ALBANY STUDENT PRESS
Mr. and Mrs. John Lennon in Syracuse
by Steve Aminoff
The following
is the
transcript
of one of the best press
conferences
I've ever heard or read
about. My preconceived
notions
about
what
such a
gathering
would be like were very strong as
I entered
the gorgeous
Eversbn
Museum in Syracuse. I was taken
aback by not only the
opulence
with which food and
cocktails
were served, but the scene of the
reception
before the actual
conference. It struck me to be something out of one of those radical
chic parties, complete
with
the
straight people
throwing
expressions like "Right on" and
"Outa-sight" around, as well as your
few token longhairs (yours
truly
and
niy
photographer,
Marty
Amerikaner,
very much
included).
John and Yoko
were in good
spirits as they entered the theatre
section of the museum, where the
meeting was to be held. I managed
to ask how they felt, and John
said, "Nervous,
as usual."
They
sat down, talked to each other for
a while and John sang a little "Is
everybody happy? You betcha life
we are?" instead of the
customary
"Testing
1...2...3...-1..."
Some
courtesy
poses for the
cameras,
and we're ready to begin:
Y O K O : Hello. T h a n k you very
much for coming t o d a y . Most
people probably had to c o m e
d o w n from New York all the way
to here and I'm very grateful for
that.
Many
people
would
probably q u e s t i o n w h y we're doing an art show anyway in a
m u s e u m , you k n o w , because the
art world is supposed t o be dead
and especially the museum scene
is a dead scene. And, n o w , when
the whole world is in such crisis,
why should we be doing an art
s h o w in a museum'.' People are
starving in the East and all t h a t
and it seems like a silly thing t o
do.
JOHNi Nonetheless, my dear,
YOKO*. I t h o u g h t of t h a t , t o o . I
was wondering why I'm still an
artist, why I still consider myself
an artist when m y friends are
taking guns and ready to fight the
establishment
and
trying
to
change t h e world as violent revolutionaries.... And then I really
found myself thinking that I really d o n ' t go for d e s t r u c t i o n . I'd
like t o change the world t o o , but I
d o n ' t w a n t t o take a gun t o d o it
And m a n y of us, especially o u r
generation, people are very imp a t i e n t . Peace is n o t gonna c o m e
unless all the violent feeling in the
world are c o m p l e t e l y gone and
that s o u n d s like an idealistic, optimistic idea, b u t it can be d o n e .
Peace is n o t a formal s u b s t a n c e .
You c a n ' t just have peace on a
surface. You have to dispense
with all violent feelings. T h e first
t i m e a child learns a b o u t a feeling
is when he starts saying, " M o m my,
mommy,"
and
mommy
d o e s n ' t answer him. T h e n he
...photos

