Cerebral Palsy
Students Speak Out on Tenure Cases
Curt Smith:
by Chris Masterson and
Stacey Jarit
The tenure case of Curt Smith,
a member of SUNYA's English
Department, recalls the cases of
o t h e r professors in various
departments at the university
this year.
There are supporters who alledge the professor is qualified.
There is a bureaucracy that has
rendered decisions more negative
than positive. And there is a man
on the way out.
It has become a familiar tale.
The specific tenure case of
Curt Smith began drawing attention several weeks ago when the
professor decided to present new
evidence to Acting English Department Chairman. Donald
Stauffer - evidence that, he felt,
would benefit his cause and did
eventually lead to a second vote
by his departmental peers.
Alan Wheelock:
by Jay Hashmall
In the continuing conlro
versies surrounding the hiring,
promotion and tenure practices
at lhis university, there has been
uncovered a tradition winch has
spurred much criticism and re
sentment from students in and
around the English Department
There is an unwritten depari
menial policy, allegedly exlending from academic tradition
across the nation, lhat forbid
The first vote by department
members ended in a 20-20 deadlock. The second tipped the
scales to Smith by a vote of
35-19.
It was the latter vote that
buoyed the hopes of Smith's
supporters. The elation was to
be short-lived because Acting
Chairman Stauffer soon responded with a negative recommendation.
And the case began its ascent
through the multi-layered bureaucracy.
Interested students visited with
Ruth Schmidt, Associate Dean
of the College of Arts and Sciences, to discuss the case. Her
recommendation, ultimately,
was a positive one.
I. Moyer Hunsberger. Dean of
the College of Arts and Sciences,
was the next recipienl of Smith's
case. The Arts and Sciences
Committee discussed the merits
of granting Smith tenure after
professors from teaching at the
same institution from which
they received their doctorate.
This policy has recently come to
light as Mr. Alan Wheelock, an
instructor in the English Department, is obtaining his doctoral
degree from SUNYA at tlie end
of this semester.
Allegedly fur (Ins reason, Mr.
Wheelock can no longer teach
Albany State students, but instead musl find employment
elsewhere in the already overpopulated lob market.
hearing Smith and one of his
former students - Michael Lippman - speak and field a variety
of questions.
The vote of that committee
composed of both faculty and
students, brought more bad
news. It was uniformly negative.
Smith was told Dean Hunsberger's recommendation and an
explanation of the committee's
vote would be forthcoming.
As of this writing, it has not
been received, and Hunsberger
could not be reached for official
comment.
While they watched and waited,
the supporters of Smith met to
review the evidence of his case.
They feel he is qualified because
of the interest his courses generate among the student body,
because they claim he ranked
fourth among members of the
English Department last year in
publications and awards and. finally, because of his "continuing

have come together to express
hitter resentment over Ihe loss
of such a fine teacher Marty
Schal'fer, a spokesman for the
group, ridiculed the policy as a
silly bureaucratic tradition and
stated that Wheclock's leaching
effectiveness is "too good to give
up." And when speaking lo the
many students who have taken
Wheelock's courses, there seems
to be a feeling of near unanimity
in this praise.

broadened research and in the
number of "professionals who
seek his work and advice."
But his backers are uncertain
mental policy of not continuing
the employment of instructors
who have received their doctor
ates from the same university is
the entire basis for not considering Wheelock's appointment,
furthermore, Stauffer agreed
lhat this is a good policy as it
would create an "unhealthy
situation" for both the professor
and the university as a whole if
there was not a transfer of students to another college when
they began to teach. Ruth
Schmidt, Associate Dean of Arts
and Science, Division of Humanities, concurred. Dean Schmidt
sialed lhat this policy prevented
what is known as "inbreeding"
allowing fresh ideas lo enter not
only the department but the
mind of the professor as well.
However, Dean Schmidt hinted
lhat il was good as a general rule
bul not necessarily as an absolute policy. And if one flips
through a faculty catalogue you

If y o u ' r e in the m o o d to
interview a prodigy, you might
try t o talk t o Jeffrey Soreff;
Jeffrey is a s t u d e n t at Harvard
University w h o enrolled
there
last fall - at t h e age of 13.
As t h e y o u n g e s t s t u d e n t in
Harvard history ,
obviously
Jeffrey
has been
bombarded
with q u e s t i o n s a n d interview req u e s t s from n u m e r o u s r e p o r t e r s .
As a result, he has a p p a r e n t l y

A c c o r d i n g to Boston's Real Pa

Jeffrey off guard: it interviewed
him briefly last fall, and then

Jeffrey r e p o r t e d t h a t he was

attack m a c h i n e which he said
would use microwaves ( q u o t e )

