Albany Edges Potsdam For Conference Title
Senator Launches an Attack Against Marijuana
by Laura Fiorentlno
A Queens lawmaker has begun a
"battle" to combat what he claims
is the "widespread and rampant use
of
marijuana
since
its
decriminalization in 1977" by introducing legislation which would
make the possession of minute
quantities of Ihe drug a crime.
"Il is a battle, an all-out war to
save our young people before the
easy access to a bewildering array of
i n t o x i c a t i n g and
addictive
substances pushed on them by pro-
paganda and peer pressure creates a
lost generation of copped-out and
zonked-out k i d s , " said state
senator
Frank
Padavan
(R-Queens).
Padavan, chair of the Mental
Hygiene and Addiction Control
Commitlce, contends that the
stale's 1977 decriminalization law,
which made possession of up to

Gatto'sFree Throws With 0:04 Left
Give Danes 60-59 Overtime Victory
by Bob Bcllafiore
POTSDAM — Despite a deafening Maxcy Hall capacity
crowd, Mike O a t t o sunk two free throws with four seconds left
in overtime to give the Albany Stale basketball team a thrilling
60-59 victory over Potsdam in a wild-and-woolly SUNYAC
Tournament championship game Saturday night,
The win gave the Danes their first-ever outright conference
title (after two ties), and also granlcd (hem an automalic bid lo

night.
Behind by one, 59-58, with 16 seconds remaining in the extra
period, Galto, who hadn'l allcmptcd a field goal for the cnlirc
game, and was 0-2 from Ihc line (including an air ball 1:03
earlier), drove to Ihc basket and was fouled by Polsdam guard
Scoll Franko. The basket was disallowed, and Galto went to
the line. Blocking both the crowd noise and Ihc memory of his
earlier failure al the free throw line, the sophomore hit both attempts, and brought Ihc few Dane partisans lo their feel.
" I could hear the c r o w d , " Ciatlo said. " A n d 1 could also

Students Prepare March on Capitol
by .Indie Elsenbcrg
and Matthew Haddad
SUNY and CUNY sludents
throughout the state,will prolesi tuition increases proposed in Governor Hugh L. Carey's amended state
budget by marching on the Capitol
in downtown Albany this Tuesday,
March 24.
The prolcsl, which is being
organized by the Student Association of the State University (SASU)
and supported by ihe Student
Union (SU) will be held jusl cighl
days before the April 1 budget
deadline.
"We're playing out Ihe last hand
of the tuition drama now" said
SASU Vice President of Campus
Affairs Janice Fine.
Proposed increases of $150 for
tuition and $150 for dorm rales
would raise the cost of attending
SUNY to over $4,300 for the
'81-'82 academic year.
"SUNY students arc already pay-

said. "The average cosl of tuition,
fees, room and board for the
1980-81 academic year In public
colleges nationwide was $2,542.
The cosl of attending SUNY for the
same year was $4,000."
SASU President Jim Stern charged that Chancellor Clifton R.
Wharton and the SUNY Board of
Trustees were "selling Ihc students
out" by refusing to seek additional
funds from the slate legislature and
forcing the students to pay the cosl
of running Ihe university.
Fine agreed, saying "Chancellor
Wharton is cutting SUNY's throat,
and it's the sludents who will
bleed."
An estimated 2,500 lo 4,000 people will attend litis rally, which Fine
feels will be "the largest in Iwo
years."
SU Chair Jim Tierncy is also optimistic aboul the outcome of this
rally.
"Al Ihe Fight the Hike rally Iwo
years ago, 2,500 sludents showed
from I his campus alone, and wc
were successful in convincing the
slate legislature lo rcnpproprialc

lo restore Ihe funds — riglu in front

"We're shaping up even heller

"Everyone seems ready for it.
There's no longer the feeling wc

The rally will begin at II a.m. In

and Assembly Leader Stanley Fink.

Gatto Merits Hero Role
With Game On The Line
POTSDAM — He has only taken a total of 51 shots all season — the lowest
amount of any of Albany's regular players, and he's not known around the
conference as an offensive threat, so il was almost ironic that he would be
the one to go lo Ihc basket with four seconds left, and the Danes behind by
one lo Polsdam in overtime.
The plan that was drawn up was that he would get lite ball, and look lo
pass to teammate Rob Clune, who would lake the last shot.
"I knew if he wasn't open," Mike Gatto said, "it would be me."
II certainly was.
Gatto drove on Potsdam's Scott Franko, who fouled the Dane before he
could get his shot off. Gallo, and most of Ihe Danes, thought.the bucket
should have counted, bill it didn't. Now all Gatto had.to dowas sink two
free throws with the Maxcy Hall crowd of 3,000 screaming forhim to miss.
Gatto weni lo the foul line twice before in the overtime, and came up
empty both limes — his lasi try fell way short for an air ball. Bui now the
game was on Ihe line, so lo speak, and Gatlo knew it.
"I could hear the crowd and I could also hear my stomach shaking,"
Gatlo said. "I tried lo gel Ihe air ball oul of my mind.
"Aflcr I hit the first one, the second one was easy."
The iwo he hit were enough to give Albany a 60-59 win over Polsdam,
and their first Sole possession of lite SUNYAC title.
But it's noi Ihe firsl lime Gallo has won tournaments for the Danes from
the free throw line. In Ihe season's opener against RIT al the Brockporl
Tournament, Gallo hit one of two tries al the end, and Albany won 51-50.
And when Potsdam beat Albany in triple overtime in University Gym
this year, Gatto had a chance to win the game in regulation. But his shot
from the side missed, and Ihe Bears went on to win, 71-70.
"1 was really happy for Gatlo because he could'vc won that firsl game,"
said Albany head basketball coach Dick Sauers. "It's only fining that hebe

"Wc don't want to throw kids in

that this proposal will not deter use

make it more attractive.

He 's glad issue is resolved.
by Debbie Judge
A by-law amendment decreasing
the number of studcnl seals on the
University Senate from 33 to 25 was
approved last Wednesday by mail
ballot.
The amendment eliminated eight
of the eleven graduate studcnl
senate seals which, according to the
senate's Committee on Nominations
and Elections Chair Kendall Birr,
have not been filled in recent years.
Eight additional faculty members
will assume those positions.
Prior to this amendment the
senate voted each year to retain the
student positions. However, accor-
ding to Ihe amendmcnl, student
membership can now be terminated
by a simple faculty rcsolulion,
rather than by amendment. Birr
said, though, that this is a "remote
possibility."
The faculty is also granted the
power, by simple resolution, to
reduce the number of student
senators, or re-apportion the mixture of graduate and undergraduate
student senators.
A simple resolution requires only
a 20 percent quorum of the voting
faculty instend .of the current 40
percent quorum now required to
make a by-law amendment, Birr
said.
A second amendment, also passed Wednesday, states that the Executive Committee would be composed solely of members who hold
certain positions in governance, including council chairpersons.
Also passed is a resolution staling
that the senate chair will call the
faculty senators to meet at least
once every semester to discuss and
advise SUNYA President Vincent
O'Leary on matters of faculty concern and to discuss issues that
should be considered by the senate.
The result of the ballot "seems to
indicate that the faculty do not
want sludcnls on Ihc senale but
want a place lo regard faculty concerns," SA President Sue Gold
commented. Gold viewed the adoption of the resolution and the
amendments as a successful and
positive "middle ground."
The status of student senators has
been an issue since last May when
an attempt to extend the student
membership to four years failed.
Students lost their positions in the
senate until O'Leary called an
emergency meeting to extend the
membership to one year.

