NDC maps plans
for new semester
by Bob Warner
The New Democratic Coalition,
NDC, a liberal reform group,
which seeks to make America a
more democraticjust, and economically equitable nation met
Wednesday evening for the first
time this semester.
Pete Stockweather, a visiting
college student who is a member
of the state NDC, spoke to the
campus NCD group on whether or
not NDC students should have "a
youth caucus around the state, or
have youth represented on each
(state NCD0 committee." In effect, he was asking whether college students should integrate
themselves into the core of the

SWEET DREAMS
(CPS)--Almoat clandestinely,
secrets of spices herbs and culinary artistry have too long been
kept from dedicated connoisseurs.
For this reason, and also due to
tremendous reader request, we (in
our never-ending search for truth,
light, and the American way) present our first cooking page.
In order that this service should
achieve some degree of genius the
. magical, mystical kitchen has
sought out recipes par excellence
and: has revised and improved
them into masterpieces of Incredible proportion. All recipes have
beon kitchen-tested by scrutinizing gourmets.
Unfortunately, Madison Avenue
has not yet realized pot's full
potential in the kitchen and has
neglected to cleverly package and
market the stuff, in favor of such
substances as nicotine and alcohol.
When selecting your marijuana,
choose a relatively good cooking
grade grass-domestic is fine. Save
the imported dope for before and
after dinner joints.
The grass you use will not elicit
an exceptionally strong flavor to
the dish, but will make every
thing seem fantastic by the end of
the meal.
(One relatively unimportant
point-the quantities of weed called for In the recipes are fairly
arbitrary. Add more to suit taste.
The chef was, oddly enough,
smoking while cooking and not
paying exact attention to the
amounts used.)
This Thursday night at 7:00, in
room 325, Central Council will be
meeting specifically on revising
the Student Association Constitution. The new proposed Constitution calls for changes in the
areas of direct, popular, election
of
the
President
and
Vice-President of Central Council,
Student and Commission Representation, Student Courts, Imp e a c h m e n t and Recall, and
Amending Procedure. All interested students are urged by Ken
Stokem, chairman of the Constitutional Revisions Committee
to get off their "apathetic asses"
and make themselves heard at this
meeting.

« Draft Counseling
by Dave Peck
Students at Albany State will soon be able to avail themselves of draft
counseling on campus. Central Council passed a bill on January 8,
which provides $30 to be used to set up a draft counseling library in the
Student Association office, Within a few weeks there will also be a
counselor available at all times.
The bill was introduced by Dave Neufeld, head of the Political and
Social Positions Committee. A bookshelf with limited materials has
already been set up in the Student Association office and more books
are expected shortly. Some of the booklets are for free and some for a
slight charge. Neufeld emphasizes that if a student can't afford the
material he can have it for what ever he can afford, or for free.
VICTOR K. LOOPER, VICE-PRESIDENT of Student Aaocbtion, bean down on some organizations while
lavishing others with honey in his "Budget Philosophy for 1970-71," recently introduced in Central
Council.
-polskowski
The Albany Peace Center, along with PSP, plans to train the draft
counselors. Anyone who would like to become a counselor should
come to CC 346 at 3 p.m. on Tuesday, February 17 for a short meeting
explaining the type of training one has to go through to become a draft
counselor. Those who can't attend should call 7-8756.
Crime on campus up 100%;
Security force still only 31 men
Draft counseling is not draft evasion or resistance. A Counselor will
tell a student his options and his alternatives. He willnot tell a student
what to do and will not make any decisions for the student. Neufeld