starts to hit m o m m y . T h a t ' s the
first violence t h a t h e learns and
that's because he c a n ' t c o m m u n i cate with his m o m m y and the
same thing with e v e r y b o d y . All of
us has a d e s p e r a t e need for
c o m m u n i c a t i o n . And I think this
world n o w has t w o classes. One is
the class t h a t can c o m m u n i c a t e .
T h e o t h e r is the class that can't
c o m m u n i c a t e for o n e reason or
a n o t h e r . T h e y think the people
w h o can c o m m u n i c a t e are people
who
are
privileged.
They're
talented and t h e y ' r e different. In
this s h o w here, I'd like t o prove
the fact that you d o n ' t need
talent to be an artist. Artist is just
a frame of m i n d . A n y b o d y can be
an
artist
and
anybody
can
c o m m u n i c a t e if t h e y ' r e desperate
e n o u g h . T h e r e ' s n o such thing as
imagination of artists. Imagination
would c o m e o u t of necessity.
Even the best art.sit, if they d o n ' t
have the d e s p e r a t i o n , they would
be dried up and they won't have
any imagination. S o , there is n o
talent, n o professionalism, (here's
no nothing. All you have t o d o is
to be yourself.
This m u s e u m .show is a show
thai you will see of a very untalcnled artist w h o is just desperate for commitment ion. I h o p e
you will, after seeing this s h o w .
realize y o u r o w n bag and start
communicating
because
total
c o m m u n i c a t i o n e q u a l s peace and
t h a t is what I think ;n lists can si ill
do
to
change
the
world.
(Applause).
J O H N : My s t a t e m e n t
is, 'I
agree. ' T h a n k you.
i-REHS: Y o k o , Is il possible to
have a world without anxiely,
without
fear,
without
hatred
through communication?
Y O K O : Yes, definitely. But you
see, t h e c o m m u n i c a t i o n media is
getting m o r e and m o r e developed,
b u t n o t yet. People are thinking,
"Well, they d o n ' t have the cont r o l , " so they'll give il u p , bul we
have to find m a n y ways of
c o m m u n i c a t i o n s . Just_ d o n ' I rely
on TV and radio only, There are
m a n y o t h e r ways, we can d o it.
P R E S S : Would you say thai
a n y o n e can be an artist.
Y O K O : Yes, definitely. Everyb o d y is an artist, you k n o w .
P R E S S : If I t h r e w an apple or
an egg t o the wall, can a n y b o d y
call t h a t art?
Y O K O : Yes. If t h a t q would
c o m m u n i c a t e witli s o m e b o d y , if
that would move s o m e b o d y , as
t h a t would e n c o u r a g e s o m e b o d y
else to d o s o m e t h i n g else, Anything is art if you can influence
people by it, you k n o w , and if
you can c o m m u n i c a t e yourself
with it. Yes.
P R E S S : I just w a n t to say t o
J o h n t h a t I love you very m u c h .
J O H N : Well, t h a n k y o u .
P R E S S : Mow d o y o u c o m p a r e
film making with o t h e r forms of
media?
Y O K O : I moan, it's the s a m e
thing, you k n o w . I tbuik t h a t the
message is t h e m e d i u m , n o t the
o t h e r way a r o u n d .
P R E S S : Where would y o u place
the a u d i e n c e in all this?
YOK*0: We're all a u d i e n c e and
w e ' r e all artists you k n o w . I d o n ' t
believe in just showing a l u m p of
s o m e s t o n e or s o m e t h i n g and that
this is art work, a p p l a u d i n g s o m e
sort of narcissism of the artist. I
believe in c o m m u n i c a t i n g in a
sense of allowing o t h e r people t o
have experience.
P R E S S : Why have you chosen
the Everson m u s e u m as y o u r place
of c o m m u n i c a t i n g ?
Y O K O : I'm just very overwhelmed by the m u s e u m itself
and I think Jim Harris was very
c o u r a g e o u s in taking a c h a n c e on
me.
J O H N : T h e y ' r e in a week's time,
is t h a t right? T h e film s h o w is in a
week's time and the w o m a n w h o
was surprised by the titles of
t h e m , she has n o t h i n g to worry
a b o u t . " E r e c t i o n " m e a n s the erection of a hotel.
Y O K O : And rape is a conceptual race. I m e a n , if the woman thought (hat she had to hide
her catalogue from her children,
then I d o n 'I k n o w whal she's
doing with newspapers every day,
you k n o w , because there's lots of
things in papers Ilia I you c a n ' t ,
thai you have lo hide t h e m .
P R E S S : How do you feel aboul
s o m e o n e like Charlie Manson he
iug encouraged by this and calling
it his way of c o m m u n i c a t i n g ?
Y O K O : Whal y o u ' r e saying is.
"Well, there are some people who
got hurt with the knife, you
k n o w . They nil their fingers with
knives so let's s t o p making knives,
let's s t o p producing knives,
P R E S S : Whal is your response
to those b y p r o d u c t s ?
J O H N : Keep making knives.
P R E S S : Who has influenced you
the most'.'
Y O K O : Oh everlhing the sun,
the stars, the m o o n . Everything
has influenced me.
P R E S S : One of the
artists
you've
worked
with,
Frank