U.& Will Consider Force
WASHINGTON, D.C. (AP) Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig, Jr., said Thursday the United States is
eyeing a wide range of options, including military force,
for going "to the source" to stop Cuban-routed arms to
guerrillas in El Salvador. Haig, in testimony to the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said also that the
U.S. has learned that "sophisticated arms" from
Eastern Europe, including advanced air defense
weapons and possibly tanks, have been introduced into
Nicaragua. The former NATO commander stressed that
no military action is in the works to interdict the flow of
arms in Central America. But, "it is the responsibility of
the executive branch to consider a whole range of options," including political and economic moves, he said.
"And I can assure you that process is under way."
Military action against Cuba, he said, "should not be
. . . excluded from any consideration." Haig disclosed
that the administration is studying "intensely" whether
to cut off U.S. aid to Nicaragua because of daily reports
of arms shipments from Eastern Europe. That aid was
suspended after reports that large-scale arms shipments
were being introduced into El Salvador through
Nicaraguan territory. Haig said the U.S. has observed
"some moderation" in the flow of arms into El
Salvador and has received "some private assurances"
from Nicaragua that "they won't permit that country to
be used as a base for that subversive activity in El
Salvador." However, he also disclosed that U.S. intelligence agencies report that some Nicaraguan officials
apparently arc attempting "to find an alternative route"
for the arms shipments.
Senate Trims Budget More
WASHINGTON, D.C. (AP) The Senate Budget Committee, doing President Reagan's bidding with unusual
dispatch, applied the final touches Thursday to $36.4
billion in spending cuts. Majority Leader Howard
Baker, Jr., vowed floor action on the blueprint next
week. Chairman Pclcr Domcnici, R-N.M., won a final
committee vote of 20-0 on the overall package, which
faUs heavily on social programs and actually trims $2.3
billion more than the president asked in the areas under
the panel's purview. In all, Reagan wants $48.6 billion
slashed from the fiscal 1982 budget he inherited from
Jimmy Carter. Congressional aides said the remaining
savings could be found in other legislation or in administrative actions that don't require statutory approval. Domcnici later hailed the vote as proof that even
Democratic liberals on the panel "arc feeling the
pressure from constituents" to limit federal spending.
He called the committee's action the first step in "the
most historic exercise in restraint that has even been attempted by the Congress," but conceded the package of
reductions faces a hazardous course in the House.
Harris to Receive Sentence
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (AP) Jean Harris spent a calm
last day in the Westchester County jail on Thursday,
winding up her tutoring of inmates before today's
sentencing for the murder of Scarsdalc Diet doctor Herman Tarnowcr. There were no repeats of the explosive
outburst which on Wednesday officials attributed to the
57-ycar-old former school headmistress' nerves over the
minimum 15-years-to-lifc prison term she faces. "She's
behaving herself today. Sire's been very calm," said
Albcn Gray, Jr., county correction commissioner. But
Gray said Mrs. Harris was "highly anxious" about the
pending court appearance. Her lawyer, Joel Aurnou,
angry at reporters who wrote about Mrs. Harris'
obscenities and "unladylike language" upon being
handcuffed Wednesday for transportation to a medical
examination, hung up on a reporter who called to ask if
he was ready for the sentencing. "Well, if we were, some
of the people who work for the news media really screwed it up," the attorney snapped. Mrs. Harris, whom jail
officials have placed on a 24-hour "suicide watch," will
be at least 72 years old when she is eligible for parole for
Tarnowcr's murder.
Carey to Combat Crime
NEW YORK, N.Y. (AP) Goy. Hugh Carey established
a Blue Ribbon commission to combat crime Thursday
and at the same time again proposed a constitutional
amendment to merge the state's seven kinds of trial
courts into a single system. Under the merger plan, the
governor would appoint all justices of the Supreme
Court with the advice and consent of the state Senate, a
move which would appear to be resisted by local politicians who have their eyes on patronage lists. To be
enacted, the amendment would have lo be approved by
two consecutive sessions of the Legislature and then be
submitted lo the voters in a referendum. Carey told a
Unfair Practices Reported
WASHINGTON, D.C. (AP) A record number of unfair
labor practice and employment representation election
cases were filed by individuals, unions and employers
during the first quarter of 1980, the National Labor
Relations Board said Thursday. The NLRB is an independent federal agency administering the nation's
primary labor laws. It does not initiate cases; it processes
those filed with it. The agency said that in the first three
months of last "year, 11,234 charges alleging that

SA Promises to Give Classes Interest on Funds
by Beth Sexer
_ ^ ^ „ ^ _ _ _
Central Council passed a bill
March 4 ruling that the classes will
receive six percent interest on
monies held in the SA agency account dating back lo March I.
The decision followed a controversy between SA and the classes
as lo whether classes are entitled to
ihe interest class money cams in the
agency account which, according to
Senior Class President Gary Schatsky, equals 14 percent.
Schaisky, however, is not
satisfied with the bill's passage.
"They're trying to appease us with
Ihe six pcrcenl offer," he said.
,
The "rock bottom" settlement
Schaisky is willing to consider-, he
said, Is an eight percent interest rate
retroactive to June I, 1980, as SA
prcsidcnl.
The preferred solution, though,
is that the classes would receive the
entire 14 percent interest, and then
they would pay SA for the expenses
ihcy incur in maintaining Ihe classes'
funds, he said.
SA provides basic services to the
classes such as computer time, accounting, elections, free checks and
check cashing, toll lines and tic
lines. According to Gold, the interest rate on the monies SA maintains for Ihe classes is entered into
Ihe general fond and is also used lo
cover the expenses providing the
classes with those services.
Gold commented thai Ihe six percent orrcrcd the classes "gives
them a nice size of their Interest,"
and "still allows SA to gel compensation" for handling Ihe classes'
funds.
Schaisky insisted, though, that
SA is receiving too large a profit,
which he estimated as amounting lo
$3,000 fiom the 14 percent interest
rale.
If a satisfactory solution is not
reached, said Schaisky, he will consider bringing SA before the SA
Supreme Court lo force SA lo
release his class' funds. Schaisky
would then place class funds in

Each class, Schatsky said, would
decide individually whether it wants
to sue SA for their class funds.
Last October 20, Schatsky said he
submitted a voucher to SA Controller Ira Somach to withdraw the
senior class' $19,000 from Ihe account agency. The voucher was
never processed.
ir the classes' funds are placed in
Ihe Credit Union, Schatsky said, an
SA official would still be responsible for signing vouchers to
withdraw money. Since class dues
are collected through a university
hilling process, the appropriation of
funds musl be overseen. This task
was delegated lo SA since it involved student monies.
However, Gold said that if class
money was transferred to the Credit
Union, she saw no reason why SA
should assume the burden of