Incidents of crime on campus
have .skyrocketed more than one
hundred percent In the past year,
according to James Connally,
chief of the SUNYA security
force. And the critical situation is
not apt lo improve as them »re no
plans to hire additional men.
This gloomy picture is the end
result of a variety of causes. Although the amount of persons and
property protected by security
has increased over the past year,
the number of patrolmen has
stayed the same- thirty one
(grouped into three shifts).
Unbelievably, there is but one
investigator. He is responsible for
the follow-up work on EVERY
CASE. Since most arrests are the
result of lengthy investigation,
there is an obvious problem.
All requests for increases have
been systematically turned down.
Furthermore, priority is placed
on keeping police at "fixed
posts," which they cannot leave.
Thus the responsibility for virtually all police patrolling falls on
the two patrol units. And a great
deal of THEIR time is occupied
by tasks such as transporting ill
*"
students to the infirmary or hospital. Last year, 730 such calls
were made. Each response ties up
one of the cars (half of the patrolling force) for at least thirty minutes. Attempts to £et a third
marked patrolling car or hire a
Connally also cited a dire need
for supervisors in each platoon to
assure cooperation and coordinate efforts.
These requests, like the others,
are annually turned down by the
Bureau of the Budget.
And how does this bureaucratic
red tape effect the student? In
January of 1969, there were 21
thefts. Last January, there were
41. Criminal mischief cases increased 60%. And burgularies
doubled. Yet, in typical AliceIn-Wonderland fashion, during
peak crime hours only seven to
eight officers are on duty. One
policeman each is stationed in the
lecture complex (usually a private
Burns guard), at the desk in security, at the library, fine arts center, as a watchman, and in the two
cars. To put it simply, I here are
scarcely enough bodies to fill the
posts.
What can he clone to reverse the
situation? As a start, the funds
used to hire private guards should
be diverted to the campus security
force. SUNYA police are generally
younger «ud are better acquainted
with campus problems.
Secondly, mobility should be
emphasized; patrolmen at "fixed
posts" should be allowed to patrol
even though certain people who
demand extra protection may become upset.
But the real solution lies with
the student himself. As a start,
Chief Connally would like
SUNYA students to realize the
police are present to "perform a
service instead of being viewed as
unnecessary interference with students." Ultimately, that IS the
answer, for we must realize it is in
our interest to demand a stop to
the sacrificing of security needs.
The situation is reaching crisis
p r o p o r t i o n s . Past experience
shows that a concerned student
body is the way to cut through
administrative indifference.

Albany student to study future
of State University system
by Vicki Zelden
Doug Goldschmidt, an undergraduate at the University and a
member of the University Senate,
has been namtd by Chancellor
Samuel B. Gould to a panel to
research the goals and future of
the entire State University system.
Chancellor Gould announced
the establishment of the "Panel
on University Purposes" to look
into the University's aims and objectives and discuss specific topics
affecting its future, such as the
much debated open admissions
proposal.
Goldschmidt, a senior political
science major from Elmont, L.I.,
is a member of the national debate club honorary TKADSR, and
has been actively involved in the
student-faculty committee planning a new General College.
The Chancellor's panel consists
of some 50 members, including
community leaders, legislators,
educators and six students, each
from different state university
campuses. Goldschmidt, a temporary member of the panel itself,
is a member of the committee
doing research on universities'
trends and changes in all areas.
The information gathered by this
group is then submitted to the
panel for discussion and and
analysis.
The task of the panel has been
divided into six general areas.
"The Changing Educational Mandate" Is one. Its goal is to realize
and project what high school level
achievement students entering the
University will have. And, with
this projection, be able to forsee
what courses will be needed at the
college level in the future.
"The Students and the University" is an area that will consider
the University's responsibilities to
the student as well as to his parents. This division will also attempt to define student responsibilities and rights.
" T h e University's Role in
Society" is a topic dealing with
the questions of what responsibilities does the University have to
the society, and how much of a
role should the society play in
shaping the University.
There then is the topic entitled
"The Advancement of Knowledge" which just might be daring
enough to analyze teaching techniques. This topic also includes
questions on research and its ultimate effects on the University and
society.
The major goal of the Chan
cellor's "Panel on University Purpose" seems to be that of pro
jection. Projection so that the
University can be and will be in
the years to come "all that it
should be." It is an attempt at
anticipation rather than waiting
for that which could be anticipated to come unexpectedly.

"The Prospects of Support" is
an area concerned with finding
out where and how aid will come
in the future. It is also involved in
discovering how University actions may or may not affect the
supply of aid.

A significant debate developed
over whether students should act
for Wagner as an individual case,
or as part of a larger issue. Concern was voiced that the situation
reflected a dangerous pattern of
disregarding student opinion making University decisions.

