Danes Sweep Colgate as Esposito Gets Record
by Bob Bellaflore
As a rule, Division III teams are
not supposed to beat Division I
teams.
So much for rules.
The Albany State varsity baseball
team won its eighth game in a row
and increased their already impressive record to 10-1 by sweeping
a double-header over Division I
Colgate, taking the first game 4-2
and coming from behind in the
night-cap, 3-2, Saturday afternoon.
Ace righthander Mike Esposito
got a complete game victory in the
opener for his third win of the spring (his eighth overall) and the alltime Albany win mark. Ron
Masseroni also went the distance in
the night-cap and grabbed his
fourth win in five decisions.
The Danes wasted no time in getting on the scoreboard in the first
game and did it with classic baseball
strategy. Leadoff hitter Bob Tortorello walked and stole second.
Center fielder Matt Antalek followed with a sacrifice bunt, moving
Tortorellb to third. After top Dane
hitter Bob Arcario (.432, 16-37) was
walked, number five hitter Frankie
Rivera singled Tortorello home.
In the second, Albany had
another run before Colgate could
get an out. Right fielder Tom Verde
(2-5 for the day) doubled off the
bag at third base. Then designated
hitter Bobby Rhodes singled over
shortstop Ken Slaats' head, and the
Danes led, 2-0.
Left fielder Jim Lynch's first
home run of the season in llic
fourth inning gave Albany all llic
runs they needed to clinch the win
for Esposito.
The Danes got one more in the
sixth when Rhodes (2-3) doubled to
the right field corner. Designated
runner Steve Shucker went to third
on Colgate hurlcr Joe Spofford's
wild pitch, and came in on Lynch's
line single to center.
Colgate's runs were all unearned.
They got one in the fifth when John
Kratley reached on a force play,
went to second on a perfect bunt
single by Jim March, and came in
when Rivera's throw to first to first
trying to complete what would have
been an inning-ending double play
was too high for Bruce Rowlands to
handle.
Their second tally came in the top
of the seventh inning. Kratley led
off with a single to right and went
to third when Antalek could not gel
Ihc handle on March's ensuing
single. A walk to Dan Trunfio loaded the bases, and Kratley scored
when Slaals grounded out to second.
But Ihe Danes got out of the jam
when Arcario snared Joe Murphy's
soft liner at third and stepped on
Ihe bag for the game-ending double
play.
In the night-cap, Albany wenl
out to an early lead again — this
time in the second inning. Red
Raider starter Carter Mann walked
Rowlands on four pitches to lead
off. Rivera followed with a high fly
to right thai got caught in the swirling wind. Trunfio twisted and fell
while chasing it, and the ball dropped behind him. By the lime he got
Ihc ball lo the infield, Rowland
scored, and Rivera was parked on
Ihird with a stand-up triple.
Colgate Med ii up in the Ihird. Second baseman Dave Nuli singled
past ihird lo lead off. March tried
to bunt him over, but Masseroni's
throw pulled Rowlands off the bag
and both men were on. Kratley
struck out on three pitches, but
Staats singled to right and Nuti
scored.
Colgate went up 2-1 in the next
inning. Tortorello went deep in the
hole at shortstop to field Dave
Wolf's hard grounder, but his
throw was in the dirt, skipped by
Rowlands and Wolf look second.
Trunfio followed with an RBI
single up Ihc middle.
"When we got behind 2-1, it
woke us u p , " said Albany baseball
coach Rick Skeel.
The awakening became unpleasant for Colgate, and Albany got
two runs in the fifth. Designated
hitter Jerry Rosen walked, went to
second on an errant pickoff attempt, moved to third on Verde's
single, and was awarded home on
Mann's balk.
Lynch brought Verde across the
plate with the winning run with his
Ihird RBI hit of the day. Masscroni
retired Ihc last six Colgate batters in
order and completed Ihc sweep on a
day not exactly made for baseball.
The freezing cold and riddling
winds made il lough for the hitters
all day. Since the regular field was
in bad condition, Ihe Danes played
on the J.V. field and had lo face the
wind.
"If we had played on our field,"
Skeel said with confidence, "il
wouldn't have been close."
This afternoon, Ihe Danes face a

