Gridders Roll Again; Demolish Cards 49-8
by Don Ncmclk
and Joyce R. Btlta
Obviously the cliche "Ford has a
better idea" holds some truth as
Albany State combined that
triumphant balanced attack that has
thus far provided an undefeated
season and a chance at the much
deserved recognition in the college
football! world at Plattsburgh,
Saturday, as they overwhelmed the
Cardinals by u score of 49-8.
It was a game that saw seven
Albany State touchdowns and a
flawless day for Al Martin providing
the extra points. The Albany offense
was sparked by Glenn Sowalskie,
who totaled 164 yards in 16 carries
for three Great Dane scores. The
team rushed for 370 yards, including
Marvin Perry's 63 yard sin only three
carries. His big gain came on a 35
yard carry on a pitch from Bertuzzi
that put Albany on the board in the
first quarter.
Albany added another seven in the
second quarter with Sowalskie's
two-yard plunge.
After the defense held off
Plattsburgh's Jim Fraser and Ver-
non Blue, it raided Joe Garcia's position behind a line that could not contain Rudy Vido, Frank Villanova
and Tim Myers or keep them from
terrorizing the Cardinal offense.
Albany's defense was headed up
by Don M ion who picked off two
passes and gathered in another fumble. Albany managed to obtain
seven Plattsburgh turnovers.
The second half saw'quarterback
John Bertuzzi riflea five yard pass to
halfback Marvin Perry for a
touchdown. Later on a third down
and one from the three yard line,
Bertuzzi spotted Glenn Sowalskie in
the end zone for the fourth tally.
With the game in hand, Dave
Ahonen was put in to call signals for
Albany and he put together a 34yurd strike to end Don Whitely.
Then, Plattsburgh's offense accomplished theironeand only score.
With the ball on the 23-yard line,
Garcia unloaded a bullet to Huck
Finn for the touchdown (Mark
Twain couldn't have made a better
play). On an almost instant replay,
they added a 2-point passing conversion. Then it was Sowalskie's speed

this manner, "After the snap, the
defense must cover the quarterback,
the fullback, a possible pitch or
hand-off, or a quick pump to the
split end."
That leaves four
possibilities, three inside and one
wide, which can be utilized offensively by a cut play or a counter play.

For perhaps the first time this season, Ithaca College football Coach
Jim Butterfield has admitted he is looking ahead.
The future for Butterfield and his team, which buried Rochester Tech
Saturday to finish 9-0, is an invitation to a bowl game—an invitation sure to
come after the Bombers enhanced their status as the No. I small college team
in the East.
"1 don't think it's going to sink in for some time," Butterfield said after his
team's 68-17 cakewalk at Rochester. It was his first unbeaten team.
Invitations will be extended Nov. 19 to two Eastern teams to compete in
the Knute Rocknc Bowl on Nov. 30. The winner of that bowl meets a
Midwest small college team the following Saturday in the Amos Alonzo
Stagg Howl in Phcnix City, Ala.
Ithaca players have the week off before resuming practice. "I told them to
relax and get their minds off football," Butterfield said.
Meanwhile, their coach will be out recruiting for the 1975 Bomber team.
"Recruiting, of course, is the name of the game," he said. "You'd better think
ahead or you're going to sink."
In other games Saturday, two top New York State teams completed their
seasons with wide victory margins. Hobart finished 8-1 by defeating
Brockport State, 41-6. And St. Lawrence, 7-2, outclassed Rensselaer

Saturday was a day of individual as well as team accomplishment for
Ithaca, which breezed through a strong schedule to its first perfect season in
nine years.
Senior fullback Duvc Rcmick rushed for 102 yards and thereby became the
first Ithaca player to reach the 1,000-yard rushing plateau. He had 1,010 on
the season.

the damage was done and that was

"One thing thai everyone was glad

Chris Burns crossed 39th out of

Their words summed up the reaction among the average Palestinian in

mission" to the United Nations had vaulted him to new heights of acclaim
and prestige among Palestinians and the Arab masses alike.
Arab news media were nearly unanimous, in their delirious praise of

He stressed the economic themes in an address to the National Association

"Inflation will be cooled," he told the real estate agents, admitting at the

ALBANY STUDENT PRESS
NOVEMBER IS, 1974
• (AP)—The State Univeristy of
New York, which former Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller built into the
largest university in the nation, is under attack for overexpansion,
The state Board of Regents,
governing body of education in New
York, has ordered a cut-back in one
ambitious project to expand a
college campus, and critics are
demanding further reductions.
The Regents are showing signs of
responding to projections of a
decline in the college-age population
over the next 15 years. College
enrollment in the state could drop by
more than 20 per cent in that period,
the Regents say.
The boom years are over. The
period of retrenchment has begun.
And New York is not alone. Other
states arc feeling similar pressures of
shrinking enrollments, overbuilt
educational systems and closing institutions.
The University of Texas trimmed
plans to add lo its Austin campus.
The cutbacks were not enough to
satisfy lawmakers, who cited the
problems such private institutions as
Baylor University have encountered
'in filling classrooms.
Dorm Plans Abandoned
The new Riverside campus of the
University of California attracted
less than a third of the 15,000
students who were expected. The university abandoned plans to build
more dormitories.
The College in Sarasota, Fla.,
opened as an independent college in
I960 with great expectations. But the
University of Florida system absorbed the college recently.
Several state legislators in
Wisconsin suggested the closing of
some of the stale's public colleges
where the enrollments are low. Empty dormitory rooms at the University
of Wisconsin c a m p u s e s in
Milwaukee and Madison are being
converted into classrooms and university offices.
Paradoxically, some colleges
across the country need more dormitory space—not because of a great
increase in enrollment, but because
students are finding it loo expensive
to live off-campus. "Last year," sighed Chancellor Ernest L. Boycrof the
State University of New York, "you
couldn't keep the kids in the dorms.
Now you can't keep them out."
The University of Iowa offered to
rent rooms at a nearby tuberculosis
hospital. The University of Missouri
leased part of a motel.
Troubles All Over
Private institutions as a group
have shown a decline in enrollments

for several years. The enrollment at
public institutions across the nation
grew by a modest 3 per cent this fall,
but there were a few soft spots.
The National Association of State
Universities in Washington reported
that four institutions had declines of
more than 500 students—the University of Illinois at Chicago Circle,
Southern Illinois University, the University of Arkansas at Faycttevillc
and the Univeristy of Washington.
The problems perhaps arc most
dramatic in New York. The state has
two huge public college system—the
State University of New York, which
serves areas outside New York City,
and the City University of New
York -and more than 100 private
colleges and universities. It's no accident that the private univcrsitiesand
colleges of New York are known as
the "PUNY" system.
White House Official
Opposes Pot Penalties
by Michael Putzel
(A P) The top White House official on drug policy is about to announce opposition to criminal penalties for marijuana use, informed administration officials said Thursday.
I'he sources said the official, Dr. Robert L. DuPont, will continue to advocate public programs that discourage use of the drug but will argue that
"people shouldn't be put through the criminal process for possession" of
small quantities of marijuana.
DuPont is director of the White House Special Action Office for Drug
Abuse Prevention and head of the National Institute on Drug Abuse. He is to
address the annual conference here Friday of the National Organization for
Reform of Marijuana Laws-NORML.
The sources said DuPont, in his speech and in appearances next week at a
news conference and before the Senate, will issue "a very carefully balanced
statement" that explains his position on the legal issues while at the same time
discussing new medical evidence that indicates long-term use of marijuana
can be dangerous.
The sources characterized the speech as "the beginning of a process" intended to divorce the Ford administration from former President Richard
M. Nixon's refusal to consider reforming marijuana laws.
"There are no plans now to recommend legislation in this area," the
sources said, but they indicated that is the direction DuPont hopes the issue
will lake.
President Ford in the past has opposed outright legalization of marijuana
bin has indicated he has an open mind on the issue of removing legal penalties
against users.
,
Sources at the White House indicated l-'ord is a ware of what DuPont plans
to say, hut they didn't expect Ford to have any comment on the issue immediately.