explained that you could use the

to prove this t h a t it has been
recorded that t h e priests of that

the right t o d i v o r c e a n d could

T h e passages in t h e New Testam e n t illustrate J e s u s ' a t t i t u d e s .
We will o n l y look a t t h r e e here.
In H e b r e w s o c i e t y of J e s u s '
p e r i o d it was t h o u g h t t o be
below a m a n t o speak t o a
w o m a n in public. We find rec o r d e d , in t h e fourth c h a p t e r of
J o h n ' s Gospel, Jesus publicly
conversing with a w o m a n near a
well. F u r t h e r , he takes the side
of I In* w o m a n ( a n d justice ( in
the " i h r n w t h e first s t o n e " epiMid*' in t h e eighth
chapter.
Finally, he says t h a t Mary " h a d
chosen t h e b e t t e r p a r t " by listening t o his t e a c h i n g rather
than doing t h e " w o m a n ' s w o r k "
of t h e h o u s e , in t h e t e n t h chapter of L u k e ' s G o s p e l . This was at
,< t i m e w h e n learning a n y t h i n g
o t h e r than h o u s e chores was
frowned u p o n for w o m e n . T h e r e
are many o t h e r e x a m p l e s like
these w h e r e Jesus t r e a t s men and
w o m e n n o t as s e p a r a t e classes,
but as b r o t h e r s a n d sisters alienated from O u r F a t h e r in heaven
Certainly Christians can do no
less than follow his e x a m p l e .
St. Paul -Paul's a t t i t u d e s o n
w o m e n a r e f r e q u e n t l y believed
to be s u m m e d up in t h e following passages from his epistles:
1 ) " A n y w o m a n w h o prays or
p r o p h e s y s with h e r head uncovered d i s h o n o r s her head -it is
the same as if h e r head were
s h a v e n . " (1 Corinthian:. 11 .))
2) " W o m e n s h o u l d keep Ml.-nt
,n t h e c h u r c h e s . F o r t h e y are n o t
p e r m i t t e d to speak and should
remain s u b o r d i n a t e even as t h e
law s a y s . " ( l C o r i n t h i a n s 1 4 : 3 4 )
;i) " L e t a w o m a n learn in
silence with all s u b m i s s i o n . I
permit no w o m a n t o teach or t o
have a u t h o r i t y o v e r m e n ; s h e is
to
keep
silent." U Timothy
2:11-12)
There
are t w o i m p o r t u n l
T r a d i t i o n s of t h e p e o p l e fit in
here t o o . In Paul's d a y in t h e
time when Genesis was p u t on
paper it w a s n ' t c o m m o n for
y o u n g u n m a r r i e d w o m e n t o be
on their o w n . F o r this reason it
is likely t h a t Paul never ran into
such a s i t u a t i o n . So does y Christian find no t e a c h i n g regarding
them?
Quite t h e c o n t r a r y ! We here

How is this significant? Well, if

an apostle which places a whole
new light on s t u d i e s of w o m e n
in t h e early ehurch--especially
when placed against o u r three
scripture references.
There is a great deal of o t h e r
information on this subject, and
this is only a small part. I h o p e
I've kindled y o u r interest t o

mice.
What h a p p e n e d t o t h e m relates
to y o u .
T h e y call Dr. J o h n C a l h o u n
" L o r d of t h e M i c e . " F o r five
years he has been " p l a y i n g g o d "
in a s e p a r a t e world of his o w n .
He t u r n e d back civilization's
clock
a n d s t a r t e d over. He
created an Eden on e a r t h - f o r
mice. A Utopia in which t h e r e
was p l e n t y of everything-- p l e n t y
of food, perpetual fair w e a t h e r ,
I e m p e r a te
el i m a t e ,
freedom
from all natural enemies, total
isolation from disease germs. A
paradise for mice.
This Garden of Eden for m i c e
was first p o p u l a t e d with f o u r
couples in space a d e q u a t e t o
comfortably a c c o m m o d a t e 1 6 0 .
During t h e first t w o years t h e
mouse
population
increased
from t h e original eight t o 2 , 2 0 0 .
As t h e confines grew c r o w d e d ,
s o m e mice began t o segregate
themselves into groups of a b o u t
a dozen each a n d t o reject
o t h e r s . T h e rejection of o t h e r s
turned
t o violence
toward
others. T h e rejected reverted t o
sexual aggression.
F r o m this p r e o c c u p a t i o n w i t h
sex, per se, the social " o r d e r "
disintegrated and was d e s t r o y e d .
That is to say, any instinct for
" l a w and o r d e r " was negated by
carnal passion until a t i m e when
the social order had d e g e n e r a t e d
completely.
This m o u s e c o l o n y had everything a m o u s e c o u l d need and, at
first, e v e r y t h i n g a m o u s e could
want.
After that there was a conspicuous loss of sexual interest. Ultimately the m o u s e p o p u l a t i o n
became passive and lost all interest in sex.
Dr. Calhoun observes t h a t their
needs were supplied; t h e r e was a
total absence of s t r e s s - e x c e p t
for that stress which t h e inhabitants themselves generated within themselves. He says this was
a p p a r e n t almost from t h e beginning. They were " n o t c o n t e n t
to be c o n t e n t . "
A formal a n d detailed r e p o r t

and Social C h a n g e . " Space limit a t i o n s allow n o m o r e t h a n a
synopsis here.
At a n y time in t h e past five
years, particularly as their p o p u lation dwindled, it was assumed
t h e mice might have reverted t o
normal social relationships. But
t h e y did n o t . A p p a r e n t l y , by

refrigerator
policy. T h e
most frequent c o m m e n t involves
s t u d e n t s ' desires t o purchase
their o w n refrigerators instead of
having t o lease t h e m from t h e
university. A great deal of research was d o n e o n this q u e s t i o n
by t h e C o m m i t t e e on Refrigerator Leasing, which last spring
o p e n e d the refrigerator c o n t r a c t
to c o m p e t i t i v e
bidding. T h e
c o m m i t t e e , c o m p o s e d of five administrators a n d four s t u d e n t s ,
including myself, found s o m e
very
convincing
reasons
for
maintaining a policy of leasing
refrigerators only. These reasons
are
(1 ) T h e refrigerator u n i t leased
on c a m p u s , which is t h e m o s t
economical unit available with
regard to cost a n d electrical
usage, sells retail for a b o u t $ 8 0 .
Should an individual s t u d e n t or
a g r o u p of s t u d e n t s p u r c h a s e this
unit, h e / t h e y would assume t h e
following expenses: yearly inspection, which could run from
$10-15 per i n s p e c t i o n , and all
repairs. T h e $ 2 0 per year that
the s t u d e n t pays t o lease a refrigerator covers inspection and all
m a i n t e n a n c e charges, with an
additional service being t h e avail
ability of a repair m a n o n campus five days a week.
(2) T w o or m o r e s t u d e n t s intending t o live t o g e t h e r for m o r e

