The reaction to findings recently published in the ASP
about Arts and Sciences Dean I.
Moyer Hunsberger's past activities at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst has been
widespread. It represents what
may be the biggest administrative crisis faced by the Benezet
administration so far.
There has been serious discussion among some faculty
members about calling an extra-
ordinary meeting of the faculty
to discuss Hunsberger and tenure
problems. ^Related story - p. 7)
And yesterday afternoon
Walter Goldstein, Professor of
Political Science delivered to the
ASP an statement asking President Benezet to publicly explain
the findings which appeared in
last Friday's ASP.
The ASP articles explained in
detail the events surrounding
Hunsberger's forced resignation
as Arts and Sciences Dean from
the Massachusetts University,
and exposed the alleged "lies"
Hunsberger had made at a meeting of the U Mass history department, called to consider his recommended appointment of a
new history department head.
The disenchantment with
Hunsberger on this campus has
been rising steadily in recent
months, and has resulted in the
formation of an "Oust Hunsberger" movement which, although relatively unorganized, is

nevertheless beginning to have
some significant impact.
And the recent revelations
about alleged deceptions has
created a credibility problem for
the administration here. Will
Benezet answer Goldstein? Will
anyone in the administration say
anything about tlie Hunsberger
affair?
What Professor Goldstein specifically wants to know is
whether the causes of the Hunsberger resignation were under-
Vol. LX,
No. 22
stood in Albany when he was
first appointed Dean, and he
wants to know if the causes were
explained to the search committee and board of trustees if they
were, in fact, known.
He is calling on Benezet to
make a public explanation in
order to avoid "our own Watergate crisis on campus."
So far the administration's reaction has been very cool. VicePresident Sirotkin said late yescontinued on page 6

not explain how a nation that
had witnessed len months of
unequivocable denials by his
own press secretary, how a

and the scandal that has shaken
the Nixon administration.
That was not the case last fall
when Democrats tried to turn
the bugging and burglary of the
Democratic party's headquarters
at the Watergate
officeapartment complex into a campaign issue. The people of Centralia listened to questions about
the morality of the administration, and their reaction seemed to
be the popular one al Ihe time:
"It's something that everyone
does,"
On election day, they voied
solidly for Richard M. Nixon.
Today. Nixon does not appear
to be in any great trouble with
the voters of Centralia. But there
is more questioning.
Ronald TOlarsky, a 28-yearold duplicaling-machine salesman discussed his feelings as he

"I think the whole think
should have been opened up and

"The whole basis of ihe Republican parly is being undermined."

""""iC Goldstein Letter
Hunsberger,
iviittnued from page I
tcrday afternoon that there
would be no immediate comment on the Goldstein statement, and President Benezet indicated the same.
Benezet added that if Goldstein really desires a response, he
will ask the President directly
rather than use the ASP as an
intermediary. Benezet also said
that Hunsberger was the "best
candidate al the time" the
search committee conducted
their deliberations, and that
Hunsberger's past had, indeed,
been examined.
Dean Hunsberger was unavailable for comment.
Why, [hen. was Hunsberger
brought here in the first place'.'
One explanation holds that the
reason Hunsberger was hired
here is essentially the same reason the previous Dean. William
0 . I'cilimitier was fired. Il appears thai Perlmutter's problem
was he sided with students loo
often. There was I he extremely
volatile case of Rhetoric and
Public Address Professor Jerry
Wagner, whom lire students and
Perhmitlei slrongly hacked, bill
whom oilici
adminislralors
opposed Perlmuiter was also
active in lire sliidein slrike and
pave pro-sl i ike speeches m the
campus center ballroom.
One of the major components
of the tenure decision process is
the letter of transmittal written
by the Arts and Sciences Dean.
Perlmutter's transmittal letter
dealing with Wagner was highly
favorable and strongly recommended that he be kept.
Writing that letter proved
"fatal" to Perlmutter, for the
Monday after it was submitted
his files were reportedly moved
from his office and he was allegedly handed a credit card and
told to take a "permanent vacation."
Needless to day, the administration overrode Perlmutter's
positive recommendation, and
fired Wagner anyway. The result
of that was some of the most
violent student demonstrations
this campus has ever seen.
Thus, the administration began
looking for a man to replace
Perlmutter, they wanted a "harliner"
someone who would
relied their own views on tenure cases. They set tied on Hunsberger.
Whether they were aware of all
lire details of Hunsberger's pasl
is not certain. Il is certain, however, thai mil everyone on the
search commtltee did. One committee member recently said
thai she did nol have "any idea"
about exactly who she was voting for since she had met Huns-

