Gridders Top Brockport; Snap Losing Streak
Vol. LXV1I No.31
Tent City Protest On
But Win Still Leaves Questions
by Bob Bellaflore
BROCKPORT — The offense had
to get moving. It did, for 407 yards,
370 of which were on the ground.
The offense also had to put
points on the board. It did — 42 of
them, and three touchdowns were
nullified because of penalties.
The defense had to stop the attack of the fifth-rated passer in
Division III. It did, notching four
quarterback sacks, and keeping
their opposition out of the end zone
until it was far too late.
The special teams had to start
becoming a weapon — a force that
could influence ballgamcs. It did,
with Albany defensive back Don
Bowen returning a punt 53 yards
for a touchdown. He also averaged
27 yards per return on seven
chances.
Total these factors, and the result
is the 42-13 trouncing of the
Brockport State football team by
Albany Saturday for the Danes'
first victory — in a game that
wasn't quite that close.
The win snapped a five game
Dane losing streak (longest since
1922-23).
"I'm just glad to get a 'w' (win)
at this point," said Albany head
coach Bob Ford.
The Dane mentor did have his
reservations though, mainly
because of the 10 penalties that cost
Albany 119 additional yards. Most
of those were lost at important

Three times did Votraw lake the
ball into the end zone and three
times were his scored called back
because of Albany infractions. A
motion penalty took away the first
— a 19-yard pass from Mike
Fiorito. The second, a 25-yard toss
from Tom Pratt, came back due to
an ineligible receiver downficld call.
And the third, a nine-yard reverse,
was nullified by a clipping foul. On
only one of those drives did Albany
get the score back. After the pass
from Pratt, Dane fullback Chuck
Priorc pranced 40 yards through the
middle for a touchdown.
"Not disciplined," is what Ford
called the win. "I saw a lot of good
things...we didn't do everything
right," he continued.
There were good signs, though,
the best being the offense. Saturday, it was the wishbone attack of
old, which meant a lot of running
and not much passing.
Priore led the Dane stampede for
the third consecutive week, netting
116 yards on 18 carries. Ford now
has the stocky back doing doubleduly by alternating him at halfback
to case the loss of Sam Haliston
(still out with a leg injury).
While Priorc wasn't at fullback,
sub John Duranl was more than an
adequate replacement. Tltc 5 ' I I "
and 200 pound junior was Albany's
number two rusher (72 yards, eight
carries). Levi Louis also had his
best day to date, with 69 yards on
10 carries.
The wishbone of old also means a
limited passing game. Starter
Fiorito was good on only one of
seven throws, totaling four yards,
with one interception. Pratt, who
split the game with Fiorito, was a
bit more efficient (two of four for
33 yards).

Scoring Summary
"I hoped that our team would
have finished higher in the tournament," said Lewis. "However, part
of the reason we didn't score higher
was the quality of the competition.
Except in two instances, we drew
opponents Irom the top teams."
The tournament is set up so that
there an: nine different brackets,
one for first through sixth singles
and first through third doubles.
Each bracket consists of four single
•elimination rounds. One point is
awarded for each match won, so
that the player that wins each
bracket gets four points for his
team a semi-finalist winner gels
three, and so on.
In first singles, Albany's Barry
Lcvinc won his first round match
against Steve Knapp of St.
Michaels, but lost in the second
round to Matt DiBiasc of
Rochester, the number foul seed,
6-3, 6-4. DiBiasc went on to the
finals before losing to third-seeded
Kevin Maguire of lona.
The Danes' number two player,
Fred Gaber, also triumphed in the
by SASU." Cronin explained thai
this would be considered detrimental to SASU.
However, Cronin said, Wharton
and SASU officers have agreed to
meet in order to discuss the situation. SASU, Cronin continued, has
a list of six demands concerning
campus housing which they will
negotiate.
The demands to Chancellor
Wharton are as follows:
•A halt lo any further plans to
move SUNY donnatories toward
self-sufficiency by recommending
that the Board of Trustees Kesolulion (regarding self-sufficiency)
passed on May 2H be rescinded.
•A public commitment by SUNY
Central and Ihe Hoard of Trustees
lo give al least one month's public
notice before acting on any student
fee increase proposal.
Student displays poster for "Tent Cily.
SASU and SU are trying to amass support.
•A comprehensive plan to end
tripling in rooms designed lo house
two people. This plan should be
ready by December I, 1980.
•The replacement of the present
housing contract with a lease, binding on both administration and
students, lo be bargained al the
beginning of each rental period by
student negotiators and SUNY Central (or campus administrators),
•An ISA- (auxiliary service corporal ion)type governing board,

campus to administer dormatory
governance procedures, including
policy-making and lining of

•All university and housing
agreements between students and
SUNY concerning fees be honored
by SUNY for their duration.
If a resolution can be reached and
agreed on b> all SUNY schools,
"Tent Cily" will be called ofr,
Cronin said.
However, he added, "Tent City"
is in full swing unless the Chancellor
grants Ihe demands.
Against SUNY Trustees
SASU and SA have filed suit againsl SUNY Chancellor Clifton
Wharton and the SUNY board of trustees, calling the room rental increase unlawful, and demanding its nullification.
The suit, filed Monday in Slate Supreme Court by attorney Lew
Oliver, contends that the $150 per semester room rental increase was
approved in violation of the Open Meeting Law.
That law sets criteria for closed-to-public executive meetings of the
Board, and the suit contends discussion and decision on Ihe rental increase did not fit the criteria,
The suit says thai because of Ihe secrecy and late dale of those
meetings, "full and free discussion" of the increase was prevented,
causing lens of thousands of SUNY sludenls to lose scholarship, grant
and loan assistance.
More complete coverage of the increase issue will be featured in
Tuesday's ASP.