Stickmen Beat Oswego for First Time Ever, 9-5
The Dane lacrosse team Is now within one win of the .500 mark since Ihey
beal Oswego 9-5 Saturday. (Photo: Sue Mlndlch)
by J e d Schadoff
For the first lime ever Ihc Albany
varsity lacrosse team beat Ihe
Lakers of Oswego Saturday afternoon by the score of 9-5 to up their
season record lo 4-5.
The game was played in less lhan
favorable conditions with rather
overcast skies, a chilly wind and a
low temperature.
Right off Ihc opening face-off,
Oswego's Mark Mancini took the
ball and scored the game's first goal
with only 14 seconds elapsed, but
Ihe Danes rebounded in fine
fashion as Mike Slocum got a pass
from Tom Prall at Ihe five
minute mark to lie Ihc game al one.
At Ihis poinl Ihc Danes began to
dig into the Oswego squad with efficient aggressive play in and around
the Laker cage. Warren Wray
scored Ihe first of his three goals
with just 15 seconds to go in the
first quarter as he fired an
unassisted shoi into the Oswego
net.
On the afternoon Albany did noi
fare lo well on face-offs — taking
only one all game. To open the second 15 minutes quarter, Slocum
was called for delay of game and
was handed a technical violation.
The Danes began a quarter
characterized by aggressive defense
and offense-minded determination.
Ken DaRos got a pass from Wray
jusl 1:40 into the quarter thai jusl
wenl above the ncl on a solid passing effort.
"I like to shoot high bin Ihis time
I shot the ball just a little too sharply," said DaRos. Al Ihis poinl
Albany dominated play with end lo
end lacrosse.
At the 5:15 mark on an Albany
powerplay, DaRos took a pass from
Bob Venier with fundamental play
in ihe attacking zone. At 7:35 and
9:15 of the second quarter Albany
scored it's fourth and fifth goals as
Wray look a pass from Slocum and
DaRos caught a pass from Wray.
"The play was an unsettled situation. We were filling the lanes and
Warren came around and fed the
ball to me so I could gel a shot al
the ncl," said DaRos.
"This was the best game I've ever
played. 1 haven't been playing real
well lately and the team has been inconsistent but today I was looking
and playing good learn ball. 1 was
really hustling and in turn I was inthe right place to score goals," said
Wray.
Venier came on strong with four
minutes remaining in the half to up
the score for the Danes lo 6-2, bill
Oswego's Mark Serron closed ihe
half wilh his unassisted tally al
12:40 to end half wilh Albany up by
four al 6-2. Al Ihis slage of the
game, the contest was luming
slighlly in Oswego's favor based on
I heir timely stick-checking and
hard-hilling.
Again, Oswego won the opening
face-off •. f Ihc third quarter. The
quarter began wilh an early Dane
fasl break with midfielder Luke
Esposito attacking wide on the
Oswego ncl with a fine pass to Jon
Reilly who rammed a sharp shot al
ihe ncl that was blocked by a fine
save al Ihe hands of Oswego goalie
Evan Sovring.
Al the 1:36 mark Oswego's Serron scored his second goal of the
game to pul the Lakers within three
— Ihe closest they would ever come
the rest of ihe game. Early in Ihe
quarter, the game was mining inlo
a torrential battle with sloppy play
and careless mistakes by the visiting
learn. There was also some nice
defensive saves by Albany netminder Ken Tirman on Oswego's
Serron as his point-blank attempt
on net was thwarted.
At 8:20, Esposilo look a pass
from Wrag for Albany's seventh
goal. The assist was Wray's second
on ihe afternoon lo go along wilh
his Ihree goals.
"Today was undoubtedly Warren's finest performance," said
Albany lacrosse coach Mike Moiia.
Thirty-five seconds later John
Nelson pin Albany up 8-3 as the
Danes had Oswego in a man-up
situation and Nelson fired home an
unassisted goal. Wray ended the
third quarter scoring al the 10
minute mark with an assist from
DaRos. "We are capable of playing
good lacrosse. It's jusl a mailer of
pulling il ail together," said
DaRos.

Truth-in-Testing Applied Nationwide
by Bruce J. I.ieber
The College Entrance Examination Board, administrator of the
Scholastic Aptitude Tesl (SAT), has
voluntarily decided to extend the
disclosure provision of New York's
TtmIt-In-Testing law to the rest of
ihe nation, according lo College
Board Executive Director of Public
Affairs Barri Kelly.
The disclosure provision of the
Truth-In-Testing law, enacted on
January I. 1981, requires the College Board to disclose graded exams
and answers to test-lakers upon rc•que?!-. Under the law the College
Hoard nuisl also file each lest and
accompanying data witli the New
York Slate Education Department,
According lo Kelly, Ihe major
factor influencing the decision was
the College Board's "experience
wilh Truth-ln-Tesiing in New
York." Only five perccnl of New
York lesi-takcrs have requested information from Ihe College Board,
he said.
Predicting a similar, national rate,
Kelly feels that complying with national disclosure requests will pose
no difficulties,
Also influencing ihe decision was
Ihe recent case of an SAT answer
being proved wrong by high school
student Michael Galligan of
Rockland County.
"While we had been considering
national disclosure since December,
the incident clearly contributed to
our decision," admitted Kelly.
Assistant Lobbyist for Trulh-lnTesling Leslie Habcr called the College Board's decision "a major victory lor students across the country.
"Until recently, the College
Board hasn't staled publicly thai it
was important to disclose answers
nationally," she said.
However, the New York Public
Interest Group (NYP1RG) cautioned llial "voluntary disclosure Is an
extremely weak substitute for
legislation," and called for federal
Truth-In-Tcsting legislation in its
April 28 news release.
Kelly responded thai the College
Hoard will continue its opposition
to legislation, which il views as unnecessary governmental regulation
ill the testing process.
Compliance wilh the Truth-lnTesling law forced the College
Board to cut the number of tesl
dates in New York from fourteen to
eight this year in order lo "maintain
the quality of the lesls." The test
fee was also raised from $9.25 to
$ II .00 to cover the costs associated
with compliance.
Nationally, twelve tcsls will be
administered during Ihe 1981-82
academic year, five of which will be
disclosed lo students on request.
Tesl fees for these exams will also
be raised lo $10.50 to cover the
costs of disclosure.

