and South
played low, and West's queen won
the trick. The diamond return
was ruffed and South's ace of
spades brought down East's now
long king, and the slam was
home.
Notice that it does East no
good to cover the spade ten, for
then South wins and concedes a
trick to the queen, claiming the
balance.

There Is no purpose In saying anything more about Jake
Holmes, because I think that
Gary Gelt covered him quite
well In last Friday's ASP. Howaver, I do believe that the fine
musicians who backed him up
deserve some praise. If anything,
they made Holmes. Their professional showed through as they
were able to pick up and respond musically to Holmes'
lyrics and mannerisms.
Anyone who remained Thursday night, Feb. 15, can attest to
their lmprovlsatlonal abilities,
when the group, minus Holmes,

Ted, the guitar player, has to
be one of the "best" around. I
an firmly convinced he can do
anything from cool Jazz to psychedelia with his guitar.
The group has been together
for two months, which certainly
says something for their musical abilities. They are going
to cut a record In about six
weeks and if it Just showcases
their live performances, It will
sell.
The Coffee House Circuit began with an auspicious performance, and I hope it continues
in presenting such a high calibre of talent.
Although Jake Holmes can be
ngratulated, some of the lunklds who attend the unlver:ty deserved to be lashed. Never
nave I seen such Ill-mannered individuals. During any performance, the roar from outside

not impossible, to hear Holmes.
One would like to think that
people would at least have the
common courtesy to be quiet
so that those who did come to

these people not only spoiled

Big Names involved; and It Is

In the Art Gallery of the Fine
Arts Building. Compiled by
Donald Mochon, Director of the
Gallery, Thorn O'Connor, Associate Professor of Art, and Mrs.
Charles Llddle, Associate Director of the Gallery, the Invitational exhibition Is comprised of
94 prints by 47 artists from all
over the United States.
The prints present a broad
range of style and subject matter,
from the gay colours of Carol
Summers to the somber tones
of Thorn O'Connor. Summers's
colour woodcut "Fonte Limon"
was chosen for a purchase prize,
and will become part of the Art
Department's permanent collection. He was one of the first
prlntmakers to start working big
in the 1950*8, and he went on to
develop a very definite and personalized
techlnque. "Fonte
Limon" appears to be an abstract
landscape of appealingly warm
and vibrant colours which wrap
around the rice paper and come
up a floating orange and pink
rainbow and a mossy green mountain with violet velvet paths about
It. A sweet and winsome pink
heart, with all the splendour of
a mushy valentine, radiates Its
warmth from the center. Mr.
Summers is an excellent printmaker, and is able to control
the bleeding of the colours to
get Just the soft, free edges
he desires.
The composition
of his print is also quite well
planned, with paths of colour
drawing you from the edges to
the center. The curve of rainbow above also serves to contain the eye within.

