a week early, paying their own expenses, and have played two scrimmages to date. The Danes defeated
Fulton-Montgomery by a score of 20, and played three halves against
Marist on Saturday, winning the
scrimmage 7-1.
The high-powered offense made
its appearance in the Marist game.
This same offense scored 58 goals
last year, 19 more than any Albany
team ever scored. There are two
scrimmages left in the preseason:
Wednesday afternoon at 4 p.m.
against a good Ulster Community
College team, as well as a Saturday
quadrangular scrimmage (Williams,
Castleton, and St. Lawrence) at 1
p.m.
The team has some standout
players returning, but the netminders are young. Two freshmen,
Alberto Giardano and Dario Rango
are the goalkeepers, and Schieffelin
describes their play as excellent.
Leroy Aldrich, a two time all-stater,
as well as Johnny Rolando and
Arthur Bedford are players with a
shot at-AII-State.
Frank Selca, All-State last year,
and the second leading score r in the
state last year (19. goals and 10

first preseason game as well as two
goals against Marist on Saturday.
Last year, Selca broke the single
season scoring record at Albany.

Munsey Worried Over Harriers
by Mike PlekanU
"I'm scared to death. We've lost so
many guys and as for our new
arrivals, we haven't seen them in action yet." For Albany cross country
coach Robert Munsey, this kind of
preseason analysis is a new experience.
Since 1962, when Munsey first
became Albany's cross country mentor, the team has not had a losing
season. They came closest last year
when they finished with a 6-4 dual
matt record—by virtue of winning
their last five contests. Witha Uyear
overall slate of 126-28, Munsey has
hardly learned what it is to lose here.
But unless something, or
someone, turns up in a hurry,
Munsey will have his hands full trying to keep his perfect winning
record intact. No less than three of
last year's top seven runners are not
returning; including Most Valuable
Runner last year, Carlo Cherubino;
winner of seven of nine races.
Cherubino has graduated but the
other two non-returners have other
reasons. Fred Kitzrow is working
and cannot compete this year and
number four runner in 197S, Keith
Benman, has declined to come out
because he has decided to work out
on his own. "I don't know why he
quit," said Munsey, "But 1 guess he
has his reasons".
In any case, his loss will definitely
be felt. "I'm distressed and unhappy
by his decision. He's left a tremendous hole and whether or not we can
fill it, 1 don't know."
Nevertheless, Munsey does have a
"fairly solid nucleus" to work with.
His hopes will probably revolve
around Chris Burns, Brian Davis,
Eric Jackson, Tom Ryan, and Ken
Burnett. Only Burns and Jackson
arc seniors. Burns, incidentally, was
number two behind Cherubino last
year while Davis was ranked third.
(The rankings are computed by
dividing the runner's number of
races entered by the total number of
points he has compiled—i.e. three
points for a third finish in a race).
According to Munsey, Jackson
has improved considerably this year.
"He's a lot better this year; he's got
the confidence. The last meet of the
year he went down to the ICAAAA
Meet (in New York City) and came
in 25th out of 202 entrants. The first
25 make AI1-IC4A. He's not goingto
be another so-so runner."
This year there arc 21 other candidates out for the ten cross country
positions and twelve of the hopefuls
are freshmen. "I'm pretty tickled
With it," Munsey asserts. "We also
have a couple of seniors trying out
for the first time," .
In addition to the first five, there
are "about five or six people who can
slip on to the varsity," explains the
coach. Junior Mark Dalton is one of
them.
According to Munsey, he's "as

Schieffelin Describes Squad As 'Most
Talented Team Ever to A
State'
bytteaKarts
The Albany State soccer team
kicks off its season on Tuesday,
September 14, against NGAA Division 1 runner up champion Southern
Illinois University. Coach William
Schieffelin describes this game as the
highlight of the season, and if the
weather holds up, a crowd of
between 3-10 thousand spectators
are expected. Admission will be
charged, $2 adults, SI children, and
student tax card bearers will be admitted free.
Schieffelin describes this year's
team as "the most talented team ever
at Albany State, with fifteen returning letterman out of a squad of
eighteen''. But it will have a tough
schedule. Besides Southern Illinois,
State will meet NCAA Division III
runnerup Brockport, as well as
tough SUNYAC teams from Cortland and Oneonta. The only tentative date an the schedule is the October 16 contest versus Hamilton.
In preparation for the tough
schedule, the soccer players came up
VOLUDI1MO f t
whose prospects look good. "He was
our swing man last year between the
varsity and junior varsity and then
we moved him up to the varsity in the
middle of the season. He's been running all summer anf he's got a pretty
good shot at the varsity."
Senior Phil Sullivan is also on the
"possible" list. "He ran track last
year. He's been a little overweight
the last few (track) seasons but he's
got a shot at it."
"Leading the pack of newcomers
is a freshman, Matt Williams," says
Munsey. Williams comes from
Highsenville, a town near Wappingers Falls, and Munsey has hud
his eye on him for n while. To make a
long store short, according to
Munsey: "he's here and boy am 1
happy!"
Tradiitonally, the cross country
team has a preseason race around
Perimeter Road early in the practice
week, and Williams won it this year.
It was "a humid day and the times
were really awful," said Munsey. But
he does not take it away from
Williams and his hopes on the
freshman remain high.
Other notable candidates include
senior Roger Miller and freshman
Joe Kcinhurt. "It's strange, two
freshmen and a senior," mused the
couch.

