THE ASP SPORTS
Danes Roll Over Utica, 35-6
by Alan D. Abbey
T h e Star Spangled Banner couldn ' t get t h e entire c r o w d t o stand
at S a t u r d a y ' s o p e n i n g day football
g a m e with Utica. However the
G r e a t Danes, in a good team
p e r f o r m a n c e , did, a n d won the
p l a u d i t s of t h e entire c r o w d as
they t r a m p l e d the Pioneers 35-6.
T h e offense and the defense,
which held Utica to m i n u s seven
y a r d s rushing in the second half,
each played well, b u t could have
been better. T h e offense was especially sloppy in t h e e a r l y m i n u t e s
of the game, as t h e Danes fumbled
t h e ball away five times in the
first half. T h r e e came on consecutive series of downs, and it seemed
as if the Danes just did n o t v/ant
t o win t h e game.
However, credit m u s t be given
where credit is due and m a n y
individuals for S t a t e did stand
o u t . Tailback Bernie Boggs was
the leading individual rusher for
the Danes with H7 yards in in
a t t e m p t s . Fullback Lonnie Davis
totaled 70 yards in 16 a t t e m p t s
and scored the first five Groat
Dane t o u c h d o w n s . It was a three
yard plunge and it capped a :i!)
yard drive.
Quarterbacks Rick Petty, who
started, and Bill Flanagan, w h o
c a m e back in fine fashion from his
s h o u l d e r injury, a l t e r n a t e d from
the s e c o n d q u a r t e r on.
Flanagan scored twice on o n e
yard k e e p e r s . T h e first c a m e late
in t h e s e c o n d q u a r t e r t o bring the
score to 12-0 State. T h e second
TD was on the first play of the
fourth period after a mix-up with
the clock. It was fourth d o w n and
the offensive line submarined the
entire
Utica defense
allowing
Flanagan t o s c o o t through unt o u c h e d . T h a t t o u c h d o w n made
the score 21-0 and gave the Danes
a c o m f o r t a b l e margin.
P e t t y c o m p l e t e d two passes for
68 yards a n d called an excellent
game. He k n e w where and when
to run the ball, and his team,
when it finally began t o e x e c u t e
late in the second quarter, moved
the ball for him. Petty also scored
the final t o u c h d o w n , on a one
yard keeper, to bring the score to
its final position, .'15-0. Other scorers for S t a t e included a 2'i-yard
reverse run by speedy split end
Cleve Little, and a 35-yard field
goal by kicker Vince Pierce.
T h e Danes, however did have
trouble getting u n t r a c k e d , as can

T o m o r r o w afternoon the Great
Danes travel to Rochester to meet
Rochester Institute' of Technology. Albany is coming off an impressive 35-6 victory over Utica,
Coach Bob Ford was h a p p y with
the victory, but feels that if the
Danes make the same type of
mistakes against Rochester, they
will be destroyed. The difference
between last year's team and the
present squad so far. is the ability
of the defense to hold after the
offense had fumbled. Last year
the defense made just as many
mistakes as the offense. Ford is
surprised that the defense has
improved so quickly, b u t a d m i t s
t h a t they are far from being a
good football team. The defense is
y o u n g with five freshmen in tinstarting lineup.
Coach
Ford
was especially
pleased with his offensive line.
Pete Moore, a 5 ' 1 0 " 20fi p o u n d
guard, did a fine job opening up
holes for Lonnie Davis and Bernie
Boggs. Ed Perka, a 8 ' 4 " 212
p o u n d right end, also did a fine
job blocking for Albany.
R I T is in their first year of
varsity fool hall. In our first game
ever last year, we heal them
3 0 - 2 1 . Last week RIT lied Platlsburgh 17-7), a team they had
figured to beat. T o m o r r o w is
Rochester's
first
h o m e game.
T h e y should be looking for revenge.
T h e Tigers hoasl a strong defense. On offense, I hey have an

but b o t h will start. In the previous
game Coach Ford brought in
b a c k u p q u a r t e r b a c k Rich Petty
for third and long yardage. Ford
said, " l i e is n o t really telegraphing
the play because on long yardage
situations everyone knows