Zappa, almost ridicules the idea of
world love. What was it like working with Zappa?
J O H N: Fran k Zappa is a very
sensitive artist and whatever sort
of image he puts out is sorl of
black, inverted political reasons
but it's also for a laugh t o o , you
k n o w , I mean but he's a serious
artist, t o o , I mean, he was beautiful, you k n o w , b u t we performed
with him and we enjoyed it very
much.
P R E S S : How d o e s Y o k o overturn the image of J a p a n e s e women being so subservient, you
k n o w , washing your teeth and all
the rest of it.
Y O K O : I never t h o u g h t of
J a p a n e s e women as such so I
w o u l d n ' t k n o w , you know. It's a
kind of J a p a n e s q u e image that the
Westerns would have, p r o b a b l y ,
h u t I never t h o u g h t of it from
that angle. I think t h a t American
w o m e n are p r e t t y subservient,..
J O H N : T h e J a p a n e s e in ihc past
had a c o m p l e t e l y female d o m i nated society. I d o n ' t k n o w w h a t
h a p p e n e d t o it, b u t it was p r e t t y
good when t h e y had it.
Y O K O : It's still d o m i n a t e d by
w o m e n in a way...if I could express s o m e t h i n g I've seen in y o u ,
John.
P R E S S : Y o k o , J o h n , may I express s o m e t h i n g ? Do you believe
that bi-sexuality is t h e natural
state, and that people just repress
their feelings? ( L a u g h t e r ) .
JOHN:
You've
been
seeing
things. E v e r y o n e ' s got their o w n
hag, right?
P R E S S : Were you angry or were
you sad when you w r o t e ' H o w D o
You S l e e p ? '
J O H N . Both. " H o w Do You
S l e e p " started off in a m o r e abstract form a year and a half ago
and then it just s o r t of formed
itself t h r o u g h anger and sadness.
It's sort of like an o u t b u r s t . . . a n d
my o u t b u r s t in song, n o t any o t h e r
media at the m o m e n t , unless
y o u ' r e into (browing eggs a r o u n d .
P R E S S : Why is this y o u r first
show?
M A N A G E R : I really think t h e r e
is a w o m a n ' s p r o b l e m . In my o w n
past d e v e l o p m e n l . I got my own
ethical ion and in t e r m s of the
m u s e u m scene in the c o u n t r y ,
ihey are totally unfair.
Y O K O : I have foil the pain of
being a w o m a n in this society.
P R E S S : Is there any religious
influence thai has affected y o u r
art, such as yoga?
Y O K O : Not yoga so m u c h , I'd
say Zen Buddhism has influenced
me greatly,
P R E S S : lias the feelings which
inspired you to write, " I s o l a t i o n "
changed?
J O H N : Well, Y o k o and I slill
feel (he same. Y o k o helped m e
with thai song, " I s o l a t i o n " but
the credit was s o m e h o w misol'l
d\.w to chauvinism, p r o b a b l y on
my part. Occasionally, of c o u r s e , I
feel
difficulty
on
my
part.
Occasionally I feel isolated, sometimes I d o n ' t . But I'm like everybo d y
else:
Ha p py sad
isolated e v e r y b o d y
loves m e
e v e r y b o d y hated me I love everyb o d y I bate e v e r y b o d y . S a m e as
a n y b o d y else.
P R E S S : S o m e people have mentioned you as the British Dylan...
J O H N : I'm n o t the British anything.
P R E S S : J o h n , could you relate
y o u r feelings on Attica?
J O H N : Attica was just a disgusting
piece
of
fascism,
(Applause).
P R E S S : What's the best way to
communicate?
Y O K O : It's all good. We try to
c o m m u n i c a t e on every level.
J O H N : In (Hi positions.
PRKSS: What was y o u r relationship with Dr. Janol'f and b o w long
did y o u stay witli h i m ?
J O H N : It was a c o u p l e of
m o n t h s , T h e r a p y for m e had
s o m e t h i n g . It was a hit musical for
me. T h e t h e o r y was a bit h o k u m
p o k u m . It's becoming a religion
and h e ' s b e c o m i n g tike a god or
something.
PRESS: T o o commercial?
J O H N : C o m m e r c i a l isn't necessarily a d i r t y word for m e . He had
his t h e o r y a n d his t h e r a p y and it
w o r k e d well e n o u g h t o have m e
here a n d n o t at h o m e .
P R E S S : Which a l b u m has given
you t h e m o s t satisfaction?
J O H N : I get t h e m o s t satisfaction o u t of a n y ulbum I'm doing
NOW.
P R E S S : I'd like t o wish J o h n a
happy birthday.
P R E S S : H o w would y o u teach a
child t o c o m m u n i c a t e ?
Y O K O : You d o n ' t have to teach
children—they k n o w .
J O H N : Children d o n ' t learn
c o m m u n i c a t i o n ; t h e y unlearn it
gradually t h r o u g h the s y s t e m . My
o w n child looked at s o m e of the
art in o u r h o m e and u n d e r s t o o d it
on his o w n child-like level.
P R E S S : John, what was the thing
t h a t caused you to b e c o m e radicalized?
J O H N : It's when did I not bec o m e radical a n d find myself
again. I was always a radical because I was always getting i n t o
trouble—that was radical e n o u g h ,
w h e t h e r il was school or s o c i e t y w h a t e v e r il was. During the Beatle