ALBANY STUDENT PRESS
price of purchasing and maintaining a refrigerator
among
themselves. In point of fact, t h e
$H0 t h e s t u d e n t s pay t o purchase
the
refrigerator
just
m a t c h e s t h e cost of leasing a
refrigerator for four years. T h e
o b v i o u s difference is the undet e r m i n e d costs of m a i n t e n a n c e ,
which falls u p o n t h e purchaser
but n o t u p o n t h e leaser. Additional p r o b l e m s that m a y arise
for
the
purchaser
include
possession of t h e refrigerator
during the s u m m e r a n d finding
time t o t a k e it o u t t o be fixed.
Leasing a refrigerator eliminates
these p r o b l e m s .
( 3 ) If t h e c o m p a n y that n o w
leases refrigerators t o the university were also allowed t o sell
units t o s t u d e n t s , t h e units sold
and leased w o u l d be identical.
This w o u l d b e necessary because, as I m e n t i o n e d before,
this u n i t is the most e c o n o m i c a l .
What would s t o p s o m e o n e from
replacing a damaged unit which
he o w n e d with a leased unit, a n d
t u r n i n g in the damaged unit t o
t h e university a t t h e e n d of t h e
leasing period? Of c o u r s e , t h e
units c o u l d be n u m b e r e d , t h e
color changed, e t c . , b u t t h e fact
remains t h a t this w o u l d c r e a t e a
s i t u a t i o n similar t o t h a t of furniture or h o t plates; periodic
i n s p e c t i o n s w o u l d have t o b e
m a d e t o check for illegal refrige r a t o r s that s t u d e n t s m a y have
p u r c h a s e d o u t s i d e t h e university.
T h e necessity of m a i n t a i n i n g a n d
limiting the type of unit presently being leased I will n o w clarify:
(4) The refrigerator units that
are now being leased use a mini
m u m a m o u n t of electricity for
starling and operating in comparison to other units on the
market. This was an i m p o r t a n t
requirement in d e t e r m i n i n g o u r
current policy. Very often superstructures such as d o r m i t o r i e s
are subject t o faulty electrical
systems caused by c o n t i n u o u s
overloading of circuits. M a n y refrigerator units, despite being
t h e same size as those leased on
c a m p u s , use a great deal m o r e
electricity. This is especially t r u e
in t h e starting of a refrigerator,
for getting it down t o t h e p r o p e r

If you're sure every way of
reasoning with her has been
attempted, perhaps y o u should
try ignoring her. A bit of cold
treatment and she might realize
what she's doing. Y o u say she
keeps y o u entertained. Perhaps
(consciously or unconsciously)
y o u are encouraging her to continue her antics. In which case,
not paying attention to her
actions may at least persuade her
to t o n e d o w n a bit.
P.S. We think y o u s h o u l d t a k e

about other things. R e c e n t l y I've
found a situation where this
dislike of people has struck very
close to home. N a m e l y , in job
interviews, I have been having to
talk about m y experience, education, qualifications, e t c . This
makes m e very uncomfortable,
as y o u can probably imagine.
The worst situations are where I
think J have some g o o d points in
relation to the job being discussed. (Building myself up in

suggestions as t o how I can feel

"Self-ambivilized"
Dear "Self-ambivilized",
Dear Ask the Asp,
Most of m y c h i l d h o o d close
friends were t h e k i n d w h o never
stopped
talking a b o u t
themselves, always enjoyed bragging;
in general, they could never d o
e n o u g h to build themselves u p in
the eyes of o t h e r p e o p l e . As a
result I have grown t o dislike
p e o p l e w h o talk a b o u t themselves (or at least he wary of
these p e o p l e ) , especially iT they
seem to hi1 saying h o w good
they are, h o w smart they are,
how cool they a r e , e t c .
F o r t u n a t e l y I've f o u n d t h a t
with
my b e t t e r friends this
d o e s n ' t m a t t e r t o o m u c h , because 1 see enough of t h e m t o
form my o w n o p i n i o n s , and I
T h e line b e t w e e n conceit a n d
self-confidence is n a r r o w , b u t
you must realize t h a t t h e r e is a
distinction. And y o u r aim is t o
gain m o r e s e l f - c o n f i d e n c e in
speaking. Perhaps y o u r
best
course of action
would be
t h r o u g h those b e t t e r friends y o u
m e n t i o n . If you can discuss t h e
p r o b l e m with t h e m , y o u will
have m a d e t h e first s t e p in talking to o t h e r s a b o u t yourself,
R e m e m b e r , they will n o t take
what you say as bragging a b o u t
yourself . . . they are close to
you a n d k n o w b e t t e r . When y o u
find that you can talk comfortably a b o u t yourself t o y o u r

