" T h e Ballad of George J a c k s o n " is t h e subject of s o m e c o n t r o v e r s y
for t w o reasons, d e p e n d i n g o n w h o y o u talk to. S o m e say t h a t
because Dylan sings, " . . . h e w o u l d n ' t take shit from n o o n e , " t h a t t h e

Early last week a group of female s t u d e n t s a t American University in 'Washington, D.C., a private Catholic s u p p o r t e d universtiy, sat in at t h e p r e s i d e n t ' s office
for m o r e than four hours—their
d e m a n d was t h a t t h e university
allow a gynecologist t o have office
space at t h e universtiy a n d advise
women students on abortion and
birth c o n t r o l .
T h e president of t h e Catholic
school, George Williams did n o t
think t h e d e m a n d by t h e w o m e n
was in the best interests of t h e
school or of t h e c h u r c h . Warrants
for t h e arrest of t h e w o m e n followed the sit-in.
T h u r s d a y , the w o m e n , w h o say
they have n o leaders a n d no formal n a m e for their organization,
held a press c o n f e r e n c e t o explain
their d e m a n d . More s t u d e n t s gathered and the rally t h a t followed
involved more than a gynecologist
in residence—the s t u d e n t s w a n t e d

costs, m o r e c o n t r o l of university
policy a n d several o t h e r d e m a n d s .
T h e rally spread to the administration building where a b o u t 2 0 0
s t u d e n t s , men a n d w o m e n , took
over t h e building. T h e infirmary
and t h e cafeteria were also disrupted by the s t u d e n t s a n d t h e
road passing through t h e university Wits blocked for a while with
desks and chairs.
T h e sit-in in t h e a d m i n i s t r a t i o n
building ended when the w o m e n
left, saying that t h e president h a d
agreed to talk to t h e m a b o u t their
demand,
Friday t h e c a m p u s was q u i e t

editorial comment
fsme, wJ wf COME TO
End the Tax
One of the greater injustices perpetrated o '
this campus has nothing to do with the
Administration or the Faculty or even the
Legislature. The mandatory tax, supposedly
self-imposed by the student body, is entirely
the creation of the students themselves.
Each year we hold elections in which about
8% of the students vote generally for their
friends or fraternity brothers. A voluntary tax,
on the other hand, would give the students, all
students, a monetary vote. Those in power
would have to program to please the public or
face a lack of funds the next year. To us it
seems a much more democratic way of funding
S.A. groups.

To Hie Editor,
In reply to Paul Ueberman who misdirected
himself to the question o f the proposed fjradujite
membership fee, 1 would like to .stale the following:
There is no conspiracy, Paul, we just want to
decrease the student activity fee for yrad students
from $.'t()/year to $IO/year. We also want to provide
independent dynamic leadership for gritds, not
token leadership under the aeyis of the uiider^rad
Student Association.
We will only offer grads what Ihey want offered in
the way of social and educational services, after we
lake a survey by written mailed questionnaire ( i f wu
vole mandatory), If you want no services the fee
collected will be returned via a reduction in next
year's fee.
There'ure, (iraduales Beware (to steal a line from
you, Paul). There's a few deceivers around who will
tell you lo Vote Voluntary, pay more if you want a
student tax card, and lo hades with the only
association which can, will, and does protect your
interests (See how in our December newsletter,
Paul )

Since the heeinninc; of September, the residents
of Cayuga and Adirondack hulls', of Indian Quad,
have experienced al least tell fire alarms. There
might have been more since I am not always here.
The alarm usually sounds late at night disturbing
everyone's nightly activites. The one last night
occurred al three am. Most people were actually
asleep which is ran- at Ihat.early hour because of the
loud stereos.
Why do these senseless disturbances occur? Is
there some Insomniac who is actually sick*' If tins is
the case let us help him. If it is a person who thinks
it is a good joke lo pull the alarm, let us lake action
againsl him. Possibly the lire detection system is
broken. Can'l il he fixed'.'
Should this disturbance continue, people will no
longer respond lo the alarm. A disaster could occur
similar lo Ihe tragic fire in France of lasl year. Is the
answer to have security patrol Ihe building'.' 1 do1 not
think so. Th
dy way to end this nonsense is for
the students in Cayuga and Adirondack halls to lake
action. We must find the cause of the problem and
abolish il one way or another. It is our problem and
we musl solve it it seems no one else is going to.