Bob Lewis. "The weather was
brutal on Friday — it was very windy and very cold. I am personally
amazed at the caliber of play. It was
certainly not a day suited for tennis."
When it was all over, after 135

Trailways vs. Greyhound
Albany, N.Y. (AP) Trailways has been given permission
by the stale Department of Transportation to go into
direct competition with the buses of Greyhound Lines
Inc. on the Albany-Buffalo corridor. "This decision
will give the carriers an opportunity to compete on an
equal footing and perhaps find innovative marketing
methods to attract passengers from automobile travel,"
said Transportation Commissioner William Hennessy
on Thursday. Hennessy said that the present energy
crisis makes "it essential that we take steps lo encourage
the use of inter-city bus transportation." The application', by two Trailways affiliates — Adirondack Transit
and Western New York Motor Lines — has been opposed by Greyhound and the Central New York Coach
Lines Inc., which also services the corridor. Hennessy
said the added competition, while possibly bringing
about lower prices, would also end the need for
passengers to switch from Trailways to Greyhound terminals in either Albany or Rochester.

Meyers Fights Expulsion
(AP) Rep. Michael J. Myers, facing possible expulsion
from the House for his Abseam bribery conviction, is
arguing lhal only his constituents — not his colleagues
— should be able lo kick him out of Congress. But on
the eye of today's House debate, the two-term Pennsylvania Democrat said he expects to be thrown out,
thus becoming the first congressman expelled since three
borderstate congressmen were banished during the Civil
War for joining the Confederate army, "If they expcll,
like I expect, the House will be operating like a lynch
mob used t o , " Myers said in an interview published today by The Washington post. "And I will immediately
file a suit in federal court, with some of my constituents,
charging that Congress violated its own rules in moving
so fast." The ease was punctuated with election-year
politics, and the vote was set for the day Congress was to
recess for a final month of campaigning. A two-thirds
majority is needed for expulsion. "Obviously, in this
mood, it's hard for impartial justice to be dispensed,"
said one Democratic House member who requested
anonymity. "The only argument in Myers' defense is
that perhaps only the voters of his district have a right to
kick him out." Myers, who is asking for a lesser penalty
of either a reprimand or censure, was expected to use
that very argument as he took the floor in his own
defense. "The gist of his defense will be that the ethics
committee denied him his right to due process and that
the time frame in this rush to judgment has been too
quick to enable him to obtain evidence," said Myers'
administrative assistant, Michael Corbett.
Iran Criticizes U.S.
(AP) Iran's representative at the International Monetary
Fund and World Bank strongly criticized the United
States today for freezing Iranian assets last year, bin
said nothing about the American hostages or Iran's war
with Iraq. Esfandiar Rashidzadeh, an official of Iran's
cenlral bank, also joined Saudi Arabia, China and other
Third World representatives in calling for reform of the
IMF and World Bank lo give poor and developing nation i a greater voice. He said the U.S. action in freezing
$8 billion in Iranian government assets last year, which
the Iranians alleged violated IMF regulations, is an example of how the United States manipulates the inslilutions for ils own purposes. The United Stales undertook
the freeze, which is still in effect, in an unsuccessful effort to force Iran to give up llie hostages. "II was a
dangerous weapon thai affected nol only those againsl
whom il was aimed, but also hail global repercussions
which have resulted in undermining the world confidence in the International banking system," Rashidzadeh told the annual meeting of the 141 -nation IMF
and llie World Bank. Although Iran had complained lo
the IMF, which is dominated by the United Slates and
iis industrial allies, the inst il lit ion accepted the U.S. explanation lhal llie freeze was necessary for reasons of
national security. "One fails to see how such measures
by llie United Stales, that in fad inflicted serious
damage lo public confidence, could possibly enhance
secuirly," Rashidzadeh said. He called for a refored
system "lhal does not leave any room for manipulation
by any single country." Bolh Saudi Arabia and the People's Republic of China, which are emerging as major
powers in the world economy, also urged reform of the
IMF' and World Bank lo break the lighl control of the
United Stales and other Industrial nations. In speeches,
llie finance ministers of both nations said the iwo inslllullons should give poor and developing countries a
bigger voice and more benefits.
Racial Tension in S. Boston
(AP) Fighting broke out loday between black and while
students at racially-lensc South Boston High School,
leaving five injured and prompting officials lo close the
school. "We have four while youths taken to the
hospital with slight injuries and one black youth taken
to llie hospital," said Officer Geroge Lotli. "We've arrested one black youth." Police dispatched ambulances
and extra officers to the school where court-ordered
busing lias led lo sporadic violence since 1974. Police
reported minor injuries among a dozen other students.
The fighl was I he first such racial incidcnl of the year al
llie high school, but ont: school official said "This has
been brewing for some time." The fighting reportedly
began in the auditorium and while students then walked
oui of the school. Black students were later bused from
the school perched atop a hill in a while neighborhood.
"The word is that this has been brewing for some lime,"
said School Department spokesman Fred Foye. "There
has been trouble on the perimeters of the school, in the
'neighborhood. We have had reports that tensions have
been high." Foye said school officials were considering
keeping llie school closed Friday "logct us through the
weekend."
Iran Appoints Committee
(AP) Iran's parliament loday named a seven-member
committee lo investigate the issue of llie 52 American
hostages, the official Iranian news agency Pars said
Sources here said four of the seven were hardliners likely
lo oppose release of the hosiages without a trial The
parliament also rejected direct or thlrd-pany ncgotialions with the United Stales on llie hosiages, now in
their 334ih day in captivity, n | s scheduled to reopen
debate on the hostages Sunday. Parliament, in forming
the committee earlier this week, made clear thai the full
parliament will have the final say in determining the
hostages' fate. There was no immediate indication what
prompted the announcement about rejecting direct or
third-party ncgotioations. But there was speculation it
might be in reprisal for a Carter administration decision
to send sophisticated radar picket planes to Saudi
Arabia to help protect that nation's oilfields in the face
of Iranian threats to attack them because of Saudi
Arabia's reported offer of aid to Iraq In Ils war with
Iran.