be e x p e c t e d in t h e first game of
the season. Luckily, t h e S t a t e
defense was u p t o the task and
denied Utica e n t r a n c e t o the goal
until the fourth q u a r t e r , when t h e
game was all b u t sewed u p . T h e
Utica score c a m e after a 48-yard
kickoff return had fired up the
Pioneers.
T h e Danes o p e n e d the game in
interesting fashion as they ran
their first series of plays w i t h o u t
utilizing a h u d d l e . F r o m that odd
beginning till the end of t h e game,
when the reserves were put in,
Tailback Bernie Boggs, and Fullhack Davis were the w o r k h o r s e s .
T h e y led t h e S t a t e rushers t o a
total of 214 yards. Add the 75
yards gained in the air, and the
Danes racked up a total of 289
yards from the line of scrimmage.
While this w e n t o n t h e Dane
defense held the Pioneers t o a
meager total of 21 rushing a n d 3 0
passing yards. All of this passing
yardage came late in t h e game
when Albany was in a p r e v e n t
defense.
T h e defense also i n t e r c e p t e d
four passes, and the offense converted t w o of these into scores.
Individual credit on defense m u s t
be given to Tackle Frank Villanova w h o played a superb game,
s t o p p i n g the run and harassing the
passer.
T h e Danes played good ball,
especially in t h e s e c o n d half when
the offense really began to jell and
the defense dug in. Coach F o r d
should be pleased t h a t S t a t e won
its second consecutive h o m e open-

A Minority Legal Council F u n d was set u p by the a p p r o p r i a t i o n .
Under this fund, a new S t u d e n t Lawyer will be hired t h a t specializes
in minority cases, According to the E.O.P. S t u d e n t Association, t h e
present S t u d e n t Association Lawyer is n o t experienced in m i n o r i t y
cases.
Debate over the a p p r o p r i a t i o n lasted for over three Injurs. Discussion centered on the merits of the a p p r o p r i a t i o n . Council Member
J o d y WideliU felt t h a t an a p p r o p r i a t i o n of such a large sum to t h e
E.O.P. S t u d e n t Association was unfair t o o t h e r racial and e t h n i c
groups on c a m p u s . He c o m m e n t e d t h a t if all m o n e y was d e v o t e d to
o n e g r o u p , the interests of o t h e r s would be sacrificed. He suggested
that no group should ever get all if wants when there are conflicting
needs and interests. Council m e m b e r Jay Shusterhoff cited the fact
t h a t little if any m i n o r i t y s t u d e n t s p a r t i c i p a t e in S t u d e n t s Association
functions. As a result, he felt t h a t t h e E.O.P. S t u d e n t Association
deserved the m o n e y .
A t t e m p t s were made to reduce the cost of t h e bill since Central
Council had only thirty-six t h o u s a n d dollars in its Emergency
Spending Line plus a possible additional twenty-five to t h i r t y
t h o u s a n d dollars resulting from an u n e x p e c t e d surplus. T h e surplus is
the result of m o r e income than projected from s t u d e n t lax, m o n e y
not spent lasl. year, and m o r e m o n e y owed t h e m t h a n e x p e c t e d , T h e
bill was cut by a b o u t three t h o u s a n d dollars during the d e b a t e ,

b o t h a n t i - g o v e r n m e n t riots a n d terrorist incidents wore evident in
several locations. I n d e p e n d e n t r e p o r t s o u t of Saigon say t h a t t h e

Despite reports of official American o p t i m i s m t h a t Nationalist
China will remain in the UN, qualified observers here find the