The Young Giant
The State University is the largest
in the United States with a full-time
undergraduate enrollment of 230,000 students at four university
centers, 28 colleges and 38 community colleges. It also is the youngest
state system. Because of the presence
of a large number ol private colleges.
New York did not get around to
founding a state university until
1948.
It remained a small network of
teachers' college until Rockefeller
was elected governor. In the
Rockefeller administrations of the

Forer Defends his Reign in Soc Dep't
by Nancy Albaugh
Seated behind his desk that was slacked with reports
and papers, Ray Forer spoke of his chairmanship in the
Sociology department — a position thai may now be in I
jeopardy.
Forer said that he knows some people oppose ins
methods, that some people in the department "hale me,"
but he said he thinks he has given the university good service. "Although I may not have been right in all 1 have
done. I think that 1 have improved the department, Some
people don't like the changes, but I think they arc worth
it."
Asked specifically what these changes were, he cited
the "small groups lab" -a specially modified room on the
sixth lloor of Mohawk tower, a flight above his office,
that will be used for studying small group behavior. The
problem is that Beth Hanna, who was originally
scheduled to teach two of the courses utilizing the lab,
will not be able lo teach the courses. "I've called all over
the country trying to find a subslilute. We have had
some luck in finding someone from the Psychology
department to take over one of the courses. But, we're
still looking."
Some tenured members of the department say Forer
has placed "slanderous documents" in confidential files
used for tenure review. The chairman says, "That was in
my early days. Perhaps I was a little too strong. Bul 1
made my mistakes early. I say things a little too straight
for Sirotkin, for Kendall even . . . but I still stand behind
the substance of everything I write." Forer points out
thai in one ease, he did put an apology in one faculty
member's file for a statement he had made. "I think my
wording was u bit too strong, but then I was a feature
writer once, you understand."
In answer lo the question ol his role in the department,
he said."I think I am the symbol of what a good department should be."
Seeing himself as the instrument of departmental
change, he said, "I was a journalist for fifteen years
myself, ytiu know. Some of the new developments in
Sociology of course I cannot keep up with. I don't know
how to work that lah upstairs. But I like to think that I
will leave behind a department that your children will be
proud to attend."
Staling that lite budget money for the department "got
short," Forer said he feels that the "mediocrity in the
department has been deluged. The only thing I would
say is that we still need a few good senior people - so me of
national repute. Hopefully we will he able to get some
soon...But, you know, I can't play Ciod."
Forer said also that he has asked that an external
review of live department be done. "We have reached the
stale where we can subject ourselves to review as a
professional department. I have worked for the students getting money for studies, grunts. That is my main
emphasis."
He thinks that it is his style that causes some of the
department members their dissatisfaction.
"1 am
sometimes a little hard, but I think there is a difference in
administrative styles between different people, you
know."
Concluding, he said, "I think anyone has the right to
call me a fool, hut I am not sure anyone can say I am at
fault."

Women's Group Organized to Battle Rap

The living room was warm and

"We art attempting to insure that

deputy director of the state
Emergency Fuel Office.
" He said thejob may be a tough one
since tome independent operators
may. not want to sen during the
nationwide United Mine Workers
strike.
"I think the small independents
will close down in sympathy rather

striking miners," Edwards explained
in a telephone interview Tuesday.
"Where you've got small operators,
you know they're not going to take a
chance on anyone getting hurt."
Officials aid 21 state facilities depend on coal.
Although major utility companies
and many of the state's SS coaldependent industries have coal
stockpiles, the state has no "set-aside" program in which a reserve
supply is doled out by the state.
Edwards said, that if the state is
able to buy from independent
miners, costs will be higher than they
have.been.
Coal Twenty More A Barrel
"The independents will take advantage and the price will go up," he
said. "We checked with one of the independent operators and they
quoted a price now of $20 above the
going rate for coal." Edwards said
attempts were also being, made to
convince the U M W leadership to sell
stockpiles for emergency services.
Meanwhile, a spokesman for the
New YonkPower Pool said that even
a lcngthyolrike would not affect the
state's electrical generating capability.
"We don't envision any coal strike
to have any effect on the generation
of electricity or the reliability of electrical services,',' Bryan Gosling said.
Hesaid only 12 perccntofthcslate's
electrical generating capacity requires coal as the primary energy
source. And he noted that inventory
coal supplies at most station sites
"are generally in excess ofSOdays."
The Niagara Mohawk Power

Imperial Presidencies Plague Nation, Says Author
by Ira Zimmerman
Pulitzer Prize winner David
Halberstam told an audience of 350
that the nation is plagued by
governmental imbalance at the
Federal level and a lack of control of
its science and technology. The 40
year old author of the best selling
study of political power in America,
77ie Best ami the Brightest, also
declared that the Democratic
landslide in last week's elections did
not amount to a" mandate.
Halberstam's appearance Monday
night was part of a busy schedule of
programs sponsored by the University Speakers Forum and supported
by student tax revenues.
Dressed conservatively with u
light blue shirt, dark tic, und solid
navy bluejacket, the six footer who
ran track at Roosevelt High School
in Yonkcrs projected an image of
low key confidence. In un atmosphere shaped by extinguished
ballroom house lights and blazing
spotlights, the greying Halberstam
spoke informally of "diffused"
Watergates, "imperial" presidencies
and "uncontrolled" technology.
Democratic Victory A Republican
Punishment
Halberstam, educated at Harvard,
stated that the Democrats had failed
to bring a past record and future
program dealing with Watergate and
the economy to the public. "There
was no clear choice, nothing to exhort the people to the polls," commented the journalist. He believes
that an uninspired electorate merely
punished a law and order administration for its lawlessness and
found throughout the Pentagon
Papers.
Moving into the subject matter of
The Best and the Brightest,
H a l b e r s t a m attacked former
Defense Secretary Robert MacNamara as the "poet laureate of the
Ford Company." He thundered that
those who were responsible for the
Southeast Asian War "have yet to be
accountable for what they did in
Vietnam."
A Third Party: The White House
He continued by claiming that the
erosion of the political system has
been accompanied by the growth of
a " t h r e e party system: the
Democrats, the Republicans, and
the White House." The shift in the
delegation of power in the last 20 to
30 years has witnessed an usurpation
of State Department functions by
the C.l.A. so more and more information could be classified and kept
from the public.
Halberstam asserted that by the
early 1%0's the C.l.A. had already
determined that it would take "seven David Halberstam, author of "The Beat and the Brightest" spoke

A Dan Political Future
Projecting into the political
future, Halberstam forsees a worsening economy which will "tarnish" the
Democratic majority in Congress
and aid a presidential bid by Gerald
Ford in 1976.
The political commentator
remarked that we were lucky to have
Richard Nixon as President, for
Nixon warned us of a great imbalance of power. "We have created
a super presidency ... a presidency
characterized by a lack of restraint."
He maintained that a long bred
"myth of presidential omniscience"

