Maybe they should be called the
"Great Bulla". Because it seems that
once the Albany varsity baseball
team gets going in one direction, it's
awfully hard to get them to turn
around.
After dropping their first six
decisions of the spring capaign, the
Great Danes proceeded to win their
next five before Anally succumbing
to LeMoyne in the second game of
Wednesday's home double header
by a 4—1 score.
It began in Brockport. After being
utterly humiliated in the first game
by a IS—I margin, the Danes finally
learned what the word "victory"
meant when they squeaked out a 5—
4 win in the nightcap.
With the score tied 4—4 in that
one, Mike Melzer led off the final
frame with a base hit. Pinch runner
Mike Mirabella advanced to second
on a succeeding wild pitch and came
around to score on back-to-back
singles by Mike Gamage and Howie
Markowitz. And when Albany
hurler John Dollard slammed the
door in the bottom of the frame.the
Danes had their first triumph of the
season.
In fact, they liked that one so
much, they decided to try it again.
Tangling with powerful Siena last
Tuesday, they managed to come
away with a 7—6 win in a game that
really had not quite ended. You see,
the Danes led 7—6 after e i g h t thanks mainly to Jim Wiloughby's
three-run homer in the tint.
Then Siena tallied twice in the
ninth to grab the lead. Albany came
back to tie in their half, but with two
outs umpire John Domanico called
the game because of darkness. Since
the inning was not completed, the
game reverted to the score of the
previous frame, thereby giving the
Danes the win. Albany coach Bob
Burlingame did not argue.
With two wins now under their
belts, they were ready for (shudder)
big, bad Hart wick—a powerhouse in
the East. But in all fairness to the
Warriors, they never really had an
opportunity to prove their might.
With Albany ahead by a 3—2 score
after five, down came the rains to
wash out the game and carry Albany
to its third straight victory.
(Willoughby's two-run single in the
third proved to be the game-winning
hit).
And that brought on Union in a
game played here Saturday. With
Albany ahead 3—0 after six, the roof
fell in on starter Pual DiLello in the
seventh. And on his replacement Bob
Kronenberger. Before the dust had
cleared, Union had scored seven
runs on four hits and five walks to
grab a 7—3 lead.
But the Danes had only begun to
fight. Tallying two times in their half
of the seventh, the hosts camp up
with a five-run rally in the next inning to pull out the win. John Craig's
one-out single tied the game before
Jeff Breglio's three-run blast iced it.
Win number four.
And trie first game of
Wednesday's twinbill proved to be
win number five. The Danes once
again resorted to late-inning heroics
by scoring once in the sixth and once
in the seventh to pull out a dramatic
6—5, come-from-behind victory.
Two walks, a single, and an infield
error put Danes' starter Dollard in a
2—0 hole in the veryfirstinning. But
when Willoughby came through
once more with a two-run double in
the home first, it was a new
ball game.
A walk to Craig and a long home
run off the bat of Breglio—his second in two games—gave the hosts a
4—2 advantage after three.
But Dollard was struggling. And
inthe fifth, LeMoyne nicked him for
three runs to grab the lead once
more. A single by Mahoney, an error
by shortstop Craig, a Gilroysingle, a
Gapski sacrifice fly, and a Barry
double accounted for the scores.
Umoyne threatened to break the
game wide open in the next frame
when they loaded the bases with
nobody out. Only a third-to-hometo-first double play and a ground out
averted disaster. And saved the
game.
In the bottom of the sixth, the
Danes tied it. Breglio started it by
singling to left. Pinch-runner Scott
Demner stole second, moved to third
on an error, and scored on Roger
Plantier's line single to center.
In the last of the seventh, victory
was at hand. Paul Nelson opened the
frame with a walk on four pitches by
loser Tom Fletcher. Nelson stole second and moved to third on a solid
single off the bat of pinch-hitter
Larry Humphrey. And when first
Sunday evening at 7:30 pm Central Council will meet in special session to discuss the future of intercollegiate athletics on the Albany
campus, and to vote on its proposed
1976-77 budget.

budget of $149,000; a budget which
requires $19,000 to be withdrawn

that has been made recently?
DiMeo: As far as the National

total waste of money . . . As far as
SASU goes, I've been very critical of
SASU this whole year, it goes farther
lhan the petty corruption that took
place. My qualm with SASU isthat I
don't think a few people should
decide whether we should belong to
SASU. I offered a rider thai saidthat

leadership this year is not what I
would like il to be, is the organization that can do thai. That's why I

Slant On Sports
Bauman argues, and rightly so,
that to propose a budget in excess of
the $130,000 which will be generated
for AAB from mandatory student
t a x would be irresponsible.
However, as president of S A. it is his
responsibility to propose the best
budget for every group, based on
funds available, and, like it or not,
the dollars from the surplus arc
available and have been used for exactly this purpose during the past
few years.
Suggestions that Bauman propose
a budget including the $19,000, and
explaining to Central Council exactly what the situation is regarding the
surplus, have been ignored.
Apparently, Bauman believes
there is fat somewhere in the budget,
but, like most politicians, refuses to
tell the public about it.