OF DEC. LC 24
by Roberto Di Scipio
OPINION
A popular shibboleth in this
country, especially amidst the
media "in-crowd" is "freedom of
the press." Almost equally popular are "all the news fit to print"
and "the public's right to know."
In battles between Agnew and the
press, the press always won. In the
war between the Pentagon and the
press, the press again won. Indeed
as we all know, the "militaryindustrial complex" is the most
powerful
institution in this
nation. Or is it? Marshall McLuhan pointed out that the
"medium is the message"; its
power lo control a situation and
pulverize people is incredible. The
great I t a l o - French
general
Napoleon Bonaparte said one
newspaper is a better weapon than
a thousand soldiers. While many
people gripe about the power of
the military and busines complexes in this country, most have
failed to rombai the increasing
power of the unelected capitalist
elite that controls the American
mass media.
The fact is that the mass media
in this country does not give us
the real facts of the news, only
the distortions of its bigoted
views. Its basic aim is two-fold—
power and money. Bow to the
great god—Mammon! To obtain
these things, as all good Capitalist
institutions it must sell its product. To sell its products, it gives
us unbridled sensationalism. Advertisers, interested in profit not
principles, sponsor the sensationalist papers. We of course have
two levels of readers: the high
brow bigots (who patronize the
New York Times and Post) and
the low brow bigots (the Daily
News and the Times Union)-both papers are equally distorted;
only the high brows read more
sophisticated distortions. Now,
the Daily News, New York Times
and Post and the movie czars of
Hollywood, plus the T.V. networks and the publishing companies all have one common
scapegoat - the ancient Sicilian
Honored Society or more commonly the Mafia. You qualify for
the Mafia only if you are Italian
and if you steal one apple, If you

steal two apples and are Italian
you've made It to the Cosa Nostra—that intimate spider web of
dark, sinister Latin hoods whose
world conspiracy spans all continents and is guided from its
headquarters in the Sicilian capital
city of Palermo. Those exotic
looking, evil banditti of the U.S.
underworld must give untold orgasms to some insipid American
reader looking for excitement. As
everyone knows it is "those
Italians" who control all vice in
America and the world'gambling,
smut, prostitution, the numbers,
drugs, after-hours clubs, etc. Indeed if there's anything you don't
like, you can blame it on "those
Italians". Though Meyer Laiisky is
the biggest illegal crook in America, he receives little publicity. He
doesn't qualify for news since he's
not an Kalian crook. Though the
Rockefellers, the Kennedys, Carnegies, etc. would make any alleged "mafioso" look like some
local punk in the Bronx, you can't
curse them with bad publicity.
Only Italians qualify. Besides,
these names don't tingle the spine
like Carmine (the Snake) Persico
or kid Genovese or Al Capone.
Somehow Italian hoods are geniuses at crime like the Germans
are geniuses in science. Macchiavelian criminality just flows in
their dark, Me di terra neaan blood.
These so-called capos are often
described very picturesquely as
Mafia chieftains. One automatically thinks of those evil
Mongol warlords who swept over
Europe! How colorful! And ' nryone knows of that seer*

the midst of very 20th century
New York. It's all very exciting
and it sells better than any numbers racket. The fact that all this
i whemenlly racist and stigma;r/.es an entire ethnic group hardly
disturbs anyone.
Now when it comes to problems
in Italian communities— such as a
dearth of poverty programs, a lack
of bilingual and bicultural educational programs, the second
highest dropout rate in New York
City (after Puerto Ricans) the
highest white ethnic drug addiction rate, a mass protest move-

