by Glenn von Nostitz Thii it the city: Albany, New York. The state capital js here. So to a port, a lot of banks, a few small industries, and about 130,000 Albanians. , Some people don't like Albany. They're mostly dissatisfied students and downstate legislators who spend only part of each year here. They complain incessantly about the cultural wasteland, "hick town" atmosphere, and the general lack of excitement in the capital city. Then there are those who really don't find the city so objectionable at all. Albany certainly has its share of faults, but on the whole they see it as little worse than any other American city its size. "Look at Alburquerque „ New Mexico or Urbana, Illinios" they tell us. "What do these cities have that's so exceptional?" They want to know why Albany is always singled out for extra criticism. Case in point: A story appeared recently in the Sunday New York Times Travel Section headlined, "Is Albany a Capital Offense?" The question was rhetorical as the story which followed was essentially a rehash of the oft-cited terrors of living and working in the state capital. The lead set the tone for the entire story: "You're in Albany either on business or by mistake." Urban Ills But is Albany really so much worse than other American cities of comparable size? Albany backers point out that it merely shares with most every other city the usual plethora of urban ills. It's not unusual, they claim, that all of the major downtown department stores have closed down or moved to the suburbs. Or that the major downtown hotels have gone out of business or become severely dilapidated in the face of stiff competition from suburban Holiday Inns. As in so many American cities, Albany's tomblike railroad station stands empty and splotched with pigeon droppings, a stark testament to days of heavy rail traffic. The city backers point to the main business thoroughfare. Albany's State Street is nothing but one long row of banking houses, a situation which is common in almost every American city. It's beginning to look a lot like Fifth Avenue. Even the names of the banks are the same: Chase Manhattan, Bank*of New York, Banker's Trust, Chemical Bank. A few small stores hang on, thanks mostly to the lunchtime crowds of office workers. As in numerous American cities, the riverfront area has been destroyed by the building of massive arterial highway systems which whisk workers into the city a little faster after work. Which means they don't have to see much of the city either way. Nice for the commuters. Not so nice for the downtown merchants. And Albany has its share of deteriorating brownstones, ugly high rise low-income housing projects and urban crime. AH of these afflictions are not unique to Albany. Things Get Done Indeed, Albany may actually be better off than a lot of other towns. Yes, there are some differences. Unlike many other cities, the police do answer calls. The fire department responds to alarms, and neither is seriously undermanned. Garbage is collected from every neighborhood. The streeU are cleaned; the snow somehow gets plowed. In short, the city functions, which in this day and age is something to brug about. The city government may be "corrupt and rotten", but the PAGE TWELVE average citizen here really 'doesn't care. As long as his street is plowed and his taxes don't go up, hell be satisfied. The Albany machine knows how to please. Atomy not so bad Mediocre but Secure Photos by dmrld Shapiro Scenes like the one above are more and more common in Albany commercial areas as stores move to the lucrative suburbs,but the city is by no means stagnating. Many new construction projects are either in progress or planned throughout the capital city. State Street is the heart of Albany's central business district. The street is increasingly being dominated by banking offices as retail stores go out of business or flee to the suburbs. Consequently, streets are empty after 5:00 PM, when office workers are safely at home in the suburbs Albany is a slow city. The pace is langorous. It is a middleAmerican haven. The people don't have to face crowds, subways, junkies, or high crime. True, they are somewhat isolated from a lot of mainstream America, and most of them appear happy. Happy, perhaps in a provincial sense, but happy nonetheless. Living in Albany is a lot like turning the clock back 20 years. Albany in 1972 is a lot like the average American city in 1952. The government is somewhat archaic, but things do get done. The city is not falling apart. Hopeful Construction This is not to say that Albany is completely stagnant. There are even optimists who see a "bright and prosperous" future for the city. They base their hopes not on the massive South Mall project, but on several other recent developments which could go far toward revitalizing the city core. Most important of these is the Ten Eyck Project. Construction will soon begin on the site of the old Ten Eyck Hotel of a high rise office building, hotel complex, shopping mall, and other public spaces. It should pump some blood into the weak heart of downtown Albany. This Spring construction should start on the new federal building next to the Palace Theatre. Several other building pro jects are also in the works. Physical improvements are being made in harbor facilities United Fruit Company recently decided to bypass New York for Albany, using the latter city as a distribution point fur the north east. And although we shouldn't hold our breath waiting for large corporations to move their headquarters to Albany, the United Fruit move is indicative of a desire to capitalize on Albany's central position in the northeast. There is the decision by the State University to utilize the delapidated Delaware and Hudson building for its central headquarters. SUNY will completely lenovate the building inside and out. Whether Albanians are hanging onto the South Mall as theh "last hope," as the Nfw Yurll Times story staled is questionable. Musi city leaders realize that the final opening of the mall won't really mean a very large increase in the number of workers in the city. The thous ands of construction workers will merely be replaced by a few thousand more officcworkers transplanted from other areas of the city and consolidated at the mall site. The arterial highways will whisk workers into the cavern oils maw of an underground parking lot anil whisk them away when day is done Whether they will bother to actually slop in Albany to and from work, or during noontime to do some shopping is doubtful It's a long trek from the mall offices to the downtown stores. Mediocre Yet Secure Albany certainly wouldn't win a Model Citins Award. It is. admittedly, a mediocre place The "well bred" anil "soplns tacted" would undoubtedly he bored here Mm the average Al Iranian is content right where he Is. Albany's riverfront area has been seriously affected by the building of massive arterial systems effectively preventing access to the river for cith residents. The expressways are beneficial, however, to commuters who can whisk to and from downtown offices without stopping in the city itself. Nice for the commuters. Not so nice for the merchants. ALBANY STUDENT PRESS Winters may he harsh, the ar chitoeture may he atrocious, the cultural attractions few and fur between, hut Hie average Albanian isn't complaining.