One of my opponents abstained

As far as the athletic budget deficit
(approximately $19,000), I am in
favor of solving the problem in the
same manner as in the past—by taking the money from the AAB surplus.
That's why the money was
collected in the first place, and also
the reason for the creation of thesurplus. Certainly this is a better solution than cutting sports out of the

Labor Party Blamed For Use Of Violence
by Paul Rosenthal
The U.S. Labor Party, a group
which has admitted use of violence
as a political tactic, has been blamed
by the Young Socialist Alliance for
recent physical and written attacks
on several individuals in the Albany
area, including at leasl one SUNYA
student.
Kevin Kellogg. Defense Director
for the local chapter of YSA, claims
the National Caucus of Labor Committees (the Labor Party's parent
organization) telephoned threats 10
"smash YSA" and injure ils
members.
Spencer Livingston, a YSA
member and a candidate lor Student
Association president lust year, was
allegedly beaten by three assailants
on returning to his Slate Street home
the night of April 14.
Spokespersons lor USl.P deny
charges thai they are responsible for
Ihe rccenl violence, culling them
slander and intimidation. The parly's SUNYA campus organizer,
Keith Inglis, did admit USLP
resorted to physical attacks against
the C o m m u n i s t
Party in
Philadelphia in 1971.
Inglis, a physics graduate sludent.
said Labor Parly members "busied
up meetings" as pari of the group's
"Operation Mop-up."
Kellogg said the threats received
by YSA mentioned an "Operation
Mop-Up Phase Two."
At ti meeting yestcrduy, YSA
members discussed possible defense
actions to be taken on behalf ol two
individuals allegedly subjected to
USLP harrassmcnl.
YSA claims Doug Bollock, a
Schenectady resident, losl his job
alter Labor Party literature referred
to him as a terrorist for an FBIcontrolled organization. Rick Hind
was supposedly called a drug addicl
and homosexual after he criticized
USl.P on his program on WRPI
radio.
Labor Party area coordinator
Richard Black said, "There is no factual basis whalsoever" for the YSA
charges. He claims that Ihe Com-,
ntunisi Purly and the Socialist
Workers Purty (YSA's parent
group) lire "not merely FBIinfiltrated, but FDI-conlrollcd."
Black said YSA is blaming USLP
us part of a nationwide slander cam-
paign. He said Ihe party receives
many of its contributions from university professors and YSA is
attempting to eliminate those
donations.
The Labor Parly's ideology is difficult to pinpoint. Il has been critical
of organizations both on Ihe led and
on the right. Il is often referred lo as
a communist group, but remains at
odds with the Communist Party.
Members of the party speak at
length about international economy
and are constantly expressing their
animosity for Nelson Rockefeller.
USLP members have made
themselves visible on the SUNYA
campus several times this year.
Grievances were filed with SA officials alter students were physically
slopped in order lo purchase their
party newspaper.
Students also claimed that their
picture was taken alter they hud confronted the USLP workers. SA Vice
President Rick Mcckler, the individual in charge of solicitation permits on campus, said no permit had
been issued to the group, but
questioned his owuuuthority to limit
their freedom of speech.
Chris lewis, the USLP's candidate for Congress, spoke al an
Itulian Studies Program rally in
March. Lewis, after explaining
USl.P economic policies, was asked
lo leave the rally by its organizers.
Inglis said of YSA publicity, "We
don't consider them important.
I hcy're no threat to us." The Labor
Party has indeed been the target of
nationwide left-wing publicity.
An Arizona socialist newspaper
charged Ihe USl.P with use of clubs,
chains, and pipes. The Communist
Party claims ihe existence of a
"school for spies" on a farm near
Cllcn Falls. (The USLP denies that
such II school exists.)
Although YSA continues lo he al
odds with the Labor Party, ihey
acknowledge its freedom of speech.
Kellogg admitted, "We support their
right to be on campus."
It is not likely USLP will disappear from campus, nor from the
national political scene. The party's
founder, Lyndon LaRouchc, said
last fall, "If we (Labor Party] cease
to exisl, Ihe possibility of the survival of Ihe human race becomes
very small indeed."
WSUA/^.V/I Steve, inyouropinion. what is the purpose of the
athleticbourd surplus? How can the
money in thai fund be best utlized
for the interests of the students?
DiMeo: I think it can be best
utilized for a recreational purpose
such as a field house. If you want to
get into the athletic board budget, I'll
again say I'd like to see part of the
surplus put buck into the athletic
budget for next year.
WSUA//IS/ 1 . What else besides
the field house?
DiMeo: Well, that's been Ihe main
proposal right now. a field house or a
bubble-type structure, and 1 think
that would deplete the whole athletic
board budget.
WSUA /I.Sh Have you thought
of any other uses for Ihe money?
DiMeo: They thought at onetime
of pulling a bubble over the tennis
courts, hut I would deli net I y put it
towards a recreational purpose.
Ix'veiiswr. I don't know how thai
squares wilh your vole lo pay for

that ihey must do il.
DiMeo: Yes. there is.
LevcnsoiK As the chairman of
Council pointed nut. it probably
wouldn't be done.
DiMeo: Hul it would take a 2/3
vole of Council to disregard the past
year's Council's intentions.
WSUA/ASP:
Sieve, this past
week, all members of SUNYA
athletic teams received a letter from
one of your fraternity brothers
written on official Physical Education Department stationary asking
sludent athletes to support you due
to your record on athletics. Do you

Presidential Candidates Make Voter Appeals
Democrats Criticize Ford
PHILADELPHIA (AP) Two
Democratic presidemial candidates
said Sunday that President Ford
wants to delay the revival of federal'
campaign subsidies because be