Campus Sexual Harassment Cited
Found In and Out of Classroom
by Karen Kurkhill
Sexual harassment at SUNYA
was the topic of a meeting of about
15 people Tuesday afternoon sponsored by Feminist Alliance and the
Affirmative Action Office,
The meeting was arranged "to
discuss the problem of sexual
harassment present on campus"
and to "involve people and help
publicize the issue," according to
Sharon Ward, organizer of the
meeting.
Ward said sexual harassment
"ranges from offensive comments
in the classroom to outright
physical assault.
"Both kinds of harassment have
happened because a large number
of males in positions of authority
abuse this power (of authority) on
women who are dependent on them
for grades or recommendations,"
she added.
Bonnie Cohen, a training officer
at the Center for Women in
Government, defined sexual harassment as "sexual conduct that is
pushed on a woman as a condition
of her working.
"This conduct can be explicit or
implicit, verbal or nonverbal," she

Tateo Found Guilty
The 23-year-old Albany woman who had been charged
with two counts of falsely reporting an incidcnl has been
found guilty, the ASP has learned,
Maria Tateo, of 190 South Allen Street, was sentenced Tuesday in Albany Police Court to 90 days in jail,
However, Judge Thomas W. Kcegan has suspended the
jail sentence providing Tateo abides by the conditions of

continued, "but it is harassment if
the behavior is repeated, unwanted,
and clear."
Cohen added lhal "the problem
of sexual harassment is noihing new
among students and women in the
work force," but that "lately, people have begun to identify harassment as something to be stopped."
Cohen suggested the following
steps be taken by victims of sexual
harassment:
— Document everything that
happened. "This is essential in filing a grievance," she said.
— Talk to other women in the
class and find whether they have
noticed such behavior, or if there is
a history of such behavior. "It is
important to talk to people who will,
not blame you," Cohen explained.
— File a grievance With
SUNYA's Affirmative Action Office. According to Cohen, "ihis
agency provides moral support and
guidance as to the appropriate procedures to take."
Chris Bose, head of the Women's
Concerns Committee, noted that
the committee recently completed a
survey on racial and sexual harassment. The results will soon be
presented to President Vincent
O'Leary. The committee also plans
to offer suggestions to O'Leary to
alleviate the problem.
"This is a prime position for
policy changes," Bose said. "I urge
anyone to become involved in the
issue."
Central Council Creates
Student STOP Committee
by Alan Gardner
In an effort to focus more attention on student issues, several student groups are now involved in
forming a student lobbying group,
SA President Sue Gold said at this
week's Central Council meeting.
The Student Organizing Project
(STOP), the brainchild or SA, SU,
SASU, NYPIRO and OCA, grew
out of their desire lo place students
In a more powerful position on mailers that concern them both on and
off campus, said Gold.
Central Council Chair Peter
Weinstoek said thai STOP will first
deal with the bus issue, the room
rem hike, students voting rights and
women's safely.
STOP membership consists of
two representatives from each dorm
and an off-campus bloc. STOP
legislative coordinator Debbie
Wahlberg will act as a liaison between the Project and the student

SUNYA ended its month-long
absentee voter registration campaign earlier this week as an
estimated 4,600 election applications were sent to regional Boards
of Elections last Monday, according to NYPIRG State Board or
Directors member Leslie Hnber.
"This was the best turnout we've
ever had, even belter than the 1976
presidential election," said Haber,
attributing llie success of the drive
to Ihc combined elTorls ol
NYPIRG, SA, SU and SASU.
Absentee election registration
ends Monday and ballots can be
mailed up until a week before election day, November 4.
Registration applications can be
obtained from the NYPIRG office
in CC 346 or by writing to county
election boards. NYPIRG will mail
the form lo ihc appropriate regional
Board of Elections.
"The most imporiant thing is for
people lo follow through and vole
when they filially receive Ihcir
absentee ballots," I laber explained.
Off-campus students are Albany
residents and (if lhey requested
locally) are urged to vole in person
al designated locutions throughout
Ihc capital area.
Students face continual problems
in elections, Hnber said, pointing lo
a U.S. District Court case litegalcd
approximately three weeks ago by
SUNY Attorney Jack Lester. A city
Board of Elections rejected the
voting applications of 11 students.
As an additional facet of the case,
Lester criticized the absentee ballot
qucsiionnirc section which required
students to identify their current
status as such. Habcr called this a
direct violation of the Civil Rights
Act of 1964, the 15th Ammcndment
and the equal protection clause in
the I4lh ammendmenl, and she
again urges all students who believe
they arc Albany residents to vote at
Ihc polls.
SU's Jim Ticrney and SA's Amy
Adelman carried out absentee voter
registration on the quads, during
dinner and through the dorms.
Ticrney estimates that well over
I,(XX) people signed up lo vote on
ihc quads. "We ran out of ballot
applications. In lad, we had to
write out applications lor the applications," he said.
I label commented that many
students had previously registered
lo vole on Ihclr own, so Ihc number
of registered students on campus is
even larger than the 461X1 number.
In addition, SA handed out
forms during freshman orientations
held throughout ihc summer,

