400th Win Leaves Sauers Smiling
by Paul Schwartz
Even after the game Wednesday
night, he spoke of his team, rather
than himself. Walking out of the
customary post-game meeting, Dick
Sauers allowed his face a satisfied
smile. "They're a good bunch," he
said, motioning to his players as
they headed toward Ihe showers.
"It was great that they could come
through."
His hoarse voice cracked as he
spoke, obviously grained from the
hard night's work. "I think .I'll
have a little champagne — for my
throat," Sauers said, still smiling.
Moments before, Sauers had
stood in fronfof a cheering University Gym crowd, waving, and
beckoning for his family to join him

Einsmann's lay-in with 17:56 remaining put Plattsburgh ahead,
38-37, but Jones' jumper gave the
Danes a lead they would never relinquish. Winston Royal's pull-up
,-v jump shot gave Albany a three
point advantage, and two Joe Jcdnak baskets forced the Cardinals to
call a timeout, trailing 49-42 with
14:01 left. Einsmann's three point
play narrowed the Dane cushion to
60-54, but when Einsmann fouled
out with 1:20 remaining as the
game's leading scorer (23 points),
Albany was in complete control,
66-56.
"Einsmann did 'a great job,"
Sauers said. "We switched to a
zone in Ihe second half to try and
control him. Then we finally got a
little lead in the second half, and we
showed a belter shot selection. They
are a good team, and it was a
typical conference game. Welcome
to the SUNYAC."

in the spotlight. The scoreboard
above showed that his Albany Stale
baskelball squad had defeated Plattsburgh, 70-56, giving Sauers his
400th coaching victory, and
boosting the surprising Danes to
14-2 and 5-1 in the SUNYAC.
Sauers' 25th Albany team is also
ranked fifth in the nation in Division III, the highest ranking in the
school's history.
'I tried to downplay the 400
wins," explained Sauers. "I didn't
want to put pressure on the team. I
didn't want them to worry about it.
Plallsburjjh was cause for con-"
siderable worry themselves."
All week, everybody was thinking about 400," Dane forward Pete
Stanish said. "All week in practice
we knew it was an important conference game coming up, but we
were thinking about Doc."
I'm sure they played with a
great deal of emotion," commented
Plattsburgh coach Norm Law.

A bit of extra emotion didn't hurt
the Danes. Posting two conference
losses already, Plattsburgh realized
that a loss to Albany would severely
damage their post-season hopes,
and the Cardinals played accordingly. Forward Paul Einsmann's three

s U N Y A ' s Marine Midland
Moneymatic machine may finally
become operational by ihe end of
this month, according lo Marine
Midland Senior Vice President Jack
Barnes.
Last week, ihe U.S. Comptroller
uf Ihc Currency approved the
bank's application lor a national
charter, removing ihe bank from
the control of the Slate Banking
Department, said Barnes. "As of
February 1st, Marine Midland is a
national bank," he added.
Murine Midland must now file an
application to o p e r a t e the
Moneymatic machine with the
Comptroller of Currency, rather
than ihc Stale Banking Department, Barnes said. "This will he
done promptly."
The Moneymatic machine, Installed last summer, was originally
scheduled to begin operation on
October 1st. Howevcrr-Hie machine
remained inoperative pending Slate
Banking Deparlmenl approval.
UAS substituted Ihe system lor
its cheek cashing service, as a result
of an annual increase in bad checks,
Ihe University has already received
$20,000 in bad checks this year, an
"all time high," said UAS General
Manager E. Norbcrl Zahin.
Marine Midland Assistant Vice
President Jerry MeClarvey called
Ihe approval "good news".
"Hopefully, within 30 days wc
will be up and going," referring lo
SUNYA's Moneymatic machine.
Barnes and MeClarvey agree thai
the federal authorities will act upon
'the application sooner than Ihe
Ready
Stale Department would have.
Marine Midland filed its application with ihe Deparlmenl last June,
said Barnes. "We didn't foresee
tiny trouble with the Stale Department in gelling the application approved," he added. "The application was never aeled upon."
MeClarvey attributed the Department's inaction lo a "conflicl of Interests" between it and Ihe bank.
Apparently, the Deparlmenl disapproved a proposed merger between,
Marine Midland and Ihe Hong
Kong-Shanghai Banking Corporalion, a liriiish-run company.
Marine Midland has been attempting lo merge with Ihe Corporation for two years, said
McCinrvey. "Marine Midland was
not in the best financial shape," he
said, citing Ihe merger as a source
for increasing capital. The Stule
Deparlmenl apparently deemed the
bank as financially stable, although
il did receive federal support and
approval.
Barnes said Ihc recently approved
National Charier will enable the
Marine Midland Bank lo merge
with Ihe Shanghai. They already
have the required Federal approval,
he said.
MeClarvey said ihe proposed
merger has caused the Slate Deparlmenl lo be uncooperative in other
areas.
He added that oilier banks with
automatic machines, such as ihe
National Commercial's Bank Key,
have received application approval
since Marine Midland requested a
machine for SUNYA.
In addition, oilier campuses with