The National Wcatltct Service in Albany said the snowfall would amount to over twelve inches, as it fell at the rale over an inch an hour throughout the night. The storm which hit Albany about .1 p.m. in a lighl mist hut quickly changed to heavy visibility-reducing Hakes, foiled many rush-hour m o t o r i s t s and liavcllers on the eve of the Jewish holiday of llatuikkah.

Teevan Discusses Tenure With Students by Glenn von Noslitz The tenure controversies con linue. About twenty concerned students met Psychology Depart munt Chairman Richard Teevan Tuesday night to talk about issues related to tenure and teaching effectiveness. Much of the discussion centered around the importance placed on student evaluations in tenure cases. Teevan said that when student evaluations are strongly unfavorable to a purti culur professor, he will most probably he fired. However, if the evaluations favor the professor, his or her case will Ire discussed further by the depart merit Other considerations would then he taken into account. These would include research, university service, and continuing growth. Teevan told the students that beginning this coming semester nil Psychology professors will be required to undergo student evaluations, Students asked him what would happen to professors who still refused to undergo evaluation, and he responded that, in essence, ho would Ire "unable" to force thum to be evaluated, particularly if they are tenured. It is his own personal belief that every instructor should be evaluated, but he is not likely to force anyone to do so. Also discussed in this connection was the availability of evaluation information. Such information, Teevan told the students, is restricted only to the professor involved and is not supposed to be made public. This policy was voted on an approved by the department, and Teevan says he is in no position to circumvent it, although bis personal philosophy is that all such information should be public, Teevan recommended that if students so desired, they could conduct their own evaluations and make the information public. However, he feels thot If a professor was against this, ho would not be obligated to sacrifice class time for it to be dono. Students would have to contact their classmates outside of class to gather evaluations. There would not, ho emphasized, bo any restriction on releasing any information gathered in this manner. Graduate Teachers Defended 111 other discussion, Teevan talked about teaching effectiveness in regaril to the issue of g r a d u a t e students leaching undergraduate courses. Students questioned the use of graduate students in teaching introductory courses, as well as several upper level courses. In at least one c o u r s e , "Personality," graduate students are teaching two out of the three sections offered. The undergraduate students feel they are being deprived of the teaching effective noas of full professors, since muny of them allegedly spend their time doing research. Teevan says that rather than being harmful, the use of graduate students is actually beneficial. Graduate students can give more personal help than full professors and are often more enthusiastic about their leaching, ho says. Also, he points out that they are less specialized and are thereby belter al teaching Introductory courses. Ho feels that research directly benefits undergraduates since It makes the department more visible and gives it prestige This benefit* undergraduates who later apply to graduate schools. Research is so important, in fact, that professors are often hired or promoted according to how likely it seems they may make a "research breakthrough," Teevan adds. Such "breakthroughs" also add to departmental prestige. Student Vole Denied Also discussed during the meeting was the issue of whether students should vote at faculty meetings. Teevan feels that this issue is not of paramount importance. Ho udds that he doesn't wont to create faculty morale problems, which student vutes could possibly create. There was at least one urea in which both Teevan and the students found themselves in agreement. Both feel that the curriculum should be expanded and that now courses should he offered, In addition to "the basics." However there is the usual problem of money and budget restrictions, which pre- vent any new courses from being established. Teevan did point out thut one new seminar course will, however, he offered next fall. Where the money for this course come from is uncleur. One problem being encountered by the Psychology department is the faculty-student ratio. Tire department reportedly has one of the highest ratios in the entire University. This is partly the result of lurgo class sizes, and the muny nursing and speech pathology students who ure required to tuke psychology courses. Neither of those departments contributes professors or money to the Psychology deportment. Teevun fools thot upper level courses should have no more than I fi to 20 studeliio, und he claims that he will not teach courses with large numbers of enrollees. Teevun says thut when he came to this University, lie understood that his main tusk was to develop a large gruduute program, und thut this was the reason he loft Bueknoll. That college apparently hus no graduate psychology program. HOT FLASHES "Sensibility" Thurs. Brubachcr Hall ( a b o v e ) , h o m e of the J a m e s E.