Matthew Chachere, coordinator
or the Shorcham Defense Committee, appeared at SUNYA March 4
to condemn the Long Island
Lighting Company's (LILCO) attempts to gain a permanent injunction against all demonstrations at
Shorcham, a nuclear plant under
construction on Long Island.
LILCO is also trying to collect up to
$2 million in damages from
organizers and participants of a
civil disobedience action which look
place on September 28, 1980. The
damages have not been specified.
"This is just one more area where
our rights will be restricted in the
folure," Chachere remarked.
•• Chachere said that at court hearings held a week before the planned
demonstration, LILCO questioned
him about his involvement with the
Shorcham organization's meetings,
participants, and other actlviics. He
was asked lo submit petitions circulated by the group, mailing lists,and further information concerning
the personal incomes of members.
"This violated our Constitutional
right for freedom of assembly," Speaker Matthew Chachere
He defends anli-imkes.
said Chachere.
that government courts were being
He added that LILCO's justifica- used to enforce LILCO's demands.
In early December LILCO retion for making these demands was
that the First Amendment applies to quested that six anti-nuclear acgovernment agencies- and not to tivists, including Chachere, submit
corporations. Chachere countered to depositions. Chachere claims
that LILCO acquired the names of
these people through "illegal
surveillance and infiltration" or
meetings.
According to Chachere, though
the defendants have subpoenaed
several of LILCO's Directors to
submit to depositions, LILCO has
supplied only two of the lowest level
public relations officials.
The case is viewed by both sides
as a "test-case." The national
Emergency Civil Liberties Committee (ECLC) is representing the
defendants since the committee
believes, Chachere said, that this
case may signal the start of a new
pro-nuclear offensive.
Chachere says that "LILCO has
already won by involving many
people in costly litigations for a
number of months."
LILCO stated, according to
Chachere, that they would drop the
damage suit if the anti-nuclear
organizers would accept the injunction against future demonstrations
at Shorcham.
Chachere said that "LILCO is
trying to deny Long Island residents
their constitutional rights of free
speech, assembly, and dissent. They
are trying to harass us into silence."

Damino noted that child abduction reports in Albany were rare'

Troy police arc still following
leads in the sexual molestation and
killing of a six-year-old girl, while in
Albany police are responding to a
number of reports of attempted
child abduction.
Albany Police Lt. John Damino
said the Troy killing may have led
'•J Ihc numerous reports in Albany,
some of which have been found lo
be false.
The nude body of the murdered
child in Troy, Charlcne M.
O'Brien, was found Monday,
March 9 in a clump of brush approximately ten blocks from her
home. The girl had disappeared the
day before on her way home from a
cousin's house. Police are not sure
of Ihc exact time of Ihe killing.
Last Wednesday, Troy police
released a description of Ihc
suspected killer as a white male
under 30 years old, approximately 5
feet 9 inches tail, 120 pounds, with
medium length brown hair. Approximately 20 full and part-lime
Troy invcsligalors have been assigned lo the case.
On March II, an 11-year-old
Albany girl reported that she fought
off an allackcr who tried to lure Iter
into his car. The allackcr, she
claimed, tore her clothing and
broke her glasses. The would-be abductor fled, she reported, after she
screamed and stabbed him with a
pen.

David l.ippman appeared at SUNYA Wednesday night as pan of a national lour in support of the leftist forces in El Salvador, his repertoire
featuring such works as "San Salvador Sweepstakes," "Shul down the

Hilled as an "acoustic provokc-rockct from San Francisco," the 30-yearold l.ippman sang and led choruses in a folk style while accompanying
himself on the guitar.
Lippman has been taking his message lo the barricades since the sixties,
when he wrole a song on Ihc occasion of a United Fruit Company
recruiter's visit lo a college campus, and was accused of Inciting Ihc
disorder that followed as students condemned the company's support lot
the Guatemalan government and evicted the rccruiici from ihc campus.
In Ihc pasl year Lippman has sung from the windows of occupied ROTC
buildings ai Berkeley, performed on lop of a trash can al ihc HI Salvador
consulate in San Francisco, and loured with Ihc Reagan lot Shah CommitIce as George Shrub, singing CIA agcnl.
Envisioning a "new society" as his goal, l.ippman works through music
in the belief thai "no movement is as strong as it could be without songs."
His main concern is ihc securing of "ihc people's rigid to sclfdelerminalion."

Race Lists Sold for Use in College Recruitment
PRINCETON, N.J. ( C P S ) The
College Entrance Examination
Board has provided at least 11 colleges with requested lists of only
black or only while high 'school
students, which the colleges then used in their own recruiting programs
during the 1979-80 academic year.
Jan Harvey, head of the Sludcnl
Search Survey, the College Board's
Princeton subsidiary thai actually
sold the lisis, says ihe computer
niaich-ups of colleges and the kinds
of students Ihcy waul is "looked on
as n service, no! discrimination."
She adds lhal requests for lists of
students of one race or another are
nol uncommon. "Usually," she
says, "it's because Ihcy offer
special minority scholarships or curriculum, and ihcy wo.nl lo reach the
righi market."
Harvey could offer no explanation of why a college might waul a
lisl of exclusively-Caucasian
students, hui emphasized Ihe College Hoard docs nol ask for reasons.
The lists of students arc compiled
from people who lake any of the
College Hoard's many exams — the
Scholastic Aplilude Test and other
enlrance exams for graduate,
medical and law schools. Sludcnl
characteristics arc gleaned from the
Student Descriptive Questionnaire
filled out when the student registers
for one of the tests, according to
Julia Galuska of the College
Board's Education Testing Service
(ETS).
Galuska stresses that registrants
can choose (o simply ignore the
questionnaire/or just answer some
of its questions.
The questionnaire asks students
lo Identify their high school grade
points, how much money they expecl their patents lo contribute lo
their college costs, what ihcy intend
to major in, and personal nails like
gender and race.
The College Hoard, through its
Student Search Survey subsidiary,
then sells the Information in lisl
form to College Board member ins l i l u t i o n s and g o v e r n m e n t sponsored scholarship programs for
12 cents per name.
In breaking the story of the race
listing in its February IS issue,
the newspaper In These Times
charges the lists enable colleges lo
"overlook minority students and
concentrate on whiles only."
Harvey disagrees, saying ihe
system works "very much lo the
students' advantage" because it
helps them learn of available programs and scholarships.
The lists, moreover, have drawn
charges that the College Board
engages in a different type of
discrimination altogether.
The privately-owned American
Student List Company sued the
College Board in 1975 because of its
refusal ro make to lists universally
available to anyone willing to pay
the price.
Harvey says, "but the College
Board decides the policy, and
they're very particular about the
confidentiality of these lists, and
,that students know who these list
arc going to. They're not planning
lo change that by selling lists to
"Oh, it's been going on forever," commercial groups."
Complex Forms Hurt the Elderly
by Nora Klrb>
The complex wording of certain
government documents may be
preventing elderly people from
receiving services ihcy deserve, according to a sludy recently completed by SUNYA Reading Department professors Scan A. Walmslcy
and Richard I.. Allinglon.
Walmslcy explained lhal approximately 90 volunteers above the age
of 60 were given a standardised
leading lest to determine Ihcir
reading ability,
"Of ihe sample we lesicd,"
Wnlmslcy said,"65 percent read
al less than an eighth grade level,
whereas 98 percent of documents
for government services were
beyond the ninth grade level."
The objectives of the study were
to identify Ihe reading demands
made on the aged in Ihe areas of
health and community resources,
and lo assess the effects of simplifying these reading demands through
modification of reading materials.
However, after revising certain
documents and testing a new sample of elderly people the results were
somewhat inconclusive, said
Walmslcy.
"The problem is much more
complicated I ban we originally
thought,"
said
Walmslcy.
"Simplifying the forms Isn't Ihe
answer. The reading problems of
the elderly have much more lo do
wilh non-reading problems."
Walmslcy explained thai some
elderly people have a "menial set"
or rigid frame of reference that may

Gourricd, Ihe assistant majority

this year.
Kostas, however, believes that
ihe future o f the marijuana
recriminalizalion bill is not dead,
" I t took us three years to pass the
anti-drug paraphernalia law, but we
finally got il through. This bill is the
same kind of thing," said Kostas.
However, even if Ihe bill passes
and the possession of marijuana is
considered a misdemeanor in certain quantities New York State's
laws will still be comparatively lenient to the .nation as a whole.
" A C O D is weak in that il just
treats possession as a misdemeanor.
It's still pretty lenient, said Kostas.