LAAC bill
To the Editor:
Living Affairs Commission brought up a bill which
would grant commuter students preferred parking
over resident students. A check with security revealed that there are approximately three times as
many commuter vehicles registered on campus as
resident vehicles.
IRRESPONSIBLE
The problem that arises becomes most severe
during the winter months. Resident students tend to
leave their cars parked in the first few rows of the
Student's lot. This forces commuters to part further
away from campus. These commuters are required
to use their car each day, in order to attend classes.
While they walk through the winter weather, resident's cars are left in the closest parking spots.

The Senate
After two months of debate the University Senate
finally voted on and approved a resolution condemning "the intervention of the Unilcd Slates in
the affairs of the nation of Vietnam." The general
disorder of previous meeting ("These meetings are
'bullshit' " one distraught faculty member streamed
at a December 1969 meeting) was replaced Kebruary 10 by a productive and responsive atmosphere.
This was bound lo happen. One point many critics
don't seem to understand il Ihal participatory democracy requires periods of flux and self-appraisal. Or
to put it another way, everyone has to have their
say. During the lasl two months most factions in the
Senate had their say, and this proved valuable:. The
vacuous arguments (The who-nccds-a-Senale- anyway contention for example) and the meaningless
rhetoric dissolved under the force of expediency:
time was short and issues were pressing.
The meeting was a breath of fresh air in the
interest deportment also. The blandness of "decorum" was replaced by the old English system of
speaking your mind. For example when John Rcilly
of the English Department stood up lo deride tlie
It is for these reasons that I proposed the bill to
LAAC. Although we realized the possibility that
some resident students use their cars for work or
student teaching, we believe this number to be relatively small and feel that this new rule will benefit

cars for school.

Comment
Senate for its "indirect morality," people clapped
and people booed. The same thing happened when
Douglas (ioldschmidl, a student, voiced opposition
to making the University responsible for individual
morality. Whoever the speaker and whatever his position, each senator who spoke experienced the kind
of personal confronlaion needed in decision making.
Alas Tuesday's meeting was a good catharsis for
all. Decisions were made, people spoke up, and a lol
of uplighlness disappeared.
The City
The ASP will soon start covering Albany City
news. The City Editor's first feature is an interview
wilh Mayor Erastus Corning.
We initialed this coverage for two reasons. Eirst,
there was a lack of city news coverage in the past.
Second, many students living on campus have developed an Ivory Tower complex. These people
seem lo think all their physical, social, and intellectual needs are taken care of within the borders
of Perimeter Road. They see Mule need for exploration.

To the Editor:
It seems to me that we veLerans

Do you recall Mauldin's Joe and
Willy cartoons? Those grimy,
cynical combat men portrayed a
theme that a lot of the homeguard
missed. "We're doing the job. But
don't believe what you hear, and
only half of what you see."
You won't find Joe and Willy

me at the training camp. We've
been there. And we've learned to
count.
We know that counting all
losses North Vietnam has had
1,600,000 casualties since 1961.
In proportion, the U.S.A. would
have to lose 15 million to match
it. These N.V.losses are the greatest in the history of warfare.
Fighting men often learn to respect their enemy more than they
do their own leaders and poli
ticians. If Roger's Rangers and the
Green Mountain Boys and Washington's Continental Line were to
meet N.L.F. veterans they would
have much in common. They
would not have differences worth
fighting over.
This is what spurs the endless
flow of crude propaganda which
smothers American thought and
morality. Joe and Willy and I
don't believe it -- and a lot of
Americans are ceasing to believe
it.
We citizen soldiers can win any
war that's forced on us, but we
know a dishonorable overseas adventure when we see
one.
Would George Washington and his
staff have called this murder?
We've dropped bombs by the ton