"Il is sometimes hard for men to

more common for them lo see
women as lovers, wives, and

"Tile diversity in hiring is not
.sufficiently prized here," she added. "The men are the ones doing all
the hiring."
Bose agreed, saying "There's stilt

Dean Robert Kofr of the School

There are major shortages of

RAYAK, Lebanon (AP) Syrian missiles were poised for
action near this eastern Lebanese city Thursday as the
United States sought Soviet help in heading off a new
Middle East war. In southern Lebanon, Palestinian
guerrillas rocketed northern Israel again, wounding
eight people, sources said, Israeli jets, which shot down
two Syrian helicopter gunshlps near Rayak Tuesday,
refrained from routine flights over Lebanon's Bekaa
Valley after Syria moved the Soviet-built surface-to-air
missiles into position Wednesday, reporters and official
sources said. However, villagers said they saw highflying Israeli jets make reconnaissance passes over the
area but that the planes were out of range of the SAM-6
missiles and none were fired. This correspondent saw
four tracked vehicles, each mounted with three whiteand-black-painted, 20-foot-long SAM-6 missiles, in a
field about three miles south of Rayak, which is some 35
miles east of Beirut and less than 10 miles west of the
Syrian border. The four vehicles, and a fifth equipped
with radar antennae, are the equivalent of half a battery
of SAM-6s — missiles designed for use against aircraft
flying at low or medium altitudes. No additional missiles
were spotted elsewhere in a tour of the Bekaa Valley. In
Tel Aviv, Israeli Prime Minister Menachcm Begin said
Israel had no official confirmation Sytia had moved the
SAM-6 missiles into Lebanon. His statement contradicted an Israeli military communique confirming the
missiles had been deployed. But Begin appeared to be
trying to de-escalate the situation. "I don't think there
will be war between Israel and Syria," he said. "We
don't want war with Syria and I think Syria has reasons
not to want a war with Israel."
Oil Deregulation Studied
HOUSTON (AP) Oilmen have responded to the
decontrol of oil prices with record drilling operations,
but a Conoco executive says he worries there isn't
enough determination, both in government and in the
industry, to make deregulation stick. "On the government side, there continues to be a plethora of laws, rules
and regulations thai regulators can invoke almost at will •
to short-circuit the intent of the decisions made at the
top," says H.K. Bowden. "Particularly at some lower
levels, there is the clear impression very little has changed." On the industry side, he adds, there are a lot of
people who have never known anything but controls
during their careers. "Controls have rewarded mediocrity and created vested interests," Bowden contends.
"Our industry has lost some of its daring." "The return
to free market competition will hit many of those people
hard", says Bowden, who recently was selected as chairman of Conoco's marketing subsidiary in the United
Kingdom. "For some companies and some individuals,
the impact will be painful. The inefficient wilrnot survive," he says. He notes a rash of refinery closings
followed President Reagan's Jan. 28 executive order terminating oil price controls eight months ahead of
schedule. "They include not only small, privately owned
refineries which were offsprings of federal controls, but
also older inefficient refineries of major companies,"
Bowden says.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) A man who said he never

he was supposedly working has testified that he was paid
$5,700. But he said the money actually went to the alleged mistress of New York City Councilman Vincent Riccio. Gunrrera testified that Riccio asked him "if I would
take a slow on the commission and pass my money along
to help her — Ms. Natalie Kachougian financially,
which I agreed to do." Guarrera told the jury that he
took the money between May 1978 andFcbruaryl979 for
his job with the Temporary State Commission on Child
Welfare. He was a friend and business associate of Riccio's. Riccio faced a 12-counl indictment which charges
that he placed three people on the commission payroll
between 1975 and 1979 for jobs they never did. State
prosecutors say the paychecks of the three went to held

Watt Petition Initiated
The Sierra Club has initiated a nationwide petition
drive to have J,ames Watt replaced as Secretary of the
Interior,
Directed to the Congress of the United States, the
petition states: "Secretary Watt is representing private
economic interests rather than following the laws that
define his responsibilities. He is sabotaging conservation
goals supported by a vast majority of the American people. He is seeking to defy decades of legislation designed
to protect our natural resources . . ."
Members of the Sierra Club, a national conservation
organization with more than 200,000 members, intend
to collect and send a million signatures through this petition drive, according to Michael McCloskey, the Club's
Executive Director.
"The Secretary of the Interior... is meant to be the
country's number one conservationist. By contrast,
James Watt has interpreted November's election victory
to mean he has been given a mandate to declare virtual
war on the environment," said McCloskey. "The Sierra
Club believes that the many steps that Watt has already
taken to undo environmental legislation and safeguards
are contrary to the wishes of most Americans."