But Jimmy Carter said Congress
was at fault and predicted that the
aid probably wont be restored
before the primary elections are
over..
Carter, Sen. Henry M. Jackson of
Washington, Rep. Morris K. Udall
of Arizona, Alabama Gov. George
C. Wallace and Sen. Frank Church
of Idaho spent an hour answering
questions on a nationally relevised
interview program.
All but Church are on the ballot in
Pennsylvania's presidential primary
Tuesday, although Wallace complained that his candidacy is not getting proper attention.
"I wish -that the national news
would dictate that I am a candidate,"
he said. " . . . I want the people of
' Pcnnsylvanaia to know I am running."
Most of what the candidates had
to say in their joint appearance on
the ABC-TV program "Issues and
Answers" was in restatement of
positions and forecasts that they
have been discussing on campaign
platforms. There was a moment's
confrontation between Jackson and
Carter over salary scales and the union shop in the South.
The former Georgia governor insisted that workers in his part of the
country are paid wages comparable
to those in other regions. Jackson
scoffed at the claim.
But thefive-manshow was hardly
a debate. When it ended. Carter,
Jackson and Udall went back to
their personal vote-hunting on a
rainy, chilly day. Wallace already
has concluded a brief Pennsylvania
campaign. Church is not entered in

WASHINGTON (AP) The Federal
Power Commission may have
limited competition for a $10 million
computerization contract, but it

regulations, a lengthy government
investigation has found.
The report of the 18-month
General Accounting Office investigation was made available to
the Associated Press by Rep. John

"The contract award by the commission was in technical conformance with federal procurement
regulations," the GAO government's
w a t c h d o g agency r e p o r t e d .
"However, certain commission actions may have detracted from the
competitiveness of the award."
The successful bidder, a subsidiary of Planning Research
Corp., was given a competitive advantage by being permitted to bid on
the contract after having won an
earlier contract to develop criteria
for thp iob. the investigators said.
Inhibited Competition
The accounting office report said
the commission "inhibited competition" by giving firms only 38 days to
respond to its complex specifications
and by rejecting requests by three of
the firms for more time.
These statements have been
solicited from the candidates for SA

One of the themes that I have
stressed during this campaign has
been the lack of communication
between Student Association and
the student body. It has becnthe case
in recent years for the SA President
to hide out in room 346—never seen
by the student body. I believe that a
Student Association president
should bevisibletothestudent body.
More importantly, the SA president
should make the effort to go out and
seek opinions from the students. It's
the responsibility of the SA president to represent student interests,

slogan is that you're "the independent candidate." I'd like to know
what you're independent of, that
your opponent is not?
Parker: I'm independent of the
present SA workings inside toe office of Central Council. I received a
lot of feedback from students at the
university who really don't know
what's going on in SA. They don't
care. What they hear is that Central
Council debates back and forth. All
the students care about is that SA
will help them out and that they will
see something for their student tax
money. I feel that I can work better
with certain people, possible withthe
ASP, maybe with WSUA and with
the administrators, coming in with
some new ideas and fresh blood.
Hollander: I decided not to runfor
president because the president, as
most of you know, speaksdirectlyto
the administration and students, and
doing that takes a lot of working
time away from the president. He's
always concentrating on making
speeches or on forming policy. Since
the vice-president can work more
behind the scenes, he can take care of
many projects. He has more time to
devote to exact projects, instead of
having to answer as the president
does, to

Hollander: I think I would try to

foward. I think it's important that
you have a president and vicepresident that agree. When they do
agree the students and the administration will get more credibility
in what they do. Opposing viewpoints can be taken care ol belling

set up and negotiated and therefore
the president and the vice-president

Commuter—
Commuters arc now being recognized as a viable student force on campus, Central Council, bogged down
with petty rivalries and bickering,
must become more responsive to all
students.
Mark Bere/ow
Committer'— The
major emphasis of student government should be responsive and
responsible action designed to meet
the needs of students. Commuters
need representatives who yield to
nobody.
Cary Klein

Presently Central Council is insensitive to true student wants and
needs. Let the money bespent where

aid in my efforts to promote the best
interests of undergraduates, the
forgotten majority on this campus.
Perry Fonnan Commuter—As a

AMI A a larger part of this school;
for moving funds from Intercollegiate Athletics to lntramurals.

Recently declassified State
Department and Justice Department documents reportedly show'
that General Motors and several
other major American corporations
made millions of dollars in profits
during World War Two by dealing
secretly with the Nazis, as well as
with the Allies.
Penthouse Magazine, in its May
issue, reports that top officers with
C M . , in apparent violation of the
"Trading with the Enemy Act", held
clandestine business meetings with
corporate leaders from Germany at
the height of the War.
The documents, according to
Penthouse, indicate that General
Motors covertly maintained an active interest in several of its German
subsidiaries, including Ihe Opel
Company, throughout World War
Two.

Penthouse adds that the final
irony was that General Motors, at
the conclusion of the War, collected
more than $32 million from U.S.
taxpayers for damages inflicted by
American bombs on the G.M.owned plants in Germany.
One U.S. Senate memo summarizing G.M.'s role concluded:
"Had the Nazis won. General

impeccably Nazi; as Hitler lost (the
Company was) able to reemcrge impeccably American.

wages necessary to cover the combined 1976 tax bills.