ment: all this does not phase the
media. Indeed it took the Times
two months to report the fact
that between 500 to 5,000 Italians were protesting daily against
F.B.I, racist tactics against our
people. Any other minority with
10 men protesting makes at least
some notice. Suddenly Italians
just aren't, really newsworthy.
They did, however, make the
news when they were denounced
by nearly rich tenants as being
" n o i s y " . Another stereotype.
That merits news! Even after the
mass rally of almost 250,000 Italians in Columbus Circle on June
29, 1970 against discrimination
and defamation, the racist media
was unmoved. They were only
interested in the handful of
alleged racketeers in the midst of
the thousands. Ensuing mass protests against every media and
petitions did not move the powerful media "fuhrers," either. Protests to the Human Rights Commission by dozens of Italian organizations was equally unsuccessful. The media's answer: more
stigmatization. Indeed, what
chance does a powerless ethnic
minority have against the media
czars if the military-industrial
complex can't even budge them?
Of course, the Times has four
Italians on an editorial staff of
500.
The racism of Hollywood movies goes unscathed. "Americans of
Italian Descent" showed in a study of over 100 Hollywood movies
dealing with Italian-Americans
that uil dealt in stereotypes.
None showed the least empathy
for the Italian people. There is
"Stiletto/' "Inside the Mafia,"
"Pay or Die," "The Sicilian Clan,"
"Al Capone," "The Brotherhood," "The Untouchables." etc.
ad muise um. While Hollywood
stereotypes of blacks and Indian
at least moved the conscience of
the American public, they could
care less aboul the racist stigma
on Italians.
When the festu of San Gennaro
was twice raided by F.B.I, stormtroopers, when the working cla;,o
Italian community of Corona was
threatened by annihilation for an
athletic field by the Prince of
Graeie Mansion, while there is
only one Italian principal of [)'.\ in
the city high school system, the
limosine liberals of the media nfused to bleed. Now Forest Hills is
"threatened" with low-cost housing, and lo and behold the New
York Times calls for sympathy for
thai upper middle class neighborhood. Certainly if Bhbach's name
was Anthony Itnperiale, the Tunes
Would just bleat bigot No one
looks for causes when dealing
with Italians.
Last July, Peter Mollo of
C.I.A.O. (Congress of ItalianAmerican Organizations) noted
"we Italians have long been brainwashed with this melting pot
myth. We have chosen to remain
separate. Indeed now more than
ever we must turn inward to serve
our own communities." No one
else gives a damn. If Italians don't
fight for our own people, no one
will. The time is long overdue that
all people, both Italians and
strutiiera, take control of the media which affects us. The press,
the cinema, the T.V. and radio
channels do not belong to wealthy
capitalist interested in money but
to all the people. Italians may be
the most blatant victims of media
bigotry but are by no menns the
only ones. Blacks, Puerto Ricans,
Chicanos, Indians, Orientals, Poles,
and the workers and the poor are
also victims. It is time we joined
together to fight the most power
ful evil in America—the real Un*

media and it will die from starvation. Cultural genocide can end
only if you refuse to support the

Danes Top P.S.. Face Tough Holiday
by Bruce Msiggin
r h e Albany S t a t e basketball team opened its
SUNY c o n f e r e n c e season with a big victory over
previously u n b e a t e n P i t t s b u r g h , H2-68, in a game
held at the University G y m last Wednesday.
It was n o t the best played game, as both t e a m s
shot only .'iO^f from the field. Both teams were
h a m p e r e d by p o o r officiating, Coach Dick Sailers
and Plattsburgh s coach N o r m Law, plus the crowd
were a m a z e d at s o m e of the calls of the referees.
T h e key to the g a m e was Albany's ability t o
o u t - r e b o u n d a much taller P i t t s b u r g h team, 5*1-48-.
In the first half Albany put it all together. From the
o p e n i n g tapoff, t h e Danes took the lead which (hey
never relinquished. Albany o n l y c o m m i t t e d 6 turnovers in the first half c o m p a r e d to IK for P i t t s burgh. Albany also stayed o u t of foul trouble,
which had h u r t t h e m in previous games. J o h n
Q u a t t r o c h i , the D a n e s ' q u a r t e r b a c k , had the offense
moving, as he c h i p p e d in 1 1 points, I assists, plus 7
big steals. Albany blew P i t t s b u r g h off the c o u r t in
the closing m i n u t e s when Byron Miller, Q u a t t r o c h i ,
Bob Rossi and Don Joss all hit field goals as the
Danes raced t o a 4 3 - 2 5 half time lead.