The staff of Tangent magazine is
angered that Central Council decided to cut their 1981-82 budget and
that they were not contacted to
represent themselves at the hearing
when the final budget was decided.
"I understand they have a tough
time with money and that some
things have to be cut, but they dont'
know their priorities," said
Tangent Co-editor Michele Israel..
Co-editor Laura Dcutsch said she
"thought that there was a rule that
a spokesman of a group has to be
there at a budget hearing."
Israel said that this is not the first
time Tangent has had difficulties
concerning their budget. "We hud
problems last year getting funding
from the budget committee; they
slashed us to nothing," Israel explained. "We appealed to Lisa
Ncwmark and she reinstated our
budget," she added.
Israel believes that part of the
problem is "preconceived notions
on the part of the committee that
we are a 'feminist rag'."
According to Israel, this year
Tangent had a budget of under
$4,000, including $2,800 for printing charges, $90 for photography,
and $550 for supplies. They were
expected to make an income of
$1,000 but only drew $500 through
advertising and record sales with
their four-Issue, 5,000-copy
magazine.
Next year, Israel said, "there will
be a ten percent paper cost increase
by the printer, bringing the printing
costs to $3,080." To keep their
costs down, she explained, the
magazine eliminated the photo line,
cut supplies to $200, and put their
intended income at $600.
"We expected them to be impressed, a group coming in cutting
their own budget, Israel said. Instead, Central Council advised
Tangent editors to sell the
magazine, "but we don't have
enough manpower, and besides
students are already paying for it
through SA funds," she said.
Central Council also suggested
that "we reduce our distribution to
4,000." Israel added, explaining
that the cut in printing costs were
only $77.
Central Council Chair Peter
Wcinstock
explained
Ihal
"although priming costs are only
$77, it was not a mailer of money, il
was a question of liavng copies of
Tangent left around . . . Ihcy
should only print the correct
number of copies that will be
read."
Israel complained that "we've
been consistent all year, we were expected to print four issues and we
did, and there's our thanks." She
also complained that "the budget
was cut and they never contacted
either editor. They should have
waited until they got hold of us."
Wcinstock admitted that "they
should have been contacted. It is
the job of the budget committee
chair to contact them." He added
that Budget Committee Chair John
Suydam "could only do what's
humanly possible, and it might have
been impossible to gel in touch with
them."
Israel said that she believes "the
budget committee doesn't even read
the magazine. It is a literary
magazine Tor a small interest."
She also questioned the decision
to fund a new campus publication
next year, Nadir. "We want to see
other publications on campus.
Publications just come and go, but
why cut an established magazine for
another that will probably be Ihe
same?"
Wcinstock said that Tangent
editors should have been contacted
before Ihe budget hearing, but that
the budgeting decision was correct.
Suydam was unavailable for
comment.