WASHINGTON (AP) President Ford faces a key foreign policy decision on
whether to veto a Vietnamese bid for United Nations membership. While not
ruling out the possibilty of a U.S. abstention when the vote comes up Friday,
officials suggest that American dissatisfaction with Vietnam's policy toward
U.S. servicemen listed as missing in action probably will lead loan American

Mao's death also comes amid a.
call in the Chinese press to step up
the campaign to criticize Teng
Hsiao-ping, former vice premier,
who was ousted earlier this year.
Some factional squabbles have
been reported recently, with contending grc ,ps using the anti-Teng
campaign to criticize their foes.
Given the short and inconclusive
five months Hua has been in the
number two spot and the vaulting
ambition of other contenders, the
contest for the chairmanship—the
most powerful job in China—could
escalate rapidly.
This is suggested by the violence
which swept Peking and other major
cities in early April when Teng made
his ill-timed bid to become premier
and was fired by a still vigorous
Mao.
There was no immediate indication who might emerge as successor
to Mao, leader of the People's
Republic since he declared its founding on Oct. 1,1949. Undertheparty
constitution of 1973, the central
committee of 195 members must
choose the chairman.
Number Two Man
Hua, the relatively obscure former
security minister who was made
premier when Mao fired Teng, was
named party vice chairman at the
same time making him China's
number two man.
Hua, 57, is regarded as occupying
a middle ground between the
quarreling radicals and moderates.
But he may not have had time to entrench himself securely at the top.
Among other contenders for
Mao's job are Chiang Ching. 62. a

BUFFALO (AP) A token two-hour school day was instituted today for the
rest of this week in the 56,000-pupil public school system, as members of the
Buffalo Teachers Federation began the third day of their strike. The major
issues in the dispute, according to BTF spokesmen, are restoration ol
program cuts and maintenance of contract language on maximum class sue
and job security. The union is also requesting a 15 per cent wage hike, but has
indicated this is negotiable.
Misconduct; Old Habit at West Point
WEST POINT, N.Y. (AP) They pass alongexam questions at meals. They
lie about attendance. They steal athletic equipment. And, according to
affidavits signed by cadets accused in the U.S. Military Academy's biggest
scandal, they do so with abandon. In the 151 affidavits shown to The
Associated Press on Wednesday, some 60 cadets charge nearly 700 other
cadets with flaunting the honor code by lying, cheating, stealing, fixing cases
before the cadet honor committee and tolerating those activities.

Prison Parole Reform
Students will no longer board these express buses downtown, since
the service has been discontinued.
STORMVILLE, N.Y. (AP) The state's prisoner parole system is fallingshort
of its rehabilitative goals and is in "dire need" of changes in hearings
procedures and eligibility requirements, says state Assemblyman Stanley
Fink. The Brooklyn Democrat, following a four-hour meeting Wednesday
with inmates at Green Haven state prison, said he agreed with many prisoner
criticisms of the parole system. Fink, the chairman of the Assembly Codes
Committee, said inmate demands for earlier eligibility and other parole
reforms were "not outrageous, outlandish or new"

Empire Stakes—A Winner
ALBANY, N.Y, The state's treasury is starting to get some return again
after a lO^-month dry spell—from the much publicized stale lottery. I ickets
in the government's new instant-winner game of chance went on sale
Wednesday. They were the first legal lottery tickets sold in the stale since
Gov. Hugh Carey shut down the lottery last Oct. 22 because of computer and
administrative foul-ups. The new game, dubbed "Empire Slakes," produced
at least two immediate "jackpot" winners. The new lottery is supposed to
produce $60 million for the state's coffers by next March 31. the end of this
fiscal year.
Abusive County Taxation
ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) In a court case which could free counties from
paying for welfare, Erie County lawyers claimed New York State was
"mindlessly imposing abusive taxation" by requiring the county to
contribute to state-mandated welfare programs. County Attorney James I..
Magavern said Eric is a county with a small tax bate and a large number of
welfare recipients. In his appearance Wednesday before the Appellate
division of state Supreme Court, Magavern said the county's one-quartet
share of most welfare programs is "a crushing burden."