U.S. to invoke "presidential
privilege" and hide the truth from
the public in the name of "national
security." lnaddition, hcargucd that

empowered several presidents to
fight oil domestic opponents. Congress was unable to stop or question
the growth of the executive branch.
Nor was it expanding to meet the
needs imposed by a new and complex technology. Only now is Congress "modernizing," according to
Halberstam.
As a journalist since 1955,
Halberstam senses what he terms a
"moral desensitizing" in our
governmental processes which
makes it routine for a Hunt and a
Liddy to break into the opposition
party's national headquarters. Even

State University ol Naw York at Albany
I Noble Goals ,
|
The College Student
The New York Stale Board of Regents has acted with* surprising "forethought" and
"eonsideration."Basing its decision o n reports that the enrollment over the next fifteen
years will be decreasing at the State University system, it has definitively drowned a
.1(«eries of programs designed t o add t o those already existing at a number of SUNY
schools. These programs, for the most part, were construction-oriented, deisgned to
i relieve the over-crowding at many Universities and Colleges. Chancellor Boyer was
reported as having said that last year there was no way to keep students on campus in
the dormatories, while this year, due to the inflated cost of living off-campus, it is impossible to keep them away.
It is a wonder then that the Regents sees the necessity to curtail programs to relieve
the over-crowding and perhaps even improve academic services on some campuses.
Yesterday, it was reported that SUN Y enrollment climbed to 406,000 students of which
over 250,000 were full time equivalents. Thattotal is an increase from 384,000 last year.
The boom years of the S U N Y system may be over, but now certainly is not the time to
d o o m the hopes.of students, faculty, and administrations who had looked to the
programs as panaceas in the fight against the encroaching over-crowding.
The Regents have decreed that until the population decline catches up to the college
age population, students for the next fifteen years will have to suffer the inconvenience
now for the betterment of the future. Noble goals, but ill-timed. It is a pity to condemn
an essentially benevolent gesture on the part of the Regents, especially one that doesn't
have a built-in obsolecence factor, but the Regents had better give the thought of a
blanket freeze on expansion some serious reconsideration before imposing it on the
coming generations of students.
Defeating the Purpose
In theera of Watergate it may be hard to pat ourselves on the back, but careful observation of other would indicate that we're far from the worst. We are fortunate, in a
sense, to have the United Nations on our shores so we can see the world's "diplomats"
engaged in vicious polemics.fiercelyexpounding their various issues, while making an
all too futile effort at talking sense. Not that the U.N. is useless entirely, but its success
ratio leaves much to be desired.
A recent example of the common pointless U.N. rhetoric was the suspension of
South Africa from this session of the General Assembly. There is no doubt that South
Africa's system of apartheid is blatantly unfair, exploitative and disgusting. Under intense, pressure from the entire world (and from blacks and whites within the country)
South .Africa has made some significant if small steps towards ending their absurd
domestic policies.
But there is also n o doubt that at least the ruling white minority is being ruled
democratically, and that many of the countries that pushed most strongly for South
Africa's suspension are simple totalitarian dictatorships, where no one but the country's leader and the rich elite class have power.
In the Security Council a few weeks ago, the United States, Britain and France
properly blockedthe complete expulsion of South Africa. Whatever the actual reason
for the three vetoes, they are in line with a rational view of what the U.N. is supposed to
represent: the powers that be. Countries that do not truly represent their people could
not be forced out of the U.N. simply because there are only a handful of countries that
can make that claim. Countries like Nigeria, the U.S. and', Pakistan might be excluded, but why stop there? Uganda's General ldi Amin has been accused of murdering immigrant Asians; surely he has seized their property and kicked thousands out of their
home of centuries. The Soviet Union imprisons with impunity, Spain continues to oppress the Basques, Greece only recently has turned away from militarism, Iraq oppresses the tribal Kurds and South Vietnam, well, much has already been written of
that catastrophe.
South Africa deserves censure, and pressure, but as long as people are controlled
there, they should be in the U.N. Otherwise, we must start reviewingevery nation in the
international order.
Suspension or expulsion defeats the purpose it pretends to serve.

7HE PRESIDENT SAlP Tt&MYS ECONOMY POES
THE CLASSIC PBFINITTON OF A HBCESSION'
In Washington:
The 1974 Election Message
WASHINGTON - Of last week's midterm elections it could honestly be said that
never in the course of television history has so
much been made by so many of so little.
Why, to hear the network executives tell it,
the whole course of the ship was about to be
altered as never before by this one trip to the
pilot house.
Of course, all that was balderdash of the
variety for which television executives have
become famous. They are your original
balderdashers, paralleled in American history
only by the 19th century travelling medicine
men.
The plain fact is that there was nothing unusual about the size or character of last
Tuesday's Democratic congressional gains.
The party which is looking into rather than
out of the windows at 1600 Pennsylvania
Avenue generally makes inroads in off-year
elections, and when that party happens to be
.three times \ the size of its opposition to start
with, those in roads often arc large.
Still, the times are bit strange. Here we are
the democracy of democracies, and we have a
President who has not been elected, a vicepresident-designate who is an appointee of an
appointee, and a new congress for whom only
38 per cent of us even bothered to vote
Even for an off-year election, a 38 per cent
turnout is low, by six-to-eight percentage
points, and that fact demonstrates as
emphatically as any the low state in which
Americans hold their political leaders, incumbents and contenders alike.
Those who did bother to vote, however expressed a sentiment that was not so much antiRepublican as it was anti-incumbent. True a
lot of Republicans lost, but there were also
quite a few so-called "safe-district" Democrats
who this year were returned by unusually
narrow margins,
'
Moreover, remember that many of the
Republicans who did lose were from districts
that are traditionally Democratic, and these
people were in office in the first place only
because of Richard Nixon's 1972 4l)-state
landslide.
Unfortunately for them, that landslide had
become a mudslide by 1974, thanks primarily
to Watergate and the economy.
If more evidence is needed, just look to
Maine, the nation's political barometer, which
shunned both the Democrats and the
Republicans, and elected an Independent
governor by a huge margin.
So I974's message to congress is: Beware,
incumbents, your necks will really be in the
block next timcaround when more people will
be voting.
The message to the White House is equally
alarming. First, if Nelson Rockefeller is u"1
confirmed by Christmas, there is u yuod
chance he may never be confirmed ill all. You
can bet that any person who has accumulated
a fortune the size of Rockefeller's is bound lo
have accumulated enough dirt u> rmild a
playground in which a congress so iinlineil
could merrily dig forever. And there are a l"i
of young upstarts who arc going lo come to
Washington in January bearing steam
shovels.
Not that Rockefeller isn't n good man
whose generosity puts Santa Claus lo shame;
it's just that Santa Claus didn't make most ol
his in New York during the 1950's, when many
a business deal was struck which today wool'1
inflame the sensibilities of a lot of people And
rightly so. Thus Rocky, who always warned to
be Hertz, may not even make it to Avis
As for Ford, the President is in trouble il the
1974 elections mean anything. An old maxim
says that any party going into a presidential
contest with 300 seats in the House ol
Representatives will win the White House as
well. The Democrats have 292. They jusl don't
have a candidate. Assuming they can settle on
one who is not a lunatic, then the former AH
American, former minority leader may soon
be able to add former President to his resume'