USSR Stepping On Dissidents
MOSCOW (AP) The Soviet Union stepped up ils campaign
against the nation's dissidents Sunday with a sharp denunciation of Lev Kopelev, a dissident writer widely known in
the West. The 68-ycar-old writer, widely published in the
United Stales and West Germany, was "an enemy of Ihe
socialist system,'" said the newspaper Sovyclskaya Rossiya,
an organ of the Soviel Communis! Party Central Committee. Il did nol say whether any specific steps mighl be laken

American literature. In recenl weeks, Soviel authorities
have exiled dissident leader Andrei D. Sakharov from
Moscow lo Ihe Volga River cily of Gorky. They have laken
into custody several remaining activists in the nation's shattered dissident movement and warned again of punishment
for "renegades" who "consciously damage our sociely."

Despite President O'Lenry's promise to extend present antidiscrimination policy to protect
homosexuals, SUNYA's Gay and
Lesbian Alliance is still dissatisfied
wilh adininislralivc action.
Although O'Leary has agreed lo
prohibit discrimination at SUNYA
based on sexual or affeclional
preferences, he has nol yet formulated a concrete policy, according to Gay and Lesbian Alliance
spokesperson Scon Robinson.
_ O'Leary is in ihe process of determining'whether or nol llie extended
policy will be included in SUNYA's
current anti-discrimination statement. According to O'Leary,
"possible legal problems" involving
Affirmative Action may occur.
Affirmative Action is a federal

SUNYA's anti-discrimination statemcnl is handled by the Affirmative

F i r e Officials Inspect SUNYA

The annual inspection, which includes a review of llie campus safely
program and an inspection of all
public buildings, is mandated by
Education Law 807-A, Scharl said.
The inspection can take
"anywhere from 8-14 weeks lo be
completed," he said. "It's done on
all the SUNY campuses."
Scharl added thai the Inspection
is conducted by a panel of "fire
eonlrol experts," many former
firemen. Ihe panel goes through
every building on campus to find
violations determined by the Nulional Fire Protection Code. They
will also check on-canipiis student
bedrooms, if requested, according
lo Scharl.
Once the inspection is finished,
officials compile a reporl of each
building to be sent to Ihe
Chancellor's Office, the. SUNYA
Plant Department, the Public Safely Office and the Department of
Finance and Business. SUNYA officials receive reports by midsummer, according to Assistant
Vice President for Finance and
Business Robert Sticrcr.
While the NYS Office or Fire
Prevention is strictly a recommending body, Scharl said, "We try lo
take care of as many violations as
we can."
Many violations arc "minor"
and do not lake a lot of tune and
money. "For example," lie said,
"it's a violation for the dining hall
doors to be blocked. So we correct
llie problem right there or send a
memo lo the person in charge.
Many violations like this arc taken

Other violations arc corrected by

The Crisis
Richard Lester's Cuba proves once and for
all that a good director and a talented cast do
not necessarily make a good movie. Nor can
all the fault be laid at the feet of the script,
which In this case really Is atrocious. Cuba
which has no excuse to be as bad as it is, looks
and feels as If the entire crew (director Lester
included) were all suffering from an enormous
communal hangover.
Jim Dixon
Cuba seems designed to hark back to films
like Casablanca. The major ingredients are
there: a decadent but exotic setting, a strong,
silent hero who's a closet romantic, corrupt
villains, revolutionaries, and a woman who's
torn between her dashing husband and her
old lover. Unfortunately, the heroic romance
of Casablanca is missing In Cuba, as Is Its style.
Sean Connery, a star I've always liked,

the dying Batista regime to act as a counter-

Then there Is an Implied ambivalence concerning the revolutionaries. At first, after having seen (ad nauseaum) the squallor of most
of Cuba, and the decadence of Its leaders, a

that his or her sympathies should lie with the
rebels. Then the rebels crash a dinner parly
and riddle the guests with submachine guns.
Even at a hundred dollars a plate, the food

civilians and their wives Is harder to justify.