If we are to avoid our own Watergate crisis on campus, it strikes me it would 1„.
•rdvisable for President Benezet or someone else in the Administration to comment on
your startling disclosure. Specifically, students and faculty should be informed:

2 If the causes were known, how were they explained to the search committee and it.
the Board of Trustees;

3. If they were not known, what further action will the Administration take to cl,.,-,r
its own record?
The "credibility gap" dividing this Administration from students and faculty hawidened severely in recent months. Rulings made by the President and his subordinate
have been sharply questioned in the pages of the ASP and their "leadership" has h.eom,
the subject of controversial debate.
It will be highly unfortunate (if not downright suspicious) if the Administration
failed to clarify the important issues raised in your report before the ASP publish,- ,ilast edition for the year in two weeks' time. We must await the President's response Willi

A Decision Out of Division
T h e ASP editorial b o a r d is d e e p l y divided on the question of a presidential e n d o r s e m e n t in the u p c o m i n g SA elections.
O n e faction is solidly in s u p p o r t of Steve Gerber. Gcrber is a long-time
m e m b e r of Central C o u n c i l , and a r g u m e n t s in his favor claim he has often
s t o o d u p strongly for s t u d e n t rights, and that his involvement in S t u d e n t
Association has been serious and has invested him with the necessary experience t o run s t u d e n t g o v e r n m e n t .
T h e o t h e r faction is in s u p p o r t of n o - e n d o r s e m e n t . The n o - e n d o r s e m e n t
faction w o n the final vote, but the division was d e e p enough that the editorial b o a r d d e c i d e d as a whole that its editorial reflect that division rather

bcrger only briefly and knew
liltle about him.
Still lo be determined is how
si rung Vice-President Phillip
Sirotkin's views were irr influencing the final decision. And most
importantly, a lot of people are
wondering whether Hunsberger
really was brought here as a
"hatchet man."
Whatever lire case, the fact
remains thai Ihere are many
faculty members on llris campus