United Fund Appeal
Seeks 'Fair Share'
T h e a n n u a l United F u n d - R e d Cross J o i n t Appeal c a m p a i g n began
here on S e p t e m b e r 2K. T h e 1972 goal is $ 2 , 2 9 9 , 0 6 6 , an increase of
•1.8% from last year.
T h i r t y - t h r e e voluntary agencies are s u p p o r t e d by the J o i n t Appeal.
Services for t h e emotionally disturbed, for t h o s e in need of e m e r g e n c y
aid, for t h e LaSalle School, and t h e Arbor Hill C o m m u n i t y Center,
and m a n y o t h e r agencies are aided by a Fair Share C o n t r i b u t i o n . T h e
J o i n t Appeal channels m o n e y to the most urgent needs by planning
and b u d g e t i n g , helps to avoid duplication of agency services, and
keeps a d m i n i s t r a t i o n costs of fund-raising to a m i n i m u m .
This year's appeal t h e m e is " H e l p People, Help P e o p l e , " and t h a t is
just what y o n will be doing when y o u give y o u r Fair Share.

we're worth listening to
This leaves the Democrats: all six of them (so far.) Humphrey,
Muskie, McGovern, Harris, Jackson and Lindsay. Matching
Humphrey against Nixon (again) would be a mistake, since no
matter whal Hubert says people will remember Ihe l%X
Humphrey. Muskie suffers from Ihe l%Ks as well, bul has
weathered it belter and now does best of all Democrats in Ihe
polls. He hurl himself recently with his remark about the
chances of a black VP nominee. His supporters have pointed out
that "at least he was honest." He cerlainly wasn't diplomatic.
One feels that the Maine senator will shortly run out of steam
unless he speaks up.
"Scoop" Jackson, a Democrat of the right wing has his
troubles, since the Democrats don't need a tnoderale conservative: Nixon theoretically fills that need. John Lindsay may have
saved himself by switching parlies, but he lost all liberal
Democratic support when he became a competitor instead of an
ally. The Democratic parly is wary of quick switchers; he has a
better chance than In his old party, but lc)72 will come too
soon for Mayor Lindsay.
This leaves McGovern and Harris, bath midwesterners, both
"grassroots" campaigners. Harris, however, is too grassroots:
support for the senator, who admits to being un-reelectable to
his current post, is largely local and rather sparse al that. Like
Lindsay, he is loo soon, though in Pred Harris' case, it's now or
never. This leaves George McGovern. who is longest in Ihe race
and least in the news. His stand has long been antiwar, and he
believes that the economic issue is directly lied lo lite War issue.
I have yet to hear thai from Ihe liig Labor candidates and
Richard Nixon.
And so as things stand now, George McGovern would seem
ihe best bel, Nol the surest, though; one wonders if he"ll
survive the primaries, especially since he lacks big money
backing. He is. however, one of the lew politicians worthy of
our liusl and more importantly, our hopes.