Wilbank was o n e of four student n o m i n e e s from
the Criminal Justice S c h o o l . All the n o m i n e e s were
subjected to an in-depth interview. T h e y were
asked, first of all, if they were impartial and
undecided a b o u t the Attica tragedy. According t o
Wilbank, the most i m p o r t a n t criteria for being on
the c o m m i t t e e was t h a t the person have n o preconceived ideas a b o u t Attica.
Wilbank added that his previous a c a d e m i c background also had a lot to d o with his being c h o s e n . He
a t t e n d e d college in T e x a s , and while t h e r e h e
worked on a research project with four o t h e r
s t u d e n t s . On this project he visited several T e x a s
prisons and c o n d u c t e d a survey a m o n g i n m a t e s and
guards. He interviewed nearly 1000 i n m a t e s and 6 0
guards in an effort to d e t e r m i n e why so m a n y
inmates returned to prison t i m e and again after
being " r e h a b i l i t a t e d . " T h e answers were diametrical
ly o p p o s e d , he says. T h e guards blamed the i n m a t e s ,
while the inmates blamed society and the way they
were treated while in prison.
When asked whether he thought the c o m m i t t e e
was impartial, Wilbank responded that he hasn't met
any of the other c o m m i t t e e m e m b e r s , so he
wouldn't be able to c o m m e n t fairly. He did indicate, however, that he fell the c o m m i t t e e represented a good cross-section of society and that he was
glad there was an ex-eonvict, One point Wilbank
emphasized strongly was that he only r e p r e s e n t s
himself a n d not the s l u d e n t s of S U N Y A . " I ' m no)
going to take a poll of all the s l u d n e l s , and then go
lo the c o m m i t t e e and say, "Phis is what the s t u d e n t s
WiinI'," and he adds t h a t , " T h e blacks on the
c o m m i t lee aren'l going lo lake a poll in Harlem,
either, and say 'This is what the blacks w a n t . The
whole idea of this c o m m i t t e e is for us lo m a k e u p
our o w n minds, as i n d i v i d u a l s . "
R e s p o n d i n g t o a q u e s t i o n a b o u t his o w n personal
views on Allien, Wilbank said t h a t he w a s n ' t
s u p p o s e d t o c o m m e n t o n a n y aspects of Attica until
after the c o m m i t t e e m a d e its r e p o r t . Even if b e were
able to c o m m e n t , he says that, "I w o u l d n ' t k n o w
what to say a n y w a y s . My o w n o p i n i o n wavers as I
read conflicting r e p o r t s . My reaction was confusion."
Wilbank does, however, have s o m e very definite
views on the condition of the penal system in this
c o u n t r y . Ho p o i n t s out t h a t 9 5 % of all i n m a t e s will
return lo s o c i e t y , and then asks, "If you treat t h e m
like animals, h o w d o you think they will act when
they gel o u t ? We say we are going to take a m a n
away for five years and try to 're-socialize' him.
H o w d o you re-socialize him if the o n l y people h e
has c o n t a c t with are o t h e r prisoners and g u a r d s ? "
Wilbank endorses the findings of the President's
Crime C o m m i s s i o n : "We need to get away from
large institutions like Attica, and go l o smaller
c o m m u n i t y institutions. We need half-way houses
and rehabilitation c e n t e r s . " He claims t h a t o n l y 2 0 %
of all inmates should be in m a x i m u m security
prisons like the o n e at Attiea, and asks, " W h e r e else
are we going to p u t t h e m ? " He is rather skeptical
a b o u t the proposal t o build a "super-jail" in New
York S t a t e in which all the s u p e r - m a x i m u m security
prisoners would be kept, including the leaders of
riots and prison uprisings.
Wilbank p o i n t e d out the close correlation b e t w e e n
prisoner militancy and Ihe new militancy in o t h e r
aspects of American life, including inmates, w o m e n ,
h o m o s e x u a l s , and soldiers, lie cites recent moves in
California lo unionize the prisoners as only o n e
e x a m p l e of this trend. He says, "I think an
in.port.aitt q u e s t i o n is whether these militants are
really dangerous to society. This is o n e of the
q u e s t i o n s I'm going lo try lo answer over Ihe next
tew w e e k s . "
Many other q u e s t i o n s will have to he answered
during the next few weeks Allhough he is confused
ahoiil Attica ill Ihe present, Wilbank is sure that
after reading all the r e p o r t s , visiting Ihe prisons, and
talking wilh prisoners he will c o m e up with s o m e
very definite c o n c l u s i o n s a b o u t the Attica tragedy
William Wilbank, a graduate student here, has been selected to serve
on a panel investigating the events that occurred at Attica
ASP
Prison.
Legal Hassles?
Turn to S.A. Lawyer
by Linda Mule
Where can a S U N Y A student, go when he has a legal hassle? Linda
Leventhal, a p a r t n e r in the law firm of R o s e n b l u m & L e v e n t h a l , can
help. Leventhal is o n e of the a t t o r n e y s hired by the S t u d e n t
Association last year for the aid a n d p r o t e c t i o n of Albany S t a t e
students.
The duties of the firm, as slated by Leventhal, include " c o u n s e l i n g
the Student Association and giving Lhem legal o p i n i o n s , giving a free
office or t e l e p h o n e c o n s u l t a t i o n to any S U N Y A s t u d e n t w h o has a
legal p r o b l e m or q u e s t i o n , and making a first a p p e a r a n c e in c o u r t and
arranging for bail if notified that a S t a t e s t u d e n t has been a r r e s t e d . "
In a d d i t i o n , either Leventhal or her p a r t n e r , San ford R o s e n b l u m ,