Cosgrove informed him cstradition proceedings had
been initiated against Christopher. However, Mahoney
could not say who was named in the indictment. Meanwhile, detectives from Rochester and New York City,
where similar attacks occurred, arrived here to confer
with authorities. "There are basic similarities in the
cases," Cosgrove said, adding the person named in the
indictment could be a possible suspect in the other slayings here. The killings began Sept. 22 and 23, when three
black males were shot to death in Erie County by a white
man using a .22-ealiber weapon. The next day, a black
man was shot with the same weapon in nearby Niagara
County.
More than 100 humanists from throughout the United
States, Canada, Western Europe, and Australia will be
on the SUNYA campus May 13 and 16, for the sixth annual conference of the International Association for
Philosophy and Literature.
The focus of the conference will be representation,
which is the relationship between an art form and what
that art form represents. The debate centers on whether
art immitates or shapes the reality of the outside world.
More than 40 presentations will be part of the program, including major addresses by Yale University
literary critic Geoffrey Hartman, and philosophers Paul
Rincoeur of the University of Paris and William Gass of
Washington University.
The conference is being sponsored in conjunction
with the College of Humanities and Fine Arts and the
Institute Tor Humanistic Studies at SUNYA. The director of the conference is Albany philosophy professor
Thomas Martland, Who currently is chairman of the executive committee of the International Association of
Philosophy and Literature.
Elections Preoccupy Irish
DUBLIN, Ireland (AP) The Irish Republic fears that
the violence expected in Northern Ireland if IRA hunger
striker Boddy Sands dies will spill over the border. But
politicians throughout the country are more occupied
with the coming general election. Spokesmen for all
political parties except Sinn Fein, the political arm of the
Irish Republican Army, advocate a compromise between Sands and the British government. But they have
made few official statements on the growing crisis or
suggestions of a way out of the impasse. Prime Minister
Charles Haughcy's refusal to intervene on behalf of
Sands is an indication of his governments's attitude
toward the IRA man's demand for special treatment as a
political prisoner. That's a status the Irish government
doesn't give its IRA prisoners either. The government
obviously does not want to get Involved in an issue that
many politicians believe could Inject confusion into the
campaign for the May election and even force its
postponement. The election, in which Hanghcy is
fighting for his political life, is being fought chiefly on
economic issues — and most politicians want it to stay
that way. The public remains generally unemotional.
ALBANY.N.Y. (AP) Oov. Hugh Carey and his new
wife, Evangeline Gouletas-Carey, have spelled out a
series of guidelines they promise to follow to avoid conflicts of interest. The guidelines, announced Wednesday, would not allow American Invsco, the private corporation owned by Mrs. Gouletas-Carey and her
brothers, to "directly pay" the personal expenses of the
governor or his family. Carey would not be allowed to
"directly or indirectly seek to benefit or secure benefits
for the Gouletas private business interests, or accept
benefits from such business interests." The Executive
Mansion here could not be used for private business
meetings, and the guidelines say "private business calls
should not be directed to the Executive Mansion." A
, statement from the governor's office also suggested that
American Invsco will not engage in conversions of additional apartment buildings to condominiums and
cooperatives in New York City. Mrs. Gouletas-Carey is
a major stockholder of American Invsco, the nation's
largest converter of apartment buildings to condominiums and cooperatives. The Chicago-based company has already converted two buildings in New York
City and recently bought a third.
Magazine's Budget is Questioned
WASHINGTON (AP) President Reagan's economic
program headed for its first showdown vote in the full
House yesterday with outnumbered Republicans optimistic they can deliver a victory for Reagan and
Democratic leaders working hard to bring defectors
back into the fold.Less than 40 hours after the president
personally appealed to a joint session of Congress to act
quickly on his package of spending and tax cuts, the
House began deliberations that will lead to a vote on
whether to endorse a budget resolution backed by the
president or a still-developing alternate plan being pushed by the Democratic leadership. House Speaker
Thomas P. O'Neill Jr. said today that prospects for a
Democratic alternative "look a lot better" because
many Democrats are beginning to realize how deeply the
budget-trimming plan favored by the administration will
cut social programs. O'Neill, D-Mass., told reporters
that he was "pounding it to" Democrats to make them
understand the impact of voting with Republicans on
the budget cuts. But Republican leader Robert Michel of
Illinois said flatly that the president would win, adding
that he could count "just over 30" Democratic votes
behind the Reagan-backed plan.

