The overcrowding in the
university dormitories has
been reduced from the crisis
level, but not eliminated
altogether.
The atudents
who atarted the year in
lounges and other temporary
housing have all moved or
are moving into regular
rooms.
About 300 new
students remain in triples.
This is the first year since
1969 that the dorms have
been overcrowded. At the
opening of school last year,

Campus security is changing. The old "campus rent-acop" image of the retired,
benevolent men who give out
parking tickets by day and
lock up buildings at night is
being gradually replaced
with a new image, in which
the professional, alert and
stable characteristics of the
c a m p u s police forces is
stressed. It is all part of a
s t a t e - w i d e p r o g r a m of
professionalization, aimed
at combatting a crime surge
which has reached major
proportions on some SUNY
campuses.
Professionalization has
meant that on many campuses security units are now
hardly distinguishable from
regular community police,
and in some instances the
name lias been changed from
"campus security" to "campus police" to reflect this.
They are em powered to make
arrests. They can use search
warrants.
They have
purchased sophisticated new
equipment and added more
men.
Hut by far the most controversial development is
that campus security forces
are now allowed to use
handguns. Under guidelines
recently passed by the SUNY
Trustees at the urging of
Chancellor Ernest Boyer. the
decision to arm local cam
pus security forces now rusts
with the president of each
local college.
At SUNY
Albany and SUC Cortland
such approval has already
been granted, and it is expected to be given at additional campuses in the
near future.
The security officers want
guns in order to orotect
themselves, as well as the

complain ol being helpless

with some of the crimes now
being committed on college

Assistant Directors. Security Investigators and Supervisors are all authorized to
carry weapons, and security
director J a m e s Williams
confirms that these men
"often do carry weapons on
night time patrols." Arming
during daylight hours is infrequent but the weapons are
available if needed.
Williams feels that the inatecalls "improper training, crease in armed robberies

Our campus security men may be operating under
the delusion that they are "peace officers" empowered
to make arrests and carry handguns.
That was the startling conclusion drawn from an investigation headed by Student Association President
Steve Gerber this week. At a press conference held
yesterday afternoon. Gerber stated that SUNY Centra] is working under the mistaken belief that security
men are technically "peace officers."
According to Gerber. "peace officers" are required
to undergo an intensive eight week training session
sponsored by the Municipal Police Training Council,
and that of the eleven "peace officers" empowered to
carry guns at SUNYA. seme may have taken only a
lour week course, and are not legally entitled to exercise the full privileges of a "peace officer. Those
privileges include currying guns and making arrests.

Suggestion to SPAC
by Kevin Daniels
Again this year as the
summer comes to an end,
Saratoga Performing Arts
officials are considering the
future of the special event at
the complex with final decision on next year supposedly
to come soon. But S.P.A.C. officials announcements are,
as always in the past, confusing. Even though the
attendance to a record 80,000
(Benny Goodman drew 9,000
himself) people, it is extremely well known that the
special events, such as the
Allman Borthers, B.B. King,
and Weather Report, The
Temptations, Pink Floyd and
last week's SantanaMahavishnu fusion aare
what is responsible for keeping the whole S.P.A.C.
season from being a tremendous financial failure. But
due to local pressures by
SPAC area residents, poor
security precautions, and the
selling of too many lawn
tickets the concerts may
have to find a new way into
the area. Is it not strange that
the
arts
center's
businessmen could allow the
ballet and orchestra, a poor
financial risk, to continue at
a loss and then make the announcements that they have
about the special events
future.
A perfect example of the
total blame being mostly on
the performing arts people is
the Allman Brothers concert
of this last summer. A crowd
totalling about 28,000 was in
attendance and soon before
the Brothers were to come on
stage the usual mob of people
from the lawn, wanting to
fight the price scale and be
able to see the act, were
allowed to stampede their
way down the aisles pushing
and shoving their way past
the customers seated in