Prof. Ed Begle, "Father
of New
Math", member of S t a n f o r d U. School
of E d u c a t i o n , head of School Math
Study Group, w i l l speak here M o n . ,
Oct. 1 1 , o n Measuring
Teaching Effectiveness
Have you noticed the latest giveaway on campus, the Student
Buyer's Guide ? For those of you from civilized areas, it's a sort
of student form of Pennysaver. It is nearly 100 per cent
advertising, except for a calendar of events culled, one would
suspect, from other area papers.
We don't want to bore you with history, but there are some
•factors this situation you should know. Mr. David A. Cavanaugh, a
former advertising manager of a small local newspaper, approached the ASP last year about a sort of advertising co-operative.
Most of the other area college newspapers, along with the ASP
would trust Mr. Cavanaugh to bring in all their local advertising.
For most college papers, local ads are becoming increasingly
important as a source of revenue. The advertising rates were
raised, of course, to cover Mr. Cavanaugh's commission. Unfortunately, the ASP had to leave the co-operative because Mr.
Cavanaugh could not generate the high volume of advertising
necessary to sustain us. The others, however, came to depend on
him more and more.
Last summer, Mr. Cavanaugh began to work on, you guessed it,
the Student Buyer's Guide . He sent all of his advertisers, who had
been advertising in the college papers, a letter which said, in
effect, "Why advertise with them, when you can advertise in my
Buyer's Guide for a much lower price?" Not surprisingly, they
did. And, not surprisingly, the area college newspapers are dying
for lack of ads. The ASP, larger in size and frequency, is mil
affected, but we still1 feel thai Mr. Cavanaugh ("IMC Enterprises") and his Editor (alias?) Mike Jacohson are destroying the
school newspapers to make a buck.
"The response lo the Guide was really fanlaslic." says Mr.
Jacobson in his letter to students. Il cerlainly was. action by
campus newspapers goi him and his ad sheet banned from Kl'l
and Siena College after only a single issue. So far lie has been
banned as well from Schenectady Community College, as mine
students realize the damage being wrought by Mr. Cavanaugh,
Since our own student government is musi reluctant lo lake
action, we ask thai each studenl concerned with the survival of
campus newspapers simply lake their copy (heller still lake
several I and deposit il (ihcml unopened in Ihc nearest trash can.

Spoilsport. People w h o spend d a y s listening, over and
over a d n a u s e u m , t o a .set of a l b u m s loosely defined
as " h u m o r " a l b u m s . Such people a r e k n o w n as
Firesign T h e a t r e freaks.