Vice Prez Martin Retires
"Time For A Change"
by .ludie Elsenbcrg
Vice Presidenl lor Academic Affairs David Martin is retiring after
21 years service at SUNYA, effective summer 1981.
"My job has been fascinating
and challenging," Martin explained, "but 1 reli il was time to do
something dilTcrent. My job is allconsuming in delail work. I find
myself not reading literature — I
spend my time reading memos."
Martin told President O'Leary of
his intention to retire last spring in
order lo allow the University lime
lo select a replacement.
A new Vice President will be in
the Office for Academic Affairs
nexl fall. A Search.Committee has
been formed and is actively seeking
nominees through advertisements in
education publications and through
notices to oilier universities.
"The search is never limited to
the external," Martin pointed out.
"There may be Internal nominees as
well." Martin himself was an internal nominee 1'ive years ago.
As Vice Presidenl for Academic
Affairs, Martin's main dulics arc
working on ihe academic budget
and making faculty decisions. Martin plays an important role in granting tenure, deciding salary levels,
interviewing candidates for senior
positions, and hiring new faculty.
Martin was first employed at
SUNYA in 1959, when the school
was still the New York Slate College
for Teachers. As an Assistant Professor, he taught English Education
for three years before becoming the
Social Dean of the Office for
Graduate Studies.
- In the following years Martin
went on to become the Associate
Dean of the Graduate School of
Public Affairs, Acting Dean of
Undergraduate Studies, and Direclor of the Summer Sessions. He
worked as Assistant Vice Presidenl
I'or Academic Affairs lor five years
bel'ore being promoted lo his prcseni position. Martin lias been the
Vice Presidenl for Academic Affairs I'or I'ive years.
"The pattern ol' people in education is to move I'roni one institution
to another," Martin reflected.
"I've been fortunate to be able lo
change jobs on campus. I've bad a
variety of experiences here."
In addition to his other responsibilities, Martin is also the Director
of the Institute of Cypriol Studies
— the study of the Greek Island ol'
Cyprus. Martin describes this as a
"cultural as well as developmental
exchange" between SUNYA and

And so, I filled it out. "Where do

replied, "Go no further. We'll send
it to the Dean for Student Affairs,

I was pleased.
The next morning, a letter from
Director of Student University Activities in the CC James P .
Doellefeld was in my mailbox. He
wished to discuss the incident, it
said. Would I plca.se call?
I decided to visit Mr. Doellefeld.
He was very pleasant about the
whole matter. "This is the first
complaint I've received, and I've
been director of the Campus Center
for four years," he said. I was not
surprised. Had il not been for a dire
stroke of fate and pure desperation
(see above), he would not have
received any at all. For it is evidently not common knowledge that one
can lodge an official complaint
againsl any violator of a nonsmoking area, whether student,
faculty, or Maff, by simply filling
out a form in the CC Info desk, the
Library Circulation desk, or the Office of Ihe Dean foi Student Affairs.
I asked Dean Brown how complniills arc dealt with. "Our first atlempl," he said, "is to resolve any

method is successful in resolving
complaints. A more formal system
can be employed when necessary,
involving formal grievance and
judicial procedures on Ihe campus."
As "person in charge" of Ihe
CC, Doellefeld acted promptly in
responding to my coniplaini form
by notifying Lester Hynes (CC
Food Service) of ihe need for reinforccmenl of non-smoking policy in
ihe CC cafeteria, suggesting dial

Albany Student Press
A California microbiologist is
claiming that toxic shock syndrome, the newly discovered illness
striking women who use tampons,
may actually be scarlet fever.
Patrick Schlievcrt, Assistant Professor of Microbiology and Immunology at U.C.L.A., says that
toxic shock syndrome looks and
acts exactly like scarlet fever. He
says, for example, that the symptoms of toxic shock — a pinkish red
skin rash, fever, diarrhea, low
blood pressure and shock — all correspond to the symptons of scarlet
fever.
Schlievcrt says he examined the
body fluid from 100 toxic shock
syndrome patients, including a few
men and a woman who did not use
tampons. He reports thai in all
cases, the bacterial toxin in the fluid
behaved exactly like a scarlet fever
toxin.
Scientists researching loxic shock
syndrome have attributed the
disease to a kind of staph bacteria.
Schlievcrt says that although scarlet
fever is usually caused by streptoccal bacteria, not staph germs, some
scientists still think staph germs do
at times cause scarlet fever.
Says Schlievcrt, "I'm saying it's
the same disease. It's Just thai sonic
cases are more severe than others.
Mild disease is scarlcl fever, Severe
liii is N
disease is loxic shock syndrome".
Whatever the disease, the Food
and Drug Administration is warning women against using Rely tampons manufactured by Proctor and
Gamble, which have been linked
statistically to loxic shock syndrome.
Macho Mess
A Los Angeles psychotherapist
claims that macho men make absolutely "lousy" husbands.
Dr. Herb Goldberg says he
believes that these so-called
"macho males" are — in his words
— "self-destructive neurotics".
Goldberg, a psychology pro-
fessor at California Stale University, says he has interviewed more
than 2000 female patients, and has
found that an increasing number of
seemingly impassive, submissive
women are walking out on their heman-iype husbands.
One woman interviewed by
Goldberg put it this way: "I'm fed
up with living with a hollow guy in a
dead excuse for a marriage. He
seemed to be such a live wire, but he
turned out to be a dud. . .alive at
20, a machine at .10, burned out by
40."
Said another of her ex-hubby: "I
couldn't stand his fear of feeling.
No joy left in him. No love. Predictable. Mechanical. A sleepwalking
zombie. B-o-r-ing."
Voodoo Vote
If you're having a hard time gelling behind either of the major
presidential candidates this year, a
grand rapids firm may have just the
ihing for you. . . c a n d i d a t e
"voodoo dolls".
The Bullseye Mail Order Company in Grand Rapids is offering
two different models of stuffed

d o l l s . . o n e called
"Ronnie" and the other "Jimmie".
For whatever it's worth, John
Merrill, the founder of Bullseye,
reports that "Ronnie" dolls are
currently outselling the "Jimmie"
dolls almost two-to-one.
Women wearing perfume may
turn men on if
women are dressed in jeans, but they seem to turn
the males off if the women are
wearing skirts instead.
At least, that's what Purdue