Ross Hunter's "Airport"
by Larry Menkes
The producer, Ross Hunter,
brings to life Arthur Hailey's
best-selling novel Airport. He lias
brought together twenty-three
academy-award-winning actresses and actors. "Airport" is a
powerful suspense drama Ihat
takes place at night during a
seven-hour period while an international airport in the midwest
is plagued by a crippling blizzard. A mired airplane is blocking a vital runway and a second
jetliner is trying to limp back
home after surviving a mid-air
bomb blast. The audience will
feel the jarring tension of the
explosion as if experiencing it
first-hand.
The film revolves around the
contrasting roles of the characters both at the airport and in
their personal lives. The characters each stand at the critical
poinl of their personal lives and
the decisions which they must
make are made in the tensionfilled setting of the airport, bach
decision that they make will
have serious repercussions on the
lives and the decisions of I he
others.
The characters are familiar
ones, but the performances of
the cast make litem rare. Helen
Hayes, as the innocent old lady,
has once again proven that she is
indeed the first lady of show
business. She exists in her own
oblivious and happy world. The
methods of world-wide travel
which she uses are only outdone
by her description of them to
Mel Bakersfeld and his assistant
(Jean Seaberg).
Dean Martin, as liern Dcmcr-
est, the pilot of the bombinjured jetliner is seen in a role
far removed from his Thursday
night booze sessions on NBC. He
exhibits a great degree of sensitivity in dealing with his pregnant mistress, who is also his
stewardess, as well as the passengers for whom he is responsible.
Burt Lancaster's performance
of Mel Bakersfeld is of the same
c a l i b e r as his a cade myaward-winning porlrayal of "Elmer Gantry." His "thc-hellwith-you" attitude earns the
audience's respect ami admiration. In his role, one sees lite
problems of a man conljonted
by adversity on all sides a man
watching his hie crumble around
him.
The Director George S e a l o n
used a refrigeration system and
other techniques on the set during the filming to make the
conditions as real as possible.
This movie has received the high
esl ratings from many reviewers

by Bill Brina
A recurrent problem that all
reviewers must live with is the
threat of creeping staleness: one
hears so much that is so similar
(and of so little worth) that soon
the ability to react with
unalloyed enthusiasm to a new
artist gets frayed away. It's
doubly delightful, then to herald
the debut of a new artist (new to
American; ears, at any rale)
who's simply brillant. The
man's name is John Mailyn &
his album Solid Air (Island
SW9325, distributed by Capitol
Records) is simply one of the
best
(and
most
totally
unexpected)releases of l l )7.!.
The packaging is stunning; the
songs (mostly original) are
blessed with skipping, lilting
melodies and simple yet staitlingly vivid lyric imagery, John's
vocals are fascinating and the
playing (by assorled English
jazz, folk, & rock luminaries)
impeccable.
sold at the Palace Theatre for $8.00 beginning Thursday morning.
With the proper exposure and
intelligent promotion, John Martyn
could be a full-fledged star.
However, Island will have to do
more for him than they've done
so far: he's been 'packaged' on a
tour with Free & Traffic. The
former is a prototypical English
hard-rock band (albeit with an
occasional gill lor producing
interesting music) and Ihc latter
is a once-outstanding super-band
fallen on h„id times lately, so
John's in danger of getting lost
in the shuffle for a while yel.
liu I fear n o t ; s o m e d a y ,
somehow, Mailyn just has to
break through.

Time to Celebrate
by Douglas U Comte
by Robert Mayer
The Absurdity of the Affair
A group calling itself tlie "Campus Coalition" is very angry this week.
And justifiably so. Many of the Coalition's members used to work on the
now deceased publication, Sweetfire which had some $3500 left in its
budget when it folded last month.
According to Coalition members, they were told that the left over money
would be donated to Medical Aid for Indochina in order to rebuild the
bombed Bach Mai Hospital, and for the Attica defense Fund.
The money was to be donated through honorariums for speakers from the
two above organizations: William Kuntsler for Attica Fund and Noam
Chomsky for Bach Mai.
The money, however, could not be appropriated until the speaking
engagements were formally arranged. Temporarily, the money from the
newspaper budget was returned to the Central Council's budget.
The arrangements.' for the two speakers were soon concluded. But
around that same time Central Council voted its entire remaining budget
(including the Sweetfire money), consisting of over SI 0,000, plus an
enormous sum from Concert Board, to offer the Allman Brothers Band a
grand total of $36,000 to perform at the Palace Theatre one night in
March. The concert will cost tax card carrying students $4 to attend, and
$8 for outsiders.
Meanwhile, there is no more money left for the Bach Mai or Attica
Speakers, and the Student Association Emergency Spending Line now
stands at zero.
The absurdity of the whole affair is obvious. To spend $36,000 for one
band for one night, including money originally promised for rebuilding a
civilian hospital and aiding poor people with legal advice is an obscenity.
This is, indeed, an insult to the entire University Community.
We await an explanation from Student Association leaders.