For the remainder of the show, both Danko
and Butterfleld shared the spotlight; each taking material from their solo albums and giving
it a different interpretation. Backed by an effective supporting band, they played off each
other well. Both musicians have been playing
professionally since the early 60's and have
jammed with some of the best musicians in the
folk-rock-blues area. Their vast experience
and musical knowledge proved to be Important (actors in the show. Both players were
relaxed and performed effortlessly and fluldly,
extending their enthusiasm to the crowd.
L'anko Is. besides an eccentric about stage,
one of the most skilled bassists In rock, adding
character and backbone to many tunes while
Butter-field's harmonica playing, which still remains uncontested, animated the performance. Both talents demonstrated their collective playing ability during a Beach "Boys
oldie "Sloop John B.," which was very nicely
done.
Although I'm not much of a blues aficianado, the show turned out to be Interesting.
It was good to see two "veterans" still rocking
out and turning on a new generation. One
complaint worth noting is that the band only
played for an hour and didn't return for an encore which suprised many people and nearly
led to a riot.
Well, so much for being professional . . .

Last semester Bob worked In the men's
training room. He enjoys the work and says he •
likes to talk lo the person he Is massaging. One
o( the reasons for his change of occupation is
lhal he prefers, "people to paper." He believes
that massage leads to better health and
physical fitness, including improved circulation and better muscle lone. Jack Koelmel,
chief athletic trainer for men's teams at
SUNYA, says lhal massage Is a very good
treatment but Is unfortunately too expensive to
use on a regular basis. Finding a masseur willing lo give his time freely Is unusual. Bob has
successfully attended the Bancroft School o l
Massage In Worcester, Mass. and Is now practicing for his license exams, which he will lake
In December.
Curtlss's massage is a very good one. T o
start, the patient must strip down. Then oil Is
placed on the skin for lubrication. The strokes
soothe the skin and relax Ihe muscles. Aside
from Ihe upper body all the limbs are massaged. The massage can last, anywhere from a
half hour to an hour. If the patient's attitude Is
right he will drift off In relaxation, merely enjoying the sensations and feeling the luxury of
a massage. At the end the body feels loose
and relaxed. Mr. Koelmel said thai most of the
athletes at the gym who were massaged enjoyed the experience.'
Mr. Curllss Is a dynamic and lively man. He
is entering undauntedly Into a field which
many people do nol lake seriously, but which
is beneficial physically. Mr. Curllss Is not concerned by people's reaction to his line of work,
bul he does object to the popular conception
of a massage parlor. He feels loo many people
associate massage parlors with prostitution
and feels this Is detrimental to Ihe field of
massage therapy. Unfortunately, some patients seek or hint at sexual relationships with
Ihe masseur. Mr. Curllss objects lo this, and
searches for, "good, clean people" as
clientele.
Mr'. Curtiss deserves congratulations and
good luck. He Is currently writing a book on
his experiences as a masseur. Furthermore, he
plans lo be a moving force In starling a school,
of massage In the Albany area. He Is doing
something dlffereni and exciting, something
which ioo few of us know about, or are willing
lo experience. This semester he will be down
at Ihe Gym offering free massage lo the
Albany State community. A massage would
be an Interesting and enjoyable experience. a

IS THERE LIFE
M
American companies have apparently come up with a new
method for disposing of their
highly-toxic industrial wastes: they
are planning to ship the poisons
overseas for burial in third world
countries.
The U.S. Stale Department says
it is concerned about this concept of
dumping American
waslcs
overseas, predicting that il will lead
to anti-American outcries from
third world nations.
According to 77ic New York
Tiincs, the disposal of Industrial byproducts such as arsenic and other
chemicals has become increasingly
difficult In the United Stales, partly
in response to Ihe waslc scandal at
New York's Love Canal.
The Times says many American
chemical waste firms arc finding
that foreign nations have wasteburial standards which are much
less stringent than those in the
United States. In addition, the
overseas nations are said to be eager
lo attract American companies to
their shores.
Among the nations said to be interested in offering chemical dumping areas to U.S. firms are Chile
and the African nations of Sierra
Leone and Liberia.
One recent Stale Department
memo predicted thai if U.S. firms
dispose of their toxic wastes in
Africa, African nations will eventually join together to "condemn
Ihe U.S. lor dumping it's wastes In
the black man's backyard."