Rings and Things
Just a few years ago astronomers
thought only one planet — Saturn
— had rings around it. Then, in
1977, five faint rings were detected
around Uranus. .
Last year, the Voyager spacecraft
photographed a thin ring of reddish
particles around Jupiter, as it passed that giant planet on the way to
Saturn.
Now, Star <$• Sky magazine says
the Earth may once have had rings
as well. The magazine reports thai
Dr. John O'Kccl'e of the Goddard
Space Flight Center suggests that
Earth possessed a ring system —
not once, but several times in the
past.
O'Kccl'e says the Earth had rings
as recently as 6(X),00() years ago. He
adds i he rings were created when a
lunar volcano blasted debris direct-

them to rate the women according
to attraction and social perception:
some women wore jeans and a drop
or two of Jungle Gardenia perfume;
other women wore the perfume and
a skirt, blouse and hose; and still
others didn't wear the perfume at
all.
Baron reports that when the
women were dressed casually and
also dabbed on some perfume, men
found them warni and ro.n;-iitic.
However, if the women were more
formally dressed and wore the same
perfume, the men found them lo be
colder and less romantic.

Regressive
Reactionism
•lay C. Cohen
In his September 30th column, Jeff
Shapiro undertakes the monumental task of
trying to rationally explain and justify the
New Conservative Ethic and Ronald
Reagan's economic policies. Surely, he has
overburdened himself, for neither is possible.
Ronald Reagan's unique brand of conservatism is a blend which reserrccls the antiquated notion of manifest dcsliny in combination with the most dogmatic element of
religion (which appeals lo the Midwest
farmer of only the lowest I.Q.). In effect, il
produces a rather odd synergism which
moves America rapidly ahead into the Middle Ages at best, bul more probably,
towards nuclear holocaust.
The question of equality is well addressed
by the quole "Conservatives believe that
discrimination in any form is wrong and
thai all men should he encouraged lo
develop to their full polential without
restrictions or handicaps," This attests to
the exclusion of women Irom the Conservative Ethic, Further reinforcement can be
seen by examination ofiltc Republican platform (which for the first lime withdraws
support from the FRA) or by the defection
of Mary Crisp from high within the
Republican ranks. Ii is also noteworthy that
the right to have an abortion is ommitted
from Reagan's advocacy of "the Individual's rieiii lo chose."
Mr. Shapiro claims that "Big Business,
Big labor, Dig Brother, and especially Big
Govcrnmcnl ore looked on askance by conservatives." In fact, he says, the word
"Big" 's detested by conservatives "when il
is used as an adjective." Dial is, except
when it is used in front of words like profits
and warheads, The same Ronald Reagan

from his proposed economic policies.
Let us turn to an examination of
Rcaganomics. His version of supply side
economics has the potential to be more
primative than Milton Friedman's
"Negative Growth Economy." The KempRoth Bill (the cornerstone of Rcaganomics)
would cut taxes by 30 percent over the next
three years. This bill has got to be the biggest folly since Rasputin ran rampant
thoughout the bedroom of Czar Nicholas
II. Il will increase the money supply
(broadly defined, M,) at a time when the
Federal Reserve Board and most
economists advocate cutbacks in M,. The
bill would have Ihe same effect as priming
money to fight inflation. Besides, how can
Reagan cm taxes 30 percent while
simultaneously proposing to increase the
Defense Budget? Even Houdini the
Magnificent would have trouble with thai
feat.
Perhaps the biggest joke of all (if you can
believe that there is one bigger than the
Kemp-Roth Bill) is Reagan's plan lo
rcconstucl the inner city slums via the
Kcmp-Gaicia Bill. This gem, called the
"Enterprise Zone plan" (another Kemp
brainstorm) will in effect allow "Big
Business" and "Big Crime," not the impoverished, to rebuild and own the urban
slums. The poor will not be able lo afford
to rcconstucl their homes for the simple
reason that this bill docs not give them
money. The legislation will only be of use in
people or corporations with considerable
capital holdings. Besides, where will Mr.
Reagan find the money lo finance a 20 percent properly tax cut and u reduction in the
Social Security Payroll laxes in these areas?
I el us be charitable. Looking at [lie
brighter side of Rcaganomics and the New
Conservative Ethic, perhaps there is a silvei
lining in a very dark cloud. Al least the pro.
hlern of overcrowding in America will ,ii
long lasi be solved. Can yon Ihink ol a bcl

Since May 1979, police say
there have been 53 sexually related incidents reported In the area loosely
defined as the Pine Hills. The modus
operandi (m.o.) of 38 of these incidents
have been similar, according to Albany
detective Lieutenant H. John Damino.
and probably were committed by the
man called the Pine Hills Molester.
The number of incidents, however,
could be higher since statistics show that
sleeping elsewhere in the same building.
The intruder must have known exactly
which room was hers.
Damino said that if, the intruder does
not run, he puts his hands over the victim's mouth. According to Damino, the
Molester then reportedly says one of
three things: "1 won't be long," "Don't
move around so much," or "I won't hurt
you."
After the woman screams, Damino
said the molester usually exits the same
way he got in. He eludes would-be captors by (leeing into heavily wooded
areas, behind Myrtle, Morris and Lancaster Streets and Madison and Hudson
Avenues.
Police have attempted lo find a common link among victims, but said checks
of weather, time they got home, day of
the week, shopping and drinking
places, schools, buses taken and other
possible links have not shown any common thread. In addition, they have
followed any rumors they hear. For example, there was a rumor last semester
concerning the fact that nine out of 50
social welfare students were victims of
the Molester. Damino said police investigated this thoroughly, but found no
correlation. "It was Just a coincidence,"
he said.
The department has used both detectives and plain clothesmen for
surveillance, Damino said. At any one
time during the ongoing investigation,
manpower has been as high as 14 fulllime officers and as little as four. Police
have been able to lift some fingerprints,
but most have been either smudged or
are only partial prints.
"We have Invested more manpowei
and time in this case than we ever have
in the past," Damino said. "Still,
though, we have an open case. We
lend to believe it's more than one person."
Coverage to date has assumed there
is only one man commuting these
crimes, as all cases have been attributed
to "The Pine Hills Molester". He has
most often been described as a black
man. However, a number of victims
have stated unequivocally, both to

and to police, that the man who attacked them was while. This suggests that

cases, the man has sexually molested
the women by caressing or attempting*
to caress their genital area or performing