whites. There Is no real composition, but Instead an overall mass of faces looking up at
something. The whole idea of
crowds brings with it thoughts
of fear and uncontrollablllty: the
amoeba-like form at Times
Square on New Year's Eve, a
trampling stampede at a cry of
"Flrel",
the
thrill-seeking
audience of a man on a ledge.
And Letter's crowd, looking up,
have a full range of emotions
on their faces— a flicker of
amusement here, the light of
fear or panic there, and patient
expectation on still another face.
They stare upwards—at what we
do not know—and as we watch
them, the blackness begins to
close In on us, and the anxiety
which flickers about the white
shining faces is communicated
to us, and we are drawn in.
Very hip, au courant elements
can be found in Ben Sakoguchl's
large etching, cryptically entitled
"Critic's
Choice or
Maybe Lament; Who CaresSweet
Nancy; Signed. Mad Magazine
Bosch." This print is filled with
minute details, cartoons; and a
variety of elements the meanings
of which are for the most part
rather evasive. A large patch of
design on one side Is underscored
with a quote from the Jefferson
Airplane record "White Rabbit;"
it says "one pill makes you larger
and one pill makes you small, and
the one that mother gives you
don't do anything at all. . .Ask
Alice when she's ten feet tall."
With one hang up—you have to
look In a mirror to read It.
Perhaps this Indicates the title
of Alice's book, "Through The
Looking Glass," which lends of
a rotation of fantasy to the interpretation of the blue etching.
Then, the first thing we are
confronted with are tiny soldiers,
dressing and hopping into toy
Jeeps and tanks, and a group
of naked, laughing little people
seated In a circle around a blank
sign.
Then there is a wall and on the
other side are hundreds of Nazi
soldiers, who, wearing masks,
look like they Just stepped off
a surrealistic 15th C. Hleronymus
Bosch canvas
(cf the title).
Moving towards the bottom
there are a silhouette. of Mary
Popplns, a cartoon tiger, a group
of Nazi soldiers carrying a dead
cardinal or pope, a picture of a
paraplegic schoolteacher in a
wheel chair, and Joseph Stalin
carrying his daughters in his
arms.
The whole
thing Is rather
annoying, for even after you are
able to decipher some of the elements and symbols, the overall
meaning (Jf there Is one)remains
distinctly Indistinct. The whole
thing seems a rather glorious,
horrible
game of wits and
doodles; maybe Sakoguchl is
showing us a reflection of our
ridiculous world, of ourselves,
and if it seems unpleasnat, perhaps the distortions are only
too painfully true.
The birds Patricia Benson
chooses for her engravings are
powerful ones— "Predator" and
"Vulture"—end their delicately
etched feathers and strong heads
reveal all the fearsome might of
these creatures. Again, in Miss
Benson, we find a master print
maker in the traditional style.
Ted Davies' colour wood cut
of the "Stock Market" i s a
black, white, and gold portrayal
of the economic heart of the
World. The gold highlights play
a two-fold role in the print,
signifying both the market's preoccupation with money and the
traditionalism of the Institution
Just as modern painters seem
to be working on larger and
larger canvases, some printmakers too, are exploring the
father bounds of their printing
presses. Big prints have a greater, more Immediate Impact, but
they often lose a great deal of
the intimacy that used to be associated with etchings and engravings.
What was a delicately carved
line has frequently become a
big slash, where there was a
small scene, there is now a big
red square and circle. This Is
not to say all prlntmakers have
gone in that direction—even in
the larger prints an intensity
beyond the possibilities of small
prints have been achieved.

The songs on the album are
different from the more usual
C 4 J tunes In that they Involve
more "protest," social comment, and satire.
Side two of the disc, "The
Progress Suite," Is composed
of five movements; Prologue,
Decline, Editorial, Fall, and Epilogue. The basic Idea of the
work Is trite; It concerns the
fall of modern man's civilization.
Its saving grace is the way
Jeremy Clyde has arranged the
melodies that he's written as
well as the melodies themselves.
"Decline" Is almost baroque in
moode and tone; even the Instrumentation approaches that period. Cleverly worked Into the
piece are sounds of the stock
market, noise of crowds, and
other sounds of our hectic, rushed
life. "Fall" ends with an atomic bomb explosion which says
Just about all that can be said
about "Fall." Throughout the
Suite you hear Clyde's melodies
which are tuneful, melodic, singable—it makes you regret that

have a chance as a single. "Epllogue" contains the "moral" of
the "Progress Suite," but even
so It's got a- good sound typically c & J.
"Rest In Peace" Is a tuneful knock at the dying business
(and funeral customs). It's about
a Memorial Maker named Matthew. His customers bring the
names of those they held dear
and now are actually glad
to
be rid of. The tone of
the song Is kept up with the
melody which at times has a
distinct church sound.
"Family Way" Is about being
in the family way when one Is
not supposed to be. It's done
tongue-in-cheek.
Other songs on the record are
done fairly \ oil also; In fact
the strength of the album lies
In Its melodies and Its arrangements, because the subject matter, for the most part, Is overused to a point where it Is no

The Fantasticks9 Opens On March 1
"The Fantasticks," a musical
parable about love, opens Friday
evening, March 1 in the Campus
Center Ballroom. The show will
run for eleven performances:
March 1 to March 4 and March 7
to March 11.
Curtain time on Saturday evenings is at 7:00 and 10:00 p.m.
All other performances will begin
at 8:30 p.m. with the exception
of the Sunday and Monday(March
11) shows, which will begin at'
7:00 p.m.
The Campus Center Ballroom
has been converted into a theater
in order to house the show. Seating Is limited to only 150 people
per performance and seven rows.
The small audience will help
visual and auditory perception.
An entire lighting system is also
being Installed, under the direction of Eileen Demlng, to improve viewing.