AFTER COLLEGE?

Albany Student Press
Five University of Michigan
students, who were kicked out of a
fraternity after it was discovered a
cat was mutilated and then burned
to death, have pleaded no contest to
a misdemeanor charge of animal
cruelty,
The five, who had been members
of ihc Alpha Delia Phi fraternity,
chopped the paws off ihc cat and
then set il ablaze last December
because the animal refused to use a
liner box at the fraternity house.
Council on policy studies in higher
education predicts a five to fifteen
percent drop in college enrollments
over the next two decades.
According to Ihc study, the increasing shortage in students will
force colleges and universities to
compete even harder to enroll them.
The study predicts that students
who choose to attend college will —
in the study's words — "Be
recruited more actively, admitted
more readily, retained more
assiduously, counseled more attentively, finance more adequately and
taught more conscientiously . . .
and ihc curriculum will be more
tailored to tlicir tastes."
While students tnuy be more
pampered in (he years ahead, Ihe
report predicts that budget cutbacks
and other restrictions will make the
jobs of teachers and administrators
more difficult and less desireable.
Tripping Treatment
A psychedelic trip may be just the
thing for an upset stomach, At Icasl
that's what researcher Elor
Rodriguez of the University of
California at Irvine is suggesting.
Rodriguez says that as well as
having mind expanding properlies,
certain psychoactive plants may
also be the perfect cure for a variety
of parasitic diseases, including
amoebic dysentery.
Rodriguez says that the Indians
of the Amazon in South America
may have preserved their own race
by eating toxic psychoactive plants
which induced vomiting and helped
cure parasitic diseases.
Rodriguez says that Ihe Indians
may not have been aware of the
medical benfils of the psychedelic
plants, but sensed an Improvement
in physical health after taking them.
Rodriguez, who lived wilh an
elderly medicine man among the
Kamsa Indians of the Amazon,
quotes ihe medicine man as saying
that he had taken psychedelic drugs
since lie was six years old and thai
the drugs, "make you feel good in
the head, which makes your body
feel good."
Rodriguez is currently studying
the psychoactive ipecac root taken
by Ihe Amazon Indians which is
also one of the most effcclivc
substances known In combatting
parasitic disease.