In one case the Molester allegedly

her while her husband slept beside her
in the same bed. During the summer, a

He added that this is especially unfortunate because in 90 percent of the
cases, the molester came in through
unlocked or unsafe doors and windows.
Campus R e s p o n s e
In response to the large number of
students attacked (over half of the victims) a President's Task Force On
Women's Safety was organized last (all
by Vincent O'Leary. Along with community groups and other groups on
campus, the task force has done work
with the emergency telephone system
recently installed, the student security

and the escort service. The task force

one would run on schedule. Or, If Plant
Director Dennis Stevens approves It,
night time buses would not run exactly
on schedule and would stop any time
on request. This should be finalized
within two weeks.
SASU Communications Director
Pam Snook said sex related crimes on
campus are common to all SUNY
schools. Currently SASU is working on
a bill for all SUNY campuses to require
minimum safety measures for women.
This, she explained, would call for both
preventative measures and educational
classes. "Women need to know how
they can protect themselves and what to
do If they or a friend run Into an at-
tacker," she said. For example, SUNY
at Buffalo offers a course entitled
"Political Dimensions of the Problem:
Rape" which was designed to study the
crime of rape from a woman's perspective.
At other universities across the country, Northwestern has spent $140,000
to light up dark areas of its suburban
Chicago campus, and a free campus

operating.
A woman-only taxi-service, "The

University in North Carolina, the campus security force is using policewomen
as decoys to apprehend potential rapists

they can't trust anyone."
This crisis level eventually subsides,
she said, in anywhere from a few days
to a month, depending on the victim's
experience and disposition. After that,
they go through a long-term recovery
phase.
Abinader added that the crisis center
in downtown Albany is open 24 hours
and is free service. She urges any victims of the Molester who need treatment or just want to talk, to take the
time to come down. "You can't keep an
experience like that bottled up inside
you," she said.

In addition, the Off-Campus Association is working on a proposal for a city

sexuality and poignance that were missing
before. She is no longer just a bawdy, raunchy belter — she has grown Into a truly accomplished performer. These trails are best

Noone's strong vocals cutting through Ihe Instruments.
The Tremblers' encore was a cover of Elvis
Coslello'5 "Green Shirt". Done In excellent
fashion, the song featured a strong bass line
and highlighted the band's tightness.
It's very rare for a performer of Noonc's
stature lo begin to achieve the level of success he previously enjoyed. My only hope Is
that he will succeed.

To the Edllor:
Upon reading the Friday, Seplember 26,
issue of the ASP, wc who attend Albany
Slate University were appalled at the prominence the editors gave to the article
"Albany Woman Cries Rape." This article,
which concerned false rape reports by an
Albany woman, was written and situated in
the newspaper in a manner that would draw
unneccessary attention towards this incident while simultaneously defiling the
validity of rampant sexual crimes.
One major criticism of the article is that il
did not belong in the ASP, let alone the
front page. The news did not involve
University students nor the University
ilself, and has no affect on them. This type
of sensationalism only enforces the lack o f
a serious alliludc already associated with
rape. Rape in the majority of cases ciled on
September 26 is a rare exception t " sexual
crimes such as rape.
We hope that in the future the editors of
this newspaper will refrain from printing
purely eyc-catchng articles such as this one,
and will make it their intention l o help solve
crimes such as rape rather than lo ridicule
Ihcin.
Names withheld noon request
While we certainly hope thai ihe rape
problem is solved, the ASP is mil lite
police. We are a newspaper and we print
news.
True, the case of false rape reporting is
rare, and that is precisely why it received the
coverage it did. We have been consistent m
reporting real cases and we must also
publish the false ones.
That it diil not involve u University student is irrelevant. The incident occurred in
the Pine Hills region where many female
students reside. In addition, we do not loe
in a vacuum. The ASP has always printed
local and national news as it deemed fit pu
the University
community.
We have not "sensationalized"
n> do a
discredit to the issue of rape. News is news
— and the public has a right to know.

There is a professor on this campus who

Why So Loud?
We get the sneaking suspicion that the folks who run the stereo
down in the Rat don't like other students an awful lot.
Why? Well, we haven't the slightest idea why, but it's becoming a serious threat to the continuation of campus social life.
You see, they don't want us to communicate with one another,
and by blasting their music as louu as their speakers can take,
they're strategy is becoming successful.
What really makes the grade is when a band performs there.
The Rat Runners must fill the group's members in on the plot
beforehand — so that social partiers can't even sit near them —
never mind talk. Play to the heavens is what they do. "Numb our
eardrums and give us sore throats from our straining voices."
Now don'l gel us wrong. We like good music — and we all will
pay lo hear il too, Bui whatever happened to that era when social
interaction and communication were the reasons for a little bar
hopping? A good melody would provide some background. And
wc had a nice time. Why has a bombarding blend of noise hit the
foreground? We've losl our power to talk.
The Rat is not only to blame. Mosl bars nowaday feature 120
decibels per drink — wc are immobilized — lo send messages wc
scream across tables — and when we lire of tin l, we are forced lo
sit like slalucs — guzzling our drugs in silent stupidity.
Perhaps bartenders could hand out memopads with each ro nd
of drinks — then we could send signals lo one another when ihe
absurd desire to communicate arises.
But wc have a belter solution, Make Ihe Ral and other bars
I urn down the volume — put il in its proper place — and allow us
all to get lo know one another a little better.
Why not? Whal are you afraid of? Is il a scary idea to suddenly
interact without llie security of a powerful broadcast? Oi could il
be...that wc simply have nothing lo say lo one anothei ,'
"Surely this must be an ancient proverb: If the situation is killing you, i 7 ihe hell out.