Lare said, "Students are often accused of being apathetic. If students

The statewide goal is to register
between 50,000 and 100,000
students. Already; the effort has
succeeded in registering 5,000
students at the University of Buffalo
and 3,000 at Binghamton SUNY
Center.
Last year, NYPIRG helped
register 2,000 students at SUNYA
and the goal for this campaign is
between 2,500 and 3,000.
This drive marks the First time that
the forces of SASU and NYPIRO
have merged on a statewide level.
Dianne Piche, Executive Vice President of SASU, said, "So far it has
worked out very well." She said, "We
should work together more often."
"We're not registering people
because it's the patriotic thing to
do," added Piche. "The bicentennial
is nice, but there's definitely a
political motive," Piche said, "SASU
lobbies for student rights and student voters means political
leverage.".
NYPIRG's views are similar.
"Student's are more socially and environmentally aware of the
problems," said SUNYA NYPIRO
chairperson Kevin Kovacs. "Our
goal is to educate voters and lobby
with enough voters on our side to
change the outcome of elections."
In organizing the voter registration campaign, SASU hosted a
summer conference to train various
school coordinators on election law,
registration procedure and general
organization. SASU, while presently
dealing exclusively with SUNY campuses, is working on similar
progrums with the Independent Student Coalition (ISC) and the City
University Student Senate (USS) in
an effort to achieve the same results
among non-SUNY colleges.
Because most students will not be
home to vole in the elections, the
absentee ballot procedure is an important aspect of the registration
drive. Forms will be made available
to students in the Campus Center
through September 24 to request an
absentee ballot application from
their home county Board of Elections.
To date the SUNYA voter
registration drive has registered approximately 1,000 students for the
up-coming November elections. The
registration drive will be continued
on a door to door basis with
materials also being made available
in the quad dining halls.

FLOOD FACTS
A Belgian Professor hat
somewhat cynically exonerated
Noah and his Ark.
According to Andre Capart,
Director of the Belgian Institute of
Natural Sciences, the great flood
l.lUrtAil
depicted in the Bible and other
religious mythology really did
happen.
Professor Capart says the great
deluge occured around 6500 BC, but
that it did not cover all the Earth.
The flood, Capart says, was caused
when the polar caps suddenly
melted, lifting ocean levels over 150
feet and washing out the coastal
areas of the world.
Capart adds that there were undoubtedly several "clever peasants"
able to gather their families and
belongings in boats around the
world, and that Noah might have
been one of them.
BEATLEMANIA
The privately-financed "International Committee To Reunite The
Beatles" says that money it flowing
in from around the world to be used
to convince John, Paul, George and
Ringo to get back together again.
The Long Island based group, the
brainchild of 28-year-old Alan
Amron, sells memberships in its fan
club for one dollar apiece. Amron
says he hopes to raise a whopping
S50 million to show the four exbeatles that 50 million people want
them back together again.
Amron hopes have all the money
collected by next spring, which is the
10th anniversary of the release of the
Beatles' LP "Sergeant Pepper's
Lonely Hearts Club Band". Each
person who sends in a one-dollar
donation receives an iron-on decal
displaying a "Let It Be" handclasp.

Students, even some of whom take time out
from serious pursuits to read ttua column, are
enraged that they won't be able to go to the
'berry after K) o'clock at night.
I know some of you feel that the library is
the social capital on campus. "Wow, I met this
nice girl on the second floor, studying psych."
Unfortunately, later, when this girl is asked
"Hey, watcha doin' Friday night?", she will
reply "I've got to st udy." So much for interpersonal encounters. And for some good clean
fun, occasionally a book dropping and giggling epidemic will break out to liven up the
evening. What fun.
I have been in the library four times in my
first two yean here, and have found it a very
uncomfortable place. The lights buzz. People
go to the library again and again, despite the
fact that the lights buzz.' But the same people
who choose to endure this buzz, have issued
me some of the coldest stares I everexperienced while I walked through the library whistling The doctors and lawyers of tomorrow
must study today to get into grad schools. The
ruination of a career will be on your head. "My
son would have been a doctor, but someone
was whistling in the library." Mothers all over
the state will sob.
Some may feel I'm getting carried away.
"These are the seventies—students are more
concerned with careers than campus life." I've
actually heard someone say, "They keep the
Rat open late at night but the li brary closes at
10. Boy, the priorities in this school are really
screwed upl" But I guess if someone thinks
they want to be an accountant, they would
rather spend Friday night in t he library than in
the Rat.
Student leaders have comeupwitha course
of action to protest the library situation.
There will be a study-in. Really, students are
going to bring their books to the library and
study. Here's the militant part: When they announce "it's 10:00, everyone leave", no one will
go. They will stay there all night, if necessary,
to prove that late hours at the library are needed.
That's an idea I am behind 1000 %. As a
matter of fact, I think they should go one step
further. Every night of the week, the library
will announce closing at 10. Anyone who wants
to stay, can. But they'll be locked in and must
stay there all night. 1 know 1 won't miss them
late at night at the Rat, or anywhere else.
Senior Sentiments
by Cary Scott Goldinger
Things just aren't the same anymore, at least
that's what I've been told. After all, this is my
senior year at an institution, whoops, institute
of higher learning, and your senior year is
something that you're supposed to reflect
upon with fond memories 30 or 40 years from
now (if you're still around).
I guess I'm a member of a select group of
students that has been at this university for the
entire four year (or longer) sentence that society has imposed upon us. Everyone knows that
to get a good job one needs a good education.
Just ask any college graduate who drives a cab
or works in the post office long enough to
qualify for unemployment. My goodness,
what are we going to do? The only thing we
know how to be are students, and some of us
even have trouble with that. Perhaps some
movie studio will hire us all as extras when
they do the sequel to "The Way We Were".
They'll probably call it something like "The
Way We Were Revisited" and film it on the
Albany campus.
No, things just aren't the same anymore. I
mean the concrete is still there, but after four
years, well, it doens't look all that bad. (I
Jidn't really say that, did I?) Take Sutter's for
instance. My favorite burger joint in Albany
has changed its appearance , but thank
goodness the burgers are still cooked the same
way.Remember the Varsity Inn? Well it's not
there anymore. I haven't been there since
freshman year, but the notion of having Fatso
Fogarty's instead of the VI makes me feela little bit older. Maybe mature is a better word.
The other day in the campus center, a
"younger" member of this university asked me
for directions to her quad, and she called me
"Sir". Now that makes me feel mature. Maybe
older is a better word. Wow, can you believe
what they did to the Rat? It even looks, and
charges, like a real bar now.
No, things really aren't the same anymore.
This is it, my senior year at Albany. After my
release in June, I'm going to go out into the
real tti ' J. All those textbook theories I've
been studying for the past four years won't
apply anymore. We've got to prepare
ourselves for the inevitable. Foreseeing that
difficulties may arise, I've taken a necessary
precaution. I've been keeping up a steady correspondence with someone on the outside
world, someone who has been keeping me
abreast of all current events as they're happening, and someone who has been giving me
some rather good tips on the horses at
Saratoga.
But don't worry. I'm going to share my
knowledge with you. I'm going to help us
make it through these unsteady times. We're
going to escape from this place. We're goingto
make it over that concrete wall.