MAY I.I V'
In an earlier c o l u m n it was mistakenly
r e p o r t e d thai the Chairman of the Geography D e p a r t m e n t resigned 'on a c c o u n t
of Hunsberger " It was, in fact, t h e
Geology D e p a r t m e n t head who resigned.
However, t h e r e are reports that Geogr a p h y , t o o , is experiencing rather p o o r
relations with the Arts and Sciences
office. Their d e p a r t m e n t a l offices were
rather a b r u p t l y moved from the third t o
the first
floors of the main
Social
Sciences building. Their old quarters are
now o c c u p i e d by Dean Hunsberger's offices. C o m m e n t e d an irate d e p a r t m e n t
m e m b e r , "Why d i d n ' t he just take t h e
whole b u i l d i n g ? "
T h e Geology D e p a r t m e n t head, on t h e
other h a n d , left because he was "fed u p "
with the Arts and Sciences Dean, At t h e
time he s t e p p e d d o w n , he was in t h e
process of p u t t i n g together what would
have been a world r e n o w n e d team in
t e c t o n i c s . Apparently his efforts have all
gone d o w n the drain, as o t h e r sources
report that " p e o p l e are leaving left a n d
right."
T h e r e has also been word that former
associate dean •> Smiley and Wheeler left
for similar reasons
There is, i n d e e d , s o m e t h i n g r o t t e n in
the Slate U of New York at Albany
A source ui the Chemistry D e p a r t m e n t
reports thai Dr King, former C h a i r m a n ,
p r o p o s e d that Dean Hunsberger receive a
senior faculty position in that d e p a r t
meiil, giving him a j o b to fall back o n if
needed.
King c o m m i t t e d
himself
to
strongly pushing the Hunsberger a p p o i n t
m e n t , but he unfortunately could n o t
deliver Hunsberger was turned down for
the pu.sl in large pari because he had d o n e
no act ive work in Ills field since being
Chairman of the Chemistry d e p a r t m e n t at
I lu- U of Massachusetts back in l<»(>'2. T h e
Dean a p p a r e n t l y has written no research
papers during the pasl ten years, and
therefore has no credentials on which lo
be judged
That also explains why King is no
is He was reportedly eased
the g o o d s . "
T h e new c h a i r m a n , ILL. Frisch, d o e s n ' t
seem to be doing so well either. T h e r e has
been word t h a t he may very well be
replaced by a man from Cal Tech and
t h a t t h e r e is a large cash deal involved.
Sources say t h a t Hunsberger is willing t o
pay $ 1 0 0 , 0 0 0 just t o set u p the Cal Tech
candidate.;'s e x p e r i m e n t a t i o n
equipment.
What seems to b o t h e r m o s t people
a b o u t such an e x p e n s e is t h a t they think
the $ 1 0 0 , 0 0 0 could be b e t t e r used improving u n d e r g r a d u a t e teaching in the
department.
In t h e last ASP he was mistakenly
referred t o as " R i c h a r d Delia G r o t t e . " His
real n a m e is J o s e p h Delia G r o t t e and he
was a history professor at U Mass when
Hunsberger was Arts a n d Sciences Dean
there. He says t h a t h e was officially
informed, w i t h o u t reasons, t h a t his con
tract would n o t be r e n e w e d . Prior to his
dismissal he had been warned of the
possible " c o n s e q u e n c e s " which might result from his o u U p o k e n e s s .
A p p a r e n t l y , Delia G r o t t e had backed
the cause of " s t u d e n t f r e e d o m s " and had
raised "critical i d e a s , " as he called t h e m ,
in the classroom particularly in his course
on European Intellectual History. Huns
herger had called his teaching "irresponsible "
After
being dismissed
Delia
Grotte
wrote a s t a t e m e n t explaining why he had
been released, and gave it t o the U Mass
s t u d e n t n e w s p a p e r . In the s t a t e m e n t he
said that he could not u n d e r s t a n d why
the a d m i n i s t r a t i o n "feels t h r e a t e n e d by
criticism and o u U i p o k e n e s s " and, even
more significantly,
h e said that
"if
appears that good leaching n o t only does
not c o u n t , but may actually work against
you " Sound familiar''
There were the Usual petitions, meetings, and so forth all aimed at saving Delia
G r o t t e , but they failed. T h e man Hunsberger disliked was dismissed.

Davis for Veep
T h e choice for Vice-President is difficult. Barry Davis has w o r k e d long

open-mindedness
and

T h r o u g h o u t t h e recent budget hearings, Davis worked hard to defend the
rights ol individual groups against unfair budget cuts. As a m e m b e r of
Central Council and as Chairperson of Grievance C o m m i t t e e , he has never
sacrificed
personal
what he sees as the good of the University
advantage.

N o w t h a t t h e war has been over, technically, lor several m o n t h s , there is a