Nominations and Elections, which
included two student representatives, presented a resolution instructing the faculty senators to
meet separately at least once a
semester to discuss problems of
primary concern to faculty. They
also recommended the two amendments. The resolution was passed,
but lack of a quorum blocked
passage of the amendments. A mail
ballot was called for, requiring a
minimum of 470 ballots for approval. 436 ballots were returned in
favor of the first amendment, 86
opposed, and 4 abstained.
Birr expressed relief that the
faculty reached a decision regarding
the amendments. "There was an inability to get a clear-cut decision on
these matters," he said, "to get a
quorum or sufficient return on the
mail ballots." He jokingly added
that the faculty may have voted out
of desperation, saying, "now we'll
be able to talk about something
else."

Students Must Pay:
Justice Prevails
Wharton Logic
Alan Weiner
The purpose of the state university
system is to provide low cost education to
New York state residents. The idea being
that higher education would become affordable to those who could not otherwise pay
for ah education at all. The proposed increases in. fees for SUNY will drive its cost
over S430O. This will reduce accessibility to
the school and make education a luxury for
only the rich. Such an occurrence will
undermine the purpose for which SUNY
was created.
This situation that we have now been
placed in is a result of the misjudgements
that the chancellor and board of trustees
have made. They, in conjunction with the
governor, have allowed SUNY to bear an
ever increasing burden in financing the
school system.
This year with the proposed tuition increase of SI50, supplemented by increases
in room rates of $150 and board, SUNY
will be providing more additional funds to
the school than the state. SUNY will
generate S53 million this year as compared
10 only 539 million by the slaic.Thc idea of
public higher education is that ihc state will
subsidize the greater part of ihc school's expenses. However this is no longer true. The
chancellor in asking for a tuition hike and
has continually evaded his mission of keeping SUNY a low cost high quality institution. He has acted to soon in his request.
Wharton should have gone to the
legislature seeking the additional funds of
$20 million so that the tuition hike ssould be
unnecessary. But he has chosen not to. An
examination of the nasi wilt infer that he
nas once again mivapnXtcd SVHarton V>sic.
MinuaBj
.• the past year- the
^ ftarxeitor has ,-roven to be insensitive to
srudcnr needs. He has constantly atoided
going to the legislature to seek additional
funding. Instead, he has chosen to pass
these costs on to student. His rationalization is that SUNY must take its share and
P'osc its fiscal responsibility. Yet in 1979, a
year of a tight budget, the chancellor
followed this p-emisc and accepted a
budget deficit. In that year, however, the
slate spent 515 million to build a domed
stadium in Syracuse. This seems to prose
that the state has the money for svhat it
deems as a priority. SUNY is a priority and
Wharton should hase proven that and
fought for funding that year. But he decided to follow his faulty judgements and
SUNY »as stuck. In addition, last semester
rhe chancellor decided to make dorms selfsufficient. He claimed that this would prompt the state to give additional funds for
academics'. This generalization also appears
to be misled as we face another budget
deficit due to the lack of state funding. This
year by proposing a tuition hike the
chancellor has made ihc same kind of decision. The siudenis of SUNY are once again
being victimized by Wharton logic.
This logic of Wharton's is in sharp contrast to his counterparts in the CUNY
system. They have stood ihcir ground and
have continually fought and prevented increases in tuition at their schools. Bui our
chancellor and board of trustees have noi
fought to protect SUNY's mission. This
seems to stem from their lack of respeel for
student involvement in ihe decision making
process.
Recently during finals week last semester.
Chancellor Wharton proposed the current
SI50 room increase. By announcing his proposal for increasing rents at the close of the
semester, then asking for ii to be voted on
before many campuses reopened, he has
continued his policy' of raising student fees
uithout allowing student participation or
discussion. Thus, illustrating his lack of
respect for student insolscmcnt in the decision making process. In addition, one of
Ihe trustees in opposition lo student atlendencc at ihc meeting asked, "What
ssould your parents ihink of you cutting
classes lo proles! increased tuition?" Such a
statement infers a lack of respect and inscnsiiisiis for students.
This attitude, sshich is shared by the
chancellor, has been evident in his outright
rejection of ail proposals concerning SUNY
that "were made by the Student Assembly.
W h a n o n has also tried to avoid student
To Ihe Editor:
In response to Mike Fricd's letter to the
editor on Friday, February 2, 1981, the
University Student Judicial Committee
(USJQ would like to clarify some of the injustices pointed out by Mr. Fried.
First, we would like lo address the issue
of parliamentary procedure. Judicial
boards at SUNYA are not required to use
parliamentary procedure. At the outset of
the hearing in question Ihe chair explained
to all concerned parlies what would occur
at the hearing, as is done before every USJC hearing. The witnesses were asked to
speak one at a lime. Unfortunately this did
not happen. They continued io speak out of
turn and to talk among themselves while
othets were trying to speak. This required
the chair io warn the witnesses that if this
disruptive behavior continued they would
be asked to leave Ihc hearing. Luckily ihis
was not necessary, since the witnesses were
able to abide by procedure.
Secondly, and most importantly, to say
thai "the board seemed to have taken the
stance that the defendant was already guilty
before the case was finished being heard,"
is to do a grave injustice to the entire student J-Boards have been operating wiih the
approval and confidence of both ihe administration and the student body. Dean
Kirchner, Assistant Dean of Student Affairs, has chosen to accept out recommendations almost every time. This should say
something for the ability of the board to
serve as effective and objective judges of
their peers.
Thirdly, Mr. Fried's final complaint
regarding the vagueness of Student
Guidelines, in regard to ihe violation in
question was totally out of context. The

opinions in his scheduling of the four open -as in it. Wc are citizens and more impormcclina which the trustees arc obligated lo tantly, wc arc soters in this state and our

board docs nol write Student Guidelines,
nor does il have any control over who is
referred for their violation. Rather, ihe
board's purpose is lo hear alleged violations
against Student Guidelines and to determine innocence or guilt and, if necessary,
an appropriate sanction. Additionally our
decision is only a recommendation to the
Dean of Student Affairs. If cither parly is
dissatisfied they have the opportunity to appeal the final decision.
If Mr. Fried is unhappy wiih Student
Guidelines, he, like any other studcnl, has
the right to suggest revisions to Student
Guidelines to either Ihe Dean's Office or lo
the Student Affairs Council.
Mr. Fried's statement about the board's
uncourteous and unconcerned attitude is innacuraie. The board handles every case
wiih the utmost care. We fully realize the
importance of a fair and unbiased hearing.
At the same time we expect that all concerned behave in an appropriate manner. Mr.
Fried's question regarding whether or not
he should stand when the board re-entered
the room after a brief recess was far from
appropriate.
In conclusion the board would like the
University Community to know thai wc