The Presidential Race: An Analysis Of The Candidates
The SA presidential race has never before reached such intensity! The candidates are
Harry Bratspiss (fat) versus Steve Evangoy (cute!). First there's the great motorcades:
The ASP, as the only general newspaper on this campus, has a special obligation to
its reader* when making SA election endorsements. In addition to stating preferences,
it is necessary to explain how they were arrived at. Each candidate has strong and weak
points. Their respective pluses and minuses wereweighedin arriving at a decision.
The endorsement committee was comprised of seven members of the A SP staff, all
familiar with various aspects of SA. Over eight hours were spent with the candidates.
An additional seven hours were spent by the committee discussing the candidates'
stands and attitudes. There were "areas" in which each candidate proved superior to
the others. These were weighed in light of the committee's impressions of where SA
needs to direct itself next year. Each of thecandidate's shortcomings wereexamined to
ascertain how detrimental they would prove to their performance in office.
Matthew Kaufman
Matthew Kaufman is clearly not the best choice. His intentions are well placed, but
he lacks the knowledge, experience and communicative skills necessary to direct SA.
Steve DiMeo
Steve DiMeo has demonstrated that he can deal with the student government
structure. DiMeo is open to new ideas and would create an atmosphere of freedom
within SA, an atmosphere which would be conducive to u great amount of both
internal and external input.
But the president must bealeadcr
not just a mediator. DiMeo has not shownthc
spark of an initiator; he channels ideas, he docs not create them.
Steve DiMeo would perform the function of the SA President. Under him, SA
would continue to exist — but that is not enough. There are a lot of things SA should
do lor students, beyond holding meetings and distributing money.
SA needs more than a president who will only keep trie organization in operation.
Rather, SA needs a student leader who will take SA a little closer to the students. SA
does not need a president who will streamline the internal workings, it needs a
president who will take it in a new direction, one who can focus energies imaginatively.
Steve DiMeo is receptive, and has a good sense of what is fair and reasonable.
DiMeo would be a satisfactory SA President, but that's not what SA needs. DiMeo
lacks necessary innovation.
Jay Miller certainly has enthusiasm and determination, but unfortunately lacks selfcontrol and the ability to self-evaluate accurately, He tends to take stands and defend
them passionately, but lacks a crucial sense of when to compromise. This, and his
difficulty in organizing other people to work, makes Miller a serious risk in a position
where such abilities are of paramount importance.
Jon Levenson, while not as dynamic a speaker as Miller, knows best the workings of
group situations. Levenson has an easygoing nature which can present a viewpoint
without ruling out all others as inferior. When necessary, he can be forceful.
I.evcnson's faults lie in the presentation of his views, which are occasionally more
lengthythan required. This is a fault, one which Levenson is likely to rise above. His
knowledge of the university and SA, his abilities to excite people, and his intelligent
views make Jon Levenson a sensible choice for SA President.
This analysis is based on probabilities. It is more likely that Levenson will overcome
his deficiencies and improve upon his successes than it is that Miller will avoid
emotional outbursts and become an effective leader or that DiMeo will add the new
ideas which SA needs.
Many contend that SA is dead wood. DiMeo lacks the spark needed to ignite it,
while Miller might start a fire that nobody could put out. Kaufman simply hasn't got
the matches. Levenson should be able to light the fire and keep it burning under
control.
Jay Miller
Jay Miller is sharp; he knows the internal workings of SA, he knows the issues and he
knows where he stands on the issues. Miller is highly principled. Miller has more than a
spark of enthusiasm, he's got a whole bonfire's worth. This can earn him respect
amongst students and administrators. This can help him accomplish things and,
perhaps, change SA for the better.
But Miller gets so wrapped up in his enthusiasm that his perspective becomes
clouded with emotion and he loses the ability to entertain differing points of view. Any
such emotional outburst could destroy his relationship with an administrator or
students working with him.
Jon l.evenson
I Jon l.evenson is consistantly aimed with lads and figures about issues. Levenson
shows a genuine interest in students and student concerns. He can sense what issues arc
important to students and can interest others in them, l.evenson believes that students
and administrators can be persuaded with good ideas, but has the capacity to bo firm,
and seek less conventional routes, if the situation warrants such tactics.
l.evenson knows his stuff, but sometimes has trouble relating what he knows, lie
often wanders from the subject at hand. This factor could hurt his effectiveness.
SA has been spending too much of its resources internally; students have little
respect for SA and few feel it represents them.
The Vice Presidential Nominees
Jeff Hollander is a capable student representative. He is knowledgable about the
inside workings of SA. Hollander displays a primary interest in pursuing projects
which could benefit the entire university. However, the goal of his projects would
interfere with the operations of the vice president.: administration in the office and
internal and external relations. Hollander seems dedicated to follow through on his
projects without the office. In general, Hollander has only shown that he can react; he
docs not originate action.
Hollander will do little as vice president that wouldn't otherwise happen, while Gary
Parker will be willing to pursue with enthusiasm the less glamorous duties of a Vice
President and yet be active in all respects.
Gary Parker is energetic, and he fuses that energy together with fresh ideas and can
communicate them to students and administrators. He has an educational background
that will aid in understanding the facts and figures that involve the administration of
the office. Though he is not familiar with the internal workings of SA, Parker would
learn quickly the details of SUNYA and SA politics.
The AS/'sees Gary Parker as best suited for the vice presidency because it is more
probable that Parker will successfully create and accomplish than it is that Hollander
will add something significant and new to SA.