Kissinger and Le Due Tho, Porter said, "In this present phase then, we should respect each other's problems and concerns, and we should have faith that the serious purpose demonstrated and the major progress achieved will lead at an early date to a mutually satisfactory final result." But Nguyen Binh Vy of North Vietnam told the meeting the United States, "at variance with its statements, . . . has breached faith and refused to sign exactly on Oct. 31 the agreement which has been reached. Furthermore it has demanded modifications in the text of the agreement." Vy declared, "We reject all allegation that 'North Vietnam has made an aggression against South Vietnam' and all demands of 'mutual withdrawal.' We reaffirm that the only aggressor in Vietnam is the United States. Therefore the United States must stop its aggression: U.S. troops and other foreign troops in the U.S. camp must be completely withdrawn from Vietnam." by Morris W. Rosenberg Associated Press Writer PARIS AP — The United States pledged today that President Nixon will not permit any avoidable delay in ending the Vietnam war. But Hanoi again rejected Saigon's demands for a pullout of all North Vietnamese troops and charged that the United States had broken faith by not signing the draft peace agreement. U.S, Ambassador William J. Porter told the 168th weekly session of the Paris peace talks; "We had hoped, as you know, to reach an agreement earlier. We worked hard to bring this about, but the issues in this long conflict are complex, as all recognize, and can neither be dismissed nor distorted. "We reiterate to you our president's firm intention lo permit no avoidable delay in ending this war and entering a period of peace and reconstuction."

Though the path is very narrow, the yellow brick road is very wide and we are all on it, whether we realize it or not. There are many people who have gotten together and thus we are able to say that we do have a Refer, a 5300, a day care center, draft counseling; and the needs and problems of many different people in varying spheres are being cared for. Certainly we need more people to give their time and energy which is semiprecious because of school and personal relationships. But how can an atmoaphere of good will and concern be brought to Albany, with everyone taking part and committing themselves to making their community an expression of their beliefs, ideas and hopes? Or rather, the feelings are here already in many of us and some kind of sensitive stimulation that touches all of us is needed to produce this new community, to create this Creation. Christmas is coming up, and wherever we'll be spending it, there's a kind of excitement and closeness, but bow far into the new year will it last? Does the spirit just come and go can it actually be integrated in some part of our being with a lusting effect? Exactly now we devote our energy and what course of action we take depends upon finding our cenUr and then working from there. 80 we have P A G E SIX ;.._;•;. ; : , r ~„;:::,.:.:-;iv. to find our individual center and then perhaps find our collective source and build. Rather than get more abstract, I wish to call attention to some points where change is needed and hopefully it will set off a cataclysm of events as we become more conscious of our Self and sensitive to the environment. How we use colour, in the way we dress, in the environment, hov? they affect us, is a kind of psychology. Just as how we relate to one another will decide whether we help open each other up and expand, or whether we do the opposite backing away, shriveling, contracting closing ourselves up so it is with col ours they can relax us, soothe us, be arousing or they can put us to sleep. Being on the campus and seeing the architecture has an effect upon us, besides whether we see boring lifeless faces or smiling enthusiasticpeople. The SUNY buses which parade around the city one hundred timeB a day could use a change td '"-;>""•': *•*• ., ', ' • " " " ' of face, perhaps a psychedelic blue or a coal of many colors-if it isn't a traffic distraction. Though 1 wouldn't think of asking people to dress up, how about a day of dress colorfully, or corny, or backwards; not to put the spotlight on external changes hut it's needed everywhere in all of us. Albany lias a lot of while houses for some unknown reason; a house down the block from me was just painted bright yellow and another blue it really makes a difference (though winter's not the best time to paint a house). I'd like to take pari in some sensitivity groups but I don't believe there have been any lo take pari it Brothers and Sisters we all can be and yet il seems so far away sometimes. As individuals we're infinite with different possibilities and yet we are all trying to be more open to the forces of the uni verse as we journey inward and outward in quest of the holy grail, our Self. „„,,,...„, J B L mppum >.!,.