Balancing Act
To Ihe Editor
As an Albany Slate student I stould lit;
to comment on the student groups which
are vociferously protesting the propow.-d
tuition hikes while purporting to speak on
my behalf.
Perhaps they don't understand inflation
Last year's inflation rate ran at aboul 13
percent, probably higher for the unisersit;.
with its high energy costs. At that rate ihis
year's $450 semester tuition should rise to
about $510 next year just to stay even. Tr.i
fact is we are paying our bills with cheap*
and more easily attainable dollars.
Furthermore, these groups are operating
under ihe assumption that it is an inh;-.'
responsibilily of the governmem to pro .. :.
free or subsidized education io the rr.i- .
historically this is a somewhat rare privilege
sshich we are fortunate to enjoy.
It is also true that, given cooperatr. e
parents, any person of any economic statjin this nation has the means available
through aid and loan programs to attend a
quality university (sorry, if that offends an>
of the Marxists in the Political Science
department). Therefore, pleas of sesere student economic hardship do noi seem plausible. The proposed Reagan cuts in student
aid, as seen thus far, will do nothing lo
change this fact.
The SUNY administrators are not our
enemies; ihey are caught in a balancing
act between holding down costs and maintaining academic standards. Students who
decry rale hikes oui-of-hand contribute lo
the lowering of our educational quality:
student leaders such as these serve only lo
degrade the university. Perhaps the time
has come for the rational students a! this
school to inierrupi their quiei progression
towards a degree and seize ihe reins of student power from hands of incompetence.

But Hewson's style doesn't always work.
On "Another Time, Another Place," his flat

War is Peace
David Prlehe
It didn't seem possible seven years ago,
but it has come to pass that Reagan is the
president. As soon as he ascended into tht
office, he evaporated the hopes or his critics
by calling for massive budget cuts and accelerating Carter's aid to the government of
El Salvador. While his supporters compete
in budget-slashing, those lo be affected by
his actions wait in limbo.
In this space three weeks ago, Bob Cohen
investigated the. effects of the proposed
budget cuts. While I applaud his effort, the
opponents of these cutbacks should view a
large welfare system as more of a necessary
evil than a permanent phenomenon, for il
exists only to strengthen the economic
system by ameliorating the unequal
distribution of wealth and income. In this
column I am concerned with what the
Reagan actions tell us about the character
of American politics, and thus what may be
in store for the next few years.
In an effort to predict the post-World
War II relationship between the military
and the civilian institutions, political scientist Harold Lasswell coined the term
"garrison stale." In this picture, every
aspect of civilian life would be subjugated
to the needs of the military; there would be
a permanent war mobilization. To be sure,
he was only describing one possible civilmilitary scenario, but he did live to see the
creation of this country's first significant
peaceful army. Considering the following
four points, it appears that military considerations are strongly figuring fn the
Reagan administratrion's calculations.
get guns to go along with Milton Friedman's advice. And Reagan was so
transparent in discussing his South Africa
policy in an interview with Walter Cronkite
that even the press (for example, Carl
Rowan) noted that blatant racism was being
condoned for strategic consideration.
Domestic Surveillance. In an advisory
report., the Heritage Foundation recommended increased surveillance of political
opponents, including anti-nuclear and antidraft advocates. This message was taken to
heart, for a CIA proposal for "a changing
world" (or, a world where military needs
come first) "removes Ihe requirement that
intelligence groups must have 'probable
cause to believe' that a U.S. person or corporation is 'an agent of a foreign power'
before break-ins, physical surveillance, or
infiltration could be used to obtain informalion from them (AP, March II). In a
military-conscious world, the governmeni
must secure "unity" behind its positions,
so opponents stand in the way. I suppose
we'll sec an Un-American Aclivities Committee next.
In these moves, the president may claim
that he has received a "mandate" for
change. However, if policy were determined by Ihe public opinion poll, Reagan
would have to change his views on abortion
and the ERA. More importantly, how can
any mandate be seen from an election with
such a low voter turnout? It is clear that
more people than ever arc alienated from
politics as usual. Furthermore, the president is an elected official and noi ihe

Rally i
What's the best adjective you can think of to describe a $150
tuition increase?
Hey! That's pretty good.
We've been coming up with similar ones ourselves. We've also
been trying to think of ways to fight the increase.
And the best idea wc can think of is to support this Tuesday's
rally.
Wc must now consolidate a thousand meager voices into one
strong, powerful roar of opinion.
As a solid block of outraged students, wc must peacefully descend upon the State Capitol and let our legislators see and hear
that the students of SUNY will not condone the scheduled tuition
increase, cannot afford the increase and will not allow the board
of trustees to pass on costs to us year after year.
And if our pre-rally publicity has been effective, then our
legislators will be forced to watch this rally very closely, as they
peck out of the windows of their plush offices.
Wc all must be there Tor them lo sec us. For if apathy reigns
and the turnout is poor, then our elected officials will turn back
to thcir desks and continue thcir bureaucratic process of paper
shuffling. The work and sweat of our student leaders will be
wasted, and tuition will continue to skyrocket.
But if several thousand or us come to the rally, then our
legislators will be forced to slop, look and hear us, and wc will be
heard.
Wc need everyone's support.
Even if you arc financially well-off and this increase won't hurt
you, then come and fight for your fellow students who can't afford it. Fight lo preserve ihe dying philosophy of low-cost public
higher education.
We also urge all professors lo excuse students from thcir classes
in order to attend the rally.
We, the students are the only ones left lo protest and prevent
this tuition increase.
What is the only thing we can say aboul a tuition increase?
No.

The Budget. At the same time that the
budgel-culters launch an attack on "sacred
cow" welfare programs, military spending
will be dramatically increased over the next
three years. It seems as if this money is to be
spent for no other reason than to have a
large military budget; In all seriousness can
wc look at an absurdity such as the MX
missile system without laughing? Strangely
enough, the same people who claim thai
government spending is the cause of inflation are those who support this fatted calf
the most; this certainly indicates thai the
military is to occupy a special role. If
Reagan is really against big government's
inflationary spending, then why would he
support this?
El Salvador. Haven't wc been here
before? Reagan has sent "advisors" and
talked or a naval blockade to support the
ruling junta against rebels with a claim lo
popular support. Al least Reagan, Haig,
and even the press are honest; they have admitted that there is absolutely nothing 10
gain in El Salvdor except an increase in US
"prestige" and "influence." Once again,
we feel lite "cold wind or a draft; it may be
necessary to sacrifice a lew lives to support
this arrogance. Interestingly enough, world
opinion thut sided with the U.S. actions on
Afghanistan is very critical of these moves,
again a throwback to the Vietnam days.
Human Rights. Besides placing an
outspoken critic of human rights policies as
the Undersecretary of State for Human
Rights, Reagan lias made it clear that
military needs will come first. Mililury aid
to Chile Is being resumed — now Chile will
sovereign nowcr of the state. Despite
misconceptions to the contrary, the president docs not have the power lo
singlehandcdly rule the nation. Once again
though, military questions most often provoke a response that no public debate is
needed, and the quest for "leadership" has
fooled many people into thinking of the
president as the solitary political actor.
Military cxegencics have strongly infiltrated the political arena, as seen in these
four areas. 1 submit thai this is an increasingly present danger to Ihe individual
autonomy of public and private institutions. In this space last year, I noted that
the American Olympic athletes were used as
political pawns, and as wc move into what
appears to be a permanent policy or defense
priority, It is certain that the governmeni
will move into new areas of domination and
create new victims. This policy will fuel the
arms race, bring the chance for instant
destruction closer, and threaten human
rights in Ihe United Slates and in the countries of the world thai serve as political
pawns for the military conflicts of the
superpowers.
Al least il appears thai a response is
developing, especially in foreign countries
that view the U.S. as a threat to world
peace. Reagan's victory has made it respectable to be a conservative, and there arc
ominous signs of racism. But these misfortunes are likely to develop a response, a
countcrmovemcnl; this sequence of events
is occuring in Britain, And this movement
had better hurry . . , there's three years
left.