Carney, a freshman from lllon,
New York, gave a particularly
excellent performance In the
freshman skit "Damn It."
Charles Bartlett Is the narrator and the role of the mute Is
filled by Kenneth Fisher. Edward
Spence portrays Hucklebee, John
Webb Is Bellomy, Robert Clayton

Terry is the man who dies.
Has Simple Story
The story of "The Fantasticks" Is very simple and deals
with children and their fathers.
The children, Matt and Luisa, are
in love; however, their fathers
wish to have them go "out of
their minds with love." Therefore, the fathers make elaborate
plans to no avail and the children
find out that love comes only
after experience. As the lyrics
to the hit song "Try To Remember" says: "without a hurt,
the heart is hollow."
The director of the show feels
that "The Fantasticks" is different from the vast majority of
musicals produced today. "The
Fantasticks" has absolutely no
scenery to speak of. The people
in it are realistic and at the
same stylized. The play is also
played very closely to the audlence, with the cast speaking to
the spectators at various points
In the show.
When the characters are not
"talking their case" to the audience, they still keep the audience especially in mind. Each
actor considers the audience as
a friend and gives a speech directly to the audience upon his
first entrance.
Ellis Kaufman, producer of last
year's production of "Carnival"
and co-director of "Sideshow," Is
directing "The Fantasticks."

performances In many university
productions. He has also been

game on Tues. Feb. 13. Unfortunately for the women of Albany,
they were defeated for the first

feating New Paltz 25-23 in overtime. The score was tied 20-20
at the end of the regulation time.
Albany was able to win in overtime by maintaining control of
the ball.
Both of the Saturday games
were team efforts. There was
good defense and the team played well as a whole. There were
two outstanding players for Albany. They were guards, Jamie
Gearon and Gloria Mazure. Both
girls were defensively alert,
making several Interceptions, as
well as controlling most of the
jump balls. There was not a high
scorer for Albany.

APA HAS JUMPED INTO THE lead in League IB.
Frosh Top Siena 77-68,
Fall To Two Others
The freshmen have finally
given signs of coming of age, and
If the Hartwlck game can be
brushed aside as a total disaster,
the team can be looked on as
a rather solid one which still
makes some basic, needless mistakes.
At Fulton Montgomery, the
frosh were once again hit with
an horendous first half, shooting
only 23 per cent from the field.
They were also gettingbeatbadly
off the boards. This combined
with Fulton Montgomery's hot
shooting put the frosh 16 down
at the half. However, just as
regularly as the frosh have had
terrible first halves shooting 51
per cent. Albany came back with
a good second half, to within five
points with three minutes left,
but couldn't quite pull It out. The
final score was 86-76 with five
men hitting double figures for
the frosh.
The Siena game was an entirely different story. Albany led
all the way. The game was extremely sloppy, but through It
all the frosh outhustled their old
rivals, Albany led by sevel at
the half, 41-34, and this is the
way the game stayed then rest
of the way.
For the second
straight game, the frosh had five
men In double figures, Jordan and
McDermott leading the team with
20 and 18 respectively,
The Hartwlck game was the
kind the frosh would like to forget, but that would be Impossible.
Albany was destroyed by Hartwick's press, showed no muscle
under the boards, and played a
very ragged offense.
The first half wasn't too bad
for Albany. The frosh had to
come back from a 17 point deficit to make the half time score
39-29. They still appeared to be
very much in the game as they
narrowed the gap to seven with
fourteen minutes remaining.
However, The frosh completely lost their cool against
Hartwlck's full court zone press.
Hartwlck hit an unbelievable 71
points in the second half to make
the final score 110-71.
Frosh Grapplers Win
Finish With 2-6 Slate
The freshmen wrestling team
ended their season this past Saturday as they defeated Adirondack Community College by a
score of 27-12. As a result of
this victory, the team finished
with a record of two wins and
six losses,
Pete Ranalll initiated the scoring for Albany as he pinned his
opponent in 5:55. He was followed by Kev Sheehan who also won
his match by placing the shoulders of his opponent to the mats
in 5:43. Dave Jones, wrestling
at the 145-pound spot, declsioned
his opponent by a score of 4-1.
Roger Jones then recorded a forfeit victory, thus allowing Albany
to amass eighteen points before
Adirondack could score.
The grapplers from Adirondack finally registered points on
the scoreboard when, in the 152pound division, Bruce DeRosla
outscored Ted Long of Albany In
a tight match by a score of 109. The 100 - pound division was
forfeited by both teams as was
the 177 - pound spot. In the 167pound division, Cos of Adirondack won the match by forfeit.
The match ended on a winning note for Albany as Kris
Jackstadt
pinned the Adirondack wrestler In 3:27.
The record for the freshmen
this year Is rather misleading
because of the fact that the team
was lacking enough wrestlers to
fill
every position for their
matches. Each time that the team
participated In a match, they were
forfeiting three of the weight
classes, thus giving their opponents fifteen points before any
actual wrestling began. Consequently the team was under
pressure from the first match on
to make up for these points.
Therefore, the members of the
team deserve great credit for
being able to surmount seemingly Impossible odds and record
victory where defeat seemed certain.

