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

a Model Citins Award. It 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.

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.

between Henry A. 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."

Breaking Down All Those Walls
by Steve Nover
Though the university has a so
called peace studies, a student
council, and many organizations;
it certainly seems that so much
more can be done here in Albany to create feelings of mutual
understanding and co-operation.
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.

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.

Guarneri Quartet Plays to Full House in PAC

It gets to the point where the Guarneri Quartet is just too good to
be true. They.played a concert here Tuesday night which demon-
An e n t i r e generation of Americans has g r o w n up during an era
when this c o u n t r y was participating in a war viewed as unfort u n a t e at best and wrong at
worst. While the iong-term affects of t h a t war on t h e future
of the n a t i o n remain t o be seen,
o n e s o b e r i n g conclusion can be
d r a w n : It could easily h a p p e n
again unless Comrress moves to
assert its Constitutional responsibility t o prevent t h e waging of
war w i t h o u t Congressional approval.
T h e n i g h t m a r e of V i e t n a m has
been u n i q u e in our h i s t o r y . It is
t h e longest war in which we have
p a r t i c i p a t e d . It was waged far

greatest part, in spite of o u r
national conscience. For most
Americans it was a TV war, a

strated their musical capacities, as well as their intestinal fortitude.
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

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

It does not convey its message in 8-bar phrases and I o n i c - d o m i n a n t

t h a t a n o t h e r strike certainly is
w a r r a n t e d , since t h e administration has gone ahead with enf o r c e m e n t of the controversial

Parking in the main lots is still

Helplessness
There are a lot of observers
who don't see the picture as all
t h a t bleak. 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

which settle tenure cases with

So they have begun developing
proposals which should increase
the amount of actual student

process. The m o s t promising of
these calls for the creation of an
Executive Committee of

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

C Davis: The Birth of the Cool
by Ariene Scheurer
Now that Miles Davis has
achieved an amount of popularity beyond that which is
usually accorded jazz musicians,
it is more interesting than ever
to look at the various stages
through which he has passed in
order to get where he has. 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.
I hose aie all lliings thai can gel
in the way ol an utipiovi/ei hut
in the hands ol Grapelli ihev
become the means ol some vei)
good music. 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

uh.it lie has done in ihe pasl lias

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.

L EWISTON, Maine AP
Americans deny the inevitably
of death and consider it to be
similar to going to sleep in a
comfortable bed, a sociologist
says.
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.

That's all it costs you to run our special
"after finals going home" ad

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.

Foe in Opener
by Richard Yanku
A young, inexperienced junior
varsity basketball team at Alb a n y will be playing their first
game of the season at H u d s o n
Valley on S a t u r d a y , Dec. 2 at 2
p.m. Coach Lewis h a s tried to
smooth out the young Danes'
p r o b l e m s in t h e final
three
w e e k s of the practice season, b u t
t h r e e w o r d s m i g h t s u m u p the
o u t c o m e of the first g a m e : rebounding,
inexperience
and
Vikingp.
T h e G r e a t D a n e " P u p s " are
n o t big in size. T o compensate for
their size, Coach Lewis has tried
t o teach t h e m h o w to b o x o u t
the bigger m a n , p r o p e r l y . In a
scrimmage
against
one
foe,
Fulton-Montgomery
the Danes
" h e l d their o w n " according to
Coach Lewis, versus the big man.
While t h e biggest m a n on the
Albany J V ' s is a b o u t 6 ' 2 " , the
tallest on F u l t o n was 6 ' 7 " . T h e
results of the game t u r n e d o u t to
be pleasing to t h e team and
C o a c h Lewis as t h e y gut their
share of the r e b o u n d s , offensively and defensively.
A l t h o u g h m o s t of the players
on the Albany ..quad have had
high school e x p e r i e n c e in basketball, only o n e or t w o of the
players have had college basketball e x p e r i e n c e . R o n T e r r y , from
C o l o n i e , is t h e only J V not
having played varsity basketball
in high school. J i m Eisenman is
o n e of possibly t w o players with
college basketball e x p e r i e n c e .
In the past years, HVCC has
been big in size, t h e y like to play
m a n t o m a n defense, and they
like t o utilize the press. Last

in t w o or three of t h o s e losses
did H V C C lose by 15 or 20
points.
T h e " P u p s " , h o w e v e r , can

Russell baffles this r e p o r t e r and
Coach Lewis and his starling in
the game versus HVCC is questionable. R o y c e definitely has
the potential to be starting 1'or
ward, but h e has the t e n d e n c y to
usi- his t a l e n t s as a nuard, and he
d o e s n ' t fit at the guard position
in Coach Lewis' offense. Becuase
he ( R o y c e ) does this switching
from guard to forward and back
so often in practices, he may be
passed up by Lewis as a starting

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.

Swimmer's Goal: Winning Year
by Hob Rice
The Albany State swimming
team opens their fourth varsity
season tomorrow afternoon at
Pittsburgh.
The CJ rea I Da ties have eigh I
lettermen on hand and coach
Brian Kelly anticipates considerable improvement- "We have our
besl chalice yet for a winning
season," states the only swimming coach in the sport's sixyear history at (he university.
" F o r the first time, I think we
have at least a fighting chance in
every meet."
Albany's
l o p performer is
junior Len Van Ryn who holds
six school records in the free
.style and individual medley
events. The former Bethlehem
Central swimmer led the Danes
in points last year (111) and
scored the most points of any

Other returning record-holders
are senior freestyler Marc Eson,
senior butterfiyer Pete Oerstenhaber, senior backs troker Bill
Marl, and junior breasts troker
Lew Puretz. Hart will graduate in
•January. .Junior freestyler Ed
Daniel, senior butterfiyer .faik

Rounding o u t the squad are
junior diver Bob Canter who
won the Nassau County one

placed sixth in the New York
State Inter-seelionals as a high
school senior; sophomore breaststoker Rob (Jeier; junior freestyler Sam Mandelbaum, and
sophomore
backs! roker
Rick

Contributing to Kelly's optimism is what he calls " t h e best
group of incoming freshmen
we've had " He expects them to
provide important poinls anil

Number of Empty Beds Increases Here
by Diana M. 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

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.

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.

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.

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. "I don't expect only Puerto Rican students
will minor and major in Puerto Rican studies," Perez said
The importance of Puerto Ricans as a growing minority in New York State was also
cited. Puerto Ricans comprise one-sixteenth of the total state population, Perez stated.

Studies Program maintains "great faith that the program
will be a department by the end of the semester."