Danes, Sauers guided them to a
23-5 record — their best ever, their
first outright SUNYAC Championship, and their third straight NCAA
Regional berth.
It is the first time that Sauers has
won the National Coaches Association award. The organization consists of all collegiate basketball
coaches in the nation, divided into
eight districts. District II includes
all Division III schools in New
York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
Delaware, West Virginia, Puerto
Rico.
"I'm very flattered that enough
of the people we played thought
enough of me to vote for me," said
Sauers, whose career record now
stands at 430-195 for a .688 percentage.
The Albany Stall' men's tennis team won four matches on lliclr Florida
lour, including two exhibitions. (I'liolo: Dave Ashcr)
by Larry Kahn'
With whipping winds making the
30 degree temperatures feel even
colder it's hardly ideal weather for
tennis. Yet the Albany State men's
varsity tennis team began their spring season last week, sweeping two
regular season and two exhibition
matches on a five day Florida tour.
"Wc set this as a goal for
ourselves this fall," said Albany
men's tennis coach Bob Lewis. "1
think this kind of experience, working together toward a common goal
and traveling together, brings us
closer together as a team. 1 was extremely satisfied — it was a good
experience for all of us."
Lewis pointed out thai the trip
was not funded by the Athletic
Department. "None of this was
budgeted. Wc earned il on our own
selling donuts and showing
movies," he said.
The team began their road tour
on March 8 in Orlando where they
trounced Kcnyon College, 7-2, in an
cxhibilion match. The squad also
managed lo squeeze in a half day at
Disneyworld. They then journeyed
to Belmont Abbey for their second
exhibition stop and triumped, 6-3.
The Danes opened their regular
season the next day against Stetson
University crushing them, 8-1.
Barry Levlne (7-4 in the fall), Fred
Gaber (8-3), Rob Karen (10-1),
Dave Ulrich (5-3) and Andy Diamond (4-5) captured the top five
singles matches for Albany. Dave
Lerncr (7-3) suffered the only setback in the sixth slot. In the doubles
competition Lcvinc and Gaber,
Karen and Ulrich, and Diamond
and Dave Fcincrman all teamed up
lo sweep in straight sets.
The final stop on Albany's
journey was Melbourne, where they
romped over Ihc Florida Institute of
Technology, 8-1. Levlne lost at
number one, 7-6, 6-3, but
everybody else won — some not as
easily as others.
Gaber pulled out a victory over
FIT's Caspar Dcsloncgo after dropping the first set, 6-7, 6-3, 6-2.
Lalcr, in doubles, Gaber got
togclhcr with Lcvine to sneak by the
Haynle-Zadan pairing in a pro-set
match, 8-7.
The team is coming off a fantastic fall campaign which saw them
streak to a 5-1 finish capped off by
their second consecutive SUNYAC
championship and their fourth in
seven years under Lewis' direction.
In fact, in the 10 years Lewis has
been Albany tennis coach, the
Danes have compiled a 97-32
record.
But this season the Danes will be
facing a very tough schedule including matches with Division I
powers Colgate and West Point.
"There arc at least seven or eight
tennis teams on our spring schedule
which are capable of beating us,"
noted Lewis. "We will have to play
at our best if we expect to win any
of these matches."
The going may gel tough for the
young nclmcn, but Lewis has plenty
of strength and balance of his own
to counter with. Co-captains Levinc
and Gaber lead the attack for the
Danes at numbers one and two,
respectively. Levinc, who wchl to
the Division III Nationals last year
as a freshman, has a career record
of 25-10 and Gaber, also a
sophomore, is 18-4.
Two Gymnasts Compete In Regionals

Final Four Familiar Road For Bears
by Paul Schwartz
The road is a familiar one for
Potsdam's basketball team. Two
years ago the Bears were the surprise team in Division III, knocking
off highly-ranked Stony Brook and
using that impetus lo reach the final
four. In the finals of that tournament, Potsdam came within one
jump shot of upsetting three-time
champion North Park, and the
Hears settled for the runner-up spot
in the nation. It was a position the
Dears could accept.
"Wc felt fortunate to be in the
final four two years ago," said
Potsdam head basketball coach
Jerry Welsh.
Well, Potsdam is back ;imong Ihc
elite of Division III this yem as well,
but this time, the Bears go to Rock
Island, Illinois (the final four site)
not as upstarts, but as an experienced team ready to capture the only title which has eluded them — the
NCAA Division 111 championship.
The trip bacamc a reality after
Potsdam defeated Clark, 87-81, In
the semifinal round last Saturday,
Before an overflow crowd, one that
was "hard to believe, even bigger
thai Ihc one for Albany In the East
Regional," according to Welsh, the
Bears delighted their home fans by
taking a three point halftimc lead
and then racing to an 18-point lead
in the second half. The final score
would nol have been as close — the
Bears held a 14-point lead with two
minutes remaining — but Potsdam
missed the front end of one-andonc free throws nine out of ten
times in the final four minutes. But
despite the poor foul shooting exhibition, Potsdam was impressive
against Clark, a Division III New
England power.
"We played exceptionolly well —
about as well as wc can piny," said
Welsh. "We probably played tw(cc
as well as wc did in our last game
with Albany."
That was a 68-63 Potsdam victory over tlic Danes in the East
Regional Championship game, a
contest which was sealed when
guard Ed Jachim hit two free
throws with nine seconds left in
overtime and Potsdam clinging to a
64-63 lead, Jachim, a consummate
floor leader and point guard,
sprained an ankle late in the Clark
ballgamc, and as of Wednesday he
was not practicing with the team, If
Jachim is unable lo play in this
weekend's final four, Welsh indicated he would use cither Jcri
Mirabito or freshman Marty
Groginski in the vacated guard role.
Both players have played sparingly
this season, and neither will be able
to fully replace Jachim, a two-time
State University of New York
Athletic Conference most valuable
player and a Division III allAmerican.
Led by Jachim, leading scorer
and rcbounder Derrick Rowland,
and forward Maurice Woods, the
Bears have put together their finest
season ever, posting a 29-2 record,
Including three victories in four
tries over Albany. In the first round
of the final four, Potsdam will face
24-5 Ursinus, a squad Welsh knows
little about. "They like to run, they
have a 6-7 center, and they're good
shooters. That's all 1 know about
them," Welsh said.
If Potsdam gets by Ursinus, the
winner of the Augustana-Olterbein
game will be next. This year's final
four is unique in that Augustana is
the host school for the tournament
every year, and by qualifying for
the tourney, Augustana assures
itself of a strong home court advantage. "If there are 4000 fans there,
3999 of them will be rooting for
Augustana," Welsh said. "They
have to be the favorite."
If not the host team, then certainly Potsdam must be considered the
favorite. The Bears were 24-6 last
season, but a surprising loss to
Longwood in the semifinals
e l i m i n a t e d t h e m . B o t h of
Potsdam's setbacks this year were
by one point (to St. Lawrence and
Albany), and they have been ranked
as high as third in the national Division III poll. Jachim and Rowland
are both seniors, and their careers
will end this weekend. They expect
it to end with a victory celebration,
"When you get this close —
down to just four teams — you
naturally want to do it all," Welsh
said.