are m a t h e m a t i c a l l y t r u e , b u t they d o n o t
t a k e certain factors i n t o a c c o u n t . Statistics are n o t m y s t r o n g p o i n t , b u t it is true
t h a t figures can b e used tn different ways
t o p r o d u c e different results.
F o r w h a t t h e y are a t t e m p t i n g t o prove,
t h e s t u d e n t s have chosen the best m e t h o d , since even t h o u g h Snith is only a b o u t
halfway b e t w e e n t h e n o r m and t h e ext r e m e t o p , on a p e r c e n t a g e basis he ends
u p in t h e t o p 5%. If his score is placed on
a bell curve, it will be seen t h a t he does
indeed end u p a m o n g t h e highest, b u t his
point score ( 4 . 4 1 ) is a l m o s t as much
below the t o p e x t r e m e (.39) as it is above
the average f ..r>3).
Generally, an average is m o r e reliable
than a percentile when you are deal in
with data t h a t is as c r u d e as ours is,
because in the averaging the errors tend
t o cancel o n e a n o t h e r o u t . I feel, therefore, that the data we provided originally
gives a m o r e a c c u r a t e picture of S m i t h ' s
ranking a m o n g o t h e r assistant professors,
since it is based o n averages.
T h e c o n c l u s i o n s we are able to draw
from the averaging of this o n e question
are s o m e w h a t limited. We c o m p i l e d this
material at the request of Curt S m i t h , and
it is based solely on Question 19 of the
q u e s t i o n n a i r e : " C o n s i d e r i n g everything,
h o w would you rate ibis t e a c h e r ? "
In a n o t h e r s t u d y d o n e recently at the
request
of the University's
Teacher
Award C o m m i t t e e , we used four o t h e r
tjuestions as a check against q u e s t i o n 19.
T h a t is, we l o o k e d first at Question 19
and then looked at the responses t o the
o t h e r q u e s t i o n s in o r d e r to see w h e t h e r
they backed up t h e high responses to that
particular q u e s t i o n . We also tried t o lake
into a c c o u n t t h e n u m b e r s of s t u d e n t s
enrolled in particular courses, since it has
been found that s t u d e n t s in small courses
tend t o rate t h e i n s t r u c t o r higher than do
s t u d e n t s in large courses. T h e result of
this s t u d y was a list of ten teachers who
received the highest overall ratings, based
on t h e use of five different q u e s t i o n s , and
taking class size into a c c o u n t . Curt Smith
did not a p p e a r o n this list
T h e s t u d e n t s w h o m a d e the s t u d y s u b
milled to you had a n o t h e r disadvantage
They had access only t o the evaluations
of lhe Fall 1972 s e m e s t e r , since lhe other
evaluations had been s u b m i t t e d to you
(Of course, we wen- also t h r o w n off
slightly in our averaging by this fact ) My
point is, t h o u g h , that the three courses
Smith was leaching in the Fall of I97'J
were Science Fiction and Afro American
Literature
b o t h elective courses, both
highly popular subjects, with a s t u d e n t
clientele inclined t o w a r d a favorable re
a c t i o n , as o p p o s e d t o , say, a required
survey course
This is not i n t e n d e d to be a case against
Smith based on our analysis versus the
s t u d e n t s ' analysis Bui I think it dues
suggest s o m e of lhe short comings of an
analysis which puts heavy reliance on
percentiles when lhe data is relatively
unrefined, and which is based entirely on
the response to a single question.
T h e depart men! now has a c o m m i t t e e
working on the p r o b l e m of evaluation,
and hopes to c o m e up with a form which
will have m o r e .sharply tiffined questions
and will lend itself to meaningful quanti
tative analysis Until we have such an
i n s t r u m e n t , I think we s h o u l d be wary of
placing ii heavy emphasis on this kind of
data.

memorandum written by Smith and
sent to Dean Hunsberger, President
Benezet, and others.

Discovery of the
Memorandum
I was n o t allowed t o e x a m i n e m y t e n u r e
file until b o t h Dean H u n s b e r g e r and the
Council had acted negatively on m y
t e n u r e case. Mr. R o b e r t Terwilliger of
Dean Hunsberger s office e x p l a i n e d t h a t
for m e to see m y file w o u l d b e "against
p r o c e d u r e . " Later, Mr. H e n r y Mau concurred, a n d he offered t w o justifications
of this p o l i c y : (1) t o o m u c h of the
Personnel Office's t i m e w o u l d be cons u m e d if e v e r y o n e c o u l d e x a m i n e his or
her file; ( 2 ) the President m u s t receive the
file intact. (In o t h e r w o r d s , c a n d i d a t e s
might steal d o c u m e n t s from t h e file!)
Unwilling to accept this policy, I presented a plea t o Vice President Sirotkin,
w h o at firsl argued that there is a
distinction b e t w e e n a personnel/iffe and a
t e n u r e dossier
Under pressure, however,
he relented On April 9, 1973 I e x a m i n e d
my file and discovered the Stauffer Memorandum.
Critique of lhe
Memorandum
It would be laughable, if its effects had
not been so serious. 1 would never have
believed t h a t a P h . D . in English could
write so poorly a n d illogical ly. Any
Freshman C o m p o s i t i o n teacher would fail
it, on the basis of b o t h form and c o n t e n t .
For e x a m p l e , the " g r a p h " on p 1 is n o t
a graph of a n y t h i n g . Stauffer has n o t
plotted f(x) but merely given a subjective
impression of what a bell curve would
look like. Moreover, his figures ( 2 3 0
b o t t o m , 3.HH average, and 1 .HO t o p ) are
drawn from two s e p a r a t e tables, since
2.30-1.HU is the range for ail faculty, and
3.88 is the average only of assistant
professors (and the average for assistant
professors is higher than for all faculty)
His .39 and .53 are t h e r e f o r e totally
meaningless, b u t even if t h e y were mean
ingful his conclusions would be i n c o r r e c t ,
since he is measuring distance along the
bell curve rather t h a n area under it, Even
his p l a c e m e n t of I ll o n the curve is
distorted and subjective. He gives about
t h r e e limes as m u c h space for .39 as for