Arnold Steinhardt, the first violinist, was suffering from a multitude o f colds, flus, and whatever else one can contract, yet he played an acceptable concert. It was not perfect (some people hud the nerve to grumble about the two scratched notes he playcd-probably the same people w h o think the Albany S y m p h o n y is the world's best), but it was still incredibly musical. The Guarneri can play any tiling well. The Mozart Quartet is a nice piece, one that challenges the intellect if not the pure physical skill. It is a different piece to animate; the music must not only be played accurately, but it must be played with an abundance of feeling. The Guarneri seems to reflect over the music while it is playing it. The pauses in the first movement were lmpeecable»if s o m e o n e was working t h e m by strings from above the stage it c o u l d n ' t have been cleaner. It was in the Bartok Q u a r t e t N o . 6 w h e r e the G u a r n e r i showed their t o p form. It is a work of a different language than the Mozart.

It is a piece u n t o itself, and w i t h its five sister w o r k s it c o n s t i t u t e s one of the most i m p o r t a n t bodies of c h a m b e r music ever written ( m o r e critics and musicologists are j u m p i n g on the Bartok b a n d w a g o n every d a y ) .

T h e y claim the strike was a success because security was effectively prevented from towing any cars. The c a m p u s cops a p p a r e n t l y did n o t w a n t a c o n f r o n t a t i o n with s t u d e n t s , so they kept their shiny new t o w truck hidden safely in the garage. Nonetheless, there s e e m s to be a deep-seated feeling a m o n g s o m e s t u d e n t s t h a t they are truly helpless in the face of administrative tactics. T h e strike illustrated how easily the administration can c i r c u m v e n t even the m o s t c o n c e r n e d efforts of stud e n t activists. Often cited by Central Council leaders is at least o n e solid acc o m p l i s h m e n t of the strike effort. This was Ihe series of meetings which have been held between s t u d e n t s and administrat o r s , and which were aimed at closing the "communications g a p " and t o h a m m e r out changes in the university governance system so that is would include "meaningful s t u d e n t i n p u t . " T h e major efforl in this regard was the m e e t i n g several weeks ago between s o m e t wenty council m e m b e r s and a group of (op university officials, including President Beni'zet, himself, a | u n g with several of bis Vice President bit tie of c o n c r e t e substance was decided at the meeting, bul il was agreed thai inalt groups of s t u d e n t s s h o u l d meet informally with administrators lor lunch periodically New Proposals \i b-ast there is o p e n discus sum, which is o n e c o m m o d i t y which was in short supply before I be strike However, many conn cil m e m b e r s are looking for m o r e than jusl talk They waul action.

So they have begun developing proposals which should increase the amount of actual student influence in the decision-making process. The m o s t promising of these calls for the creation of an Executive Committee of the University which would a c t as a " c l e a r i n g h o u s e , " b u t "not a rubber s t a m p " for all University decisions directly affecting students. It w o u l d , n o t a b l y , c o n t a i n a larger p r o p o r t i o n of s t u d e n t s than the University S e n a t e , and would be subject only t o the veto of the University President. Bad Faith In spite of the informal atmosphere of t h e lunch time chitchats, there are still a n u m b e r of council m e m b e r s w h o still wonder w h e t h e r the a d m i n i s t r a t i o n is talking in good faith. They were displeased with the performance of Vice-President for Management and Planning J o h n Hartley w h e n he appeared before Council several weeks ago to answer questions a b o u t the parking issue He allegedly tried to " d o d g e q u e s t i o n s " and offered, in the words of one councilman, "glib g e n e r a l i z a t i o n s , " And then there was the towing of cars after the strike had ended and before Ihe new regulations took effect, a move which Connc il C h a irman Ken Stokem labeled an "act of bad faith." Everyone seems to agree thai the efforl put into the strike was worth it Parking may not be the most i m p o r t a n t issue on c a m p u s , but s l u d e n t leaders see it as "indicative of Ihe way s t u d e n t s often gel s h a f l e d . " Their ultim a t e goal was to open c o m m u n i cations and to s t i m u l a t e real change in the way decisions are made at this University. It seems thai they have been largely successful in doing this. There was also a m o r e immediate goal which was to s t o p discriminatory parking and t o overturn rules prohibiting park mg on the quads and around the podium This remains to be and jack anderson Washington Merry-Go-Round Project Lost One of the Nixon Administra ion's pel projects for senior citizens, "Project Kind," is now a p p a r e n t l y Project Lost The Lnidable program was initiated last August lo locale older Americans w h o were not taking advantage of federal food programs It was a cooperative efforl on the pari ol five govern incut agencies and Ihe \itnt ( 'lOSS Brochures were sent out in Social Security envelopes, public si-rv ice announcement*) were provided to radio and television stations, and 7,IKK) newspapers and magazines received press lots As result, t h o u s a n d s of letters p o u r e d in from old people a r o u n d the c o u n t r y Hul m a n y of the senior citizens who inquired about the program have so far received only a form letter stating thai a Ited Cross volunteer " s h o u l d " visit t h e m soon As for Project Find itself, its appeals to older Americana a b r u p t l y s l o p p e d November In, just a week following President Nixon's landslide victory.