He could hear the sound of the party as he
walked up the stairs. It came to him as a
muffled roar, and the vibrations rocked his
feet. The young man was really high, and the
sounds felt so good. He walked right past the
girl at the door, not paying the one dollar entrance fee. He was invisible.
Inside, the room was dark. There were few
lights on, and they were all gloomy blue. All
the faces were white, washed of color. People
were moving in jerky, broken movements, to
the music of the band. The student wandered
through the crowd towards the bar, brushing
past people he wasn't sure he knew. He wanted
to be by himself tonight. He grabbed a beer
and walked away, not listening to the bearded
bartender who called after him to pay fifty
cents. There was no way to get at him anyway.
The crowd had grown, and just walking from
one side to another was difficult. The floor was
slippery.andhcmadchisway carefully through
the people, not wanting to spill his beer. It was
important that he get to a corner where he
could stand and watch the faces go by.
He reached the corner and leaned against
the hard wall. From where he was the crowd
seemed to be a single, growing organism. It
pulsed here, and retreated there. The only
thing he could compare it to was the amoeba
he had once seen in a biology movie. Mindless,
yet alive. The people there all looked alike to
him. They wore faded jeans, flower print
shirts, work shoes, and red bandannas creeping out of their hack pockets. He, too,fitthis
description, although his shirt was a pule, blue
workshirl, with white bleach spots. All the
girls had the same hairdo: long and straight,
with a part in the middle. The guys had dark
curly hair in imitation of Afros. So did he.
The band had just finished a song and they
announced a ten minute break. He could see
the disappointed look on many male faces.
rhey were hoping the band would continue so
they wouldn't have to talk to the girls they
were with.The young man smiled at that. He
didn't have that problem. He wasn't talking to
anybody, yet he was beginning lo wish
differently.
Across the room someone seemed lo be
heading towards him. The approaching person alternately disappeared and appeared as
heniadeliis way through the crowd. When he
was hallway across, the student could make
out who it was. It was an old roommate of his.
They weren't roommates anymore because
they had ceased communicating. What had
been a real friendship one September hud
become by the next May a bare tolerance. The
two had never talked about il and retained a
slight acquaintance now that they lived apart.
lie was about three quariers of the way
across the room nowviind ihe student could
see the other's eyes. They were lit up with acid,
he was sure. He had been wondering why his
old roommate was coming over. The roommate reached the student and stood there for a
second, wavering slightly on hit feet. The student looked him over. He had cut his hair and
was wearing it without a part. He seemed too
tall, and then the student looked down and
saw the polished brown shoes with a two-inch
sole and heel. They were new. His jeans were
blue and faded, yet there were no patches on
them. He wore a tee shirt emblazoned with the
red tongue and lips of the Rolling Stones.
There were black smudges under his eyes, and
his prominent nose cast a shadow on the left
side of his face. He was squinting against the
bright light on his right.
"Howyadoin". Man, I feel really incredible
tonight, ya know. We dropped at about three
this afternoon, and got off at five or so. It's
really good. I been wantin to do some for a
long time, and now that I'mfinishedwith all
my tests..." His voice trailed off and he seemed to be thinkingabout something very important. "Ya know, this acid is really clearin
things up inside. Like, we never talked about
why we stopped bcin friends. I don't know. It
just happened. I think we were into too many
different things. I mean the only thing wc had
to talk about was music, and gcttin high." He
was speaking very rapidly. The words tumbled
out of his mouth like foam spilling over the
side of a glass of warm beer. "Hey man, well,
look, I'm gonna go back to where I was before.
I'll seeya.Takeiteasy." He turned around and
began walking off to the right, the crowd forcing him to change his direction. The student
followed his progress with his eyes until he
could no longer be seen.
His beerfinished,the student began walking
towards the front of the room, so he would net
a better view of the band. They were the best
group around, and he liked to just stand near
them, watch, and listen.
Hegently pushed his way to the front'of the
room and stood in front of the band, it was
loudest right there and maybe it would be too
loud to think. He hoped no. Hedidn't want to
think of the things that bothered him. This
girl; that course. This graduate school; that
exam. He knew that his problems were the
problems of a privileged person; they were
luxurious problems. Most people in the world
had to worry about simply surviving.
Somehow that made his problems no less real
and important.
The music began. It was loud and the sound
filled him up. Heclosed his eyes and let it float
around in his mind. It washed him, cleansed
him, left him pure and new. Around him people were lookingat his shut eyes, slightly swaying body, and shook their heads. He felt
better, ready to enjoy himself. His mind had
been washed clean of troubles for the moment.
It was time to loosen up the body. It was time
to dance.
He opened his eyes and began scanning the
room for someone who looked like she was
ready to dance. On his right, ten feet away,
was a girl who was bouncing up and down in
time to the music, not moving from one spot.
She was tall, about five feet ten. Her brown
hair was shiny and curled under her chin,
framing her oval face. Her skin looked
smooth, and her large brown eyes smiled. Her
legs were long and her waist was small. The
blue and white striped shirt she wore clung
tightly. She was beautiful. He walked over lo
,'Heaw
her. "Yes. I'd like to dance." she answered. Her
voice was soft.
They walked onto the dance floor, she
leading, and stood near the band, "i like the
music to be loud," she Mid. The band began
playing, and the dance floor came alive. He
watched her dance, instead of looking
elsewhere, as the others did. She was graceful
and relaxed; no motion was wasted.
The music ended, but they stood there
together in the middle of the room, neither one
saying anything, but enjoying the moment.
They exchanged looks when the music started
up again, and began to dance. Ten minutes of
bouncing, twisting, spinning and dancing
later, the song ended. Both were warm and
tired. "Let's get a beer," she said. She took his
hand and led him through the crowd. After
they bought their beers, they walked outside
and sat down in the cool grass. "My name is
Evelyn."
"I'm Adam."
"What a clear sky tonight. I can't believe
how many stars there are. Look!" She grabbed
his arm and pointed to the northern part of the
sky.
"There's Orion. It's my constellation. I
always look for it wherever I am. I've always
thought that wc were linked together
somehow. When I can't find it I feel lost. Do
you have a special star?"
"No."
"What year arc you in'.'" She kept his arm.
"I'm a senior."
"What arc you going to do next year?'
"That's a really good question. I don't
know. Maybe I'll go to grad school, but I'm
not crazy about that.
I'd like to • travel',
maybe just around the country and take pictures, but I don't have the money for it."
"That sounds fabulous. I wish I could do
something like that, but 1 can't."
"Why notr
"I have to stay in school, or my parents
won't pay for me. They said if I drop out for
even one semester they won't pay for me
anymore."
"That doesn't sound too cool."
A silence fell, and they both sat in their own
worlds for a few minutes when she suddenly
spoke up.
"Do you want to go back inside and dance?'
"Sure." he answered, and they began to stand
up. He was on his knees, and she pushed his
shoulders, knocking him on his back. He
started laughing and grabbed her arm, dragging her down next to him. She fell over on her
side, and they laced each other. He looked at
her, brushed away the hair which had fallen
• into her yes, and they her mouth was on his.
warm and open. They stayed like that for a
long time. She broke away, and laughing
began jogging towards the door. He sal up
slowly and, slightly stunned, got up to follow
her.
Hack inside they walked into the now empty
party. The band was winding down the evening with a slow, mournful song.' Adam and
Evelyn put their arms around each other, and
slowly started tracing circles, figure eights,
and spirals on the floor. There was no one near
them. On the side a photographer took pictures of them silhouetted against the band.
They were the only people dancing. 'That's it for us tonight. Thanks a lot," said
Ihe bund's guitarist after the song. The lights
on stage went off, and the rest of the room lit
up. They both squinted in the sudden
brightness.
"Let's go over to my room and get high," she
said as she grabbed his hand again. He followed her out, not saying anything, his mind in a
happy, hazy swirl. He wasn't sure what was
going on; he only knew he was having a great
lime.
Ihe night was warm. She put her hand in his
and led the way. They reached a small footbridge and stopped. Underneath them ran a
small brook. It gurgled as it ran and the sound
soothed. She turned and put her arms around
his neck. His arms closed behind her waist.
Their eyes locked, then closed slowly. Beneath
his eyelids unnameable colors jumped,