Discipline and genius,enable both
Fellini and Antonioni t o create und o u b t e d l y the most rich and
vigorous work in the history of the
Italain film. A l l significant film that
is to come f r o m Italy will stem from
these two director's foundations,
And this is where Wertmuller finds
her beginning.
In 1963 Fellini made Lina Wertmuller his assistant director to 8'/i
She soon became bored with this
position and quit, only to i m mediately embark on making a film
about Fellini makingS'A- That same
year, she made, inexpensively, her
first film, The Uzanls, which has
only had a lew showings in the United States. The film made money
which enabled men to make let's
Talk About Men, which is currently
playing in New York City as a first
run feature.
I saw Lei's Talk About Men I his
past weekend. Whoever was responsible for its first run release is taking
everyone for a ride (I paid $4 l o get
In); Let's Talk About Men says absolutely nothing and is one of the
most theatrical and sialic films I
have ever seen.
Once then preliminary works were
over with, Wertmullcr began w i t h
her major works. The Seduction of
Mimi,
Love and Anarchy.
All
Screwed Up, Swept A way, and most
recently Seven Beauties. Their subject matter ranges from an Italian
underground partisan trying to kill
the Duce while hiding out in a
brothel in Love and Anarchy, l o an
arrogant capitalist mistress and her
mistreated manservant shipwrecked
together in a desert island in Swept
A way. There is a charmingexchangc
of glances between two soon-to-be
lovers in The Seduction of Mimi,
and the horror and pity of a concentration camp prisoner escaping the
firing squad by leaping into a pile of
real shit in Seven Beauties.
Her messages encompass much:
love, hate, sex, political injustice and
just about anything one might expect from an Italian soul. There is
both the tragic and the comic, the
profound and the superfluous. There
are touches of Fellini here and there,
some obvious, others a little more
subtle. One may even detect a neorealist passage. Her characters one
minute may cry, the very next m o ment burst into outrageous laughter
In Seven Beauties the balance
between p a i n a n d j o y is precariously
thin.

Alumttf House:
esigtt,
Rustic
Situated amongst the trees near the infirmary, the wandering student will likely come
across the newest addition tothe Albany State
campus. It it the Alumni House, operated by
the Alumni Association, and it is truely a sight
to behold.
As one approaches the building, constructed of wood and erected in an A-frame
design, he is reminded of a Swiss chalet, and
the decor inside does little to dispel this impression. To the left is the house's library, not
yet comleted. It is furnished with thick comfortable chairs and with one of the house's t w o
wood burning fireplaces. It was here thai I mil
Gary Jones, an assistant to the Universitv's
Vice President and one of the directors of the
Alumni Association. It is through his kind ami
detailed tour of the house that this article is
possible.
W -1
Alumni house was begun in February til
I97S and was due to be completed six months
later. But, as is common these days, the project
required more than twice that much time and
was not ready for use until the end of Ma*
1976, a mere two duys before it was to host its
first conference. Originally the huilding wast"
have beenfinanccd bythestate, but the budget
squeeze eliminated this source of funds, and
the Association was forced to depend upon
contributions in order to complete the project
Albany's alumni came through when the>
were needed and donuted two thirds oI tinhouse's $270,000 price tag. The remai ndcr was
donated by various power and energy companies interested in the solar heating system
by which the house operates.
The purpose of the house is to provide a
meeting place for various alumni groups who.
up until now have had no place of their own
When not being used by alumni, the house is
open to other groups, either associated with
the University or independents. The house has
a large conference room which can seat up to
120 people, as well as numerous smaller conference rooms which can accommodate up to
20. The house has its own kitchen facilities
which, though modest, are more than adequate to provide for a buffet luncheon. According to Mr. Jones, those groups which have
used the house have been pleased and have
praised it highly. The house is also open to
students looking for a quiet place to chat, oi
who simply wish to sit before one of the cozy
fireplaces on a cold winter night.
The house is a delightful combination ol the
sHfl