In the u p c o m i n g m d n t h , the Albany Danes, n o w
2-1 overall, a n d 1-0 in league play, will get into the
heart of their tough s c h e d u l e . T h e y will play seven
games, including t h r e e league e n c o u n t e r s and the
Capitol District T o u r n a m e n t ,
In the second half, Albany reverted back to their
former style of play as they c o m m i t t e d n u m e r o u s
fouls and turnovers. Plattsburgh tried vainly t o
catch u p . Albany u p p e d their lead to 21 before
Plattsburgh s h o w e d a n y signs of life. The Cardinals
started t o use a full c o u r t press causing Albany t o
give t h e ball up m a n y t i m e s . P i t t s b u r g h ' s comeback _
was led by forward D o n Verkey, w h o p u m p e d in 26
points t o lead b o t h t e a m s in scoring.
However, P l a t t s b u r g h could never get closer than
12 p o i n t s . With 5 : 0 8 left in the game, the Great
Danes froze t h e ball. T h e t e a m displayed fine ball
c o n t r o l , h o l d i n g t h e ball o n c e for 30 seconds and
a n o t h e r t i m e for 4 2 s e c o n d s . Plattsburgh was forced
to foul A l b a n y in o r d e r t o get the ball back.
With 3 : 3 2 left Werner Kollin, w h o played a fine
game, was forced t o leave the game when he injured
his k n e e . In t h e final few m i n u t e s , Albany p o u r e d
on their offense again as Miller got a three-point
play and Reggie S m i t h hit a b u c k e t . Coach Sauers
then decided to e m p t y his bench and give s o m e of
the s u b s a c h a n c e t o run o u t the clock.
Smith led t h e Danes in scoring as he was 8-1-1
from the field and a t o t a l of 17 points. Miller and
Welch on b o t h had 15 points. Albany, now 2-1,

T h e first thing t h a t hits y o u when y o u re-listen t o

O t h e r songs on the album are simply fine musical
pieces that s o m e h o w hold u p well with age. T h e
m u s i c i a n s h i p is quite tight with the d r u m m i n g
especially good for a 50's group. T h e s a x o p h o n e
breaks are sharp a n d exciting and in songs like
" P o i s o n I v y , " a guitar takes over t h e spotlight,
infusing a little variety into the r h y t h m a n d blues
c o n t e x t . T h e most o u t s t a n d i n g aspect of the

h a r m o n i c a field helps give t h e a l b u m a little m o r e
flavor.
T h e biggest p r o b l e m is a lack o f material. T h e
a l b u m runs only slightly longer than a half h o u r and
this includes a couple of filler c u t s . Side t w o is

best social c o m m e n t a r i e s in q u i t e a while and is
musically d y n a m i c a n d well balanced. The music builds
for eight minutes and demands, y o u r a t t e n t i o n for every

the entire a l b u m . There is only o n e o t h e r fast song
on the a l b u m a n d it is a m i n a t u r e version of