Piano Shows Outstanding
by Myron E. Bra/in
If you've ever spent an extended
period of time in Albany, say four
years or so, and have not been lo the
Recital Hall, you have missed
something. It was the scene of two
outstanding piano recitals this week.
On Tuesday night, Andrew Rangell,
a graduate student at the Julliard
School, performed Beethoven's
Sonata in Bb and Ives' Firsl Sonata.
F i n d l a y Cockrell performed
Beethoven's Tempest Sonata and
other works last Wednesday and
Thursday afternoons.
Rangcll's professional career
began only last March with a debut
in New York City. Considering his
limited concert experience, he was
quite impressive. His interpretations
of both works were ralher unique.
Rangcll's strongest points were during the ragtime passages of the Ives
piece. He also paid more attention to
dynamics and other nuances. He
relaled the Beethoven and Ives
pieces, a difficult task considering
their vast differences.
From a musical poinl of view
Rangell seemed to crossblend the
two vastly different styles. It
appeared that he was a bit abrupt on
the Beethoven and somewhat lyrical
on the Ives. Usually il is the other
way around. As such, the approach
is valid in that he seemed to be updating the traditional approach lo
Beethoven. In a sense, this concert
underlies the trend of young
musicians lo treal modem music
with the same wholehearted approach as other music, rather than
isolate it. upologize for il, or
otherwise be wary of it.
Findlay Cockrell concluded his
"Second Wednesday and Thursday
al 4:00 Concerts" scries this season
with a serious analysis of Sonata
Allegro form in the pieces that he
played. This series is highly commendable because of the listening
and learning experience involved.
This program will be repeated on
Salurday, on November 23, and on
Sunday, November 24.
record review
by Laura E. Coleman
Since their appearance last year at
SU N YA, the'Ncw Riders of the Purple Sage have released two albums.
The first was a live album, and included their now ex-bass player,
Dave Torberl. Their newest album,
lirujo, is the first with Skip Batlin,
their new bass player.
This album shows a mellower side
of the Riders. Since their rowdy
Panama Red album, they seemed to
have calmed down and taken their
music more seriously.
The new songs of John Dawson
are evidence of this. This mellower
trend in his compositions first began
lo show up on Panama Redia "One
Too Many Stories" and "You
Should Have Seen Me Runnin." It is

Great cities are usually associated
with greatrivers.Rome's river was of
course the Tiber, often called by the
Romans the tawny {flaws) Tiber,
because of its muddy appearance..
That appearance is the same today.
And associated with rivers are
bridges. This article is a biographyhighlights only—of one of the
bridges which spanned, and still
spans, the Tiber.
Known in antiquity as the Pons
"bridge" Mulvius or Milvius, the
bridge has managed to retain in only
slightly altered form its original
name; it is in Italian the Pome Molle.
The Romans normally named their
bridges, as well as many of their
roads, after the official who let the
contract for their construction.
This man was frequently a well
known public figure with an Interesting history of his own. Hut in
the case of (he builder of this bridge,
nothing is known of him. Though
die Mulvian now stands within the
city limits, il was once three
kilometers north of Rome and
carried the Via Flaminia across the
fiber on its way to Ariminum,
modern Rimini. This bridge is The Mulvian B ridge still spans the Tiber River hi Italy. It has been In exreputed lo be the second Roman

vivid account of the action at the

classical forum"
continued onBrujo in "Old Man
Noll," and "Parson Brown". The
former of these songs proves Dawson's seriousness not only about
music, but about lyrics, as he seems
to go deeper into a serious topic than
he did on previous albums.
But despite his turn to more
thoughtful style, he still has retained
his ability to write a fun song. "lnslanl Armadillo Blues" is a good rowdy country song. In addition to the
crazy lyrics, inserted are little comments to add to the tone of the song,
"an armadilPskinda like an armored
car except he's got feet instead."
Olher songs on the album arc
taken from such writers as Bob
Dylan. NRPS gives an excellent rendition of "You Angel You" by combining the Riders' spirit and yet leaving the subtle Dylan style unchanged.
Olher composers sampled on linijo are Troy Seals combining his
talents with those of Will Jennings
and
Don
Goodman
for
"Workingman's Woman," and
Robert Hunter of the Grateful Dead
collaborating with David Nelson of
NRPS on "Crooked Judge."
Another combination is that of
Skip Battin, their new bass player
and Kim Fowley. Together they
provide music that gives the magic to
this album. Two of the songs they
contribute, "Neon Rose," and "On
the Amazon," arc purely fun songs,
and their other two on the album arc
superior country songs. These two
songs, "Big Wheels," and "Singing
Cowboy," are perfectly suited to the
New Riders' style. Battin's compositions, in addition to his bass
playing add to the Riders total image
of a great country rock band.
This album almost makes the
heights reached by Panama Redand
their first, NRPS.
In looking at this album, I can see
that despite the loss of DavcTorbert,
the Riders have pulled together, and
with the help of Skip Battin, have
produced a superior country record.

By far the most famous event
which occurred at the Mulvian
bridge was ihc one involving Constantine. By defeating Maxcntius in
the battle of the Mulvian bridge,
Constantinc became sole emperor of
Rome. Just before this battle he saw
a vision: the sign ol the cross with the
words: In hoc slgna vinces "In this
sign you will conquer." Thereafter,
from religious or political motives,
or a combination of both, Conslanli ne not only stopped the
pcrsecutionsof Christians but also in
many ways lent support to the
church.
The Mulvian bridge features in
modern military activities also. In
IK49. while Garibaldi was defending
the city, the northern arch was blown
up. During World Wur II theGcrman army retrealed from Rome by
way of this bridge: the allied armies
with Iheir heavy equipment followed. After all, the Pom Mulvius had
served as the principal "doorway" lo
Rome lor approximately 2000 years.

The following game was played at
the meeting o f the S U N Y A chess
club last Saturday, even though it
ended peacefully, the opening was
very tricky and led to a complicated
position. White had built up a nice
space advantage by the 15th move
but missed the best continuation that
would have given him the win. After
that, black played strongly to split

Lewis London will return to the
SUN Y A stage tonight and Saturday
in the Campus Center Assembly
Hall. London's last appearance here
was with a band called the Bottlchill
Boys. However, Lew struck out on
his own not too long ago, and now
has an act called Lewis London el til.
This group, consisting of Lew and
two backup men (on mandolin,
guitar, bass, etc.), is a versatile one.
Their style ranges from Jazz a la
Django Reinhart to Country Swing
(acoustic music done in a jazz-type
style).
Lewis London's musicianship can
be summed up in one word: superb.
In addition to being able to play
practically any stringed instrument
with phenomenal talent, London is
also noted for his talent as a vocalist.
His repertoire includes many songs
by contemporary writers such as
Paul Sicbel and Dave Bromberg.