By Michael Lippman
I don't think I'm capable of
summing up Walking Tall in a
way that would convince people
io see it. The great things about
this film defy verbal description,
but it is one of the most important films to come along in quite
some time, and it should be seen
before it sneaks out of its unnoticed run at Cine 1234.
There have been previous
movies about tough cops who
believe in "Law and Order." The
creatures who populate the
Dirty Harry's and the French
Connections are machines, cold,
slick weapons of someone's idea
of justice. And now, here is the
true story of Sheriff Buford Pusser of McNairney County, Tennessee, a man with a conscience.
(Amazing! A movie--in 1973,
alienated, anti-heroic America
-about a man with a conscience!) And a man faithful to
his wife, devoted to his children
and parents, fiercely dedicated
to protecting the weak and exploited, a peaceful man, yet one
who will kill when necessary.
It all sounds like a Middle
American delight, and I hope
that upon hearing of the new
Law & Order film, Nixon will
place it as top priority for a
White House screening. It should
be enough to send him and his
crew running for their mediocre
former lives, safe from public
scrutiny. Because Watkinu Tall is

There will be a referendum on the following
questions concurrently with the SA elections:
It is h e r e b y p r o p o s e d that t h e following be e n a c t e d :
a film about a revolution, about
how the little people rise up
against the spoilers, those who
would corrupt and step on every
value ever known as decent, just
to cram a little more cash into
their already-bulging pockets.
Buford Pusser is their Hero, all
Seven Samurai combined into
one avenger, out to destroy
those who, with their prostitution, fixed gambling and poisoned moonshine have brought
the outside world into the paradise of his home.
It is something of an event to
see the portrayal of a man who
will say " n o " to injustice and act
upon it. The question of action
is beautifully juxtaposed with
the problem of obeying the law.
Buford represents both ends, a
man dedicated to defending the
very laws which hamper him,
fighting the men who have so
warped these laws to their own
use so as to have no respect for
their enforcement. Yet he is a
man who won't be held down, a
man who will, quite legally, install public toilets in the chambers of a crooked judge, a man
who will inform a prisoner of his
various righIs (arresled for a
brutal torture) and punch him in
the groin with each one.
This is a violent picture, but it
is also an instructive one. The
violence here is not used for
shock value, or to incite specula
lion about the nature of the
man. Walking Tall reminds us of
the practical nature of violence
as used to stop the killers by
their own methods. Such acts
are painful to watch, and we are
reminded that things are very
bad here indeed, when Buford's
nine year old son, rifle in hand,
must guard his wounded father's
hospital bed. That's where it
ends, when the ordinary citizen
waits too long for the hero to
arrive.