Swimmers Fall
Albany State's newly formed

Standout Rich Margison
Constantly Improving
From Cortland,
New York
came a tall lanky freshman. He
went out for Coach Bill Schieffelin's yearling basketball squad
and started to Impress and he
has been performing brilliantly
ever since. The first year up
on the varsity, this sophomore
led the entire team in scoring.
This year he is setting the scorlng pace for the entire tri-clty
area. However, Rich Marglson's
deserved rise to stardom Is not
a totally unexpected one.
"Bambl," as he is called by
onlookers because of his graceful strides and amazing leaping
ability, came to Albany with creentials to testify to his ability.
As a senior at Cortland High
School, Margison went on to garner the honor of heading the
All-Syracuse basketball squad.
When basketball season was not
occupying his time, Rich found
tennis and x.country worthwhile
sports as he lettered In both
at Cortland.
Like Father, Like Son
If his high school record was
not enough to give suspicions
that Albany was welcoming a
star, a look at Marglson's family
tree could have provided a hint.
Bambl's father, Richard Sr.,was
a star center for the Albany
State basketball team when Page
Gym was the sports center of
Albany.
When asked what he attributed his marked Improvement to,
Rich replied that, "A year's experience starting on the varsity
squad has helped me a lot. Doctor Sauers' confidence in letting me play my style of ball
has Instilled confidence in myself."
Well-Rounded Person
Basketball takes up at least
three hours of Marglson's day,
yet he has been able to maintain a C + B— average as well
as positions on the Junior Class
Council and the Inter-Fraternity
Council, where he Is Junior representative of his fraternity,

Lacrosse To Appear;
Practice Next Week
Lacrosse, a truly American
sport, will be appearing on campus for the first time this spring
For those who are unfamiliar
with the game a short description
might be in order.
Lacrosse Is a violent, action
packed sport that originated with
the American Indians. The Indians played the game for fun
and entertainment, and also to
train their young braves, for war.
So when two tribes met on the lacrosse field the result was pften
closer to a war than a game.
Although the sport has been
tamed down a little bit by the
institution of some relatively
simple rules, and by the requirement that the participants
wear some protective clothing,
lacrosse still remains a violent action packed sport that
is great for spectators, but not
for fainthearted participants.
The rules are easy enough.
Each team has 10 players, a
goalie, three close defenders,
three mldfleldmen, three close
attacks. Each of these players
is equipped with a stick or
" c r o s s , " and the object of the
game is to get the small hard
rubber ball that Is used into the
opponent's goal, but the ball may
not be touched by a player's
hand, so the crosses must be
used to propel it.
Due mainly to the efforts of
Steve Jakway, a Lacrosse Club
Is presently being organized. The
club < which will take on a Intercollegiate schedule this spring,
will be coached by Joseph Sllvey of the Student Activities office with the assistance of John
Morgan of financial aids.
There are presently 25 men
out for Lacrosse, and plans are
being made to start practice sessions next week at the new campus, weather permitting.
The team is still In need of
players, so all those Interested
will be welcome. The club will
be holding an organization meeting today at 1 p.m. In Humanities 109.