According to CURE, before Albany's requirements were dropped, a growing number
of faculty were becoming "tired of havingtheir
lower-level courses turned into mock-courses
by 'dcadwood'." Perhaps by "deadwood" the
faculty meant those humanities and social
science majors who are afraid of the figuring
and memorization they associate with the
science and math area. Or maybe they were
referring to those math and science students
who fear the ordeal of writing papers and
plowing through exhaustive reading lists.
Whomever they meant, distribution requirements were evidently not accepted as the
way lo correct this problem.
Yet we must find ways to foster liberal learning at this university. The Program Evaluation Committee's suggestion that there be a
review of the whole undergraduate experience
is a good one. But such a study will not uncover meaningful ways to realize the goal of
liberalizing learning here if it fails to disavow
outdated notions. It is at best inconsistent for
the Program evaluation Committee to
propose the new requirements before the
<tudy it suggests is undertaken. Such a study
might take several directions.
On March 12, the Albany Student Press
reported that the Dean of Undergraduate
Studies had spent $1,900 developing the study
to gauge the extent of undergraduate course
distribution. Reportedly, the "whole project
annually costs on the order of $600-700."
Rather than merely quantifying the lack of
well-roundedness, a more constructive approach would aim at determining just what

Indeed, one of the beauties of SUNYA is that
undergraduates can shape a course of study as
traditional or as avant garde as they please..
How can anyone be well-rounded who hasn't
learned to choose wisely'.'
In its report, the Program Evaluation Committee refers to findings by the Office of Undergraduate Studies that there is a lack of
well-rounded ness among undergradatcs.
Reportedly, English majors who began as
freshmen at Albany and graduated in 1975
took only about six percent of credits in
science and math. At the same time physics
and chemistry majors took only about five
percent of credits in social science. Under the
proposed distribution requirement these
students would have to take seven and one half
percent of credits, respectively—a small
difference.
But apparently, the Program
Evaluation Committee finds it inadvisable to
impose a stricter requirement that would
change things significantly. Why rely on requirements at all?
, and chemistry student*. Why did' ,tft<M"English majors take the math and science
courses they chose? The results of this study
would alert departments to the types of
courses they should be deviling to attract
students from other majors and other
divisions. Perhaps departments are already
working in this direction as low enrollments
mean reduced resources. But, of course, the
real goal is to encourage liberal learning
In Utopia Sir Thomas More describes how
members of a perfect society do things. "Not
merely do 'hey discourage crime by punishment but t.iey offer' honors to invite men to
virtue." Inthis spirit honorary societies such a
Phi Beta Kappa already "invite" students to
select a, broad choice of courses. All condidates are screened not only for high grades
but for breadth of study as well. The university
should find other ways to honor students who
take it upon themselves to complete a wide distribution of courses.
If we gave it enough thought, we could
probably come up with several more ways of
encouraging liberal learning. CURE suggests
that the undergraduate bulletin list a
recommended course distribution for students
who are undecided on a field of study or who
wish to pursue a course of liberal arts and
sciences in addition to their major. Academic
advisement, soon to be restructured, should
provide encouragement and information
along these lines.
We at the State University at Albany should
view freedom of choice as an avenue to liberal
learning. Ultimately, the student who is forced
to take unwanted courses won't be any better
rounded that the student who didn't take the
courses at all. Rather than inspiring a love of
liberal learning, a distrubtion requirement is
more likely to encourage students to cut
acadmcic corners. Alternatives exist, but they
have yet to be explored. The proposed
regulations are reminiscent of the days when
dormitory curlews and the prohibition of
alcoholic beverages characterized campus life.
That's no way to greet the next group of
freshmen, the Class of 1980.

The Program Evaluation Committee of the
University Senate's Council oh Educational
Policy has recommended the reinstitution of
distribution requirements. Its proposal calls
for a minimum distribution of nine credit
hours in humanities and arts, nine hours in
natural sciences and mathematics, nine hours
in social and behavioral sciences, and six
hours in analyticskill development (languages
and logics).
.••X:...
This proposal ought to be defeated.
Somewhere along the line, liberal learning
and distribution requirements have become
confused with each other. The idea that the
university aids liberal learning by piling on requirements is preposterous. Requirements
don't affect students already takinga wide distribution of courses. And for others, requirements probably make liberal learning
seem like some sort of punishment. As the
Program Evaluation Committee report notes,
"the goal of liberal learning requires a
review of the whole undergraduate experience."
The undergraduate experience at SUNYA
has not included distribution requirements for
five years. In that time Albany has taken the
lead among the four university centers in attracting high quality undergraduates.
Binghamton, BuffaloandStonyBrook all havedistribution requirements. Albany's refusal to
dictate adistributionof courses is most likely a
factor in the university's abiltiy to boast that
its freshmen's Scholastic Aptitulde Test scores
arc the third highest in New York. Only
freshmen at Columbia and Cornell have
higher scores.
f ulfilling but .which also gnaws away at the
amount of time and attention he can devote to '
a different area of study which truly interests
him."
If CURE is correct, a student who must be
forced to take a course in a required area will
expand his search for courses with the least
work, and for instructors best known for laxity in grading. In effect, requirements move us
farther away from the ideal system in which
the student chooses a course based on its intrinsic value.