VOTERS- Meet the Candidates

Walking Tall"
By Kevin Daniels
Few people who have ever
graced the stage or studio can
match the quality and the sweet
ness of Paul Butterfield's vocals
and harmonica playing. Having
an amazing lung capacity (anil
being definitely the best har
monica player in the Northeast
today), "Butter" is in good form
with the hornless "Better Days "
Featured was much of their
latest album of the same name
•-"Better Days"-- consisting of
Butterfield, Ronnie Barron.
Amos Garrett, Geoff Muldar,
Chris Parker, and Billy Rich.
They were made for each other,
for as each of them complements the whole very well.
As the show progressed, we
heard from their latest album
"Buried Alive in the Blues," a
Nick Gravenites song featuring
Muldar on electric piano and
Barron on piano witli Amos Gar
rett. playing lead guitar, all quite
well. The following "Highway
28" was quite notable being in
itself biographical in nature
"Broke My Baby's Heart" gave
Ronnie Barron a chance to show
his vocal abilities on this his own
composition and it sounded
good even without the soft brass
thai i.1 on the recorded version
of this cut. "New Wulkin Blues"
showed us Butterfield on the
piano for a while with Muldar's
slide guilar complementing Gar
re Its lead guitar movements
And, actually, the most moving
of all I he pieces rendered was
the beautiful Bobby Charles
tune "Done a Lot of Wrong
Things." It really showed Butter
field's versatility on harp.
After a notably brief set. Hut
Lerfield actually came hack twice
to
the
I hunderous A r m o i y
applause, showing how well the
band was received, and the band
played three songs in the encore.
One was an excellent version o f
C.C. Rider giving ample proof
again of Butterfield's fine vocals
and the crowd joined the band
in doing the originally Nina
Sirnone, now "Better Days" arranged "Nobody's Fault But
Mine."
Besides tin- great performance
another uniquely bright but nos
lalgic note was the fact that the
.show went off fairly smoothly in
the Armory, despite a small
lapse in a spot that sent Muldar
s c r e a m i n g "Fix the damn
sound!" At one time during
"Small Town Talk" and there
was the most obviously notable
"lack of evacuation procedures
necessary" which might open
the Armory more and more to
the public for more diversified
events. All that went down was
most satisfying and totally exhilerating.

The Fifth Quarter
Kentucky Derby Set For Sat.
"by Bruce Muggin
Congratulations to WSUA in discovering thai a spring sports
season exists here at Albany by broadcasting yesterday's baseball
game. WSUA seems to think that the only seasons at Albany are
football and basketball. Maybe next year when WSUA goes AM and
FM they then can discover some of the other varsity sports such as
soccer and wrestling plus the spring season.
It was a good w e e k e n d for television sports watching with
the Knicks, Yankees, Mets and the United States Basketball team all
Secretariat Has Inside Track
winning.
The Knicks are certainly amazing the way they can seemly turn it
on and off at will. Many writers and braodcasters had written the
Knicksoff after losing their homecourt advantage Friday, but the
Knicks showed their great poise by easily heating Boston in the
seventh game. I was most impressed with Dean Meminger. Dean "the
Dream" proved you don't have to have a great shot to stay in the
NBA. Dean's tough defense made Jo Jo White's afternoon most
miserable.
Knicks on Channel 17
The Knicks are on to LA, which is no easy series. New York will
need a strong series out of Willis Reed to counteract the rebounding
of Wilt Chamberlin. I don't know why ABC is not televising tonight*
opening game. However, WMHT-TV Channel 1 7 will be televising the
game.
The United States Basketball team got some kind of revenue when

Who says people are apathetic at Albany
horse race with Secretariat and
Sham drawing away from the
field. The pick here is Secretariat, but one must always be
aware of racing luck. Anything
can happen in a race with a large
number of starters, as witnessed
by Cannonero II's incredible win
in the Kentucky Derby two
years ago. Cannonero II paid
$59 at OTB that year, but if
Secretariat wins the Derby this
year he will probably pay somewhere around four or five
dollars.
So find your local OTB office
(there are a couple in Schenectady) or your friendly bookie,
wager your money, then on Saturday sit down around dinner
time in front of your T.V. set
and see this great race. And
when Secretariat finishes first,

Yes racing fans, the Kentucky
Derby will be run this Saturday,
May 5th at Churchill Downs in
Kentucky. This one-and-a- quarter
mile race for three year old colts
and fillies is the first leg of horse
racing's "triple crown," with the
other two races being the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes.
This year the Derby features a
probable field of fifteen and a
purse of about $125,000. However, the 99th consecutive "Run
for the Roses" has basically become a two horse race between
well-known Secretariat and highly regarded Sham.

Tracksters Triumph Again; Stand 12-0
by John Koch
For a team member, it was
tiring and disheartening. For
Coach Munsey, it was a nightmare. No, the track team did not
l o s e . They defeated Stony
Brook, Binghamton, and U. of
Buffalo in Saturday's meet. But
it was the end of a very long and
tiring week of competition.
Slightly fatigued from spending the spring break in Albany,
the tracksters traveled to Plattsburgh Wednesday, easily winning
a triangular meet. To add to the
long afternoon and evening
rides, the team bus broke down
due to a lack of water in the
engine.
Saturday the Danes left at
8:00 to take a 'short' day hop to
Binghamton (I consider it to be
a long trek when the importance
of the contest is taken into
account). And, as fate would
have it, the bus broke down
again. As a result, the team
arrived only twenty minutes
before the start of the meet.
Even the weather would not
cooperate. It was a cold and
rainy day at Harpur and these
factors led to the poorest Dane
performance of the season.
The Munseymen did finish the
day on the winning end of a
73-51^-34-17^ srore in the
'University Center' quadrangular
meet. Stony Brook finished
second and host Binghamton
was third. Team depth was again