The hairstyle has been popular

To the Editor:
Do you know why we have people who
speak out against registering for selective service? The United Stales o f America is the only counlry thai allows its citizens lo voice opinions which can be completely contrary lo
the official policy of the government. We
may stand lo lose this freedom. How? Lei's
luce Ihe facts. Beginning in the I970's we lost
our ability lo be energy independent and Ihus
dependent on foreign oil. When there is a
dependency there comes ils counterpart,
vulnerability. Then we have our second
vulnerability, We have retreated from the
world picture because we screwed up the
Viclnaui War. Since then we have bcen.afraid
to make decisions in fear of screwing up
again. Oh yes; before I said a dependency
causes a vulnerability; our dependency is
ourselves. We think to much o f ourselves and
not enough o f others. It's nol lo hard lo
undersland why. All W'e have lo do is look al
our own lifestyles. The food we cat, the
clothes we wear, the places we live in would
be considered down right luxurious lo people
living in Moscow and an impossibly attainable dream lo people starving in Cambodia. In our own little world of selfishness,
we forget Ihal Ihe things we have are nol really from mommy and daddy but from the
United .Stales of America.
This lack of concern and ability to act effectively lias brought about the crisis in Iran.
The Iranians knew we would be unlikely to
respond with anylhing but token slaps on the
w r i s t . W h e n the S o v i e i s
invaded
Jiauisian, the Iranians didn't lake over
the Soviet embassy. The I'irsi Iranian lo climb
over the waif would be the first one lo come
down dead. Il all comes back lo the fear of
screwing up and losing our oil supply.
In Ihe Tuesday, January 29 issue o f ASP,
Ami-Nuclear Coalition member .Rczsin
Adams was quoted as saying " W e oppose
Time is running out...
write a letter, fast
values from penetrating the " I r o n C u r t a i n "
and " I n f e c t i n g " the Russian People. They
believed that the Russian economy must be
transformed into an autarkic (self-sufficient,
non-penetrable) system. This, they contended, must be accomplished even at the cost of
producing inferior goods and chancing
periodic shortages of vital materials.
The consiaiil infighting oT these factions
has finally culminated in Ihe twilight of the
Brezhnev era in Soviet leadership as signalled
by the invasion of Afghanistan. The attack
upon the Afghan nation with Soviet troops is
hardly characteristic of either Brezhnev or
Kosygin, and il is highly questionable
whether they would have approved of such il
registration for the draft because it is a warlike move. We oppose the military posture
that Carter has now lakeu toward protecting
U.S. interest in the Persian Gulf area." I can
see considering Irun Invading United States
soil as u wur-like move. I can sec Ihe Sovicl
Union invading Afghanistan as a war-like
move. I can see Ihe United Stales
• relnslltuting registration for the draft as a
war-likje move. The difference is ihe I'irsi two
are examples o f unprovoked invasions while
ihe third is a necessary response lo unwarranted aggression. " W e oppose ihe ntililarj
posture thul Curler bus now taken toward
protecting U.S. interest in the Persian Gull
area." In one sentence M r . Adams proposes
to make our oil supply and our milllarj
capability even more vulnerable lo unwarranted aggression.
So now our two vulncrublities come
together; and like shit, hit the fan (the fan being presently Iran, Afghanistan, unci the
Sovicl Union). When the President says uc
need lo register for the draft, the students
come out with their posters and chant about
not registering, going to Canada and nol gelling their asses shot up. Well, damn it, I
don't wanl lo get my ass shot up either and
anybody who lells me he's not afraid to get
his ass shot up is u damn fool, Whelhci we
like the idea o f registration for Ihe drafl oi
nol, it is something we need and anybody
who refuses to register or serve our country il
called lo do so should be punished lo the
fullest extent o f the law. Not many people
like the idea o f beingcalled to fight a war, bill
if your life is worth more lo you than fighting
for your country then you may find youi life
isn't worlh too much under Sovicl rule.
George Schroedci
Follow-Up Efforts
T o the Editor:
In lieu of receni International "crises", bui
more specifically, the Soviet invasion ol
Afghanistan, Ihe United Stales Government,
and various other American organizations
have taken what they believe to he effective
measures lo counter Russian "aggression,"
Almost immediately following the Sovicl
measure unless under Ihe extreme duress ol
Ihe hard-liners. W i l l i the invasion ol
A f g h a n i s t a n , the prcdomiance of Ihe
" m i l i t a r y " faction of the Politburo has been
established.
In Ihe final analysis, I conclude Ihal the
Soviet policy making mechanism is under
constant stress f r o m pressure groups
throughout ils entire structure. The invasions
o f Afghanistan provides evidence strongly
suggesting Ihal Ihe monolithic Moscow myth
simply just does nol exisi. Factionalism in the
Sovicl system will continue lo exist and
ultimately foil attempts by any group lo
establish a permanent monopoly of influence.

editorial
comment
asion of December 27lh, the U.S. Govcm...cnt passed legislation that would effectively curtail American grain shipments to the
U.S.S.R. This step does not seem lo be the
besi way to inflict pressure on the Soviet
regime. They have effectively side siepped
this sanction by turning to other grain producing nations for their needs. The U.S. then
imposed a ban on high technology exports to
the Soviet Union. This measure too has been
oul-mancuvcred. The Russians have turned
to Western European Multi-National Corporations to solve their problem. Even the
"private" action by ihe Longshoreman's
Union to terminate (he unloading of all Russian ships met an unsuccessful end with the
January 3()lh court order to unload Ihe Russian cargo.
Perhaps our best action to date is the
threatened Olympic Boycott by the United
Stales Government. Although this is only a
symbolic gesture, it will deprive Moscow o f
the sense of legitimacy thai is traditionally
bestowed upon the holder of the Games. I
believe we must lake much harsher measures.
I am calling on every "responsible"
American lo institute u boycott on all Russian imports.
According to :he Russian Dressing Institute of Leningrad, ( R D I L ) , Russian Dressing exports to the United States accounted
for 27 percent o f all Soviet exports in 1979.
Furthermore, these exports accounted for
14,9 percenl o f the total G N P o f the Soviet
Union for that year.
The U.S. is the world's second largest importer of Russian dressing (Pakistan is
number one; have you ever tasted a plain
Pakistani salad?) According to receni
Government statistics, Americans consume
Russian Dressing al the annual rate of 5
million litres per year. I f our citizens cut back
Iheir Russian Dressing consumption by 75
percent, we could practically cripple the
Soviel economy. This is an effective measure.
1 call on all Americans to switch to Ihe
dressings of our allies, french and Italian,
and once and for all lo show ihe world thai
we arc a united people, ready to make vast
sacrifices Jo counter "naked aggression."
We must protect our national interests
and
make
the
world
safe
for democracy." Our goal is " t o ensure the
peoples of the world of their unalienable
right lo choose the government of iheir making."
Take action now America! Boycott Russian Dressing!