House to Vote on Budget
by Ken Gordon
A study outlining legislation that
would raise New York Stale's legal
drinking age to 19, close bars one
hour earlier and lower the blood
alcohol content (BAC) limit for
Driving While Intoxicated from .1
percent to .08 percent was released
Wednesday by Senate Mental
Hygiene and Addiction Control
Committee Chair Frank Padavan.
The purpose of these initiatives,
Padavan said, is "to combat
alcoholism, drunk driving and
teenage alcohol abuse." He added
that he feels "the chances of these
bills passing are pretly good."
One bill included in the study
packet has already been signed into
law. This bill requires commercial
insurers issuing group policies for
health coverage to provide inpatient care for the diagnosis and
treatment of alcoholism and
alcohol abuse.
However, legislation to raise Ihe
slate's legal drinking age to 21 was
defeated last month in the
Assembly. New York's legal drinking age has been sel at IB since 1939
drivers from driving between 4 a.m.
and 8 a.m., as well as to protect innocent commuters during the early
morning rush hour.
Many district attorneys ucross ihe
when prohibition was lifted.
•slum require u higher HAC ihun thu
"Drivers 20 years old and
younger make up less than eight
percent of Ihe licensed driving
population (in New York Stale), yet
they are involved in one-quarter of
all drunk driving collisions,"
Padavan said. "While automobile
accidents rank sixth in the list of
causes of death among Americans
as a whole, it is the leading cause of
death in the 15-10-19-ycar-old age
group," he added.
According to Padavan, the Division of Alcoholism Abuse has
found that 27 percent of all drunk
driving fatalities occur between I
and 5 a.m. Padavan has sponsored
legislation which would require bars
to close at 3 a.m., instead of 4 a.m.
as currently mandated by New York
State law.
The purpose of ibis legislation,
said Padavan, is to prevent drunk
present .1 percent to prosecute for
Driving While Intoxicated, said
Padavan.
"By lowering the acceptable limit
two-hundreths of a percentage
point, I seek to impress upon the
district attorneys ihe legislative intent that Driving While Intoxicated
(DWI) violations he prosecuted
more rigorously," he said.
Padavan added Ihal "public
drinking is not a right but a
privilege."
SA Search Committee
Chairperson Resigns
by Mindy Safdia
legal Services Search Committee Chair Brad Rolhbaurn resigned
last Friday.
The Legal Services Committee was organized to hire a new attorney
to replace full time SA attorney, Jack Lester, who has resigned.
Rothbaum said he resigned because of one committee member's
"lack of professionalism" and personal scheduling problems.
Rothbaum said that SA part-lime attorney Lou Oliver could not attend an interview for a new attorney due to personal and professional
responsibilities, although he had expressed a "strong desire" to attend
the interview. The meeting had to be postponed to a later date,
Rothbaum said.
Rothbaum said he resigned "not because he is giving up, but
because of lime limitations due to other commitments."
SA President Sue Gold said that Rothbaum's resignation is unfortunate. "He did a good job," she said, adding that she would "like to
see him continue, but there were lime pioblcms."
Another committee member, Eric Turkowitz, will replace
Rothbaum as committee chair.
"Celebration" Readies for Concert
by Sylvia Saunders
Although advance tickets for
tomorrow's Celebration '81 began
selling at a slow pace, sales arc
"picking up," according to University Concert Board (UCB) Chair
Dave Monlanaro.
"We're expecting a big line Friday," Monlanaro said. "And we'll
sell tickets as late as we have to. As
long as the line goes, we'll be
there."
He said there will be additional
tables lo sell tickets set up in the
Campus Center lobby. He's hoping
to sell at least 10,000 advance
tickets; as of Thursday, they were
halfway there. He said people
didn't rush to buy tickets because
Ihcy warned to see what the weather
was like and decide whether they
wanted to go.
"Everyone who's planning to go
should buy them Friday," Monlanaro added. "There will only be a
limited number available at Ihe
door. Besides, UCB and Ihe administration cannot conceive of
students spending an extra $6'at the
door."
He said tickets at the door will be
$10. "There will be no exceptions
and the policy will not change."
Tickets at the door will go on sale
10a.m. tomorrow.
Those with advance tickets can
enter through the express lines and
the fencing will be guarded by
uniformed security and University
Police.
"Even if there arc long lines,
we're going to start the concert,"
Monlanaro said. David Crosby is
scheduled for approximately 12:00;
Willie Nile is planned for 1:30p.m.
and Ihe Dregs will appear at 3 p.m.

"The future is prclty scary in the
U.S. at this point because there
doesn't seem to be any real outrage
in the country," voiced anti-war activist Bruce Bayer Wednesday evening in Lecture Center 23 during a
panel d i s c u s s i o n on n o n registration for the draft. Bayer,
who has served time for draft evasion, said he believes registration
for the draft may again become
mandatory this fall.
Also speaking at the peace week's
panel was Dennis Schlcnkcr, a
lawyer active in the peace movement. He said he graduated from
law school in 1960, "at the time
when a generation was graduating
people who were not all aimed in
the convenient directions of working for banks, businesses, and
such."
During eight years of draft work
for clients, Schlenker represented
more than 1,000 people in different
cases as well as participating in
draft counseling.
Schlcnkcr observed that when he
was in school, students "were far
more actively involved in issues."
He said that perhaps today's apathy
seen on campuses is because there is
no Vietnam. "1 think people do get
together in adversity," he added.
Schlcnkcr spoke at length about
the history of the draft in America,
a field lie knows well from his in-
volvement with draft cases from
1968 through 1976. "The draft is
really an extension of imperialism,"
he said. "And the first Selective
Service Act in 1917 turned out to
have some interesting features. A
person, for example, could pay to
get out of the draft. You could get
another body to fill your shoes."
After 1917, Schlenker said, the
government seriously studied the
draft system for 20 years. Then they
came up with the model for the
Selective Service Act in 1940.
This draft act was needed, lie
said, because the draft system was
being attacked on the streets and in
the courts.

Bayer was a draft resistor at age
20. He came back to the U.S. in two
years and had the distinction of being the first draft resistor lo return
home. He explained his philosophy
and
.anti-war
emotions.
"Alienation is when you're against
the war. But it's also in the case of
resisting the drafi that you are so
against the war thai you want the
other side lo win."
Bayer said there has never been a
draft in our nalion unless a war was
going on. The U.S. Draft ended officially in 1974-75 "because only
one out of seven or eight people
were es'cn going ill," Bayer said,
"ll was a farce,
Forty-nine thousand Americans
died in Viet Nam," Bayer noted.
"And the suicides committed
because of 'Nam are mind-boggling
as are the afler-effccts of neuroses,
alcoholism, drug abuses...serious
problems among our cx-G.Is."