More on
the Guide
To the Editor:
You have already, no doubL,
been deluged with material from,
other campus newspapers conT
corning Mr. David A. Cavamtugh
and the Student Buyer's Guide.The purpose of this letter, therefore, is not to reiterate the facts,
with which I am certain you are
already familiar, but rather to
inform you of what actions Sierra
College and The INDIAN ifoe
taking against Mr. Cavanaugh and
the publication.
This past Wednesday, our Student Senate passed a resolution to
ban the Buyer's Guide from the
Siena campus, Mr. Cavanaugh will
be in formed by mail of this
action. A letter will also be sent lo
Mr. Cavanaugh by our vice president for student affairs, informing
him that he and his publication
are unwelcome on this campus.
The INDIAN is also considering
legal action against Mr. Cavanaugh
for two reasons:
1 )breaeh of eon tract. Last
year. The INDIAN signed a one
year contract with Associated
College Media, of which Mr.
Cavanaugh was (and stili is, legally) president. Ourcontract does
not expire until November 1 of
this year.
During the summer, for
reasons known only lo Mr.
Cavanaugh, he decided thai ACM
was no longer profitable (and
claims that he was in debt) and
decided to terminate his business.
However, he never legally went
out of business. He never filed a
petition of bankruptcy. Therefore, from a legal standpoint,
Cavanaugh, who is still supposed
to be acting as our "exclusive
agent" is not only breaching the
ACM contract; he is also in direct
competition (illegally), through
the Student Buyer's Guide, with
every college paper that signed the
ACM contract.
2) Mr. Cavanaugh sent a letter
to all of our advertisers during the
summer (a copy of this letter
should have been sent to you by
the RPI Polytechnic) in which he
actually discourages businesses
from advertising in our papers and
encourages them to advertise in
the Buyer's Guide. This letter not
only contributes evidence to
Cavanaugh's blatant breach of
contract, but may be construed,
we feel, as damaging to the
character of each of our papers.
This may provide additional
grounds for a lawsuit against Mr.
Cavanaugh.
I would encourage each of you
to consider similar actions against
Mr. Cavanaugh. He has demonstrated that he is interested only
in making a profit at our expense
and The INDIAN, for one, will
not permit him to continue.
If enough campus newspapers are
interested in initiating legal action
against Mr. Cavanaugh, it may be
possible for us to take him to
court as a group—a kind of "class
action" suit. I would appreciate
hearing your ideas on this matter
as soon as possible, either by mail
or by phone, 785-9671.
Thank you for your time and
interest.
Sincerely,
Peter A. Harrigan
Editor-in-Chief
The INDIAN
Phone Tax
Friends:
Being touched by frustration,
suffering, and anger stemming
from the fact that all people do
not have the freedoms of life, we
feel a responsibility and a commitment to our moral conscience to
persuade our government, (who
are individuals empowered by us),
to change policies and actions so
that they are beneficial to our
brothers and sisters in this country and around the world.
Though we are not acting in
accordance with the law, we feel
that by paying the ten percent
excise tax on the telephone bill
(passed in the Tax Reform Act of
1966 solely for the purpose of
supporting our involvement in
Vietnam) we are contributing to
the murder and destruction in
Indo-China, which has taken
priority over the basic and urgent
needs of our people. We have
usurped our neighbors right to
live.
If you feel you can join us, Call!

These Are The
FSA Bought...
ALBANY STUDENT PRESS

Two Views From Fuller Road
What do SUNYA Security, Food Service, and Edward D. Stone's architects all have in common? They
are all related to 70 Fuller Road!
Malcom Corbiey, Director of Food Service, and his staff, occupied 70 Fuller Road in 1970. Rent charged
by FAS, owner of 70 Fuller Road, to Food Service was $1,000 per month. (Food Service, part of FSA
paid FSA--on paper! If you can't make money from faculty tenants, try and make money off
yourself!)
With $12,000 annual rental income on paper to
FSA from Food Service, it was whittled away to a
paper profit of $2,256. Maintenance payroll was
$4,098; actual repairs amounted to $1,794.
The Town of Guilderland has the west side of
Fuller Road zoned "residential." Food Service is a
$4 million business. Mnlcom's crew had to leave.
FSA had an empty building, eager to fill it to gain
"real" income. SUNYA is critically short of office
space. With the cancellation of East and West
Podium Extensions, Stone's architects (on sight
inspection teams) were cut in number and no longer
require all the space in the architect's building on
perimeter road. The architects are moving into 70
Fuller Road. Security is to move into the architects'
building.
John Buchoff, Director of the Physical Plant, said
that "to show good will to our neighbors on Fuller
Road, the architects will park their cars near security
and walk across Fuller Road to work. Curtains will be
put on the windows, and the building will retain a
residential look."
Buchoff would not comment on the zoning law, but said, "the architects are not a family; but, they
not a busienss either."
Two Views Of 6 Warren
A few houses from 70 Fuller
Road, this dilapidated structure is
the eyesore of Warren Street and
the blackeye of FSA housing.
Acquired in December, 1968, for
almost $20,000, (il must have
looked better then). 6 Warren
needs roof repairs, siding replaced, and a couple of good
coats of paint. 6 Warren is lor sale
•• asking price $2;),000 •• (are they
joking?).
Besides the complaints of FSA's
"extra legal" activities at 70
Fuller Road, neighbor complaints
to fix 6 Warren have also fallen on
deaf ears. Repairs and maintenance in 1970 amounted to $170;
payroll charged against rental income of 6 Warren for maintenance-$758.
Paul Yonkers, the man in charge
of FSA maintenance was directed
by Robert Cooiey, Executive
Director FSA, not to talk with
reporters. Cooiey said he personally would answer all questions.
"Why is there such a poor ratio
of payroll to actual maintenance
costs? Why have FSA properties
been sorely neglected?"
Cooiey has answered all inquieries in the past; but efforts to
contact him recently have failed.
Total losses in 1970 for 6
Warren-$l,209.
Leased Houses Losers
16 A Norwood Street, leased from Judge John Hull-Harris, member
of the Albany County School Board. Holt-Harris' school board seat is
being hotly contested because "he does not reside in Albany."
Holt-Harris received $2,100 from FSA. FSA ill lurn only collected
$2,220 annual income rental. Repairs and maintenance amounted to
$140 In 1970, while 16 A Norwood's share of maintenance payroll
amounted to $7,'!8.
With only a $120 margin of profit between the Itoll-Harris lease to
FSA and FSA's rental income, losses in 1070 were $1,092.
FSA also leases 9 Waverly Place (not shown). Leased to FSA tor
$1,620, FSA collects only $1,1)20 in rental income. Repairs and
maintenance were $H.7() while 9 Waverly's shale of maintenance
payroll was $635. Losses incurred on 0 Waverly--$606.