Preservation Halt Jazz Band
The world famous Preservation
Hall Jazz Band will appear here in a
concert Saturday.
The band is on tour from its home
in legendary New Orleans where the
members of the group all took part
in the birth of our most American art
form.
Each of the members of the
Preservation Hall Jazz Band has
memories of the days when jazz,
"jass" as they spelled it at the turn of
the century, was taking form and
shape and becoming a separate kind
of music. They were in the bands that
inarched to and from the cemetery
far funerals, they were in the wagons
that drove up and down French
Quarter streets and battled it out
when two bands met at a corner.
They were on the river boats, in the
saloons and 'sporting houses' and
dances. In fact, they were the people
who added their names to Freddy
Keppard, Buddy Bolden, Louis
Armstrong, King Oliver and Jelly
Roll Morton in the exciting history
of an American art form that grew
from many sources in the special
culture that was New Orleans.
These are the people who made
the history. But their vitality and
youthful drive is still apparent in the
singing, happy music of New
Orleans and a concert today is full of
the same spirit that made jazz the uninhibited music of the period around
the first world war.

Urbaniak, a Polish violinistsaxophonist, is backed by a very

by the brilliant vocals of his wife,
Urszula Dudziak. His highly innovative music is neither pure jazz
nor pure rock, but is, as the name
suggests, is a fusion of the two. He's

Coryell is the main attraction' of
the night, ' producer of a highly
flammable mixture of the lucidity of
a jazzman, the conscientiousness of a

musician, all ignited by the spark of
spontaneity.
He has been very strongly influenced by Jimi Hendrix, and has
learned to incorporate the heavy textural effects of rock into his music,
resulting in the jazz/rock that is being called the "new music."
Unlike early Coryell, however,
The Eleventh House is a group, and
Coryell's guitar is an integral part of
the music—not the virtuoso
backbone it was in previous groups.
"I am really concentrating more
on being part of a total sound rather
than being a vituoso. The Eleventh

is really secondary to the totality of

NOVEMBER IS, 1974
To the Editor:
This letter is in response to your editorial of
November 8, in which you urged an alternate
way of funding NYPIRO. A mandatory refundable line, you stated, would be most practical. It would be practical, yes, but it would be
wrong.
Such a system, which forces all to contribute and allows refunds for those who All
out applications, exploits one's apathy. No
two ways about it. The only revenue-earning
advantage it has over normal voluntary contributions is the money gotten from students
who don't want to pay, but are too lazy to apply for a refund.
The reason a mandatory/ refundable system
is sought by PIRG is to provide a stable funding base for the organization. It seems that
college students' contributing patterns change
from year to year, and the group needs a funding revenue source they can count on.
Logical on the surface, but worthy of more
scrutiny.
There are literally hundreds of
organizations operating in the United States
as well as New York State today who are supported solely by contributions. The Red
Cross, Heart Fund, USO to name but a few,
all supported voluntarily, not mandatorily.
Billions are raised yearly by these
organizations.
These groups continue to exist because people see them as worthy of reaching into a
pocket and coming up with money. As soon as
a group stops satisfying the public, their funds
dry up. A perfect economy, people get only
what they want.
And here comes NYP1RG worried that
students might not cough up two bucks a
semester. "Students don't always know what's
good for them." But 1 guess NYP1RG does.
So we have NYPIRG, a public interest
research group, exploiting the public's apathy
in order to exist. Something is very wrong.
Isn't this method, which by its very nature
exploits one's apathy, something we would
want a public interest group to protect us
from, not something they promulgate?

Unitary Palestine
To the Editor:
Regarding your editorial of November,
1974 "Superpower-ed Peace". The action of
the Arab Summit, the recognition of the
Palestine Liberation Organization, is but a
realization of political reality.
Your editorial states: "The PLC) has never
proven that a majority of recent news films
from the refugee camps, or the CBS special on
the Palestinians, you could see inaccuracy of
your statement. As for Hussein, he is an agent
of imperialism. His slaughter of overlivcthoii
sand Palestinians with the material and
moral support of Richard Nixon hardly
makes him a "representative" of the
Palestinians. His cruel and barbaric oppression of the West Bank Palestinians is well
remembered by the Palestinians. The
Palestine Liberation Organization is not bent
upon the "extermination" of those inside Occupied Palestine, or as some say, Israel. The
PLO has stated time and time again that their
goal is a democratic Palestine where all inhabitants can co-exist in true peace. Not a
"Jewish State" nor a "Moslem Slate", nor a
"Christian State",butanon-sectariun, unitary

To the Editor:
The awesome power of the press implies
that such power be exercised in a responsible
manner. This responsibility accrues not only
to "establishment" newspapers, but also to
student organs. The ASP, however, has apparently decided that it is immune from such
responsibility. I refer specifically to the article
appearing in the Nov. 6 issue entitled, "Drinking Person's Guide to Off-Campus Pubbing—
Knickerbocker Liquorlocker."
The article portrays itself as a guide to offcampus drinking establishments. It appears,
however, to more properly represent the
opinions of one very biased and obviously
misinformed young woman. This bias is understandable and to a certain extent, even
forgivable. Miss Baskin is entitled to her personal likes and dislikes. What is unforgivable
is her offering these opinions as a factual guide
to drinking establishments. Not everyone will
agree with Miss Baskin's opinions, and as for
her implied degradation of "locals" and "townies," isn't a part of being an "educated" (i.e.,
student) person learning how to defuse not
foster tensions between divergent groups of
people? Come out of your ivory tower, Miss
Baskin. You may not always be a student and
there is a great big world outside that campus
that you ought to cope with.
If you're going to be a reporter, Miss
Baskin, you ought to make at least a halfhearted attempt to validate your facts (just so
everybody knows, what follows is the vested
interest part of this letter). It is obvious you
prefer a suburban cocktail lounge to a bar,
Miss Baskin, but a lot of people don't. If you
were truly offering a "guide" how could you ignore "downtown" bars which appeal to young
people? Naming but a few, I refer to G.J.'s
Galley, The Lark Tavern, Ralph's and The
Last Chance. These bars as well as my own,
have been making a lot of students happy for a
long lime.
The one thai you did mentian(7Yie Outside

"just recently" been promoting ourselves on
the campus. The truth is we've been promoting
ourselves on the campus for well over a year
and a half. You said thebarwasonly half filled
on a Friday night, but you don't say what time
that was. You also said that the crowd was
noisy and the jukebox was loud. Could it be
dtut a real party was going on? Youfurther
stated that the bartender was rushed, but how
can a bartender be rushed in a half-filled place
that scats only 50 people? Could it be that
either he wasn't rushed or that there were
significantly more people than you thought?
You also complained about bitter drinks,
The bitterness was just the unaccustomed taste
of liquor. '' usee, downtown bars don't have

food and have a few good drinks.
. AsforthelOsouvenirglassesyounowhave,
Ms. Baskin, don't go back to any of the places
you got them from. Every "drinking person"
knows better than to advertise his collection of
glassware and having been bartenders, we
know how the bartenders feel about people
who steal their glassware. In general, we feel
that one should not pretend to give a fair
analysis of a bar merely by what it looks like.
The people make the bar, not the decoration.
If the decor was everything, how would places
like Ralph's, O'Heaney's, good old Vinnie's
and Okkie's ever have the crowds they had?