The Albany State men's varsity
cross-country team traveled
Wednesday afternoon to Hartwick
College to face Cortland ^nd Hartwick in d tri-mcet.
The Harriers entered the meet
sporting a rather dismal 0-6 record.
The last time the Danes lost that
many consecutive meets was in
1976.
The Danes pulled out a 17-46 victory over Hartwick but dropped the
race to Cortland 19-38 to achieve a
split on the afternoon, Although
Albany lost to Cortland, Dane
coach Bob Munsey felt "the meet
was much closer than it looked,"
Cortland "really dominated" the
meet, said Munsey, taking the lop
four of five spots, with Albany's
Scott James placing fourth. "James

linebackers (Angelo Saniilli, Dernie
Lombard!) are not tiiat quick, and
thai the speed of the Albany offensive line should be able lo cut off
Fordham's pursuit. "We'll try to
beat them to the perimeter,"
Angelo said.
The keys to Dane offensive success come from two match-ups —
Albany tackles Jim lisposito and
George Brodcur against the Ranis'
Templeton and .lohann. "We must
control the line of scrimmage if we
want 10 win," said Angelo. "We
have lo heal their Iwo defensive

"We're happy about our offensive line, so their si/e doesn't hoiher
us that much, " said Albany coach
Mike Walsh. "They change-up a lot
(shift alignments). It'll take some

"They don't have a whole lot of
team speed," said Dane coach
Ralph Naples, "bin they've got experienced linebackers and defensive
backs, and that pulls the team
together."
One question on offense that remains to be answered in the fourth
week of Ihe season is thai of the
quarterback. Senior veteran Mike
Fiorito has started throughout Ihe
season but, against Brockport last
weekend, Ford alternated him with
sophomore Tom Pratl.
"Philosophically, 1 am opposed
to that," Ford said of quarterback
shuffling. But, lie noted, "We will
do whatever we have lo do to win."
What does that mean? Accordirg

Booters Dropped By Division I Hartwick, 4-1

When the Hartwick College soccer team marched onto the Bleecker

provide a strong challenge but in a
losing effort, 4-1.
"I'm far from disappointed. We
showed thai we're a quality team.
Hartwick played with intensity and
we played a better game because of
it," said Dane soccer coach Bill
Schieffelin.
The opening half of play provided the approximately one thousand
fans at Bleecker with a close scoring
brand of end to end action. Both
teams traded scoring aopporlunitics, but Hartwick seemed more
consistent in sending the ball on
goal. Entering intermission
"They still had to play hard, even
though it was a low point in their