Albany's five first places were

sistent members. The mile relay
quartet
(Tim Bilash, Rich
Hower, Tom Crowley, and Sal
Rodriguez) won their specialty
with a 3:29 clocking. Rudy Vido
set a track record in the shot put
with a toss of 51'1/4". High
jumper Bob Malone, who is
having a fine season, led his
event with a 6'2" leap. Distance
ace Jim Shrader broke his own
team record and the track record
in the three mile run with a time
of 14:13.
The fifth Dane win came from
John Streeter, who won the
intermediate hurdles. 'Streetcar'
also finished a close second in
the triple jump, and as a result
was given the team's 'fickle
feather' as the best Dane performer.
Sprinter Cliff McCarg had a
tough day, taking second in both
dashes to a Stony Brook runner,

pressure is at its peak this week.
This afternoon at 3 PM, the
Dunes host Williams College in
the final dual meet of the
season. As strange as it may
seem, the State tracksters are the
underdogs in this contest.
Williams 1ms a very tough squad
and the Dunes are still hurting,
mentally and physically, from
the last three weeks of a grueling
schedule.
Friday morning the squad
leaves for Fredonia, the sight of
the SUNY conference championship. The eleven team field may
find it tough dethroning Cortland, the 1972 winners. Brockp o r t is favored with the
defending champs. Oneonta and
Albany have the only remote
chances of upsetting the two
phys. ed. schools.
The team schedule after the
conference meet has not been
finalized. The Athletic Advisory
Board has granted the team
monies to attend the Upstate
New York Track Championships, to be held at R.I.T. on
May 12. A decision will be
reached early next week as to
the number of Albany entries.
Individuals who qualify for the
IC4A (Rutgers University), and
National (Wabash College) Track
Championships have also been
voted funds for these contests.
At the present time, three men
have qualified for these meets.
Rudy Vido has qualified in the
shot put with his 52'7" toss. In
the 100, Cliff McCarg has met
that standard with his 9,7
second time. Three miier Jim
Shrader has broken the U : 20
qualifying mark three times this
season.

man's scholarship was considered deficient by the department, his teaching only "competent," and his University service questionable.
In his letter to Associate Dean
of Arts and Sciences, Paul
Wheeler, Kendall note
that,
" M r . Goodman's book, A
Western Panorama: The Trauels,
Writings, and Influence of J.
Ross Browne...is a basically
immature study of a figure who
is of secondary importance in
American History." He adds that
it is not a "significant work of
scholarship."
This harsh treatment of Goodman's topic and the work itself
was refuted by many nationally
known historians. Howard
Lamas, the Chairman of the History Department at Yale University considers Ross Browne of
considerable significance, J.
Golden Taylor, the editor of
Western American Literature, reviewing Goodman's book, states,
"The present work is really
somewhat overdue, for although
the career and writing of J. Ross
Browne provide some of the
Page 19
most authentic revelations of
major aspects of life in the West
during the turbulent quarter century following the Gold Rush,
his significance has not before
been fully assessed." Several
prestigious Western scholars do
not agree with the letter forwarded by Kendall. Also in this
transmittal, Kendall wrote there
was a question about Goodman's
c o m p e t e n c e as a graduate
teacher. This is based on only
one graduate course taught by
Dr. Goodman, and when student
evaluations were elicited, they
were overwhelmingly positive.
In regards to Dr. Goodman's
other book, Arizona Odyssey,
Dr. Kendall notes it is a good
volume of bibliography, but it is
not a work of historical inquiry.
Again, notable historians refute
this, among them Paul Buck of
Harvard, who feels bibliography
is a valuable tool and proper
venture for an historian. Sidney
B. Brinckerhoff of the Arizona's
Pioneer's Historical Society calls
Arizona Odyssey "an essential
volume, not only for libraries