Potsdam Captures Regional In Overtime, 68-63
by Bob Bcllaflore
POTSDAM — In Potsdam for the
third time in five weeks, the Albany
State basketball team was faced
with their third unpleasant situation
in what had become a season full of
adjusting to predicaments.
There was Joe Jednak's ankle injury that kept the starting forward
oul of the previous weekend's
SUNYAC Tournament. It was
known that he would also have to
sit out the NCAA East Regionals.;
For Albany, that was bad enough.
Then there was forward Pete
Stanish's injury, also to his ankle,
suffered against the Bears in the
conference title game. He joined
Jednak on the bench in Albany's
in a 45-44 opening round win.
Without Jednak and a fully
healthy.Stanish, the Danes (23-5)
were not able to contend with the
Bears' deep inside strength.
Potsdam staged a late second half
comeback and eliminated the Danes
in overtime, 68-63, in front of
another rowdy Maxcy Hall capacity
crowd. The win gave the Bears their third straight East Regional crown,
and their second in a row over
Albany.
Potsdam got to the finals by clobbering City University of New York
champion Staten Island, 80-57. _
Freshman Lcroy Withcrspoon's
13 foot jump shot with six seconds
remaining in regulation capped a
6-1 Potsdam, scoring spree, and
Wnouetl the c o m e t for the flrBt lime
in the second half, 55-55, and sent,
the game into overtime.
Potsdam, took their first lead
since their 28-27 halftime advantage
just 13 seconds into the overtime
period on a lay in by all-American
center Derrick Rowland (team high
22 points), a short jumper by guard
Ed Jachim, and a Scott Franko free
throw, while Albany missed twice
on their end of the court. Dane cocaptain Ray Cesare (16 points, 7-9
shooting) hit a long jump shot, but
Rowland's dunk opened the lead to
five again and brought the chanting
crowd to its feet. Albany's John
Dicckelman (13 points) and Jachim
traded pairs of free throws, and
Cesare hit two more long jumpers
against the 1-3-1 Bear zone defense
to make the score 64-63. But
Jachim got two more from the line,
and when Rowland threw down his
second thunderous unmolested
dunk with three seconds left, the
Potsdam celebration started.
But what it came down to was
Withcrspoon's basket at the end of
r e g u l a t i o n . In a s c r a m b l e
underneath the Potsdam basket,
Jachim saved the ball from going
out of bounds, and passed to the
freshman on the right side, who hit
his fourth shot in as many attempts,
tying the game, and giving the Bears
Ihc tic and the momentum.
"It's the way the ball bounces,"
said tired Albany head basketball
coach Dick Sauers. "If it b o u n c e s
Ihc.wronn way, the name Is o v e r , "
The way his'Albany team started
orf the game, you might have
thought it would end much earlier,
with the previous week's shorthanded upset over Potsdam for the
SUNYAC title, the Danes exploded ,
to 11-2 lead, scoring the game's first
seven points, and forcing the Bears,
especially Jachim, into making
mistakes and missing their early
shots.
"They were charged u p , " Sauers
said. "Potsdam rnade some early
mistakes that we took advantage
of."
Jachim had been SUNYAC MVP
for the two previous years, but
Clune, whose task il was to guard
Jachim, treated him with no
respect. For the second week in a
row, Clune tormented Jachim on
defense into, a disastrous 4-17
shooting performance, with only
three assists and five turnovers.
And on the other end, the senior cocaptain enjoyed his finest night of
the season, leading all scorers with
26 points (on 10-14 shooting),'and
hitting his first five attempts from
the floor, while becoming the
eleventh player in Albany basketball history to score 1,000 points in
a career. Clune needed seven going
into his final game and his effort
placed his tenth on the Great Dane

This weekend the Danes may have their first all-American swimmer.
After qualifying in ihc 200 yard Breast Stroke at the SUNYAC conference championships two weekends ago, Joe Shore is on his way lo
Oberlin College, where the NCAA Division III championships arc being held this weekend,
"When I first camehcre as a freshman 1 was son of a run-of-themill swimmer," said Shore. "Undoubtedly, the whole concept of allAmerican sounds exciting, but to achieve this 1 must swim my own
race. The key is to be really relaxed and not lo worry where I place in
terms of standings. Realistically, for me lo swim well, I must think
about my stroke and then onec I get oul of ihc pool I'll start worrying
about all-American.
"What is really important to me is the fact thai the team really got

Dedication, hard work and dclcrmination are major reasons for Joe's
success. During ihc last school recess, he was swimming alone twice a
day and swimming better than ever. He's a guy who takes no shortcuts and never cheats. What I really like about him is that he's very
realistic and knows where he's going," said Albany men's swim coach
Ron While, •
"We've never had a swimmer go lo the nationals two times in a row.
He's going as an experienced swimmer. I've never seen a swimmer

Undoubtedly the highlight for the
Danes was senior Joe Shore's swim
in the preliminary round of the 200
yard Breasl Stroke with the lime of
2:16.1. It not only was a pool
record, but it qualified him for the
NCAA Division III championships
to be held at Oberlin College this
weekend. Shore's swim in the finals
of the 200 yard Breasl Stroke
(2:17.1) placed him second to
Binghamton's Scotl Lukasiewicz

For the rest of the weekend, cocaptain Shore showed his team
leadership placing fourth in Ihc 100
yard Breast Stroke in 1:03.5 in an
extremely tight field. He also took a
second in the consolation round of
the 200 yard Individual Medley with
a time of 2:06.9.
Junior transfer Neil Ullman, who