Questionable Furor
House Beautiful?
To the Editor:
In response to Ms. Baskin's "Guide To Off
Campus Pubbery", we would like to suggest
that a drinking person's guide should be
written by a drinking person. It should be obvious to any "drinking person" lhat Ms.
Baskin's need for a "safely escorted entrance
to and exit from" each place in her tour of
Albany's finer establishments docs not put her
in the drinker's class. In fact, she'd probably
have trouble lining up to get in the John at
some places.
We arc not responding entirely to poke fun
at Ms. Baskin, but to state our opinions of a
couple of places that she "reviewed". Our
feelings will probably not erase the impression
created by her poorly informed pen in a two
page spread last Wednesday.
First the Tavern. The description of the
decor is very nice, accurate and perfect for a
column in House Beautiful. To rate the
Tavern's decor so well and put down the very
similar style of A cross the Street is a little unfair. Maybe the Tavern is a little more rustic
looking, but the Pub is definitely not "cold and
stark". For the record, Vincent's Tavern was
rcplacedby/l cross the Street Pub last year, but
Vinny, whoever he is, did not change the
name. Fred and Al, the owners of Vinnie's and
now the Pub, are running a place where any
one is welcome—singles, groups, couples, old
and young. Not only do they have a fine price
on beer during the Happy Hours, but they
have excellent pizza and sandwiches all the
time. Maybe some regular patrons liked it
better before, but a lot more arc enjoying this
place now.
Having lived by rV.T.'s one summer, Ithink
1 can say a few words about it also (since I
drank there quitea bit too). rV. T. 's may be a
student institution, but it has always handled a
large group of older people and non-students
(and always will). The management believes
"tavern" means Irish because the management
is I rish and ca ters to an I rish crowd during the
day as well as anyone else. If you think the
back room looks like a I960's malt shop, you
should have seen it 2 years ago.
Finally, Ms. Baskin should not depend so
much on others for information she is relaying
to her readers. Sludley's is for variety maybe,
but anything else you've said is wrong. To say
Sludley's caters to males is like saying the
Army caters to them also. Of course there are a
lot of men there, but then again, aren't there a
lot of men in any bar? Sludley's has its share of
women, maybe less than other places, but
what's wrong with that? Some people like to
get away from the regular routine. As far as
the population there goes, students are not
turned away or ever singled out as a group
from others. The owners do not hold anything
against anybody because of the "group" he
belongs to. Each drinker is treated as the individual he presents himself as, and as
customers there since .it opened, we've never
seen anyone treated unfairly,
ALBANY STUDENT PRESS
To the Editor:
The power of certain communicative agencies at the University, particularly the ASP, to
raise a so-called "furor" over campus issues is
a vital and meaningful responsibility, but only
if extreme care is taken in the exercise of this
power.
In your recent lead article on the reappointment of Chairman Forer of (be" Sociology
Department, the reporter, nrofesses to have
assured a blanket'anoniirflty to a,"score" of
faculty and students, so that they might be
more encouraged to talk freely on "(he reasons
for the present and former low morale." It
turns out, though, that the Only reason cited
was Ray Forer. Coincidence? Or were the
cards stacked against him from the beginning?
And by whom? When the academic career,
and in so shocking a manner, the personal integrity of a person is so savagely attacked, we
must demand from the accuser more than
oblique references in twelve separate instances
to a "faculty member."
As fur as the editorial comment, it is no less
than shameful, and certainly poor journalism,
to see the A SP cite Professor Forer as "using
intimidation and coercion" and "afraid of
those who look better than him" without some
solid substantiation of these charges. If the
faculty is so adamant in itsdisdain of its chairman, it must be prepared to do more than
supply innuendo to a publishing organ and
then hide behind pages of newsprint.
Having no academic background in
sociology, I cannot evaluate your charges of
Dr. Forer's professional ability. But having
served with him on University committees of
significant import, 1 greatly appreciate his
almost overwhelming frankness and personal
warmth. Certainly, he is an outspoken man,
but that comes as a relief from the overly
diplomatic and constantly hedging academic
"superstars" who walk our halls daily. It is a
crime that Dr. Forer be only human? His understanding of my needs and deficiencies and
his ability to extend a helping hand of genuine
sincerity made me damned glad Ray Forer
was my chairman.
I don't know if Dr. Forer is destined to be
the new whipping boy of the ASP (it's been a
long time since the vitriolic attacks on Kendall
et al.), but when you recognize the ability you
possess to publicly lash out and shame the very
character of a good and decent man, you can
only be worthy of this literally awesome
responsibility by substantiation and statement
of fact, and not by frenzied incantation of opinion, before riding your white horse off into
the sunset.

For some reason, • lot of: people find
registration to be a bit of a hassle. Actually,
dear friends, nothing could be further from the
truth, assuming of course, you follow some
basic rules.
,1.
When you come down to Preregistration, be prepared. You should have
with you a tan registration card, a green computer card, red scheduling card, a white card,
plaid card, and the 10 of spades. Also
suggested is a course guide manual, closed
course listings, pens, paper, sleeping bag, canteen, firewood and ground cloth.
2. Respect the time you are scheduled to
register. Occasionally, backups do occur, and
I'd suggest bringing along some sort of book,
to read. Perhaps War and Peace or Websters
Unabridged. If you do take Websters', be
aware that the plot thins out around the letter
'P'. And where Noah does bring up some interesting subjects, 1 find he just doesn't go deep

Agricultural Districts:
Towards Comprehensive
Land-Use Planning
by Lawrence Pohl
One ofthe moat pressing needs in New York
State and throughout the country is the need
for some sort of comprehensive land-use plan'
ning. Many persons are unaware that land-use
planning is not necessarily a one-shot deal. In
fact, while no official statewide plan exists, the
State has been accummulating several
regional studies and thus is incrementally approaching similar goals as any comprehensive
land-use program. Among these regional
commissions are the Hudson River Valley
Authority, the Adirondack Park Agency, the
Catskill Commission, the Tug Hill Commission and other regionally sponsored land-use
studies such as the Eastern-Ontario-St.
Lawrence report.
In addition to these regional commissions
there exists a state law encouraging the protection and preservation of rural farmlands. The
Agricultural Districts Law, theofflcial title for
this program, recognizes the important role
played by agriculture in the State. A majority
of urbanized New Yorkers fail to recognize
that%ne-sixth of all of New York's land area

philosophy of baiketweaving and why it's a
dying art. Topics discussed will include The
Basketweayer and hierelationship and
obligation's to society, the problems encountered by a basketweaver in a blatantly exploitiit capitalist pig society, and the
philosophy of tiling synthetic straw.
TERMPAPER PREPARATION
3 CREDITS. The course explores- the finer
particulars of term papers: where to buy them,
how to modify them to your particular assignment, etc. Projects will include comparison of
different firms' products, and reports on termpaper production. The reports will be verbal.
MEN'S LIBERATION
A much requested course, it will focus on the
often neglected contributions that males have
made to our civilization throughout history.
Projects will include interviews with male
truckdrivers, male lumberjacks, wafejockeys,
etc. Professor Mathew Kismoh is enthusiastic
about the course: "It'll really open their eyes.
So few people really knowabout the actions of
'males throughout the centuries. For instance,
did you know that the light bulb was invented
by a man'! So was thefirstlaser. It's amazing,
when you stop to think about it . . . "
THEORY OF THEORY THEORIZING
A required course here at SUNYA. It tries to
explain how a university can get by with
courses that are of absolutely no use to the
students. Attempts will be made to account for
many of the students who leave Albany unable to function in the real world. A prerequisite for any SUNYA course, such as theory
of typewriting, theory of swimming, etc., the
course will require a lot of work, none of it of
any purpose in the real world.
APATHY WORKSHOP
Tests optional. Papers optional. Attendance
optional. Matter of fact, they may not hold the
course.
So, you see, registration doesn't have to be n
hassle. It doesn't have to bedifficult. In fact, it
doesn't even have to be. Drop out, get a job,
and stop sponging off your parents, you no
good lousy lazy pinko college bum.
Editor's Note: Due to an unintentional juxtapositioning of paragraphs in last week's
Castles Burning, part of it might not have
made sense. It was a typographical error. This
week, however, Ken has no excuse if it doesn't
make sense.