Effective Boycott
To the Editor:
On Tuesday January 29th, literally
thousands of students and professionals
descended on the Stale Capilol in Albany lo
protest proposed budget cuts for SUNY and
CUNY. The tactics1 used by this impressive
group of lobbyists were much more civilized
and more organized than past student protests respecting SUNY and should be commended as a good first beginning for the
" U a t l l c o f the Budgel Cuts, 1980."
Many of the students came away from
their day in Albany a little bit frustrated
because many of ihe legislators were nol
available for consultation or gave the inipres- •
sion lhat they were giving ihe students, the
run-around. This is a common feeling among lobbyists al first and should nol be viewed
as discouraging. Part of the problem is ihal
many of ihe legislators have not yet gotten a
chance lo study the budgci proposals ami ore
nil unsure of Iheir position.
I lie day was a success, Inn if any significant results are lo conic from SAVE SUNY
Day an extensive follow-up effori will be
needed. As frequent witnesses to lobbying efforts In Albany, we suggcsl the following:
(1) Letter writing — All interested students
and professionals should send a lellci lo thcii
representatives in Albany expressing Iheir
viewpoint; ii is important to use your home
address when writing so ihe legislator knows
you're from his district. Short, handwritten
letters are more effective than form letters.
(2) Petitions — Each Student Association
should begin a petition drive on each respec-
tive campus. The petitions should be made
according to Senate or Assembly District and
copies should be sent to each respective
legislator. Additional copies could be senl to
home-town newspapers along with a position
statement on the budget cuts.
(3) Additional Visits — Follow-up visils by
informed students and UUP representatives
will serve lo keep Ihe issue alive and to give
ihe legislators an environment where they can
discuss the budgel ems and realize ihe
seriousness o f the issue.
Above all, we must keep Ihe budgel cuts
issue on the minds of the legislators. The
budgel deadline is March 3lsl so action is
needed now! This is an election year and each
legislator will be especially concerned about
issues in which we are concerned.
One warning: do nol be fooled by proposals lo increase Ihe Tuition Assistance Program. T A P increases mean increased state
aid lo private schools; SUNY and C U N Y
students would only save SUNY und
C U N Y is through direct stale tiid. Stress thai
point in your letters and petitions!
Please gel involved! Save public higher
education in New York Stale. Your help is
needed if we ure to be successful.

To the Editor:
Recently 1 was at ihe school post office lo
buy a package of stamps. The series o f events
ihal transpired lead me to believe that Ihe
U.S. post office is run by a "pack of i d i o t s " .
After wailing on line for quite some lime,
probably because Ihe man behind the counter
moved so slowly, 1 was Insulted by the office
employee. It seems that after a 15 minute
wail he chose to close Ihe window when I gol
lo Ihe front of Ihe line. " T h e post office can
do whatever it wants!" To say the least I was
shocked. What gives Ibis guy ihe right lo tell
me that, and moreover .vhen did this jerk
start establishing post o i l ice policy?
If the posi office can cio whatever il wants,
then as far as I'm concerned lei it do it
somewhere else. I thought ihe posi office wu.i
on compus to serve us. I now know that lo be
untrue. And in the future, if they chose lo be
so unkind, possibly we can sec lo il Ihal there
is no longer a post office on campus. I'd
rather go somewhere else, tlieii be subjected
lo ihe post offfice " o m n i p o t e n t " attitude.