The Waterman Lesson
1
ttWiWftvAW:
T h e Waterman case is finally over.
It has been some four m o n t h s since the
Psychology Department o p e n e d t h e castby delivering its negative r e c o m m e n d a tion. They said that l h e beleagured Assistant Professor should be denied both
tenure and p r o m o t i o n , and for Dr Carol
Waterman the future looked unpromising
Then followed Department Chairman
Teevan's letters of transmittal, and the
publishing of the "Waterman P a p e r s " in
the ASP.
And t h e invective against her became
stronger. Her o p p o n e n t s labled her re
search "trivial". They said she was unable
to work well with her colleagues And
they claimed she was merely a " g o o d "
undergraduate teacher
Fortunately for Waterman, not many
people believed the critics. Not even Dean
Hunsberger of the College of Arls and
Sciences, who fell compelled t o approve
her for both p r o m o t i o n and t e n u r e
T h e Hunsberger decision
surprised
everyone, since he had made s o m e rather
unsympathetic statements a b o u t her case.
He received her s t u d e n t s u p p o r t e r s cooly,
and downplayed the i m p o r t a n c e of the
2300 signatures collected on petitions
No o n e expected him to say " y e s . "
That was the turning point in the case.
Everyone
expected
Associate
Dean
Melvin Bers to back Waterman But The
most i m p o r t a n t influence on Hunsberger
appears to have been pressure from stu
den Is a n d the p r o p o n e n t s of "strong
undergraduate teaching". Waterman's stu
d e n t testimonials were all uxfremely
favorable, and it was obvious t h a t she ia a
t o p undergraduate teacher. T o deny her
t e n u r e would have been t a n t a m o u n t t o
denying the i m p o r t a n c e of good under

could n o t , in good conscience, d o t h a t .
T h e main issue was teaching ability. T r y
as they did, Teevan a n d t h e d e p a r t m e n t
could n o t m a k e a sufficiently big issue
o u t of research. Waterman effectively
defused t h a t issue when she revealed t h e
Science Citation Index figures.
And her reasearch wasn't really all thai
bad in t h e first place.
Last b u t n o t least. Waterman w o n be
cause of t h e strong d e t e r m i n a t i o n of her
s t u d e n t s u p p o r t e r s t o keep o n pushing.
They claim that they would n o t have

University Council had all v o t e d against
her. O n e s t u d e n t leader later c o m m e n t e d .

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1973
It s e e m s if y o u cloak your misdeeds
with high sounding humanitarian'objectives y o u can get away with anything.
Government "standards" forced upon
business lead n o t only t o higher prices for
t h e c o n s u m e r , b u t also t o a lessening of
variety and quality in t h e goods produced.
A d r u g c o m p a n y , for instance, has little
incentive t o p r o d u c e a really innovative
and s u p e r i o r p r o d u c t , since an F D A
b u r e a u c r a t m u s t approve it first. Civil
servants look u p o n e v e r y t h i n g innovative
with grave suspicion (playing it safe is t h e
way t o get a d v a n c e m e n t in t h e federal
b u r e a u c r a c y ) so the p r o d u c t will n o t be
a c c e p t e d , or else it will be p u t through an
expensive series of tests a n d e x p e r i m e n t s .
Ultimately Lhe drug c o m p a n y m a y decide
it is just not e c o n o m i c a l to produce
a n y t h i n g really innovative. Milton Friedm a n , well k n o w n free-market e c o n o m i s t ,
recently pointed o u t in a
Newsweek

poison sumac leaves or have a perverted
relationship with m y gerbil,- I'm n o t
hurting anyone else but myself (and may*
be my gerbil) and it should be outside the
realm of the law t o punish m e . Laws
concerning private u s e of drugs, s e x between consenting partners, gambling, prost i t u t i o n - these a r e all laws based o n the
notion that government authorities know
w h a t ' s best for m e . T h i s is p a t e r n a l i s m .
T h e s e laws inhibit o u r freedom of choice,
invade o u r privacy, encourage police corr u p t i o n , a n d c o n t r i b u t e t o lack of respect
for t h e police and g o v e r n m e n t a u t h o r i t y
in general.
T h e r e are o t h e r e x a m p l e s which inhibit
freedom of choice which are less discussed b u t perhaps more insidious.

Il is n o w o n d e r t h a t t h e release ol the
:>()() POW's has brought so much emotion
and humility back into t h e hearts ol Ibis
nation. More than a n y t h i n g else, these
men came to symbolize a continuing
Vietnam war. How m a n y limes were we
informed by o u r president that the I'OW
issue was t h e basis of an h o n o r a b l e p e a c e '
How many Americans wore on the arms
bracelets inscribed with t h e names ol men
captured by t h e c o m m u n i s t s ? How m a i n
bumper stickers, editorials, speeches, and
letters were written in their behalf? So
now the happy tears of Americans, the
red-carpet t r e a t m e n t , the new Fords foi
the POW's, t h e personal victory lor
Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger, will
give the Vietnam war t h e kind of dignity
it never achieved on t h e battlefield.
Well, n o w some ambitious g o v e r n m e n t
agency in Washington has t h o u g h t of t h e
answer t o t h e "vast w a s t e l a n d " of T V
programs that we poor souls are eternally
forced to watch: have t h e g o v e r n m e n t
operate its o w n network with a h o o k u p
on each and every private T V set. I t t u r n s
on automatically-so we'll have t o watch.
This way we ostensibly get tuned i n t o the
latesl impending natural disater news
threatening us luckless souls living near
flood prone valleys, burning timberlands,
cascading mud slides, invading tsetse fly
orgies, or whatever.
This proposal for a government n e t w o r k
was reported last fall in The New York
Times, hut incredulous reporters caused
White House aides t o deny it was being
given serious thought. This is just o n e
example, however, of how g o v e r n m e n t
bureaucrats, in their zeal to p r o t e c t t h e
citizens, have c o m e up with ideas that
would bring I9H4 chillingly close
In Texas there is a town where an
a u t o m a t i c camera perched above t h e
streets lakes snap shots of " s p e e d e r s . "
These incriminating photos are mailed to
the offender's h o m e along with a s u m
mons Trouble is, the guy's wife may
open his mail first and wonder who that
nice blond was in hubby's P l y m o u t h . Bui
George Washington, Abruhum Lincoln,
a n d Franklin D. Roosevelt had agreed to
s o m e kind of "forgiveness."
We can n o t look at t h e release of our
POW's as an isolated victory or celeb r a t i o n . It is only t h e tip of Lhe iceberg
t h a i covers ten years of great a g o n y and
c r u e l t y . T h e r e are t h o u s a n d s a n d thousands of p e o p l e in this n a t i o n t o d a y who
can never forget all that this fanfare, this
celebration, this e u p h u r i a , is a t t e m p t i n g
t o eruse.