Charles
Chaplin's
satiric view of Adolph
Hitler, The Great Dictator
will be shown Sunday,
September 9 in LC 18 by
Albany State Cinema.
With the world conditions deteriorating in
the late 1930's, Chaplin
turned to political satire
for his first dialogue film.
Many had pointed out the
similarities
in
appearance
between
H i t l e r and Chaplin's
tramp character, and so
produced The Great Dictator as an indictment of
the t y r a n n i e s of that
clangorous and rather
ridiculous world leader.
In later years, Chaplin
stated that TheGreat Dictator would not have been
made had he known the
full horrors of the Nazi
regime; but, it must be
r e m e m b e r e d that the
production began on the
film before the outbreak of
the Second World War,
and there w a s a great deal
of protest over its production from those who still
f e l t H i t l e r c o u l d be
appeased. The German
consulate sent a representative to Chaplin's studio
to insist that Chaplin halt
production.
Chaplin
threw
the German
representative off the set.
The Great Dictator proved to be one of Chaplin's
most popular features.
Chaplin's rantings as
Adenoid Hynkel brought
the newsreels and radio
speeches of Hitler into
their true perspective.

(middle aged ushers) were
not adequate in handling the
mass hysteria and in result
the fire marshall was forced
not to allow the concert to
start until these people moved back. The road manager of
the Brothers had the chore of
literally begging the crowd
to move back a little, to no
avail and the Brothers stayed
in the dressing room wanting to play. After no success
and thousands of dollars being at stake for SPAC and the
Brothers, everybody concerned crossed fingers and
prayed no one would get
hurt. After their first set an

Manhattan Revisited
Overcrowdhg^gnn
by Roxanne Reisch
Increased freshman and transfer-student
enrollment this semester means many new
faces on the Albany campus; faces unfamiliar with the atmosphere and crises of
our community and indeed, a problem in
themselves.
The overcrowding on this campus in

you are one of those fortunate students

or a freshman in a tripled-up room barely
adequate for two. The first week of school

flagrooms, long waits at this office and that,
people crammed in sweltering classrooms.
These hassles are by no mean unique to this
time and place, but do necessitate immediate
concern and evaluation.

Impeachment (and why we shouldn ft)
by Mitch F r o s t
The one lesson we learn from
history is that we learn no lessons
from history and, with the soc a l l e d "Watergate Committee"
now in recess, probably the only
conclusion we can safely come to
after the many long m o n t h s of intensive testimony is that we can
come to no conclusions safely. It's
still too early to pin down any
specific c h a r g e s of wrongdoing on
any of Mr. Nixon's top aides or
former aides, much less Mr. Nixon
himself, yet, not too s u r p r i s i n g l y
there are those a m o n g us who,
despite all the present confusion
over the facts, are s u r e of one
thing: Mr. Nixon should be impeached.
No doubt the call for impeachment at this early date s t e m s more
from a deep personal resentment
on the part of his critics over Mr.
N i x o n ' s policies than a genuine
concern for our g o v e r n m e n t ' s
political s u r v i v a l .
Those who
want now to impeach Mr. Nixon
wanted in'72 and '68 to defeat him
at the polls and, failing that, tried
t h r o u g h o u t his term to destroy his
effectiveness. The current tirade,
then, is but another c h a p t e r in the
long war between Hichard Nixon
and his enemies. Those who demand his removal by impeachment seek only his removal. How
it is done is, to many of his critics
and enemies, secondary.
B u t to c a l l now for the
President's impeachment is both
foolish and dangerous for impeachment carries with it certain
inherent dangers that the imp e a c h m e n t l o b b y s e e m s unconcerned about. No American
President has ever been impeached with the exception of Andrew
J o h n s o n and historians now