Grapplers Near .500 Mark
With Three Wins For Week
by Mike WiHiamsop
The Albany Stale varsily wrestling team enjoyed a very successful
week, defeating three of four opponents. As usual, forfeits played a
part in the outcome, but for once,
they were in Albany's favor.
On Wednesday, Albany defeated
Fairlcigh Dickinson University by a
score of 32-17. The match included
five forfeits, three by FDU and two
by Albany. Of the five matches,
Albany won three, tied one, and
lost only one. Dane wrestlers scoring team points included Selh
Zamek, who tied his opponent at
118, and Mark Dailey who won by
fall at 150. Lenny Guzman at 158
and Steve Cronin at 167 both
defeated their opponents to end
what proved to be a rather short
match as the last three weight
classes were forfeited.
On Saturday, Albany hosted a
Q u a d r a n g u l a r meet a g a i n s t
Page Fifteen
Albany Student Press
Clarkson, Onconia, and Central
Connecticut. Albany was victorious
against Clarkson and Onconta, but
was defeated by a strong Central
Connecticut team.
The Clarkson match was
dominated by forfeits, as only four
of ten matches were actually wrestled. Albany freshman Rob Spagnoli
won 11-3 at 134 to give Albany four
team points. This, plus five forfeit
victories gave Albany an easy 34-12
team victory.
Albany's next opponent was
Onconta. Albany jumped to a 12
point lead as Onconia forfeited at
118 and 126. Spagnoli wrestled to a
2-2 tie at 134 to maintain this 12
point margin. Dailey and Dave
Straub won at 142 and 150, respectively, to widen the margin to 18
points.
At 158, Guzman was narrowly
defeated by last year's SUNYAC
most valuable wrestler Ron Van-
Noy, 7-5. This was to be Onconta's
only victory as Cronin won at 167,
Paul Hombach tied at 177, and Vic
Herman won at 190. As usual,
Albany forfeited at heavyweight to
complete the scoring 28-13.
The final match of the day was
against Central Connecticut, and
Albany came out on the short end
of a 33-15 score. The match was
much closer than the score would
indicate, with Ihe outcome being
undecided until after Ihe 167 pound
match, despite Albany's forfeiting
(wo weight classes.
The closeness of the contest was
the result of pins by Mitch Litkc at
158 and Hombach at 177. Both
wrestlers totally dominated their
opponents on the way to their
respective victories. Spagnoli provided the rest of Albany's points
with a 5-1 victory at 134.
The weeks activity upped Ihe
teams record to 8-9 for Ihe season.
In addition, Hombach remained
undefeated, running his record to
16-0-1. The loam travels to Western
New England University tomorrow,
and will be at RPI on Saturday.

added, "Wc had a lough mcci^with
R.P.I, last year. Our head-to-head
competition always seems to be very
exciting. I'm glad our team was able
to pull through with the victory."

TROY, N.Y. — "Salurday, it'll be
a different game." That Vwhal RPI
head J.V. basketball coach Bill
Tweedy said on January 26, after
his team had lost to the Albany
men's J.V. squad, 78-67. Well, last
Salurday, it was a bit different.
Albany's Mike Oatlo only scored 16
points (he had 26 against RPI the
c^*«-last time), but Mike Gaines hit for
20 as the Danes finally found success on the road, afnd beat the
Engineers 65-61, Saturday afternoon at the RPI Field House.
Albany's' record is now an impressive 10-2.
A superb Albany inan-lo-man
defense once again shut down the
Engineer front line. Lance Tracey
(21 points in the last Albany-RPI
game) was held to a meager four

tallies by Dane forward Ray Edwards, and 6-8 center Tom Truax

(but only seven in the second half,
and nine on free throws).
As was Ihe case in Albany's three
previous contests, lite Danes fell
behind early. RPI led by as much as
seven points, 16-9, after seven and
one-half minutes. But, capping off

said an extremely disgusted
Tweedy. "That's where the game
was lost — the battle of the

so sure that was a big factor,"
noted Kopp, pointing out Albany

Fouling was not a factor this
time, as no Dane was in serious foul
trouble. Gatlo had four, but committed the last infraction with only
56 seconds remaining. Albany also
shot 15 for 22 from the foul line,
which is an improvement from their
earlier games.
Kopp was extremely relieved to