W.2 To discharge these responsibilities the Faculty shall create a
Senate and shall delegate its
power to the Senate... ."
At no place in the by-laws is
there provision for the Faculty
Senate to present policy positions
on issues not concerning the
above responsibilities. Yet the
Senate has done just that. What
then is the nature of such an action?
Every individual has the responsibility of evaluating events
around him and acting on his
value choices. Too often today,
the individual allows the group to
speak for him, or allows his representative to act outside his authority.
There is only one type of person
who will accept such an offering:
the person who wants power over
others.
In this root is the true nature of
apathy and dictatorship. The person who does not care to control
those who act for him, who abdicates his responsibility to someone else is the WORST of the
apathetic and u threat, because of
his apathy, to representative
government. The person who
readily accepts a blank check to
extend his authority to act for his
constituent is the "father" of the
dictator.
NATIONAL
IMPORT
She has inspired students to learn
and continue in their study of history."
Dr. Tucker has a high regard for
teaching and the responsibilities
of the teacher to her students.
However, she argues, quite surprisingly, that students' interest
might be overlooked in favor of
higher criteria.
"Students are concerned with
problems now. The administration
is committed to the future. It is
difficult to reconcile the two."
STUDENT ACTION
Dr. Tucker's acquiescent attitude prompted a request for her
opinion of the student action in
her behalf, since she had state that
she would comply to the University's decision without attempts
toward legal action. Although she
personally appreciated the students' efforts for her benefit she
personally has chosen to remain
uninvolved in their activities.
Nevertheless, Dr. Tucker views
the student action as positive.
Through her personal service on
the Student Affairs Council, she
appreciates the need for students
Dr. Tucker also introduced an
interesting aspect of the student
movement in her case. She questioned student understanding of
what criteria were used in recommending a particular faculty member for tenure.
TENURE QUESTION
The University is changing in its
development into a large institution. Along with this is a "move
towards generally accepted standards," especially in the context of
granting tenure.
Most tenure recommendations
are made in accordance with the
criteria established by the American Association of University Professors, with which most college
instructors are familiar. The University's new guidelines, soon to
be studied by the University Senate, follow those ideas quite closeiy.
Furthermore, it is doubtful
where Dr. Tucker's case may be
thought of as a blow to student
need. Besides the evaluation of
present achievements, the department is compelled to consider the
future.
"Just because a person is hired
for a term does not mean that he
will be given a job until he retires," Dr. Tucker reiterated.
If, as a result of student efforts and departmental attempts
to have the Tucker case reviewed,
the University reverses its decision
and grants her tenure, what would
be her feelings about staying on at
this institution?
"If I didn't feel that I could
respect the department, students
and faculty, I wouln't stay. I
would look for another job...."
WILL COMPLY
All in all, Dr. Tucker feels that
she has been treated fairly by her
department. Although she hopes
for a favorable response, she plans
to accept whatever decision the
University committee renders.
Petitions have oeen circuiaieu,
meetings have been held. Concerned students have spread their
views to all of the University community. Dr. Tucker's excellence as
a teacher has been lauded. (As one
of her
former students
put it: "She's excellent, and
coming from one of the two students who tailed her course, that's
quite a testimonial.") The Department of History has sent its recommendation. Hopefully the University will wisely consider these
aspects of the question in making
its final decision.