traditional and the modern. There is a small
rathskeller with comfortable wooden tables
and chairs and a beamed ceiling which gives
the place a lovely rustic appearance. This is
enhanced by the inlayed stone floor. In contrast with this is the furniture in the large conference room, known as modular furniture.
These are plush chairs which are easily moved
about and, when not in use, fit perfectly
against one wall to form a large couch, and
hence requiring no storage. The chairs were
designed especially for the house and are a fine
convenience.
The Alumni House's most modern and outstanding feature is its solar energy system. It
has gained national recognition and at least
one company, United Slates Plywood of
Tacoma, is publishing numerous articles
about the system in architectural trade
magazines.
The system operates by a series of copper
pipes which run through the ceiling and allow
water through. The sun's rays, passing
t hrough sheets of tough plexiglass which cover
one side of the roof, heat the water as it passes
through the pipes and then send it to one of
two huge tanks underground outside the
house. It is the heat from this water that passes
through the house's ventilating system which
keeps the house warm even on the coldest of
days. According to Mr. Jones, the system has
worked without a flaw since it was put into
operation last March. The solar system
provides the house with all the heat it needs for
about 70%ofthcyear. Duringthosc periodsof
extended cloud cover, the house is forced to
switch over to its standby electrical system.
The house is also equipped with a cooling
system which captures cool air at night for use
during the day, though this has not been nearly as efficient as the heating system.
The various companies which had a hand in
installing the heating system have also built in
sophisticated measuring devices which
monitor the levels of heat throughout the
house. These companies, among them Niagra
Mohawk and The Atmospheric Science
Research Center, will continue to study the
results of the new system for the next two years
in hopes of finding any faults which can be
corrected in future uses of solar heating.
All in all, the Alumni House is a fascinating
building. Students are encouraged to stop by
and familiarize themselves with it. It should
prove to be a rewarding visit.
As one approaches the building,
constructed of wood and erected in an
A—frame design, one is reminded of
a Swiss chalet, and the decor inside
does little to dispel this impression.

At long as you've got no qualms
about letting your moving parts take
control over the whole show now
and then, you won't have any trouble
operating in the same space-time
continuum as the Buckeye
Politicians. Look At Me Now ii their
debut album, and despite, the standard proclamation concerning their
soul-rending search for uniqueness,
it's
about

l.ina Wertmuller has tried very
hard in relating her messages
through the medium of the motion
picture. John Simon, in a recent
review of Seven Beauties, says of
Wertmuller "she is the most important film director since Bergman."
Although Simon usually exaggerates his praise for any good
narrative, he is partially correct in
his praise. Wertmuller is a total filmmaker: she has shown a masterful
awareness of the cinema's resources.

show us she is well within a mature

Despite hustcful praise from

she must be appreciated for what she
does best, and that is her use of the

She is giving them to us through a
different pair of camera eyes, and an
appealing excellent pair at that.
Audio and video technicians armed with the electronic tools of their
trade clamored through the room
and into the President's office. I
followed them in and looked about
the office for Fields. He was gone.
White hot photographer's lights
cut through the grayness of the office, burning away the calm that had
pervaded the place earlier. The
President slipped from amongst the
crowd of reporters and out under the
shower of light focused on the corner
of the room. Cameras clicked away
and papers rustled as the President

awaiting him. Then, with a thin stack

It doesn't even matter that the
lyrics of the Buckeye Politicians
come slurping straight out of The
Young People's Guide to the
Aquarian Age cause these guys are
so tight they probably used to be
Siamese twins. I can sec them churning out immaculate sets that leave

The vocalists all tend to be gruff,
which isn't the same as gritty. On a
bandstand their singing could be
buried under waves of rhythm
guitars, but on record it'saweakness
that's awkwardly obvious. And
because some of the Buckeyes play
llugelhorns and stuff, Ihey can't
resist the temptation lo limp through
a couple of shameful Chicago-like
Ip's
such as Lynyrd Skynyrd, Charlie
Daniels, The Allman Brothers, The
Outlaws and Marshall Tucker. Unfortunately the south has also
produced many people who try to
capitalize on the success and popularity of the southern sound. These
people are easily distinguishable
from the original southern bands by
their attempts to inject a small
amount of each band's style into
their own songs.
One such artist is Steve Young,
whose new album,"Renegade
Picker," contains a few good songs,
some fair songs and some bad songs,
all of which lack originality. The
only thing that pulls some of the
songs through is the strong instrumental backing of Young's
Nashville sidemen.
The first song, "Renegade
Picker," is memorable only because
of the excellent lead and slide guitar
interplay throughout the song. "/
Can't Be Myself," "Old Memories"
and "It's nol Supposed to Be Thai
Way" arc all slow country songs
dominated by Buddy Emmons' fine
steel guitar playing. "Tobacco
Road," a song made famous by
Edgar Winter, is one of the better
songs on the album because of the
outstanding harmonica work of
Terry McMillan and Mac (iayden's
sweet slide fills. The rest of the album
follows in this style, with Steve
Young's sidemen providing the best
elements in each of the songs.