Best FSA House Big Annual Loser
05 Highland Drive, opposite Stuyvesant Plaza, is Lhe flagship
of FSA housing, not just because of the cost, $120,000, but also
because of the ship's company she keeps.
John Hartley, Vice President of Management and Planning, Mildred
()ulining!)am, President Benezet's secretary, and Louise Kreitzer,
Khbort Cooley's secretary are all new residents. Cooiey, Executive
Director of FSA had rents raised to reflect area rents. For some
tenants at 65 Highland however, rents were raised after the Nixon
wage price freeze took affect. Rent rollbacks are due, but FSA is
short on hard cash.
(if) Highland Drive also housed two gentlemen from SUNY—Central;
one was Oscar Landford, Vice Chancellor. This violates the FSA
housing principle that FSA houses would be used by the SUNYA
Community. Dr. Milton Olson, FSA Treasurer and former member of
the Hoard of Directors said, "I hope that these people were not in
competition for housing with our people."
Losses in l!)70, before rent raises could lake effect, $5,792 for 65
Highland Drive.
Atmospheric Sciences Had An FSA House
1429 Western Avenue, acquired
in September, 1965, for approximately $,'15,000, this house has
yet to match other Albany properties in increasing appraisal
values. 1129 is "for sale-asking
price-$HH,000." If repairs are
made, FSA "might get back what
they paid for il," an FSA official
claims.
Rented to the Atmospheric
Science Research Center for $1100
per month, furnished and FSA
assuming maintenance, taxes,
utilities and water rents, a $1100
renewal and replacement charge,
(dubious for a not for profit
corporation) put 1429 $881 in the
red for 1970.
When tile lease ran out, Robert
Cooiey asked for a $150 increase
in monthly rent. Atmospheric
Science Research Center did not
approve the rent hike and did not
renew the lease. Rent was paid
from research grants and 14 29 was
used to house visiting scientists
and lecturers. 1-129 now sits
empty, in need or repairs, and for
sale.

Friday night, the University presented two of the best examples
of contemporary folk in America
today. Carly Simon is a clear
eyed, powerful singing Manhattonite who sings simple acoustic
stuff,Livingston Taylor plays anything from old rock and roll to
Coca-Cola commercials, with
much self-assurance and stage presence.
Carly Simon came out first. She
sits on a stool with her acoustic
guitar, and begins to play "One
More Time", a song from her first
album. She has a backup band
consisting of a pianist, bassist and
drummer. Her music is primarily
acoustic, with some occasional
background from an electric guitar. Personally, 1 feel she would
do much better bein^ entirely
acoustic, especially hecaii.se I he
drums are often overhearing and
do harm to any spiritual feeling
thai folk music should have. The
performance was competent, yet
uninspiring. She sings quite well
though. There were, however, a
tew numbers that were outstanding; there was a Kris KrislolTerson
number called "I've Cot to Have
You", which was vers powerfully
performed as Carly"s voice is quite
strong ;\n^ womanly. There was
also some interesting guitar work
from the bass player, an ex-('rillers member, (for s-iTI you Critters
freaks on! then'). The nexl song
performed was entitled "Anticipation", which is Ihe title of her
new album, lo be released in three