2. The Penalty
( 1 9 2 0 , U S A ) D i r e c t o r : Wallace
Worsley - Starring Lon C h a n e y , this film tells t h e
macabre s t o r y of a child whose lets were unnecessarily amputated by a d o c t o r . He grows u p t o be a
super-criminal and locates the d o c t o r and seeks
revenge. While most of t h e m o r e famous Lon

tend lo seem flat and disappointing l o d a y , Chaney'a
earlier work for Clodwyn holds up e x t r e m e l y well.
The Penally
is one of the best, a full-blooded
melodrama in which the slightly " s i c k " and morbid
plot elements are played almost tongue-in-cheek.
Worsley also directed Chaney in 7'/ie Hunchback

arms and little organization began
to fight in the countryside depending on no one but the Bengali
people for their support.
Meanwhile, as guests of the Indian ruling class, the surviving
Awami League leadership set up
shop across the border in Calcutta, the largest city in West
Bengal, an Indian State. While
Marxist guerrillas initiated people's war in East Bengal, the
Awami Leaguers proclaimed
themselves the Provisional Government of Bangla Desh and sent
envoys around the world for public relations. Moved by the opportunity to obtain unchallenged
dominance in South Asia, India
happily recruited, trained, and
equipped a "liberation army"
from the ranks of the refugees. It
was, of course, carefully screened
to keep out anyone with a radical
past.

When asked a b o u t the council's

Alive and Well
on Western Ave.
by Mitchel Z o l e r
An ASP Feature
T h e lypical s t u d e n t ' s k n o w l e d g e
of w h a t lurks on Western Avenue
b e t w e e n Dunkin D o n u t s a n d Sluyvesant Plaza is scanty at best. This
is u n f o r t u n a t e since on a d u s t y ,
dirt road off Western lies w h a t
m u s t be o n e of t h e m o s t u n k n o w n
gems of culture a n d q u a i n t n e s s
that exist in Albany, the Bryn
Mawr book shop.
When t h e door is o p e n e d , one is
i m m e d i a t e l y faced with a c r a m p e d
vestibule whose walls are lined
with t h e s h o p ' s paperback collection. A foreshadowing oT the extensiveness of the b o o k s available
is given here, where, in just this
limited area, b o o k s ranging from
Shakespeare, science fiction, biographies, and bridge rules can he
found.
But the I rue book cunnoiseur
d o e s n ' t reach c o m p l e t e fulfillment
until his eyes focus upon the main
r o o m with its hardcover treasures.
At this he leaps i n t o t h e fiction
area a n d from there he goes racing, with eye blurring s p e e d ,
down aisles containing science
b o o k s , history, old records, child
ren's books, first e d i t i o n s
He is now starting to pan( from
exhaustion, but just then he spots
the stairs leading to t h e f a m o u s
Bryn Mawr b a s e m e n t ( w h e r e a
b o x full of b o o k s cost o n l y o n e
dollar. Taking t w o steps at a t i m e
he descends into the bowels of t h e
e a r t h , pausing only t o c h o o s e the
largest box available, a n d then
attacking t h e dust-covered s t a c k s
as i f th ey were abou t to be
snatched up by a book-freak competitior (In truth o u r hero's only
c o m p e t i t o r at the time was his
o w n traveling c o m p a n i o n . )
Copies of Melville, Shaw, Bacon,
D u m a s go flying toward t h e centrally located b o x , some reaching
their destination, some n o t . A
long s o u g h t issue of National G e o
graphic is found. Finally alll energy has been c o n s u m e d in this o n e
nova like burst. T h e boxes are, in
one way or a n o t h e r , pulled upstairs. Wearily, their owners s l u m p

about:
They opened in June o f I !MiS

of $1(1.01)0 per year since Mini

the b o o k selling business, notably
Vasser.
Twelve alumni from t h e area,
along with three friends work on a
purely v o l u n t a r y basis along with
two e m p l o y e d high school students. T h e alumni range in age
from t h e class of I91H through

While many s t u d e n t s have never heard of t h e University Council,
its i m p o r t a n c e should n o t he n u d e - e s t i m a t e d . Over the past few

responsibilities as naming buildings, overseeing buildings and
g r o u n d s , and r u b h c r s l a m p i n g p r o p o s e d university budgets. T o d a y ,
however, lhe Council has moved into making regulations governing lhe c o n d u c t of s t u d e n t s , r e c o m m e n d i n g major plans for t h e