Petaln's body has been found It was
found just lying a r o u n d .
F r e n c h Marshal Petain, World War I
hero of Verdun and World War II Fascist
c o l l a b o r a t o r , was stolen from his exile's
grave last S u n d a y night, and found by the
gendarmery in Paris, Wednesday T h e
theft was a p p a r e n t l y m a s t e r m i n d e d by
Hubert Massol, a righl wing c a n d i d a t e for
next m o n t h ' s national elections. Massol
wishes to see Petain's repuluLion rehabilitated, and his body buried al V e r d u n - t h e
battlefield where 1 0 0 , 0 0 0 died, und Petain wanLed Lo be laid.
Massol and four fellow diggers have

what Lo d o with the remains Whether he
returns Petain to his traitor's grave or

So far, Petain himself has behaved with
m o r e eircumspeelion than he did while
alive; he m a y be the only one t o emerge
from t h e controversy s u r r o u n d i n g him
unscathed. T h e r e are few m o r e difficult

When all the world is talking al odds,

back in return, when, as Melville said, t h e

I hardly e x p e c t s t u d e n t s to m a k e every

does it do'.' S o m e s t u d e n t s and reporters
heal their brains o u t t o save Waterman

What's t h e use y o u c a n ' t win t h e m all,

Many of those teachers u n d o u b t e d l y

unsettles s o m e people here. And Curt is
only a Marxist. T h e u n e m p l o y m e n t line is
a haven for subversives; o u t
there
searching for a classroom are anarchists
and Republicans and worse. Smith is
lucky he's had a job as long as he has.
Yet still, if n o b o d y has enough energy
to write letters, or visit s o m e of the
people along the decision-making r o u t e ,
can't we at least force those people t o
make a pretense of logic in this action to

An Offer Not to Refuse
To the editor:
I am writing c o n c e r n i n g a problem
which affects those of us w h o use t h e
library extensively. T h a n k s to t h e proliferation of a m a t u e r Mafioso who exult in
ripping off b o o k s , jackets, e t c . , from
persons using the library - articles which
they may n o t need o r ever use - those of
us w h o have a great deal of research to d o
are forced to carry a b o u t with us o u r
coats, text h o o k s , n o t e b o o k s , e t c . , when
we are searching for library materials.
While it is b u t a m i n o r inconvenience, it is
an inconvenience. I prefer to c o n c e n t r a t e
up«
my research w t t h o u l the e n c u m b e r arv
apparel designed for 2 0 degree
ten

degree library. I prefer to have t h e freed o m to m a k e n o t e s or to utilize t h e
b o o k s of t h e library w i t h o u t t h e inconvenience of carrying a b o u t n o t e b o o k s and
various o t h e r articles which may or may
not pertain to the research at hand.
As I know of no c o m m i t t e e to which I
might appeal, 1 am writing to t h e ASP to
suggest that s o m e w h e r e in t h e library •perhaps in the d o w n s t a i r s hallways or in
the lobbies - lockers be installed of t h e
variety in use m t h e b o o k s t o r e ( 2 5 cents,

display of b o o k s written a b o u t the assassination a n d related events.
Last night I received a p h o n e call from
Mr. Saltzman (I had m a d e the arrangem e n t s for t h e l e c t u r e ) a n d was informed
by h i m t h a t he found o n e or t w o of the
b o o k s missing from his collection when he
was preparing to speak a t S k i d m o r c this
past M o n d a y night. Since he h a d n ' t unpacked this material since his appearance
in Albany t h e previous Wednesday, it is
obvious t h a t s o m e person or persons (a
conspiracy p e r h a p s ? ) m a d e off with the
books from LC 7 here al SUNYA.
Needless t o say, S a l t z m a n is distressed
by this s t a t e of affairs as these hooks ure
virtually irreplaceable since they are o u t
of print, n o t to m e n t i o n t h e fact t h a t
they provide him with information und
material for his work.
In this regard he asked m e to make a
plea to t h o s e involved in t h e larceny to
please r e t u r n t h e books--no questions
asked. A reasonable p r o c e d u r e would be
to leave t h e m ut t h e Campus Center
i n f o r m a t i o n desk. If that s e e m s t o o intimidating, a p h o n e call t o m e (-1720400)
arranging a pick-up s p o t would be fine
A n o t h e r o p t i o n would be to send them
directly to h i m T h e address is: Robert B
S a l t /. m a n ,
C T I A, P.O. Box 7 0 0 ,
Schenectady, N Y . 12301.
T h e i m p o r t a n t thing is for him to get
his b o o k s back, i repeat that there will be
no e m b a r r a s s m e n t to those involved; and
1 would urge those responsible t o comply
with this r e q u e s t as soon as possible.