'Shadows'
Tatum O'Neal's Father
Is Not On This Record
by Brace Coaoolly
The music in Stanley Kubrick's A
Clockwork Orange leaped at your
attention. Partially this isdue to its
basic familiarity, even to the nonclassical 'listener—anybody who's
ever been near a TV set has heard the
"William Tell Overture" and
highlights from Beethoven's 9th.
Even the harrowing Walter Carlos
excursions are accessible enough to
stimulate a pop type of recognition
factor, the music possessed a gripping, almost oppressive force of its
own that sometimes exceeded the
visual impact of the action on the
screen. It tore into your consciousness only a little less viciously
than it tore into Little Alex's.
Visually and musically Barry Lyn</OMis infinitely more subtle. There's
a ghostly insubstantiality there. Its
elegant picture-book beauty is so
dream-like and ephemeral that
there's little to get a firm grip on.
Where Clockwork Orange was a
movie of sounds, Barry Lyndon is a
movie of light.
The same music that works so inconspicuously on the screen
becomes striking when set off on
record. While the tone of the movie
is set by Handel's onimous
"Sarabandc," the narrative theme
that appears four times here, the
Chieftains dance off with the soundtrack album. Their traditional Irish
music hums with a vitality that
creates an interesting contrast to the
formal precisions of the Baroque
and Romantic selections.
Misty, troubling, "Women of
Ireland" is simply one of the most
beautiful songs ever recorded. From
the pure solitude of its fiddle intro,
the Byronic melancholy of the song
broadens and deepens as flute, harp,
uilleann bagpipes, and tin whistles
are layered on. Later the song resurfaces as a harp solo. Even stripped
down it loses none of its emotional

intensity.
Dancing along at the other end of
the spectrum is the rowdy "Piper's
Maggot Jig," highlighted by the
crazed walloping of the bodhran, an
ancient drum-like instrument.
Anybody with half an ear should be
tickled to know that Island Records
has just released four of the five
Chieftain's albums here.
With some coaching from Dr.
Richard Halsey, who's just completed what his colleagues in the
Library Science Dept. describe as
the definitive work on classical
sound recordings, • I can report that
Kubrick's selections—Mozart,
Schubert, Vivaldi, Bach—are
generally high caliber performances
of top quality, highly accessible
works. Classical fans may not appreciate hearing their operas

but still it's an intricately constructed

The film is set in the Carpathians

pains that arc the basics of the

their fates are sealed, but as in
Shakespeare's tale, the art is in the
telling.
We are confronted with all the
sights and sounds of these people.
The camera work is dazzling. Each
frame can be savoured. They retain
the illusion of spontaneity, of
naturalism, yet they must surely
have been laboured over intensely.
We do not merely witness a storm, or
a feast, or a death; we are a part of
them. Thetrackingshotsare dizzying
in their speed and expansiver.ess.
The close-ups are unaffected; they
are expressive.
Shadows has surely the finest
musical score since Prokofiev's
music for Alexander Nevsky. Its
mixture of religious chants, folk
music and even jarring atonal music
are all mixed to intensify the visual
experience. Indeed, thcl'ilm'scxpansiveness barkens back to Eisenstein.
In such scenes as Ihe funeral procession across the snowy mountains, it
becomes evident that I'arjanov has
learned his lesson well from the late

New Haven Sweeps Batmen
by Mike Pltkuiki
Well, that's what happens when
you play a Division II college team
that has four of the top ten hitters in
the country. You lose. But although
the varsity baseball team lost 13—5
and 8—1 to New Haven Saturday,
they have nothing to be ashamed of.
With the doubleheader sweep of
the Danes, the Chargers now sport a
20—2 record on the spring circuit
while Albany drops to5 — 9. •
Inthe first game, the Danes struck
quickly. Paul Nelson led it off with a
ground ball to second that was
booted, and then advanced to second on a Markowit/. sacrifice. One
out later, Jeff Breglio singled him in
and it was 1—6. Consecutive singles
by Mike damage and Murk Fuchs
plated the second run. and the Danes
seemed to he off and running.
But two Chargertallies inthe hottome of the frame cooled them off in
a hurry. A three-run second and a
singleton in the third put New Haven
up by four.
Albany was able to cut it tothree,
however, in their half of the fourth,
when John I race and Mark Constantino combined for two hits and a run.
It was to no avail. A seven-run ex-
plosion by the hosts in the bottom of
the fourth put the game out of reach,
and put-Albany starter Roger Plantier out of the game. The big blow in
the inning was u bases-loaded Texas
League bloop over second by Tim
Young that cleared the bags.
The hit itself drove in one and a
wild throw plated the other two.
'That was the big play," said Albany
coach Bob Burlingumc. "Mark.
[Fuchs] missed it by about a foot and
instead of getting out of the inning,
they scored three runs on us. It was a
hcartbrcuker."
Two Danes runs in the sixth,
driven in by Breglio and Iruce, proved academic as the visitors suffered
their seventh loss ol the spring. Two

The second game. Tor all intents
and purposes, ended after the first
frame when New Haven tallied lour
limes. A single runinthesecond and
a three-run inning in (lie third iced it.
Charger's starter, Tom Miehalczyk, meanwhile, had the Danes
eating out of his hand. When they
finally broke the shutout in the top
of the seventh, the game was long
since decided.
John Craig began it by reaching
on an infield error. A walk to Mike,
Melzer andasinglcby Fuchs to leftfield did the damage.
Michalcyzk allowed only four hits
arid walked just two Danes in recording the victory. Craig, who pitched
the first four, was saddled with the
loss while his replacement (Melzer)
pitched two scoreless frames.
Silverman Leads Club
With approximately half the spring season gone second baseman Jeff
Silverman leads the club with a .480
batting average on 12 hits in 25 at
bats. Shortstop John Craig is second
hitting at a .432 clip (19 for 44).