Of the multitude of womenwhoin
ancient Greece plied the trade of a
hetaira only a few gained fame.
Thais of Athens became the mistress
of Alexander the Great (Classical
Forum April 2, 1976), and Lais of
Corinth granted her favors to
Diogenes the Cynic. At least equal
to these two in fame was Phryne.
All three lived in the second half of
the fourth century B.C.
Phryne came to Athens from
Thcspiac in Hocotia. She was widely admired for her beauty but also
considered dangerous—not an uncommon combination. A comic poet
likened her lo Charybdis, the
mythical monster that together with
Scylta, ruins ships and men. It is apparent that she possessed not only
beauty but also intelligence and
pride.
When Phryne was brought to trial
on a charge of profanation, her
defense was undertaken by the distinguished orator Hyperides. When
he felt that he was about to lose the
case and his client about to be condemned, he suddenly lore off her
dress, revealing the beauty of her
bosom. Phryne was promptly acquitted, bui the Athenians expressly
forbade that son of thing in future
cases.
Phryne also created quite a stir at
the Festival of Poseidon on the
island of Acgina. This festival concluded with theaphrodlsia, an occasion to which hetairai were especially
invited. In the sight of all the people.
Phryne took off her cloak, let down

After the destruction of Thebes by
Alexander the Cireal in 335 B.C.,

the walls of the city, provided only
that a plaque should' read:

probably means no more than that
Phryne had become quite wealthy.

hostility and many acquired a 'Why do I have
to cooperate—I didn't want to live here' attitude.
Pierce didn't All up because advertising was
very limited and it hadn't been done before.
People were afraid to try it. The idea just
wasn't sold well. (It is difficult to sell
something if you don't know how it works.) It
seems as if all these problems branch off one
another yet no one person or group of persons
is in position to take the blame.
In fact, there is no need to place a blame on
anyone. With all this going against it. Pierce
went well last year. It was a place where you
could enjoy yourself, yet get some work done;
it was fine place to live. Many close
relationships began here and no doubt, many
more will follow. Of the 105 people living here
last year, over 50% are returning (remember
that only 35 people originally requested
Pierce). This shows that a positive community
feeling was sparked here and it is a strong
favorable argument that Pierce was successful
in its first year as alternative residence environment. This argument is second only to
the feelings I have for Pierce Hall, and the excitement with which I look forward to the
coming year.
Pierce is not for everyone, as has already
been determined. Yet for those whochoose it,
Pierce Hall presents the opportunity to experience life in a more realistic frame of mind.

To the Editor:
To the surprise of everyone, (except those
directly involved) ten per cent of the Jericho
High School 1976 graduating class are now
SUNYA freshmen. Why, many ask, would
thirty-four students from the same high school
want to attend the same university'.' Of the
three University Centers, Buffalo was too far
away, Stonybrook was too close, and
Binghamton left many on the waiting list, with
few willing to bide their time until June to see
where they were going to school.
Due to this excessive number of hometown
friends and acquaintances, it has not been extremely difficult for me to meet other students.
In fact, most of the people I've recently met
here, arc the roommates or suitcmates of those
I had previously known. What are all these
people from such similiar backgrounds
(Jericho and non-Jericho alike) doing with
their time?

I have spent several of myevenings listeni ng
to fellow students complain about the lack of
both daytime and after hours activities. Aside
from the beer-drinking parties and the few
dope-smoking gatherings, they claim there is
nothing to do. Personally, I am very content
listening to people try to make conversation;
as many will agree it gets sort of ridiculous
after a while. I am not an exceptionally
talkative person, nor am I greatly inclined to
commence conversations, hut I'm willingto let
others suffer my making them listen to my
slanted views.
Why isn't the recent acquisition of
SUNYA's FM radio station invoking more
discussion? Why aren't the diminished library
hours creating some havoc within the student
body? Why aren't the freshmen, many of
whom will be voting for our next President in
November, arguing over the candidates? And,
finally, why aren't the girls getting their Wl l( A
flag football lineups together?
Hack in Jericho, there were few if any intruguing problems or fascinating activities
which stimulated a marathon discussion or
even an intense conversation. Unfortunately,
many of the dialogues which could be heard
amongst the seniors at Jericho High last year
involved who smashed up their car the worst,
who wtis going to Florida, anil who came hack
with the darkest tan last lime.
In conclusion, I hope that those students
who tire generating an aura of boredom and
non-involvement will in the future be
challenged by how to spend their spare time
most effectively. With such intelligent and
fun-loving people around it's hard to see why
there is such little going on when there is so
much to do. I think we ail have the choice of
complaining about nothing to do or having
nothingtocomplain about,