( Z a c h a r i a h ) T h e occasion of this article is t h e release

best t h e Firesign T h e a t r e ' s ability t o warp time,

and t h e y usually d o n ' t
work. Firesign T h e a t r e takes a situation, and presents
o n l y t h e oral side of it, so we have t o think t o
u n d e r s t a n d w h a t ' s h a p p e n i n g ; then t h r o w s in incongruities, p u n s , a n d absurdities whenever possible, and
m a k e s a m p l e a n d perfect use of sound effects a n d
voice inflections.
T h e skills, p u n s a n d h u m o r styles developed in t h e
early a l b u m s reach a peak in t h e fourth a l b u m . At
first listening, it d o e s n ' t seem as e n t e r t a i n i n g as t h e
o t h e r s ; t h e p u n s a n d q u i p s are n o t as prevalent,
although still there, as in a section t h a t parodies
World's Fair-type science rides: " A n i m a l s w i t h o u t
b a c k b o n e s his from each o t h e r o r fell d o w n . Clamosaurs and e y s t e r e t t e s appeared as appetizers. Then
c a m e the sponges, which sucked u p a b o u t ten percent
of all life...And so... in fear and h o t water... Man is
born!"
But m u c h of t h e rest of the a l b u m seems incomprehensible at first. T h e Science ride ends with a
d e m o n s t r a t i o n of a real working model g o v e r n m e n t
( " L o o k at t h a t ! It heard t h e word ' p o w e r ' and it
r e s p o n d e d just like we d o ! " ) . T h e final a t t r a c t i o n is a
c o m p u t e r i z e d President, w h o answers o n e q u e s t i o n
from each rider electronically. T h e p r o t a g o n i s t , Clem,
uses this q u e s t i o n session t o begin a c o n f r o n t a t i o n
with t h e whole c o m p u t e r i z e d system behind t h e fair,
and at this p o i n t t h e Firesign T h e a t r e transcends mere
h u m o r a n d begins t o deal with e x p e c t a t i o n s of o u r
real future. In t h e end, when Clem seems t o destroy
the machines b y a b s u r d i t y , ( " W h y does t h e porridgebird lay its eggs in t h e a i r ? " ) we feel a sense of j o y
even t h o u g h we d o n ' t understand fully t h e exact
events taking place.
t h e r e is t h e rough, s a n d p a p e r
voice with brass o r percussion
backing o n such as " P o r t of Ams t e r d a m . " In b o t h cases, t h e vocal
work is fine a n d expressive. T h e
instrumentation,
though,
while
s o m e t i m e s effective, often seems

It's sad, though, that I know life is learning, and
little more. Saying this is like putting limits on it.
No matter what y o u learn and how much o f it you
learn, all y o u see if life is what y o u learned. I feel
empty--dead--inside when 1 realize that. I feel
lonely n o t just alone, when I realize that. That
realization - t h e exact m o m e n t I c o m p r e h e n d t h a t ,

is futile. Learning is futile.

I drift from o n e learning time t o the next; I get
beaten up once but the next time I overcome my
opponents because I learned how t o kick and punch
from the last time. The thing that I have over most
people is that I know that life is learning, and little
more than that. The more I learn, the more I live.
That's why I like t o be active, although R&R ( rest
and recreation) is learning, too. 1 don't like inactivity that's forced o n m e ; now that's preventing me
from learning as much as I wanted to. S o m e b o d y
else is imposing his idea of learning on me. I don't
like that.

Learning is to realize the futility of it all, the big
deception that is life. Learning, true learning,
learning that reaches the soul and scars its essence—
this learning can n e v e r be taught in a school, only
by a n d in oneself, b y and in o n e ' s self-realization.
School learning is a diversion, designed t o give
people c o n f i d e n c e t h a t life is really w o r t h s o m e thing, t h a t life is real. Schooling produces the false
impression that life can b e formed. I t isn't formed—
it isn't even t h e r e ! ! ! S c h o o l i n g c a n only d e l u d e us
into t h i n k i n g t h a t life is w o r t h s o m e t h i n g , b u t this is
but a noble, albeit o f t e n t i m e s successful, m e t h o d of
keeping m a n sane, or w h a t s c h o o l i n g calls " s a n e " ,
anyway
Maybe that's what life is--learning. Nobody teaching-just learning. N o b o d y tells y o u h o w t o live.
You're just adrift, left t o fend for yourself. Others
push you around, but then you either get used t o it
or y o u learn t o push back. See? That word "learn"
c o m e s up. Probably, life is meant t o be insecure so
that people can learn. Nobody learns anything
worthwhile except when he's forced to learn it; and
then he has t o use that learning t o survive. People
are just learning animals who bump into each other,
each bump causing new learning. Life is one learning
situation after another. A person can never really
enjoy life because learning can be and often is
painful; but the more a person learns, the fuller his
existence.

and the loneliness grows. It grows because I k n o w
that the only way I'll realize w h o , why, and what I
am is t o reach my God. And--oh!-I reach Him so
few times....
I don't k n o w where I am. I don't k n o w w h y I am.
I don't k n o w who I am. I t h o u g h t that I could get
over these feelings, but I guess that they'll stay to
haunt me until I die. A n d I s o much want n o t t o

Who'll teach me? How will I know?