His recently reissued album The Complete Birth of the Cool (Capitol Ml 1026) allows one to do exactly that. This album was recorded about 22 years ago, and it shows how much Davis has changed. When this album was first released it began what has been called "cool jazz." Therefore this is a very important collection of recordings. The arrangements by Gil livans are like cumulus clouds, large yet soft and billowy. Davis' playing is relaxed (sometimes too much so) and natural. His range is limited and his soles are short. Sales by Lee Koimx and John Lewis add value lo this recording. An older musician, Slcphan Grapelli, lias made a new album, Afternoon in I'aris (MI'S 20H7o). Grapelli is a highly respected ja/v violiiusl who first came to lame in some exciting perloiniances Willi ihc greal guitarist, Diango Khemhait. Giapelli has giown consideiubly SIIILL' then as lins recording makes evident. He his a considerable amount ol technique and Ins melodic lines .ne extieinely complicated.

Hie rhythm seclum behind him is capable ol pioviding the sitppon necessaiv . although lliey aie weak in sole ability. Uui Giapelli moie than compensates for that, making lliis an album woilli its maoney. In a uewei vein is Stanley Turiinlin's Clurrv 1(11 (i()l7|. I did not really expei i much liom lliis lecordmg. because much ol uh.it lie has done in ihe pasl lias been we.nils coinnieici.il liui this mixture of four swinging tunes and two gentle ballads comes off beautifully. Vibraphonist Milt Jackson is buoyant on the uptempo numbers and amazingly delicate on the ballads ind very inventive on everything. Turrentine has a pleasingly warm and gruff tone on tenor and although there is nothing very deep in what he plays, his hearty swinging performance is a joy to listen to. Pianist Bob James, bassist Ron C a r t e r , a n d drummer Bill Cobham combine to make a crack rhythm section. The sum total of the various components in this album is a big plus. Groove Holmes' Night (Hider (Groove Merchant GM5I2) tries 10 cash jn tunes, and in doing so sacrifices all artistic qualities. Holmes can play with a lot of drive if. he wishes, as is evident on "One Mint Julep" and "Pure Sugar Cane". But too much room is given to such dead wood as "Go Away Little Girl" and "It's Going To Take Some Time" while Holmes is almost crowded out by the heavy handed rhythm team. On the other hand, not enough space is given to trombonist Garnett Brown and Tenorist Selden Powell, both of whom could have added quite a bit to this album. Even so, this is one of Holme's best albums in the past few years and when he is allowed to let loose his organ playing is as good as nearly anyone's in jazz.