of "Joe," seems more at ease with
a satire than social commentary.
The film is marvelously paced and
wonderfully free-wheeling. Avildsen's control of the comic situations and his ability to interweave
and hold together a running gag
are given full and noteworthy
exposition.
Avildsen has assembled a fine
cast of comic actors, including
Allen Garfield as the detective,
whose main appeal involves an
urge to clean up his apartment
(done in early Brownsville) and to
press his perenially rumpled suits.
He's such a loveable selemeil
you're pleasantly surprised when
his investigatory efforts actually
u ncover something. Madeline
Leitoux. the lean, husky-voiced
female investigator is a marvelous
dead pan comedienne and Devin
Coldenberg deserves no small
praise for his portrayal of a 69
year old millionaire pervert.
For all the insanity, strange premises and characters we are asked
to accept, "Cry Uncle" remains a
remarkably believable movie. It's
a movie for the fun of it. Catch it

with Eric Lonshein and the
"Saturday Night of Gold"
known as "James Taylor's Brother." Yet, Liv seems to have
managed to break away from this
association, by developing his own
style. While James sings the blues,
it's that rockin' pneumonia that
seems to have influenced Livingston.
He was accompanied by friend
Walter Robinson playing bass.
(Standup bass, mind you; not an
electric one). Liv opened up with
a couple of songs from his first
album: "Hush A Bye" and "In My
Reply." He took the audience out
of this folkie mood when he
broke into Chuck Berry's "Monkey Business." From here he went
into a cheerful little tune, "Sit on
Back." After paying a small homage to the Beatles, Liv sang "If I
Needed Someone," in a very slow,
sweet voice. He did some more
numbers from his album, Then,
believe it or not, he did "Somewhere over the Rainbow." I think
I prefer Judy Garland's version,
but it was nice to see that some
songs do last over the year. Liv
has a new album coming out this
month, so there was also plenty of
stuff from that. There wore two
more surprises in his set; McCartney's "With a Little Help from My
Friends," done with the "Taylor
touch," and something else his
brother performs: a Coca Cola
commercial, which was a change
of pace, if nothing else. At the
end of the hour, Livingston went
over U) the piano where he played
"Be That Way," a song he wrote
for his sister Kate's album.

-The proposal was introduced by
Student
Association
President
Michael L a m p e r t .
•The premise or
foundation
u p o n which this new S t u d e n t Association is to be funded is particularly i n t e r e s t i n g . U is argued that
since the present S.A. s t r u c t u r e
fails t o meet t h e needs of minority groups on this c a m p u s (transln-
t i o n : t h e S t u d e n t Association is a

organization, the E.O.P. S t u d e n t
Association, is needed to meet
t h o s e needs.
T h e C o n s t i t u t i o n u n d e r which
the S t u d e n t Association is presently o p e r a t i n g was passed in a

and fair the C o n s t i t u t i o n which
c r e a t e d t h e S.A. s t r u c t u r e ? If the
s t r u c t u r e established by this cons t i t u t i o n is unable to meet the
needs of our black and Puerto
Ilican s t u d e n t s , why didn't Mr,
Lampert oppose the Constitution
as it was p r o p o s e d last yeur as
racist? T h e reason, of c o u r s e , is
that t h e C o n s t i t u t i o n is n o t and
n e i t h e r is the S t u d e n t Association
structure.
T h e racism we should c o n c e r n
ourselves with is the racism of this
E.O.P. S t u d e n t Association, T h e
e s t a b l i s h m e n t of o n e S t u d e n t Association for whites and a n o t h e r

clouds the moral question here is
the fact that the bigots m a k i n g

while Needless to say, if Uov.
(leorge Wallace had p r o p o s e d such
a plan for the University ,,l' Alabama, s t u d e n t s here would d e r i d e

black and P u e r t o Rican s t u d e n t s

aimed at blacks a n d P u e r t o Rieans
only, whereas a skiing a p p r o p r i a tion is designed to help skiers,
whatever their color.