false points of view
To the Editor:
The University Community should be made
aware that the material pertaining to the
Library in the 1976-77 Viewpoint contains a
mixture of flippant remarks and misinformation. We realize that Viewpoint is an informal,
yet often informative, compendium of campus
information: however, we fail to see the
necessity for characterizing the Library as a
convenient place to sleep, relax, and socialize.
The incoming Freshman class should not be
left with the impression that the Library is a
glorified Hop-house!
Viewpoint's factual presentation is also inaccurate and outdated. For example, the
Learning Resources Center has not been
called the "Curriculum Library" for a number
of years, thegovernment documents have long
since been transferred from the basement level
to the first floor, and there has never been a
"Projecler Room".
We respectfully suggest that before another
edition of Viewpoint goes to press that a
member of its staff consult with the Library's
administrative office in order to determine the
facts. Viewpoint's service to the Universitycan.

parking plight
To the Kditor:
I'd just like to comment on the parking
situation on campus; more specifically, parking on Indian Quad. This Sunday, residents of
Indian Quad woke up to the unpleasurable
sight of parking tickets onjust about every car
parked around the quad. Those that didn't
have the tickets were just lucky or had their
tickets blown away by the morning winds. To
let you know why the students parked there let
me quote the signs that surround Indian
Quad, "Interior Roadway Medical and Special
Parking Only 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mon, thru Fri."
It appears to the reader that parking is permitted at other times not specified. On lop of
this, last semester parking was permitted, if
not by the rules, then by the luck of tickets
issued. I called security Sunday morning and
was told I hat the signs were going to be changed and that parking al any time will he illegal
without a special permit. I was also instructed
that I can appeal the ticket if I care todoso.
What I'd like to ask you, (or anyone else
who's reading this and has anythinglodowith
the parking rules) is why isn't overnight parking on the weekdends allowed on Indian
Quad. There seems to be no reason that parking on Weekends shouldn't be extended to all
students, litis university Is here lor the
students and I feel that, al time, there are people and agencies on campus thai lose sight of
this.

Clarifying The Mission
SUNYA President Emmett B. Fields' proposed mission statement
released this week sketches a clear direction for this university, with
confusing implications. Increased public policy analysis has been the
key of the new direction — but will it open the right doors?
Surely the campus will discuss the mission, but will all the questions it
poses be answered? The administration must spend a maximum amount
of effort to clarify the document and its implications.
•Will the mission damage the essential university function of student
education? Has the educational need of New York's student population
played a major role in the mission's formation? Does the document
reflect such concern?
•How much can we cut back on the diversity of course offerings? Does
the mission mean we should cut back even more than the Task Force
has? The same? Should some programs be reinstated?
•What problems should the school be setting its sights on? What does
public policy mean? Why doesn't the administration release a list of all
the public policy projects that have occured this past year at SUNYA?
•How much will feedback on the document influence its final form?
Will students or faculty be able to change any significant portions of the
document? Or will it seem, in the end, that a Fields plan was rubberstamped?
•Will the faculty be objective, or will they split along "good— it helps
me" and "bad — it doesn't" lines. Will faculty with objections in
departments benefited by the mission stay quiet?
•Will there be any hard, empirical evidence suggesting that the
mission will be beneficial?
•Will care be taken to understand the positions of SUNY Central, the
state government, the people of the state and the local constituencies by
each of the other groups?
•What would be the results of a campus referendum? Is it possible for
the university community to block the plan?
The only chance for all parts of the university to participate in the
formation of the mission (or, for that matter, any important decision) is
for the campus constituencies to discuss and question it seriously,
expecting each other to take the issues seriously, and expecting each
constituency to be respected and its views incorporated or at least
acknowledged in the final product.

property and accessible by a !4mile trail is a SO acre pond for swimming, canoeing and fishing. We provide boats.
Any overnight facilities? We have accommodations for you in four
buildings varying in class from a large 10 bedroom farmhouse with all

Baseball Team'Dependingon the Pitching'
Bollard, DiLello Anchor Mound Corps;
Remaining Starting Slots Up For Grabs
According to the coach, Dollard is
the "big man" of his five-man staff.
"We're usually in every game he
pitches. He won eight game* last
year and that might be a school
record, I don't know."
DiLello, a sophomore, is starting
his second varsity campaign and is
the number two man on the staff.
He impressed Burlingame with his
performance last year and will see
plenty of action along with Dollard.
After those two, however, the coach
is quick to assert; "We don't know
who'll be number three and four."
The possibilities include John
Dawson, up from the j.v., Larry
Robarge, a senior coming out for the
fint time, and Steve Muldoon, also
from the junior varsity. Second-year
man Roger Plantier might do
bullpen work,"
explains
Burlingame," and he might do some
more of that. But we have no big
fireman."
Defensively, the Danes are pretty
well set. Charlie Scheld, a senior,
and freshman Rich Cardillo will
probably be splitting the catching
duties with the loss of last year's
backstop Mark Constantine.
Melzer and Chris Siegler will
share first-base duties while Silverman has a lock on second base. Bob
Cooke and Al Grinaldi, from the j.v.,
should see action at shortstop while
Willoughby will anchor "the hot corner."
In the outfield, sophomore letterman Plantier will be left field, junior
Howie Markowitz will be in center
and either Craig or Gamage will be
around in right. Craig, if not starting
in the outfield, will be used as the
designated hitter.
Albany will be in the Eastern Division of the SUNYACs and will play
each team in its division twice. They
open with Potsdam today and later
face Oneonta, New Paltz and Cortland, all in twinbills. Cortland is the
defending Eastern champ and
Brockport is the defending Western
champion (the Danes do not play
them this fall). The standings work