It is something to be ignored, sent packing off to a nursing home to slip away and die offstage, says Richard C. Dumont of Bates College, who recently coauthored a book. The American View of Death: Acceptance or Denial. AFTER FINALS FOR 25 SODOM, Israel AP —Centuries before pornography and nude movie scenes turned sinning into ho-hum family entertainment, this part of Israel waa the. swingingest wicked city in the Worm. e That's all it costs you to run our special "after finals going home" ad use it to get a ride or t o get riders ADVERTISE NOW! NEW YORK AP - The Daily Express of London said Monday that Martin Bormann, Adolf Hitler's deputy in World War II, is hiding on a vast Krupp estate in Argentina, where he was traced by the South American country's secret service. The article, by spy expert Ladislas Farago and former Express foreign editor Steward Steven, was distributed under copyright in the United States by the Chicago Tribune-New York Daily News Syndicate and appeared here in the Daily News. The newspaper showed pictures of a thick-set, balding man, said to be Borman traveling under the name Ricardo Bauer, being interviewed by an Argentine immigration inspector. It .siad Bormann was photographed at checkpoint Mendo/.a in northern Argentina when he crossed over from Chile on Oct. 5. " T h e American apparently does not die," he said. Madison Avenue image makers and businessmen seeking profit have combined to project the American corpse as alive as possible, and going to sleep in a casket which is often explicitly advertised as a comfortable bed. Dumont said he still personally denies death "at the gut level. Although I am more conscious now of the ambivalence surrounding death, it's no more comprehensible than it ever was." He added that he personally hasn't "solved any better the notion thai I'll die, "It's good for the individual Lo know that ambivalence of confusing feelings about death are natural," Dumont said. "It's helpful in view of individual adaptation." Dumont said his observations indicate that Americans, diverted by an affluent culture, deny the inevitability of their death. And he credited the American tendency to "run, hide and seek refuge in group norms and actuarial statistics...Lhat blur the individual face of death" with a kind of national delusion of in vulnerability to it. Farago and Steven said Bormann had been traced in the last few weeks to the Rancho Grande, a huge estate owned by Arndt von Bohlen-I lalhach c>r llie West German Krupp family, in the province of Sal la. They quoted immigration special agent Jose Juan Veiasco as saying: "We have al this moment incontrovertible evidence that Bormann himself is there." Nowadays Sodom is dullsville. Prom the dedicated sinner, the closed thing to an illicit thrill is picking up a lump of salt littering the empty landscape, bleaker than Death Valley. Sodom in 1972 is a nature preserve, although just what the Israeli government is trying to preserve is difficult to imagine. There's nothing here except salt crystals, lying around like snow, but a sign proclaims them "protected natural assets" and swiping them qualifies as a sin, or a least a crime. In Old Testament days, Sodom must have made Las Vegas seem like a kindergarten. Along with Gomorrah, which has vanished from the face of the earth, Sodom got top billing in the Bible for unsavory repute. God destroyed them both. The scriptures don't make clear exactly what was going on, but Genesis says: "The men of Sodom were wicked, great sinners...The Lord rained on Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire...and He overthrew those cities...and lo, the tmoke of thy land went up like the smoke of a furnace." That's pretty much the way it is even now, much to the disappointment of tourists looking for a little iniquity in the Holy Land. ***** NEW YORK AP - The stars of "Peepalive," where for 25 cents you can watch nearly nude women on a revolving stage, take their final bows today, according to a spokesman for the real estate man and attorney Edward Finch. Finch, uncle of f resident N i x o n ' s son-in-law Edward Finch Cox, was one of a number of real estate holders identified recently as landlords of buildings housing sex shows and shops in the Times square area. The spokesman said Monday that all such tenants will be evicted from Finch properties by next spring, either through lease expirations or legal action. The first casualty is "Peepalive." Other supposedly salacious businesses operating out of Finch buildings included several bookstores and a male sex cinema. , A statement from Finch (aid Ihia eorporation had not leased the property to the tenants in question and asserted it had spent more than one year trying to flush them out. In another development in the city's campaign to rid midtown of pornography, a deputy commissioner in the Department of Consumer Affairs said his agency would soon start making weekly reports of action taken against alleged offenders. DIJON, France AP - The first electric-powered automobiles to look like real cars instead of beach buggies or props for circus bears will go unglamorously into service next year in Dijon. Only the standard engine and transmission have been replaced in a series of 80 workaday Renault R4s that Electricite de France, the stale-owned utility monopoly, is modifying to serve as repair and customer relations cars. It wants to push the idea that autos that don't make smoke or noise have grown out of the futureland sections of amusement parks and into something solid enough that its repairmen can start driving in June. Farago and Steven, quoting secret service iliicumen ts, claimed Bormann had been living in various Latin-American countries under several names since 1948. For your convenience , use the form below.