Danes Finally Win On Road

T h e H a w k s from N e w Paltz
»vere shot d o w n before t h e y
c o u l d ever get off the ground
Wednesday
night,
when
the
Albany State matmen hunted
t h e m d o w n by the score of 44-0.
It was evident early t h a t it was
the night for the Danes. Expecting t o lose the 118 lb. class
via a forfeit, ( d u e t o an injury t o
Walt Katz) the D a n e s received
the good news t h a t N e w Paltz
was also going to forfeit it,
a l o n g with 1 2 6 lbs. and heavyweight. T h e forfeit in the heavyweight division was a disappointment to the crowd who wanted
t o see S U N Y c h a m p R u d y Vido.
T h e m a t c h e s were oyer quickly. E t h a n G r o s s m a n b r o k e a losing streak b e a t i n g his o p p o n e n t
5-0. Larry Mims followed with a
pin in 2 : 1 1 of the second period.
At this point the c r o w d was
aware that a s h u t o u t was a
possiblity.
Senior Jeff A l b r e c h t wrestling
his last m a t c h in the S U N Y A
gym won a s u p e r i o r decision
11-0. Jeff tried vainly t o pin his
o p p o n e n t b u t could not find the
right c o m b i n a t i o n .
T o m Horn had the same problem. He d o m i n a t e d his m a t c h
but could not find the pinning
c o m b i n a t i o n and h a d t o s e t t l e
for a 9-2 decision.
D o u g Bauer s t a r t e d off slow
and was actually b e h i n d u n t i l
the very e n d of the s e c o n d
p e r i o d w h e n he barely b e a t the
b u z z e r w i t h a t a k e d o w n . B u t all
d o u b t was erased o n w h o was
the b e t t e r wrestler in the last
p e r i o d , as Bauer m o p p e d the
ring with his o p p o n e n t . He actually pinned him twice, the first
t i m e o n the fringe of t h e m a t
and the referee ruled t h a t t h e y
w e r e off it, t h e s e c o n d t i m e in
the middle of the m a t in 6 : 1 4 .
T h e m o s t exciting m a t c h was
senior J i m D i c k s o n ' s . Dickson
a l w a y s c o m e s o u t to give his all,
and he gave the c r o w d a thrill.
He picked u p his m a n a n u m b e r
of times, s l a m m i n g h i m t o the
m a t . T h o u g h he fell b e h i n d in
points
early,
his

T h e Pups w e n t t o New Paltz
this past Wednesday, and may
never go back again. It is r a r e
t h a t a team devastates a n o t h e r in
the J.V. Leagues, b u t this was
o n e of t h o s e e x c e p t i o n s , as the
Pups now
H-3 simply overw h e l m e d tlie o p p o s i t i o n by a
score of 9 2 - 5 8 .
T h e game o p e n e d with the
Pups, led by Harold Merritt,
seoring the first 9 p o i n t s , T h e
lead
quickly
opened
to
12
p o i n t s , and Merritt sunk
14
p o i n t s in the first 1 m i n u t e s of
play. As New Paltz i m m e d i a t e l y
found o u t , he c o u l d score at
will, and w o u l d leave the game
early in the s e c o n d half after
seoring a record 32 p o i n t s .
With 8 : 2 2 left in the first half
the hapless New Pall/. 5 found
o u t a b o u t a n o t h e r key Pup scorer, Jose Alicea, w h o hit the first
of 10 straight p o i n t s right then
and t h e r e . T h e lead q u i c k l y
Widened t o 23 p o i n t s , and the
game appeared to be as in the
bag as ever, and for o n c e the
P u p s k e p t it that way.
When Alicea w e n t c o l d five
m i n u t e s later, Rich K a p n e r t o o k
u p the slack, hitting r e p e a t e d l y
from the corners, and b a l l o o n i n g
the lead to 28 points. When New
Paltz finally
put 4
straight
baskets together, t h a n k s t o s o m e
sloppy play by the P u p defense
the buzzer went off t o e n d t h e
first half with the score 5 2 - 3 2 .
T h e o p e n i n g of the s e c o n d half
saw the Pups p u t up a veritable
c a n y o n between themselves and
the outclassed New Paltzer's, as
the bulge reached 3 2 p o i n t s .
Finally, it was time for the
rarely used Pup subs, w h o got in
s o m e valuable playing l i m e for
m o s t of the second half. Against
o u r second stringers, New Paltz
could d o nothing, and needless
to say, the Pups won, 9 2 - 5 8 .
Coach Lewis was pleased, b u t
realistic, about. I he win. "We
pulled the fast break off very
well and o p e n e d it up early.
Kapner had a great game in every
c a t e g o r y , and M e r r i t t scored at
will. However, Now Paltz is n o t
o n e of the s t r o n g e r t e a m s we
play, so y o u have to p u t the
game
into
its
proper
per
s p e c t i v e . " Agreed, buL it's nice to
beat a team y o u are s u p p o s e d to
beat by
a 34 [joint margin.
L o o k i n g back just o n e m o n t h
ago, the Pups were d o w n in the
d u m p s with a 1 -4 r e c o r d
no
offense, p o o r defense, and a
pessimistic future. Things changed r a t h e r r a p i d l y , w h e n the
P u p s ' t w o key players joined the
t e a m in J a n u a r y , Harold Merritt
and Rich K a p n e r . S u d d e n l y , the
t e a m was scoring, r e b o u n d i n g ,
and m o s t i m p o r t a n t l y , winning.
Merrill has been simply devastating on offense, averaging IK
poi n ts pe r ga m e , a nd m erel y
lacks the defensive ability that
e x p e r i e n c e will bring. K a p n e r
has simply been the Pups Jerry
Lucas - - he can d o it all, He is
averaging ten p o i n t s per game
c o n s i s t e n t l y r e b o u n d s in d o u b l e
figures, and adds the steady de
fense thai the Pups need t o win