division levels)," said Sergovich.
"We gave them a good game," he

HOLMES PUMMELS ALI IN 10th
followed by a right uppercut.
Before the round was out, he pinned Ali in his corner and hit him with
five jabs, missed a right, and then
hit him with seven more jabs and a
left-right to the head.
It was sad to watch the end to
what had been a legendary career.
Ali earned $8 million plus a percentage of the ancillary revenue and,
on this night in 89-dcgrcc heat, he
earned every penny of it. It turned
out to be one of the easiest fights in
the career of Holmes, who weighed
211 '/i.and it got I he Ali monkey off
the Easton, Pa., fighter's back.
Holmes, who helped Ali prepare
for many title bouts in the early
1970's as a sparring partner, has lived in Ali's shadow for several years.
Ali fans called him a phony champion because he had never beaten
his one-time master in the ring.
Ali himself said that Holmes had
beaten him several times In the gym,
but il would be a different story
when money and glory were on the
line. It wasn't. It was pathetic.
After the fight was stopped, Ali
sat for several minutes on his stool,
his face badly marked below both
eyes and those eyes glazed — as if in
a dream, a bad dream.
Ali was able to leave the ring and
walk away under his own power.
And he almost certainly walked Into
permanent retirement. The fight
was billed as "The I.asi Hurrah,"
almost prophetically.
Former Champ's Bid For
Fourth Crown Decimated
(AP) Larry Holmes ruined Muhammed Ali's bid for a fourth
heavyweight championship when he battered Ali into submission
after 10 rounds Thursday night at the Caesars Palace sports arena.
It was a mismatch.
The end came with Ali sitting on
his stool between the 10th and 11th •
rounds after Holmes had battered
him defenseless in the ninth and
tenth.
Cornerman Angelo Dundee
signalled to referee Richard Green
that Ali had had enough, although
some of Ali's cornermen seemed to
want the fight to continue.
Dundee told the referee: "The
ballgame is over. I'm the chief second and I'm stopping the fight."
The action gave Holmes his eighth
consecutive knockout in defense of
the World Boxing Council title.
Ali had said in the days leading
up to the fight that he was going to
he a miracle worker, but on this
night, he was just a 38-ycar-old man
whose skills were memories.
The former three-lime champion,
who had retired in June of 1979,
also had said before the fight thai
he was a "master of illusion." Once
the bell rang, Holmes stripped that
illusion away.
Ali had performed what he said
was his first miracle by getting his
weight down from the 250's to
217'/2, but he could not bring back
his magic or flashing skills that had
made him one of the great and most
exciting performers in any sport for
many years.
In the ninth round, Holmes, who
remained unbeaten with his 36th
victory, had Ali wobbling along the
ropes with seven head punches. It
seemed Ali might fall, but his lion
heart that had carried him through
so many battles, kept him up.
Holmes shook Ali with Ihrcc more
head punches, then landed four or
five more to the almost defenseless
former champion. Before the round
ended, Holmes had landed four or
five rights to the head in a neutral
corner, then buttered Ali at will in
Ali's corner.
Ali didn't throw a legitimate
punch in the ninth round, and he
didn't in the 10th either, as Holmes
shook him with a right cross,
Before Ali left the ring, Holmes
walked to him and said: "You were
great champion."
Holmes definitely is atop the
heavyweight world now, and his
next opponent probably will be
Leon Spinks, who took the title
from Ali on Feb. 15, 1978 and lost
his World Boxing Association portion back to Ali on Sept. 15, 1978 in
what was Ali's last fight until
Thursday night.
Holmes speared Ali with hard
jabs to the face and body
throughout the fight, as Ali did little. On the Associated Press card,
Ali did not win a round.
Spinks earned a title shot promised by Don King, probably in
February, by knocking out No.
'1-ranked Bernardo Mercado in the
ninth round of a scheduled
18-round elimination match earlier
on the card.
Ali simply could not escape
Holmes' rapier jabs and bombing
combinations to the head and body,
no matter what he tried. He danced
and moved. He feinted with his
head. He tried the rope-a-dope
made famous when he regained the
title for the second time when he
beat George Foreman Oct. 30, 1974
in Zaire.
But they were a younger man's
tricks and could not deliver Ali
from the jaws of defeat this time.
Jose Sulaiman, the WBC president, said the fight would go into
the books as a eleventh-round
knockout.
Ali seemed on his way to winning
the seventh round, moving well and
scoring with several jabs, although
they were not the famed jab of past
fights.
In the final minute of the round,
Holmes came on and jolted Ali with
four stiff jabs. He sent Ali to the
ropes with a hard right to the head,
then another right.
It was the beginning of the end.
Ali's corner, led by Drew Bundini
Brown, pleaded for the former
champ to get going, but he just
didn't have the gas. After a couple
of rounds, his brother Rahman, ran
up the steps to the corner, to try to
rally Ali. Bui cheerlcading was just
hot air on this night.
Ali was jusi a shell on this night,
as reflected on the cards of the three
judges. Each of them gave Holmes
all 10 rounds. Chuck Minker of Las
Vegas scored il 100-90, as did
Richard Steels of Los Angeles.
Duanc Ford of Las Vegas saw it
100-89.
Ali, being unable lo continue,
enabled the 30-ycar-old Holmes,
who now is 36-0, to tie the record of
cighl straight knockouts for
heavyweight title defenses. Tommy
Burns had knocked out cighl
straight opponents inl907-08, but

Albany Residents Debate Security Ordinance
by Amy Kantor
City Hall resembled a battleground last Thursday night when
the Albany Common Council's
Housing and Urban Renewal Com-
J, NEWS Analysis
miltee held a public hearing for a
proposed city security ordinace
which would establish minimum
standards for safety protection by
landlords in rental housing.
They came from the United
Tenants of Albany, Albany
Alliance For Safely, the Council of
Albany Neighborhood Associations, Albany Women Against
Rape, SUNYA and the College of
Saint Rose Off-Campus Associations, NYPIRG, the United
Methodists Society, and the President's Task Force on Women's
Safely.
Representation was not limited to
students. Support extended to
working class people, senior
citizens, couples, and families.
And then there were the
landlords: members of the Capital
District Association of Rental Property Owners, private realtors and
those with property interests.
Concerned Albany citizens appeal for increased security.
"A vote for the security ordinance is a vote for women's safety. "
/?
Ironically, most of those landlords
who spoke against the ordinance
were not even Albany residents.
Many were from Lake George.
Their concern was only with the
property itself, its monetary value,
not the quality of living condition
which must be endur»d by its
tenants.
One after another, the landlords
alluded lo the additional expenses
of the ordinance requirements such
as installation of deadbolt locks,
solid core exterior doors, pin bolts
for secure closing of windows and
adequate lighting for cntranceways.
Some owners expressed common
beliefs that "the security ordinance
would not slop break-ins," and thai
"locks arc only a way lo keep the
honest people out." There were
landlords who said that more secure
apartments "would lock disasters
(such as fire) in."
Many owners said thai tenants
don't use existing locks and could
not "see why they (tenants) don't
want to pay for their own increased
security." Tenants, they argued,
"would pay for il in the long-run
anyway."
Properly Owners Association
President John Fcnimorc said that
total compliance with the proposed
ordinance would cost $7.75 million
for 20,000 housing iniils. He
estimated thai total reals would in-
crease by more than one million
dollars, with the security cost per
apartment rising to $340.
But the Albany Alliance for Safe-.
ty calculated costs to be much lower
with deadbolt locks at costs ranging
from under $8 to $25. They suggested that the prices for more expensive measures such as plexiglass
or protective screens be deducted as
part of income tax reports since
they arc all depreciable items.
The crowd grew restless. AI least
100 people sat on edge in the council chambers. The rest overflowed
out into the hallways.
Babies fell asleep on the
shoulders of their parents. The
meeting continued in a similar pattern, broken up by outbursts such
as
the
reaction
to
the
Fenimore/Alliance for Safety exchange.
The audience fell into an uproar
when a landlord claimed that "girls
invited
intrusion"
by
demonstrating "carelessness."
They spoke as though the molesters
came to homes like girl scouts selling cookies.
One aghast listener shouted,
"How would you like your
daughter to live this way?"

Danes Look To Strike Back Against Fordham

In 1979, il was a 40-yard

minutes remaining, Albany led Fordham 21-0 at halfiime, but couldn't

defensive back, Fordham's 35-28
victory hurt that much more.