The Albany cagera showed that they a r e a team to
be reckoned with Monday a s they survived a 10 minute
period of woeful shooting and miserable passing, and
still came on strong at the end to win by 7.
The Sauersmen played as well as would be expected for the first 20 minutes, and the Indians from Loudonvllle definitely appeared to be outclassed in almost
. all aspects of the game. However, when the second
half got under way, it soon became apparent that the
Great Danes had suddenly gone sour. It Is cold streaks
like this that make any team, college or professional,
vulnerable, for these streaks can strike any time on
any night.
On Monday night a fired up Siena team quickly took
advantage of the Albany slump and the Indians came
storming back from a 15 point deficit to surge Into a
five point lead. In a rivalry as heated as this one a rally
of such proportions could easily provide the spark necessary to produce a major upset, and for a minute it
looked like that might be the case. However, the Albany
hoopsters suddenly settled down and went to work. The
gap was quickly closed as the Great Danes reasserted
their superiority, and once again took charge of the '
game. Rich Marglson started to break through for driving lay-ups, and the defense clamped down, preventing
Siena from getting the good shots that they were working
for so methodically. So Albany shot back into the lead,
building a lead of nine and reinforcing the impression
given in the first half that Siena really is not on a par
with Albany.
With Siena out of the way the next big test for the
Great Danes will be a week from today at Ithaca. The
Sauersmen, with an 11 game win streak under their
belts, certainly deserve consideration for a tournament
bid. A 17 game win streak is a possibility, and it is
hard to imagine how we could be overlooked if such a
win streak is achieved.
Buffalo State has already been assured of a tournament bid, due to their first place standing In the State
College conference, and it must be remembered that
Buffalo presently has five losses, with a possibility
of a couple more before the tournament. Albany pulled
out of this league several years ago, and has been playing independently ever since, but we still take on a number of state schools, and If we beat Oswego, we will
have handled all opposition from that conference, thus
It would seem that if we do finish without another loss,
a tournament bid would be well deserved, but tournament officials are not known for their predictability,
so anything can happen.

Regarding a possible tourney
berth, Director of Sports Information, Richard Rice, Jr., has
released the following Information. That, (1) C. W. Post, Farlelght Dickinson, the University
of Rochester, LeMoyne, and Albany State are under consideration for three of the four atlarge bids In the regional; (2)
one of the above teams, excluding Albany, will be selected as a
host team for the tourney and
thereby receive a berth; and (3)
the NCAA committee will select the deserving squads sometime early next week. Therefore,
the Albany contests against
Ithaca and Cortland next weekend will have no bearing on the
Sauersmen's chances for their
first NCAA tournament.
Buffalo State has the fourth
position automatically for winning the State University Conference championship.

Grapplers Drop Two

The Albany State wrestling
team suffered two losses this
past week as they were defeated by Potsdam on Wednesday by
a score of 23-11, and again on
Saturday when they lost to Hobart by a score of 26-10. The
grapplers record now stands at
one win and seven l o s s e s . The
Great Danes have now lost their
last four matches.
Against Potsdam, the only win.

while recording only one. Marchall Gladstone again suffered a

again forfeited the heavyweight
division and thus gave up five
points.
The wrestling team this year
has been hampered by a lack of
depth, particularly In the upper
weight classes as they have been
forced to forfeit the heavyweight
spot ever since the beginning of
this semester. In addition, some
wrestlers havo been forced to
participate with painful injuries as there has been no one
to replace them.
All that one could ask for was
packed Into the Albany-Siena contest. Playing before an estimated SRO crowd of 2,200 and with
over 1,000 fans stranded outside Cardinal McCloskey, the
Great Danes and Indians hooked
up In a tangle that will remain
In the memories of many for
a long time to come.
Led by Junior standout Rich
Marglson, the Danes got off to
a quick 7-0 lead. Keeping the
pressure on, the Purple and Gold
raced to a 17-4 lead with 13:30
remaining and left the court at
halftlme with a 46-34 advantage.
After Scott Price hit on a
Jumper to put the Danes ahead
by 14 at the start of the second
stanza, Coach Tom Harmon's
crew went on a 30-13 tear to
lead 64.59, with about eight minutes remaining.
Trailing 08-64, with four minutes to go, the Danes then ripped off eight straight points to
go ahead, 72-68, a lead which
they never lost.
Marglson, who scored a game
high of 25, hit four key baskets
in the final drive, three on spectacular driving lay ups.
The New Paltz affair was no
contest as the Danes raced to
a 47-24 halftlme lead and kept
the margin at around 25 points
throughout the remainder of the
game. It was the Sauersmen's
12th win in a row, equalling the
mark set by the 1064-65 team.
They will have a chance to break
It tomorrow night at Pratt.