Danes are Victorious :
Crush New Paltz 71-55; Reid Excels
by Jay Marshall
Tuesday night the Albany STate
basketball team broke a two game
losing streak by defeating New
Paltz 71-55. The team was coming
off a tough loss to Cortland last
Saturday which as Coach Sauers
admitted, took a lot out of the
team. The team did not shoot
very well, but was offset by the
usual tight defense and good rebounding.
New Paltz had a decided height
advantage throughout the game.
Albany attempted to counteract
this height problem by playing a
running, pressing game. The press
was effective, however State failed
to convert on many fast-freak
situations. Coach Sauers readily
admits that the Danes are not a
running team, but such a situation
calls for the smaller team to play a
running game. Jack Jordan scored
nine of his thirteen points in the
first half as Albany jumped out to
a 33-21 advantage at intermission.
After half-time Jack Adams hit
eight quick points preventing New
Paltz from closing the lead.
Adams and Al Reid, who paced all
scorers with nineteen points, led
the attack in the second half as
Albany pulled away.
The important play of the reserves was a key in Albany's success. Ed Arscnau, displaying more
confidence than in the beginning
of the season and Mike Hill both
came off the bench and contributed in the victory. Hill showed
a willingness to battle under the
boards and, along with Jordan,
Steve Sheehan, and Reid, helped
Albany outrebound New Paltz.
After the game, Sauers commended the play of the subs and added
that forward Jim Sandy has been
the most valuable replacement,
but wasn't used much against New
Paltz because none of the forwards were in foul trouble.
Those who arrived al the start
of the varsity game missed half
the show. The freshmen team,
now 10-.1, ran over the New Paltz
Frosh 92-55. The Freshmen fea-
tured a balanced attack with the
starters averaging around ten
points each per game. The team
also has excellent depth and
Coach Lewis substitutes freely,
Coach Sauers believes at least five
players will move up to the varsity
next year. They will face a tough
opponent Saturday night in the
Siena Frosh. At the end of the
Frosh game, the Albany varsity
came onto the floor and warmed
up to the beat of Sly and the
Family Stone and other records.
The team held a meeting Monday
and decided to add some music to
the warm-ups. Sauers did not
object st), courtesy of Hill, music
was supplied.
The two clubs split last year,
Albany winning, 59-58 in the
championship game of the Capital
City Tournament and Siena stopping an 11-game Dane victory
slum later in the year, 73-«4. at
Troy High. That triumph also
halted Albany's longest series winning streak at four games. This
year, for the first time since 1964,
the rivals will meet only once.
Saturday night, Albany meets
its traditional rival, Siena. The Indians are led by 6-7 center Bob
Hermann who poses a large problem for the Albany defense. According to Sauers, Albany was
"flat" against New Paltz and must
play better to win Saturday night.
Come early and enjoy the show.
Grapplers edged by Post 22-18
The Albany State wrestling
team dropped a close 22-1H decision to the Pioneers from C.W.
Post on Wednesday. The loss left
the matmen with an overall 1-6
record.
The Danes registered three pins
and one decision in totaling up
their 18 points. Pinning their opponents were sophomore Jim
Nightingale, 158 lbs.; sophomore
Mike Mueller, 190 lbs and freshman heavyweight Herman Milliard. The other victory went to
freshman Phil Mims, 167 lbs., who
decisioned his man 12-5.
Just as Coach Garcia was mellowing in the good fortune of
having a 100% healthy team, a
major setback befell the grapplers
as Tim Coons injured his knee and
A
was unable to compete in the Post
contest. As the Coach sees it, the
absence of Tim could have been
the deciding factor in the outcome of Ihe match.
Despite the unimpressive record
amassed up to this point in the
season, several things should be
noted about this year's team. A
lack of depth and experience cannot be compensated in any way
and hits hardest in a sport like
wrestling. Not only does it
eliminate the much needed individual competition but has forced
the wrestlers in the lower weight
classes to compete one class above
their regular weight. Nevertheless
Coach Garcia is quite proud of the
job these boys are doing under
such conditions.

New consultation
policy approved
Copies of the University Senate's resolution condemning the war in
Vietnam will be circulated to various elected representatives and
selected national media in compliance with a request made by the
Senate at their meeting yesterday afternoon.
Also at the Senate meeting the Executive Committee reported
on ils activities since January 19 when it was authorized to act for the
Senate on pending matters. Towards the end of the Senate meeting a
number of now resolutions were presented by various student senators
which wilt be discussed at the next regular Senate meeting.
The Guidelines for faculty-student consultation prepared to
implement last spring's Senate policy statement on student
participation have now been officially adopted. These guidelines slate
that the primary responsibility for drawing up student consultation
procedures lies at the departmental level. The guidelines acknowledge
that the mechanism of implementation are varied. However, it is
necessary for each department or unit to formulate a statement of
procedure, which is to be filed with the Vice-Chairman of the Senate.
These statements should "make explicit the circumstances and
manner in which student opinion will be obtained, the subject matters
scheduled for discussion, the machinery to be employed for selection
of sLuclent representatives, the grievance procedure and such other
provisions as may appropriately be made a matter of record as having
been decided or agreed to."
The recommendations on tenure and continuing appointments as
approved by the Council on Promotions and Continuing Appointments and the Executive Committee were discussed. It was the sense
of some Senators that the report was vaguely worded in places and it
was decided to return the report to the Council on Promotions and
Continuing Appointments to be reconsidered. Generally the report as
presented to Senate seems to ignore a substantial number of
suggestions made by the faculty-student committee on l'.iure which
would have guaranteed the role of the student.
Five new resolutions were introduced by various student senators
and were referred to the appropriate Senate Councils. They will be
discussed at the next regular Senate meeting.
These resolutions include the establishment of a review committee
in the RPA department, <i parking policy which will not. discriminate