Stickmen Bow to Geneseo 15-6
by Craig Bell
The Albany State varsity lacrosse
team dropped their second game of
the year Saturday, as they were
bombed hy the Geneseo Blue
Knights 15—6.
It was a long and frustrating afternoon for the Danes as they were
hobbled by injuries, and missed two
early one on one situations.
With Albany on top by a 3—I
score, the Danes came down the field
and twice missed the cage all alone
with the goalie. Joc"Moon" Mullins
then injured his ankle and that just
added to the woes of the depleted
troops caused by the absences of
Craig Roberts and Kevin Brown.
With all this the Danes still
managed to hang in there and trailed
6 - 3 at the half.
The second half was a different
story. With the rain pouring down
and penalties forcing the Dunes to
play a man down for most of the
half, Albany was outscored 9—3.
"They were a very big and physical
learn," said Albany varsity lacrosse
coach Bill i Fowler after the game.
"They were able to run three midfields and wc were just not able to
stay with them physically. In addition the way the refs treated us, and
being forced to play in a continual
downpour really exasperated our
ballplayers."
Jay Kianka opened the scoringfor
Albany with Terry Brady picking up
the assist. Then it was Tom Grasiosc
from out front and then Kianka's
turn again.For Kiankait was number
six of the year. Aaron Berg added
two goals and Bill Uarlholomae got
his first of the year to close out the
scoring for Albany. Terry Brady
picked up three more assists giving
him a total of sixteen this year.

Council Appropriates
$9,800 From Surplus
After a stormy nine-hour session,
Central Council voted lo appropriate $9800 from the Athletic
Advisory Board Surplus, and added
a $9800 income line, to the Intercollegiate Athletics Budgcl for 197677.
Student Association President Andrew Bauman advanced numerous
arguments against any appropriation from the surplus, citing fat in the
AAB Budget proposal recommended by Athletic Finance Committee,
its failure to remain within the
guideline of $ 130,000 to be generated
by mandatory lax, and use of the
surplus funds for a future construction,
Proponents of using the surplus
funds countered
Ituumau's
arguments with claims of their own,
saying he had devoted little timclou
real investigation of the 'fat', and the
detrimental effect such cuts would
have on the program as a whole.
Nathan Salam moved lo increase
the budget by $19,837(the difference
between the funds generated by
mandatory tax, and the $149,837
budget proposed by AFC, hut this

surplus and $9800 in income, but I his

home events.
It was defeated
overwhelmingly.
Later, after Council appeared
deadlocked on the issue, Salant

The FSA Board of Directors approved a four per cent cash rebate to
meal plan students in a meeting
Wednesday.
Although a non-profit organization, FSA will reach an expected
profit of $300,000 forthis fiscal year,
according to corporation president
Stu Klein. Surpluses have been
building up in ihc corporation over
the last three years.
FSA general manager Norbcrl
Zahm said the four per cent rebate
figure was arrived at by examination
in general terms of what would be
left over in quad and miscellaneous
business at the end of the year. The
result was approximately $165,000,
or four per cent of board.
Klein said, "Tlicfour per cent was
arrived at by taking the expected
total profit from food service, which
would he about $295,000." He said,
"We took out of that $75,000to pay
for such things as Mohawk Campus
and other program items." Of the
remainder, $165,000 will go fpr
rebates and the balance will be added
to FSA's stabilizing cushion.
The FSA Priorities Committee
met Monday to discuss usage of the
excess. Two recommendations were
proposed: cash rebates to students
and to work something out with next
year's budget.
Apparently, when drawing up the
1975-1976 budget, the majority of
last year's Board of Directors assumed the inflationary trend would continue at its past rate. An 8'^ per cent
board increase was, after some dissension, voted in.
Inflation has since slowed down,
and fond prices have fallen. In addition to this, whereas a decrease in the
number of students on meal plan was
anticipated, there was an increase.
Guest business, according to
Zahm, has risen by 50 per cent, and
special functions have increased by
15 per cent.
It was suggested, at the Priorities
meeting, that the money be used to
raise food quality, by purchasing
better food. SA Vice President Rick
Meckler pointed out that as food
preparation would remain the same,
the increase in quality would be
negligible.
A portion of the 1976-1977 budget
WPBaoeUhdecUed
has been designated for improvement of the quality of next year's
food, in way of new kitchen equipment, for instance. Money is also being allocated for improvement of the
Rathskcllar.
Zahm said there were difficulties
to be encountered inthe giving of the
rebates. Of major concern was
whether rebates should be prorated
accordingto meal plantypc, or given
as a flat rate. Other considerations
were the administrative costs involved in mailing 5,500 checks, and
to whom, student or parent, the
rebates should be sent.
"As far as administrative costs,
they're not too much," said Klein. Clockwise from top left: Jon Levenson, Steve DlMeo, Gary Parker and