Bose said that a women's family
life should not be considered when
she applies for a job.
"They have no right lo worry
about a woman's I'amily when

Barnard added iliat when a

DcSolc feels Ihe future outlook
for increasing the number of
women on campus is hopeful. "We

Dog Eat Dog
As the July sun settled on the great
metropolis, Snuffy Kaynlne loped wearily to
Ihe red Bobcat waiting In the sea of autos.
"It's a man's life . . . a man's life." he muttered. Snuffy drove the twenty-two miles Into suburbia, and habitually counted the
thirty-four fire hydrants along the way. His
mind chewed at the recounted trials o( the
day, as he gave a nervous shudder.
"Dammit! Why don't those two-in-one
collars for humans sell? . . . Georgle has
one,
no sign of exzema or psoriasis in two
months . . . why don't they sell? . . . Yechl
New shipment of babies wallowing In their
own shit. Knew I shouldn't have tried to sell
pure bred politicians . . . 'Snuffy's Human
Emporium.' Hmm, nice name — wish I
could turn It into a gold mine . . . ah,
rawhide on Ihe table every night, nice tough
fatty steak now and then . . . Oh well, home
sweet home. At least I'm treated like a Great
Dane here."
He greeted his wife Fe-Fe with a warm lick
on the snout. Withered, Snuffy loosened
his choke collar and collapsed with a whine
Into his wicker chair.
"Tough day, Dear? Here. Have a Kaluah
and milk bone. I Just made It when I heard
you pull I n . " Apron wrapped, Fe-Fe loved
nothing more than to cater to her husband's
every whim. "Georgle, get Daddy his slippers." With a grunt of obedience, the family
pet bounced on hands and knees into the
modest bedroom, tush wagging merrily.
"What's for dinner tonight, my little cheese
and egg pie?" questioned Snuffy affectionately.
"We'll have to have leftover bone meal
again, Snuffy." Fe-Fe lowered her head.
" Y o u know, Dear, Ihe human really Is quite
an expense. Maybe we should consider. . .
uh . . . selling him. Just to make ends
meet." As though Georgle, a dumb human,
could almost understand, he came lumbering from Ihe bedroom. He let his master's
slippers fall to the ground, and gave Snuffy's
1
paw a loving kiss.
,
"SELL?! Sell, you say? Dog's best friend?
The best human on the block? And you say
sell? Georgia Is from champion game-showhost lineage, and I wouldn't — "
"Okay, okay. I only thought that maybe.
Snuffy ruthlessly continued his tirade,"Well, bitches weren't meant to think. From
now on you leave the thinking to me. 1
bought this human for a reason, and 1 Intend
to go through with my plans."
"Let's face it, Snuffy. Georgle Is almost
eighteen years old, and, well, It seems like
he's not even Interested in girls" admitted
Fe-Fe shyly.
"Fe-Fe, I'm putting an ad In the paper first
thing tomorrow. Georgle Is officially 'at stud.'
He'll mate only with the finest game-showhost female around. A n d , Just you watch.
Georgie's babies will sell for a fortune."
Snuffy looked down to see Georgle attempting to speak. A bad habit he must have
acquired In the kennel.
"Gerrrlsss," Georgle Ihroatlly spewed.
Snuffy whomped him firmly on Ihe nose,.to
correct the poor behavior. The master looked at his watch and realized it was long past
Georgie's dinner hour, and fed him a-bowlful
of the usual dried celery stalks.
"Damn, this stuff Is gettlng'expenslve," as
Snuffy examined the price on the twenty-five
pound economy bag. "You'll show the
world, Georgle , ... you'll show 'em. Your
Infants will put meat on my table every night.
Who knows? Then maybe Fe-Fe and I.can
have the puppy we've been dreaming
about." Snuffy daydreamed optimistically.
That night, when Georgle was locked in
the stair well, he secretly tried to Imitate what
he had heard his master's wife say,
"Gcrrruls? Gerrrullszz?" The door flew
open. Snuffy's .silhouette loomed In Ihe
doorway, tail dragging listlessly.
"Shut the hell up, Man." And he pounded

Getting back to the story I was telling you
earlier is hard. I've forgollen now what It Is I
was doing.or caring lo do.
1 do remember stopping at the State Street
Pub (I needed change for smokes and a
phone call). I see someone I know and slop
and chat for a while. We-each have'a couple
of drinks. As usual, he has women problems. For once I'm determined merely to
listen. Let him talk if he wants to. Besides,
the guy at the bar has a nice ass.
I turn and look.at my friend; why Is he telling this. Like most straight men. I've known
some gay men and women. Wondering all
the while whether or not I'm gay myself. This
evening, however, I'm not in the mood for a
man to make a pass al me.
I decide at this point to leave before
anyone's feelings gel hurt. The whole thing
could be real or Just a product of my sexual
fears. Tonight, I'm not overly curious as to
where the truth lies (as for tomorrow who
knows).
Leaving there I take the Wllliel route. 1