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1972 ALBANY STUDENT PRESS PAGE THIRTEEN If the fighting had taken place here... Matmen Optimistic , Season Opens Here Saturday by Kenneth Arduino Wrestling returns to the Albany State gym this Saturday when the grappiers from A l b a n y take on three other schools in the annual quadrangle meet at 1 p.m. Albany which was 5-5-1 last year finished second a year ago. Defending champion Union and third place finisher Dartmouth College return along with newcomer RPI. This opens the season for the Albany matmen. Last year the team started out strong but lost five men around mid-season and ended up a dismal seventh in the SUNY Championship. This year's team has already set an improvement on that finish a goal for this year. This year's team has already received a blow. Top wrestler Phil Mims was expected back but he dropped out of school. Cliff Wess, a returning letterman, is under doctor's care and is not expected to see much action. High school standout, Ed Bellas was expected to go out and didn't. But Coach Garcia still feels that this team should he able to better last year's record. He sites the tremendous attitude and fierce determination of the team. This y e a r , the matmen may be in their best shape ever, as Garcia has had four scrimmages with other schools. He was forced to schedule these scrimmages as the team is short handed and could not scrimmage itself. This is a perenial problem at Albany even though the talent is present. It is a mystery to Garcia and the atheletic department, why every year there are not enough wrestlers to give the starters some competition. There are still openings on the team to those who are interested. Leading this year's team is returnee Larry Mims. Last year he had the best record in dual meets on the team. Also returning is three year captain Jeff Albrecht who came off a broken leg to have a seven and two record. Last year's most improved wrestler, Doug Bauer, also returns. After a year of experience Doug should be one of the team leaders. The heavy weight division has been usually a weak one for the Great Danes, b ut th is year i ts different. Albany has two top contender-, Rudy Vido and Frank Villanova. Rudy was injured last year and will have a fight on his hands for the top job. Dick Moody at 12(i and Tom Horn at 168 are the other returning lettermen. New men who will be stepping into the top positions are Will Katz at I 18, Ethan Grossman at 134, Jim Dickson at 177 and Bob Nerlinger at 190. How far the Albany team can go will depend on how well these men perform and how many injuries the team suffers. If they avoid injuries they should better last year's mark but a few injuries could spell disaster for the learn. 1 HAPPY HANUKKAH f j Swimmer's Goal: Winning Year by Hob Rice The Albany State swimming team opens their fourth varsity season tomorrow afternoon at Pittsburgh.

Cyganovich As o f September 3 0 , 1 9 7 2 , the State University o f N e w York at Albany houses 4 8 9 empty beds. This total given by Mr, Garry Petre, Associate Director of Residence, does not include Mohawk Tower. Why t h e number of vacant beds? Where are they situated? At this time, these questions are a little difficult to answer. A survey is being t a k e n ; hopefully, in a few weeks t h e precise answers will be k n o w n . But educated estimates can be given at the present time. All t h e quads are struck with this p r o b l e m , each of t h e m has a n u m b e r of e m p t y r o o m s . This does n o t include t h e part of Fulton Hall given u p to offices; only residence r o o m s w h i c h are standing idle are included. A n u m b e r of reasons are given. As in any o t h e r year, a n u m b e r of freshmen decided n o t t o come. According to Mr. Petre this total is a p p r o x i m a t e l y 150 students. Since m o s t freshmen live on c a m p u s this n u m b e r makes u p for a b o u t one-third of the resident s t u d e n t s for w h o m rooms were planned. As lor transfer s t u d e n t s , there were less t h a t chose to live; on campus 'his yenr as c o m p a r e d to hist About HO0 transfers were accepted both this year and last, this year only 6 0 0 asked to be housed on c a m p u s as c o m p a r e d to 7 l,r> last year. T h i s decrease has c o n t r i b u t e d t o the n u m b e r of e m p t y beds. A n o t h e r factor is the n u m b e r of withdrawals and dismissals. Twenty-six s t u d e n t s have been dismissed; on top of this, fortyfive have w i t h d r a w n from the University. A n o t h e r nineteen did n o t show at t h e residence halls. These last few are still enrolled in the University, but have decided t o live elsewhere. The actual rate of c o m m u t e r s is n o t k n o w n t o the housing office; n e i t h e r is the exact a m o u n t of off-campus residents. It is s p e c u l a t e d t h a t m o r e stud e n t s m a y be married. Since t h e r e are n o facilities for married s t u d e n t s on c a m p u s , they must live elsewhere. Because of econ o m i c p r o b l e m s , s t u d e n t s may be transferring t o schools near h o m e a n d are c o m m u t i n g . This can explain p a r t of t h e reason for vacant r o o m s . S o m e of the funding for s t u d e n t s came in late this year which may have kept people from going to Albany. Also on the e c o n o m i c side of the picture is t h e fact that some a p a r t m e n t s a r e c h e a p e r than c a m p u s living. But this d e p e n d s u p o n the quality of a p a r t m e n t . T h e residence office feels t h a t in o r d e r to find an a p a r t m e n t which offers as good facilities as the University offers, s t u d e n t s have to pay m o r e than it would cost t o live in t h e d o r m s bring in a number of students, but others will be leaving also, have a tremendous effect o n the amount of empty rooms. This problem of vacant beds is not o n e of Albany alone; a Therefore, this will probably not number of the State s c h o o l s are having similar problems. A t the present time, there is much research going on in this area. Until the results are analyzed, no more dorms will be constructed by the State University s y s t e m . The Residence Office here is no different. It is trying to fine, out w h y students do not like the residence halls. If any particular trends develop as the results are returned, the University will do its best t o correct the situation. by Ellyn Stcrnberger l l i i l i l 5 s* *—••- Besides t h e p r o b l e m of freshmen n o t showing, there is also a p r o b l e m of total decreased enrollment Last fall the actual h e a d c o u n t was 13,905.