New Paltz Hands Swimmers First Setback,

The Albany Stale men's swimming ieam registered an impressive
83-27 win over Hariwick College,

bang, as the relay team of Steve
Bonawilz, Joe Shore, Frank Helcr

winning lime of 3:46.27. In the

menting on Shore, White said that
"his stroke split was phenomenal."
With Albany down by seven
points, a victory in the 400 freestyle
relay, worth seven points to the
winner and zero points for second
place, would have given them a
'draw with New Paltz.The race boiled down to Albany's relay team of
Roberts, Heter, Zybala and Ahern
against New Paltz' complement of
Conoway, Bauer, Gormison and
Frier. Bolh teams got off to good
starts, but New Paltz pulled away a
lead on the last\leg to edge the
Danes by 3.38 seconds in the relay.
The win gave New Paltz the 63-49
victory over Albany. Albany's night
was not totally lost as they scored a
56 point win over Hariwick.
The rowdy New Pullz team,
which slowed down action by
drowning out the public address announcements, bettered their
season's record to 8-1. Albany's
record was reduced lo 6-1 and Hartwick's to 2-6. White slated that

Spikers Surprise

The Albany Stale
men's
volleyball learn whipped a surprised
Cortland team on Cortland's home
courl on Saturday, 15-9, 15-7, 15-9.
" T h i s was a good winTor u s , " said
Albany volleyball coach Ted Earl,
" C o r t l a n d had anticipated that they
would blow us out — we ended up
turning it around and doing il lo
them."
The Albany icam surprised
everybody wilh their play — including themselves, " W e hadn't
scrimmaged yet and we only had
iwo weeks of practice. We were
concerned," admitted Earl. He
quickly added that " C o r t l a n d is a
better volleyball team than they
showed. They had a few bad breaks
and their confidence evaporated.
They were serving lough but (hey
never got their offense on the right
track."
In the first game, Albany got
themselves on the right track from
ihe very beginning. On the first play
they losl serve, but then'they got a
perfect pass, a perfeel set, and Ihe
" W e had good play oui o f

Nusinov and Fred Askham were
particularly devastating oul o f the
middle and credit has to go to Gary
Becker — they didn't block him all
day. Devon Lockley also played
well, and Gene Sosiak did a tremendous j o b passing. We were able to
gel solid offense all day in ihe form
o f T o m Leahy, Steve Beck and'Bob
Allers."
This season, Albany will be using
a new offense. " I n the past we have
been only using a 4-2 offense. Now
we're switching to a 5 - 1 , " Earl ex-

Muldowney said Ihe proposal can
only go through with the consent of

plans to present to the hoard when
they meet," he said.
A spokesman
for
SUNY
Chancellor Clifton Wharton said
they have not received a formal proposal from Carey and "couldn't
com men t on something
they
haven't seen."
" W e can't accept the Times'
Union as gospel," he said, " a n d
can't make any final decisions."
Vice Chancellor of Finance and
Business Harry K. SplndlCr said he
" d i d not know anything about the
Governor's proposal until (he) read
It in the Times-Union this morning."
He said he didn't fully understand the proposal and couldn't
comment until he was sure o f all the
details.

Governor Hugh L. Carey proposed a plan calling for SUNY sfudents
to pay an addilional $1,000 tuition
tee after graduation al a press conference Wednesday.
SA President I Istl Newmark
said the proposal was " a perfect example of how Carey is giving up Oil
public education . . . it shows how
leadership is not helping in a lime of
crisis but instead is creating a worse
situation."
" I ' m shocked and don't know
how he is going lo collect," she
said, " I hope he is not-serious."
Muldowney said " t h e governor
would nol have made Ihe proposal
if he were nol serious about i t . "
SASU Organizing Director Bruce
Cronin called Carey's proposal
"totally ridiculous. You don't pay
for a product after you're through
with i t , " he said.
"Besides,", he added, "most
students have loans to pay olT.-We
don't want lo have lo pay the slate,
too."
Cronin said he sees Ihe proposal
as a "diversionary tactic."
" l i e ' s trying to take ihe focus o\'i'
the recent budget cuts and gel our
minds off tuition hikes. Meanwhile,
he's selling the slage for a more
realistic luilion increase," he said.
Cronin feels ihis is a further allcmpt by Carey to "phase out
SUNY and public education by
withdrawing nunc and i lore slate
aid."