FSA's Going Under, So Board's Going Up
What seemed to get Lampert
most incensed was that part of
the proposal which granted
management the "authority" to
hike cash prices in the Campus
Center, but did not mandate the
action. Cash operations in the
cafeteria have continually lost
money while the quadrangles
have consistently turned a
profit-which means not only are
resident students bailing out the
rest of FSA, they are bailing out
the rest of food service as well.

The Board of Directors of the
Faculty Student Association put
off their final vote on a proposed board increase Friday,
after student members argued
that they wanted to see the
proposal in writing before
casting their voles on the
measure.
The postponement was a victory for students, but probably a
short-lived one. The Directors
are expected to approve the 4%
across-the-board food hike when
1 hey meet in special session
within two weeks.
The boost will add up lo $26
lo the cost of a student board
contract per year. Increases in
cash food prices in Ihe Campus
Center can also be expecled
once the authorization is voted.
While Ihe meeting was anti-dimaclic in its final outcome, it
did provide valuable insight into
the student role within Ihe
"non-profit" FSA corporation.
FSA Acting Director li.
Norberl Zahm said the board
increase is necessary because of
rising food prices, exlra feeding
days, an anticipated employee
pay increase, and a "number of
things that could happen."
Included among the latter category are a drop in university
enrollment (which would result
in less Income for the corporation), an increase in Ihe cosl of
bank loans, and an increase in
direct operating expenses. Zahm
labeled these uncertain expenses
"management risks."
"You nevei know when somebody is going lo gel caught in a
conveyer belt-and there goes
voui direct opeiaiing expenses,"
Financial
"I can't buy the proposal unless the prices are across-theboard," he said, noting that it
penalized food service students
from "a food services point of
view."
the Acting Director said in explanation of the importance of
the management risk factor.
"Thirteen dollars a semester is
not a sizeable amount " he
added. "We have to cover ourselves for any possible problem
that might come along."
He admitted that food servrce
would show a profit even if the
proposed hike were rejectedsomething food service has consistently done for the past several y e a r s - but added the profit
would be small and food servicewould be "dangerously close" lo
breaking even.
Food profits—coming mainly
from ihe mandated meal plan—
-have helped bail out the other
FSA program items for ihe pasl
several years. In effect
Ibis
means lhal dormitory students
are underwriting the activities of
the corporal ion.
ll is a fiscal reality that llns
will continue once the hike is
granted. And il is to this reality
to which the undergraduate
students at Friday's meeting
most vehemently objected.
"Students shouldn't be penalized when oilier operalions are
al fault," one non-voting student
told Zahm and the board members.
"The contract student is going
lo get s c r e w e d , " Student
A s s o c i a l i o n President Mike
Lampert observed.
But Zahm, along with several
a d m i n i s t r a t i v e and faculty
members, disputed the argument.
"Our financial situation supercedes all our questions of
equity," John Hartley. Vice
President for Management and
Planning said. "We have a
minimum of choices . . . we aie
trying to change the inequities . •
not Ibis or next year, but
several years down the road."
"We're bringing
ihings
around," echoed Economics
Professor Wallei Balk.
"This
thing
(the board
in-
crease) hasn't been treated
lightly." said Zahm.
"You can't change tilings overnight,"
Hartley
reiterated.
"There have been improvements
... you can't perform miracles
and turn the thing right
around."
liven wilh the proposed hike
of 4V,, said Zahm. ihe food
service net profit will be "only
614%" compared to 814% in
1472. W # in l l >71, and 1514%
in 1970.
But, Zahm added hastily, he
was "willing to lake the risk of
the 4% and hoping things will
work out."
"I have qualms about the fact
we are going to raise a nice,
comfortable
m o n e t a r y buffer
al Ihe expense of resident
sludenls," argued Tom Clingan,
a no n-voting undergraduate
student. "We ought to do H al
the expense of other groups."
But Balk told Clingan thai Ihe
cash buffer lhal would result
from raising food prices was not
a "nice healthy buffei but a
suivival buffer."
The remark set off another
round of debate, with Balk
noting thai "To mandate that
And so the arguments continued for well over an hour, until
Ihe students insisted they receive
Ihe actual proposals in writing
and be given time lo appraise
Iheii worth.
The differences between student and administrative members of the FSA—differences
that have been noliceable for
four years now—were besl illustrated in the remarks of Dean
for Student Affairs, Neil Brown.
In explaining why he felt it
was not unfair to have students
build up a financial buffer for
the corporation even though
they were receiving no direct
benefits in return, he said,
"Sludenls several years ago paid
for Camp Dippikill and things
like thai ...there is a legacy each
of us has here in Ihe
institution."
"But what," one student asked
to general laughter, "has posterity ever done for us'.'"

A new program, the Basic Opportunity Grant (BOG) will help

Beeckel fears, some sludenls