Students Admitted To Cut PhD's
by Betty Stein
In direct defiance of the State
Education Commissioner's orders,
SUN YA is now admitting students
into the disputed English and
History Ph.D. programs.
Ewald Nyquist, who in December
directed the university to suspend
admissions because these programs
did not meet up to SED standards,
has been taken to court by the SUN Y
Board of Trustees to determine if he
has the power to do so.
If SUNY loses, SED attorney
Robert Stone says "Anyone who
entered the programs subsequent to
dc-rcgulation . . . could not earn a
degree from (SUNYA)."
But that's been taken care of.
Plans have already been worked
out with SUNY Buffalo for the
newly-admitted students to finish
their doctoral studies there, if the
court rules in Nyquisl's favor.
In a letter to SUNY Chancellor
Ernest Boyer dated March 30,
Emmctt Fields talks about this plan:
"in the unlikely event that the litigation initiated by SUNY challenging
the validity of the Commissioner's
action is unsuccessful," President
Fields writes, "wc have worked out a
contingency plan with SUN Y at Buffalo for the granting of degrees to
students admitted to our programs."
This was confirmed by Buffalo's
Associate Provost for Graduate
education." Wc made this agreement
in December," said Murray
Schwartz, "but it was an informal
one (then)."
When asked if Buffalo is the only
other university center involved in
the plan, Schwartz said, "we haven't
heard of any other case."
In the same letter, Fields urges
thut "no publicity be given to the
plan at this time," an attitude echoed
by SUNYA Vice President for
Reseurch Louis Salkevcr.
"Wedon't want to publicize that,"
he said, when asked about the plan.
"Someone might try to stop us."
Nyquist, however, claims he has
no such ideas: "We're not going to
do anything about that," he said
when reached at home last night.
Nyquist was reluctant to discuss
the issue, and would only confirm
that an injunction is being sought to
prevent SUNY from disobeying his
orders.
But this decision can only be made
after the State Supreme Court has
heard both sides, which could take
weeks—or months.
In the meantime, it appears that
the SED is powerless to act. "Since it
is in court there arc no concrete steps
wc can take," said spokesperson
Byron Conncll.
Another article of the agreement
stales that those employees retrenched and not otherwise working within
SUNY "shall be offered reemployment."
What determines "the same or
similar position" is what remains lo
he decided.
Most Qualified
SUNYA Personnel Director Leon
Calhoun maintains that his job is to
hire the most qualified person
available. He said, "Wc have to
match up u professor's specially with
the skills a vacancy requires."
Calhoun made reference to the
part of a contract article which culls
for special consideration, "provided
SA presidential candidate Jon
Levenson conceded defeat to Steve
DiMeo early this morning, making
an expected run-off election unnecessary.
After the votes were counted,
DiMeo with 37 per cent and Levenson with 33 per cent were faced with
another round of balloting.
From his campaign headquarters
in the Wellington Hotel, Levenson
said, "Steve DiMeo simply got more
votes."
Jay Miller ran third with 25 per
cent of the vote, while Matt Kaufman trailed the field with 5 per cent.
Gary Parker will face DiM.'°' s
running mate, Jeff Hollander, in a
run-off for SA Vice President.
Parker won a plurality, 851 votes to
Hollander's 828, but sixty-eight
write-in voles prevented a majority.
In other election results, Dianne
Pichc and Kathy Baron were voted
SASU delegates and mandatory student tax passed 1193 to 772.
Levenson said, "Rather than going through a long, drawn-out campaigning process, whe're personality
would be the only topic, 1 feel my
campaign proved sufficient to bring
out previously ignored but important issues."
About the campaign, DiMeo said,
"The most important issue was
credibility." He said, "I think SAwill
muintain credibility and I'm optimistic about the outcome of our
next administration."
Full election results will appear in
Tuesday's edition of the Albany Student Press.
Nursing Reprieve Given No Hope
by Daniel Gaines
SUNYA's plan for cuts and
reallocations wus approved this
week by SUNY Chancellor Ernest
Boyer, us expected. The approval,
given in a letter to President Emmett
Fields, quashed last-minute hopes
that the politically popular School of
Nursing would by spared.
Boyer's decision means that there
will be no change in Fields' Task
Force plan. Barring unexpected
developments, the plan will
eliminate seven doctoral, five
master's and eight bachelor's
programs at SUNYA.
Boyer's decision came later than
expected, causing some to speculate
that Nursing might be saved."Inthis
educational system, the longer
things take," said Assembly Higher
Education Committee spokesman
Ira Rubenslein, "the more optimistic
they look."
"I think it's wrong," said Landes
about the Nursing cut, but he indicated that Boyer had felt that to
stay at Albany the program needed a
graduate component, and for that
there wasn't enough money.
that a suitable position for which the
employee is otherwise qualified is
available."
Gary Weslervclt, a member of
Albany UUP's Article 35 Committee, says that the university had
previously acknowledged an individual's abilities by originally hiring them. He feels that the administration's interpretation of
"same or similar" is too narrow.
Too Selective
Mar: a agreed that the rehiring of
retrenched employees has been too
selective. Hesaid,"The management
has the view thai they can be very
specific." UUP's'posltion Is that u
professor should be hired to teach
courses in his general field, "even if
it's in a different department,"
Calhoun characterizes the current
rehiring policy as fair. He said
retrenched employees are informed
of vacancies fifteen days before the
position is publicly advertised. He
claims, "Except for one or two, the
retrenched have not possessed the
experience in specialized ureas,"
Proper Definition
Westervclt says it is SUNY Central's responsibility to arrive at u
proper definition for "special consideration." He feels it is the "ethical
and legal obligation" of the administration to rehire retrenched
employees wherever possible.
UUP
hy Paul Rosenthal
The United University Professions'
contract with SUNY and New York
State provides for "reemployment in
the same or similar position" for
those retrenched because of financial
conditions.
Thai clause and the SUNYA administration's alleged misinterpretation are at the center of a controversy
between UUP und the administrators.
Albany UUP President Bruce
Marsh cited what he called, "two
seperatc articles [of Ihc contract]
which are frequently confused." One
calls for "special consideration" for
placement of retrenched employees.

Landes didn't think the legislature
should intervene on behalf of Nursing. "This is not a pattern," hesaid,
"the unversity [SUNY] has been
responsive to legislative feeling."
Boyer said in his letter that
"SUNY's network of nursing education programs in conjunction with
other higher education institutions
will be adequate to meet the present
and emerging needs of the profession."
SUNYA's Nursing program
believes administrators have "failed
to recognize the role of the baccaluriale nurse in our society," according to Anne Rudolph, an
Associate Professor.