I
generally agree that even his was
the result more of unfair personal
antagonism than a n y t h i n g else.
This should indicate, from an
historical perspective at least,that
impeachment holds a perilous and
at most a precarious place in our
system of checks and balances.
And this is as it should be for no
other constitutionally-sanctioned
political event takjs us down so

ridden
a
road
as
does the impeachment of a President. It is l i k e e n t e r i n g a m a z e . We
can only enter the process blindly
and with no precedents and few
s i g n s to guide us we rely as much
on prayer and luck as on the
t e c h n i c i a n ' s s k i l l to see us
through.
I m p e a c h m e n t is
probably the most revolutionary
and therefore the m o s t unwieldy
and l e a s t w o r k a b l e solution
provided by our Constitution. It is
the s w a s h b u c k l i n g dare-devil's
a p p r o a c h to politics and this is
why it has been utilized only once,
more than a century ago.
Yet at the s a m e time it isprecise1y
its
revolutionary
c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s that give it, for
s o m e at least, its appeal. It whets
our appetite for the flambuoyant
and the bizarre. Our thirst for an
e x c i t i n g and
monumental
historical upset would well be
satisfied if we could, in our
lifetime, impeach a president.
And, heavenknows, Richard Nixon has given us many a good excuse.
But
such
impassioned
enthusiasms are the breeding
ground of disaster and a sober
reflection on both the costs and
benefits of such a move should
cause even the most outraged
among us to hesitate before taking
us blindly into that jungle.
What it boils down to is a question ol
priorities. Money must be made, yes, and
contracts must be fulfilled, but what does
this institution exist for? The concern for
quality education and the maintenance of an
atmosphere conducive to it seem all-butforgotten in attempts to make ends meet and
mass-produce college graduates.
While we recognize the attempts being
made by University personnel to deal with
the immediate overcrowding crisis confronting us, we express extreme concern over th
perennial trend to tax our resources to the
limit and beyond, at the expense of our very
reason for being here.

It's a special year for Albany,
as the Danes embark on their
first year of varsity football after
throe years at the club level.
Ford feels that "this is the
strongest team ever." However.
Ford cautions to add that "We are
no longor playing teams like
Pace any more." Among the new
opponents will bo Nichols,
Curry and crosstown rival RPI.
The problem facing the Dane
football squad as well as other
Albany teams is the ability to
compete with other schools on
and off the field. One hundred
and fifty-six players originally
went out for the football team but
30 men had to be cut after the first
workouts due to lack of equipment and locker facilities. Ford
and Murphy are quite capable
coaches but the team is competing against schools with six
full time coaches. The rest of
Albany's staff consists of part
time personnel and like every
other year the staff is new to the
school. Recruitment is still a
problem.
determined than ever. Vying for
the other halfback position are
freshmen George Hollie and
Orin Griffin. Both are excellent
prospects and both possess good
speed. Griffin runs the hundred
in 9.8. Tom Deblois has the inside for the fullback position.
Last year's starting tight end
Ed Perka has been forced to give
up football because of a back injury. Luckily for Ford. Bill
Adams is on hand to fill the position. Adams, a transfer student

lineman last year, while backing

When Bertuzzi did put the ball
into the air last year, his favorite
receiver was split end Bob Baxter. Baxter is stronger, bigger
and faster than last year and
could have a big year. He is
being pressed by trackman Cliff
McCard.
McCard h a s no
previous experience but his 9.7
speed could be a key asset.
The offensive line is a

After Ten Month Wait
by Bruce Maggln
It should, however, be an exciting first year for Albany, as
Coach Ford has developed some
excellent talent. The defense
should be better than last year's
superb squad with ten starters
returning and plenty of depth to
back the starters up. The defensive line is solid with Rudy Vido,
Vinnie Pierce, Frank Leader.
Ron G ardner, Jim " T i n y "
Holloway, Frank Villanova and
Dom Pagano all sure to put plenty of pressure on opposing
quarterbacks.
The linebacking situation is
strong with the return of Ken
Schoen and Don Mion.. Herm
Springer takes over in the secondary with the graduation of John
Johnson. Joining Springer will
be captain Arnie Will, Tim
Myers, Jeff O'DonnolLand Bruce
Cummings.
Offensively, the team has been
hurt through graduation, injury
and other personal roasons.
S o p h o m o r e J o h n Bertuzzi