a victory, minus one for a loss, and,
by Mike FleksnU
"We're certainly not loaded," explains Albany vanity hate bail coach
Bob Burlingame about his fall
squad. "It all depends on the
pitching.''
It's got to. The Albany arsenal is
not well-stocked. In fact, no newcomen have cracked the starting
line-up either from the junior varsity
or through the freshman class.
The brunt of the hitting attack will
fall on Burlingame's "Big Five":
John Craig, Mike Melzer, Jim
Willoughby, Jeff Silverman, and
Mike Gamage. All are seniors and all
have been on the vanity before;
Willoughby for four yean.
Silverman and Craigshould be the
VP Won't Sign Financial ResponsiWity Document
Mg one-two punch,.however. Craig
led the Great Danes in hitting last
year with an overall (spring-fall inclusive) batting average of .326. And
Silverman, who hit over .400 in the
spring, was the only Dane selected
for All-SUNYAC (State University
of New York Athletic Conference).
The graduation of hard-hitting first
baseman Jeff Breglio will not help.
And if the old saying is true that
pitching is about 75 to 80% of the
game, two men in particular will be
feeling that pressure: John Dollard
and Paul DiLello.
Dollard is the "old Man" of the
pitching corps. He is the mainstay of
the staff and has been wearing a varsity uniform for the put three yean.

It appears that Albany's hopes

by Bryan Holzberg
SA Vice President Gary Parker is
refusing to sign a financial accountability document created in a bill
passed by Central Council Wednesday.
The amendment, passed by a vote
of 18-1, reads "signatory officers
[Treasures and Presidents] can be
held personally liable lor any unauthorized expenditure or contract
and for an amount overspent inthcir
budget."
Parker objects to the clause

overspent budgets. Hemovcdtoudd

SA Controller N olan Altman said
"No one has ever paid out of his
pocket for overspending. SA pays,
and monies arc taken out of the
group's budget for next year as
punishment."
Altman said Albany Cumpus
Events overspent last year's budget
by $8,000 and "so we canned the
group this year." He said, "It's just
unlikely an officer would pay."
"What this amendment means,"
Altman said, "is the first thing an officer will do is read SA Finance
Policy and then keep strict books."
Parker said it may scare prospective officers away unless they have

Parker said as it presently reads,
when an officer of a student group

him open to legal actions for any
fiscal problems a group might have.
He thus refused to sign the document.

AMIA: Inside Story
The AMIA (Association of Men's
Intramural Athletics) is governed on
the strength of a newly-revised Constitution that is administered by an
intramural council which meets
every Thursday evening at 6:30 p.m.
in CC-370. The AMIA Council
currently has ten members, but will
admit two more in the coming weeks
and operate for the remainder of the
year at its normal count of twelve
people. (Applications for these
remaining two positions are
available in CC-356.)
The Council makes judgments on
all protests, contrives every policy
change, and institutes all new innovations for the organization. The
current Council membership is as
follows: Michael Curwin (Presid e n t ) , Len Goldman (VicePresident), Don Knapp (Secretary),
Bruce Sheingold (Treasurer), Randy
Egnaczyk (Head Official), Mark
Wechslcr (Student Assistant
Liason), Nolan Altman (Advisor to
the President), Joe Cafiero(Publicity Chairperson), Steve Leventhal
(Minor Sports Chairperson), and
Dennis Elkin (Coordinator of In-
tramural Athletics).
There are three standing committees of AMIA Council. The
Minor Sports committee deals with
all activities with the exception of the
large leagues. These include thrcc•on-three basketball, tennis, wall
sports, wrestling, track and field,
superstars, pinball, and tug-of-war,
just to name a few. The Publicity
committee is in charge of notifying
the student body of all events, which
requires u good deal of manpower.
Finally, there is the Awards committee which has us its tusk the
ordering of trophies, T-shirts, and
other suitable awards for the victorious teams and individuals. These
committees can use the help of any
student who wishes to devote some
extra time to the AMIA.
The members of Council can be
contacted in order to discuss any
AMIA event or provide any service
needed in regard to intramurals here
at Albany. The AMIA Council office is located in CC-355 and is open
daily from 10 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Any
student interested in working for this
year's AMIA can inquire within.