U WELLS & COVERLY'S NEW SHOP AT STUYVESANT PLAZA General Reorganizational meeting Monday, Dec. 4 7:30 pm funded by student tax continued on page three Departmental Status by End of Next Semester; Too Few Puerto Rican Professionals Employed Here by John I.111I1.1II Born in the aftermath of a tumultuous confrontation between Puerto Rican students and administrators, the Puerto Rican studies program is expanding towards departmental status. This event, expected about April by the interim director of the program, Antonio Perez, will not likely attract the attention and hostility that the early cries for a program met with in 1971. Perez told this reporter that Moyer Hunsberger, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, authorized him to form a committee to develop the program into a department. Perez is also working in a committee searching for a full-time director for the program. What follows is a summary of the answers given by Perez to questions about the program and his role in it. **** * P.Y.E. CLUB •**£& Sirotkin proceeded to review the tenure procedure. Each individual case is evaluated on the criteria of teaching effectiveness, scholarly ability, University-Community service, professional growth and development, and research. The case goes through several steps in the department before it goes to a student-faculty committee in the college. From there it goes to the University Council on Promotions. The Council makes its recommendation to the President of the University. Sirotkin emphasized the point that each decision along the way is simply an advisory recommendation. The President makes the final decision, but usually the University Council's decision is accepted. The decision goes from the President's office to the Chancellor and the Board of Trustees who confer the actual tenure. Sirotkin said that the criteria of teaching effectiveness is determined in part by student evaluation. One of the weaknesses of this is no uniform method of evaluation. Each department has its own system. An effort was made to standardize this across departments, but it didn't succeed. Concerning student input on tenure, Sirotkin was careful to express the view that "Teaching effectiveness is not synonymous with popularity." When specific cases of popular instructors not being granted tenure were cited and questioned, he said that for each popular individual for whom students signed petitions there were also students who didn't like the individual. He also claimed that there are as many cases of popular individuals getting tenure as there are popular individuals not getting tenure. Puerto Rican Studies Director Says: Editor's note The facts in this article are all true but the have been changed to protect the innocent. \p* Vice-President Philip Sirotkin was the invited guest at last week's Central Council meeting. The topic was tenure. Sirotkin informed the Council members that SUNYA presently has about 60% of its instructional faculty tenured. The norm for Universities and four year colleges is in the 50%-60% range. It was his feeling that no more than 50%-60% should be tenured. He explained that with a "no growth" budget you can't add new faculty and programs without hurting existing programs. ----i~.~k can't from page J s o m e p e o p l e a r e n ' t going t o w a n t you a r o u n d , r e m e m b e r i n g t h a t s o m e people are. --Expect an initial period of loneliness and frustration; it's c o m m o n .

Gox Sirotkin Talks Tenure With Council FA 126 Why do Puerto Rican students need a Puerto Rican studies program (department)9 Perez highlighted the needs of students who want a department formed soon so that they may complete a major, not presently offered. He estimates that about 30 students are prepared and waiting for the opportunity to pursue a major. Perez also spoke of Puerto Rican students seeking something they can relate to in the university. Puerto Rican students "realized there was nothing in the university they could claim as then own " They want "to find out more about themselves in a university setting . . . In any setting they need something they can indentify with." Perez noted that the growth of the Afro-American studies department encouraged Puerto Rican students. How ran a department be justified tor so few students'' Perez replied that the "number of (Puerto Rican) students is constantly growing." About 300 Puerto Rican students attend SUNYA now, and according to a formula used by the Educational Opportunity Program, about one third of the freshman students accepted through the EOP must be Spanish surnamed, guaranteeing continuing admission of some Puerto Ricans into SUNYA. He emphasized that the program is for "the whole community." Despite the fact that the Puerto Rican studies program has not publicized itself well, increasing numbers of non-Puerto Ricans are taking courses in it.