fourth place finish in the 200 yard
Backstroke with a time of 2:05.6.
Ullman also won the consolation
round in the 200 yard Individual
Medley as he beat his teammale
Shore lo Ihc wall in 2:03.8. "Il was
undoubtedly my mosl competitive
race (200 I.M.). I only swam it once
before and I was seeded tenth going
in — really slow, but 1 was oul really fast and I was really psyched,"
said Ullman.
In the 100 yard Backstroke,
Ullman pulled in with a 0:57,4 in
the preliminaries to break teammate
Sieve lioiuiwitz's school record,
and he took fifth In the finals
behind lioiuiwitz's ' fourth.
Ullmun's record was short-lived as
Bonawilz came buck with his fourth
to steal his record back, beating
Ullman, 0:57.02 lo 0:57.12.
Senior Kevin Ahcrn gave his
fellow teammates every Indication
thai he wanted to exit a winner,
placing in the finals of every event
that he competed in. In the 200 yard
Freestyle, Ahern edged out Kevin
Anderson for firth with a 1:50.02.
In Ihc 100 yard Freestyle, Ahem
was matched up in quality company
as he look fourth, a mere 1.5
seconds slower than Cortland's
winner Steve Hoff in 0:48.2.
"1 was slightly disappointed thai
my limes had no significant drop to
them, but I am pleased with my effort in the 100 for il was definitely
my best time," added Ahcrn. He
also look fifth in the 50 yard
Freestyle in 0:22.6. "Kevin was very
consistent throughout the meet and
he did the job we asked for," said
White.
Dane Backstroke specialist
Bonawilz seized a fourth in Ihc
finals of the 100 yard Backstroke as
he beat out teammale Ullman In
0:57.02. "In that race there were
two school records. Ncal beat my
record in the preliminaries in Ihc
morning and I came back in the
finals to beat his lime and take the
record back thai same afternoon. I
finally gol my turns over. Ncal and
I were the only non-seniors in Ihc
finals," said Bonawltz.
Bonawilz, competing in the 200
yard Backstroke with the likes of
C o r t l a n d ' s all-American Ed
Walralh, swam a fifth in 2:06.7. "1
was not very tapered for this race
and il could have been better," added Bonawltz. "The second day of
competition (with Bonawltz,
Ullman, and Jim Colgan all placing
in ' the top seven in the 100
Backstroke) was Ihc spark that ig-
nited us," said White.
Dane diver Bill Derkaseh hit back
lo back fourths in the one and three
meter competitions for Albany. In
Ihc three meter event Derkaseh accumulated 354.93 poinis and 319.71
In the one meter. "Unfortunately I
had a mediocre regular season on
the boards and lo place fourth was
a real surprise and I'm really happy
the way things ended up for me. Wc
learned a lot together and wc were a
tight team — we knew our limitations and worked from there," said
Derkaseh, who admitted he owed
much to coach Bruce Sickles.
"With Karl (Browne) and Billy's
diving they wrapped up third-place
for us," said White.
Senior Colgan gave Ihc Danes a
large boost as he grabbed a first
place in the consolation round and
seventh place overall in the 100 yard
Backstroke in 0:59.3. "We gol
three of the top seven spols in the
100 but for mc lo win the consolations was tremendous. I was
unbelievably psyched — super
determined," said Colgan.
Besides the swimmers who
dominate mosl meets are some
whose showings at the SUNYAC's
will give the Danes security and
depth in years to come. Sophomore
Kerry Donovan attained point
status as he look twelfth in the 100
yard Butterfly.

The grades are in; a February 28
meeling or the Commission or
Higher Education has reaffirmed
SUNYA's accreditation with the
Middle Stales Association.
The evaluation, which is required
by Middle Stales al least every ten
years, began with the formal ion or
a Middle Slates Steering Cqmmltee
In laic 1979. The committee's purpose was to conduct a thorough
evaluation of the University. The
ICMIIIS of thai evaluation were used
by ihc team from ihc Middle Slates
Association when lliey conducted
Ihclr "three-day appraisal of
SUNYA last December,
While the team cited SUNYA\
frequent
t u r n o v e r of admlnlstrpiors, and the low average
age of its faculty as negative, il
commented that the overall
capabilities of the faculty and administration were impressive. The
leatn n o t e d , t h o u g h ,
that
"considerable cl'loris' to attract
minority students, faculty, and
staff have not succeeded." Questions were also raised aboul ihe low
number or women in faculty and
lop administrative positions.
"We're trying to correct that
with recruiting," Assistant lo the
President Frederick Volkwcin explained. He pointed out thai this
problem is shared by many other
universities.
The report also represented some
criticism on (Tic physical condition
61" Ihc campus, staling lhal it needed repairs lhal have been neglected.
"We have no Kinds for normal
nialnlninenee," Volkwcin explained, because of the newness of ihc
University. "Hui now It's lime lo
start repairs. We've had lo divert
funds, bill we need more."
According lo their report, Ihe
Middle Stales learn was undecided
about distribution credits. "On one
hand," Ihe reporl staled, the freeelective system "is working well in
icrms of achieving a sound dislribu-
lion of courses by fields. This led us
to wonder why there were plans
afoot to supplant il by some form
or distribution requirements." The
reporl staled, however, "on the
other hand, we heard thai the freeeleclivc system is not working
well."
The team showed inlcrcst in the
Liberal Educalion Advancement
Program (LEAP), an experiment in
credit distribution; They cautioned,
however, thai the expansion or such
a program lo all students could prove difficult and costly.
Tlte role of finance surfaced
often in the reporl, with the iioiallon that "Ihe inslilullon Is smuggling lo achieve progress, coherence,
morale and representation in a time
of ausicrily." However, Ihc report
considered SUNYA "reasonably
well-financed" in comparison to
oilier Institutions across the country.

Gov. Pushes for Energy Bills
by Wayne Pcercboom
Yesterday Governor Hugh L.
Carey sent Ihe Legislature a
package of three bills designed lo
encourage energy conservation, according lo Assistant Press Secretary
Ron Tarwatcr.
The bills involve research grams,
energy lax credits and Ihe extension
of a 1977 conservation act.
One bill, Tarwatcr explained,
would allow Ihe Power Authority
of the Slate of New York (PASNY)
lo bond a maximum of $100
million to finance energy conservation projects.
The projects, he said, should include the development of alternative energy systems at the stale
level. One such project in the
Albany area, Tarwatcr said, is
ANSWERS, which involves experiments wilh recycled garbage for
use as an energy source.
Another bill, Tarwatcr said',
would provide a personal slate income tax credit for the purchase
and installation of wind energy
systems as well as active or passive
solar systems. No such stale credit
now exists, he said. The allowed
credit would be 55 percent of the
project cost with a ceiling of $2,7(X).
Current federal law only allows a
40 pcrcenl of cost credit although
Ihc ceiling is $4,000. Also, many
components or passive solar
systems arc ineligible for federal lax
breaks.
A third bill would extend the
1977 Home Insulation ami Energy
Conservation Act lo 1986. The act,
which provides lor energy audits by
utilities and financing for conservation measures, was due to expire in
1982. Tarwatcr explained thai the
Students Rally Today
to Protest Tuition Hike
An expected 1000 SUNY students will march from the SUNYA
Campus Center lo the Stale Capitol today In a slaic-wide effort lo protest Ihc tuition increase slated in Governor Hugh L. Carey's proposed state budget, according to Student Union (SU) Chair Jim
Tierney.
"This is Ihc climax of a scmeslcr-long campaign to preserve our
right lo low-eosi, high quality education — which has always been the
mission of Ihe stale university system," Tierney said.
The protest, sponsored by Ihc Student Association of the Slate
University (SASU) and supported by SU and SA, will feature an 11:00
a.m. rally at Ihe Campus Center before Ihc march and a demonstration at the Capital. Labor leader Sy Cohen, Assembly Higher Educalion Committee Chair Mark Allan Slegel, and Assembly Speaker,
Stanley Fink will speak at the rally al the Capital.
The demonstration is in opposition to the proposed $150 tuition increase and $150 room rent increase I'or SUNY students. According lo
SASU, tuition, room, and board increases would push the cost of attending a SUNY school lo over $4300 I'or the 1981-82 academic year.

bill would also expand the scope of
the bill to include multi-family
dwellings of more than four units
and small commercial buildings.
Tarwatcr added lhal the bill would
eliminate a required $10 fee far
energy audits by utility companies.
Tarwatcr said the bills are designed lo "encourage and stimulate
energy conservation, diminish the
use of oil, and therefore reduce
dependence on OPEC countries lo
provide oil. Incentives such as lax
credits will encourage people lo
conserve." When asked about Ihe
chances of the bills' passage in the
Legislature, Tarwatcr said, "it's
difficult lo give a prognosis."
His hills encourage energy conservation.