business on the college campuses of

that will pay $244,000 and a Jan. I

$500,000.
The Thanksgiving night game
against Pitt was originally scheduled
on the following Saturday at Pitt
Stadium. By switching sites and
allowing television to tune in, both
schools will clear more than $200,000 in profits, considerably more

Season on The Line
Gridders Host RPI
by Les Zudterman
Albany State football has been
ranked seventh in the final Lambert
Bowl standings, Only three of the six
teams ahead of them have unbeaten
records.
The dream of a perfect season
began with successive wins over
Alfred and Hofstra. After victories
against Nichols and Curry, the illusion was placed into the realm of
possibility.
Tomorrowat 1 p.m., R.P.I, will be
the final obstacle for an Albany
State team that seeks perfection. The
game will be played at University
Field.
Last Saturday, the Danes easily
defeated Plattsburgh by the score of
49-8. Albany State was held to fourteen points in the first half, but then
exploded in the final thirty minutes.
The Dane defense was outstanding against Plattsburgh. The Cardinal running game was completely
dissolved. Albany's i pass defense
had a fine day with five interceptions.
The Danes performance against
Plattsburgh is an important factor in
tomorrow's game with R.P.I. The
Engineers have a pass-oriented
offense that has been plagued all
season by frequent interceptions.
R.P.I, used two quarterbacks
throughout the game situation.
Freshman Dave Coons started last
week against Trinity College. He
threw five interceptions, before being replaced by Senior Jon Nystrom.
The problem was not remedied by
Nystrom, as he threw two interceptions as well.
Dave Coons is the best passer on
the R.P.I, squad. If he is given
protection, he can hit his receivers
with consistency. However, he has
the tendency to throw the ball into a
crowd, if under pressure. This season
has found that most of Coon's tosses
have found their way into the hands
of the opposition.
Albany will try to put a strong
pass rush on Coons to force him to
put the ball up for grabs. The Dane
secondary will arrange their
coverage to be in position to pick up
the interception.
R.P.I, has a fine flanker in Pete
Kettering, who leads the team in
receptions. He has good hands and
speed, but his biggest asset is his
ability to run evasive patterns.
The Engineer running attack is
centered upon half-back Aaron
Anzclc. His talent is overshadowed
. by an excellent offensive line than is
capable of opening holes in any opposing defensive line.
The R.P.I, offensive line combination of Steve.Connors at guard and
Bill Kahl at tackle is highly respected
by Dane Coach Bob Ford. "Both
men arc great blockers and have the
size and strength to execute their
assignments". At center, Stoyan
Lokar isagood complement to Conners and Kahl.
On defense, the Engineers are lead
by Captain Tom Russell at defensive
tackle. Russell is 5'I0", 230 pounds.
He is a very dedicated ballplayer
with all the necessary physical skills.
The star of the R.P.I, defense is
middle guard Mike Carbonc. The
Dane scouts call him "super
aggressive with a great nose for the
football". R.P.I.'s defense is the
strong-point of the squad, mainly
due to Cnrbonc and Russell.
In the secondary, R.P.I, has two
fine athletes in Vince Ricciardi and
Ron Page. Both men are expected to
play wide receiver tomorrow as well
as defensive back. This is part of the
Engineer strategy to stress the passing game. Ricciardi and Page are extremely fast and will try to break the
Dane zone along with Kettering at
flanker.
Ricciardi is the best athlete on the
R.P.I, team. He leads the team in interceptions with eight. He reads the
run exceptionally well and will not
give up the long pass. Playing both
offense and defense will hurt his
effectiveness.
The Engineers linebackers are
tough on defending the run but will
be having problems dropping back
to cover the pass. The Danes will
utilize this factor to concentrate on
passes over the middle and in the
flats.
The Dane game plan is to shut off
the running attack of RPI and force
them to pass. Then the Albany
secondary can concentrate on pass
coverage formations. R.P.I, isaware
of the fact that their running game is The Danes in their game against Brockport. Above: Albany's delense
poor except for Anzelc. They are stops the Eagles cold. Below: Glenn Sowalskee on way to big gain.
keeping no secrets that they arc going to throw the ball all day.
Tomorrow's game will mark the
last performance of seven veterans of
the Albany State varsity program.
They are: Jim Holloway, Rudy
Vido, Mike Basla, Don Mion, Dom
Pagano, Tim Myers, and Teddy
Robinson. These seniors will be
given plenty of playing time
tomorrow by Coach Ford.
The Albany State offense under
the direction of John Bertuzzi
should have little trouble tomorrow
with the R.P.I, defense. John is an
excellent play callerand excels under
pressure.
Bertuzzi can he expected to give
the ball to Tom DcBlois a great deal
tomorrow. The Danes will be trying
to go against the strength of R.P.I.—
that being Mike Carbonc. If Carbone is unable to handle DcBlois inside, then Bertuzzi will be ableto mix
the short passes with the run. The
result being that the R.P.I, defense
will suffer and may prove incapable
of reestablish ling itself against the
Danes.

by George Miller
A long, long season is finally
drawing to a close for the Albany
State Cross-Country team, as they
concluded their dual meet schedule
Tuesday afternoon here on their
home course. It was a happy ending
for the harriers, too, as they finished
on a solid note, by soundly downing
Union College 15-46.
The running looked good on
Tuesday, although Union was expected to offer little resistance,
which they did. Despite chilly, damp
conditions, with wet grounds, the
varsity made it a clean sweep of the
first five places.
The big three, consisting of Vinuy
Reda, Chris Burns and Curio
Cherubino made it in us a unit all
running the 5.0 mile course in
26:26:6. Fourth plucc wus held down
by SUNYA's Brian Davis with a
26:41 and fifth position was grubbed
by Gary Furlong, 27:06.4. Union's I2 runners, Roy Wandelmaier and
Stan Wiskowski, came in 6th and 7th
respectively at 27:42 and 27:5.1.
One point that should he mentioned is a word ol thanks to the Union Athletic Department and the
cross-country coach. The meet with
Albany was originally scheduled for
the previous Tuesday, Due to a
change in the date of the Nationals.
Union kindly agreed to postpone our
meet, thus allowing Ihe Albany
runners to rest.
Season Ends
With the completion of the dual
meet season, the 1974 cross-country
team can look buck with pride at Ihe
new win record they sei this fall.
Albany finished with an outstanding
12-1 slutc in dual competition.
Said Couch Hob Munsey, "I'm
kinds, tickled about that it did give us
u new record in the area ol'dual meet
wins. The chances are that we will
not really get twelve again."
The reason for this is in the upcoming year the schedule is being cut
back a little by CoachMunsey. The
motivation behind this move is the
idea of trying to gel a little more rest.
By cutting hack on the number ol
running dates, the possibility of an
extra long season, such us this prist
one, is eliminated, and hopefully
better performance at each meet will
develop.
"The teams we've dropped are
kind of the automatic win variety,"
mentioned Munsey, "so the record
might not he as good hut I think it'll
be better for us."