"There was a man once named Roderick
Blue," Albert began. " H e was a strapping
chop. Good-looking, thirty-five years old.
Roderick had been in high spirits upon hearing that his brother. Wesley and his wife had
decided to name their new-born son after
him.
There was to be a small noonchristening ceremony al the church, followed by an even smaller reception at his
brother's home. Roderick's presence was. of
course, all but mandated.
"Roderick had told Wesley earlier that he
would be detained for a short while after the
noon Christening and would therefore be
late for the reception. At 2 p.m., Roderick
appeared al Wesley's home. He walked up
to Ihe obsidian door that was flanked by two
Ionic columns and banged Ihe circular door
knocker three times- Roderick was allowed
in by Wesley's wife, Ellsha. He noted Ihe
sound of Ihe door closing belling him.
" 'Good news, Roderick,' Wesley shouted
wilh salutory gestures. 'The baby looks just
like you.' Roderick smiled and sal on their
sofa. Elisha smiled and said:
' " O n l y a matter of time, Rod, before he has
a head of thick, brown hair.' Selfconsciously, Roderick rubbed a hand
through his wavy, auburn hair that was
beginning to Ihln at the forehead Into a
widow's peak. He Just noticed the piano
sonata Issuing from the radio's speaker.
Ellsha brought in from the kitchen a tray of
cups and a mug of tea and put them on the
table before Roderick.
" 'Where did everyone else go?' Inquired
Roderick, looking around.
"'Sol and Deldre had a long way to drive.
They have lo be back in New York by
tonight,' Wesley explained. 'Mom and Dad
couldn'l make it. Dad's back...' Roderick
looked down at the carpel and said nothing.
The grandfather clock in the hall near ihe
stairway lolled three limes. Was il 3:00
already? Roderick picked up a filled lea cup
before him and raised it to his lips, the rim of
the n i p obscuring his vision somewhat.
"The old man wilh Ihe wispy while hair put
Ihe cup down on the table and perused his
surroundings. The sofa's color had faded.
He was alone. There was no piano sonata lo
be heard, only a shrill hiss from the outside.
The grandfather clock kept time In the hall."
Albert wore a complacent smile.
"Well?"
"Well. Ihe lime had passed, shall we say,
normally, only Roderick's perception of it
had changed. He was now a 70 year-old
man. As he sat down on Ihe sofa, wars were
begun and concluded In distant lands,
revolutions fought and lost. As he brushed
back his hair, a generation of people were
born, suffered, loved — some died. As the
tea was being served, Ihe consciousness of
an entire planet moved forward a quantum
crawl. As the grandfather clock tolled thrice,
the breath of millions was consumed by the
vastness of space. Thai day, at 3:15, a
35-year-old man with thick, auburn hair
named Roderick Blue opened the obsidian
door of his home and walked past the Ioniccolumned entrance into the street. They say
he was the spitting Image of his uncle."
Albert fashioned his cigarette smoke into'
rings and smiled. He was reflective.
" 'Distance,' 4o quote Goethe, 'does not,
make you falter, (but) to die and so to grow,
you are only a troubled guest on the dark
earth.' "
"Well, old sport," said Albert, "we are at
point B so to speak. I've finished my story.
Are we the same?"

stain off the furniture. I knew by the
time the clock hit 7:20 I'd be totally
covered with the stuff.
College had gotten to be too much
for me so I decided to take some time
off and think about things. 1 needed a
job but lacked marketable skills and connections In the right places. As a result, I
found myself wiping furniture.
Each of the four stain wipers knew
every crack and groove of every piece
of furniture that was put in front of us.
After a quick once over, we'd each grab
an air hose and proceed to blow the
stain oul of the cracks in the furniture.
Ricky, who would be working next to
me, might get a little too close and wind
up with brown blotches of stain all over
his face. He would pay little attention
and go on talking. He chattered constantly over the eight hour shift and
worked nearly as hard. He seemed
frustrated. Maybe the fact that he was
nineteen years old and had a wife and
two children had something to do with
First the furniture was stained and then
rubbed and lacquered twice. Following
this, the appropriate hardware was adde d . Finally, the stuff was Inspected and
sent to shipping.
T h e language consisted of what the
bosses termed ''shop talk." In translation, shop talk means that If every other
word out of your mouth isn't "fuck,"
you must have some kind of problem.
The work itself was tedious but required a hard non-stop physical labor.
Besides lunch, we were given three ten
minute breaks throughout the shift. If
it.
If the other two stainers finish their
part before us, we could expect to hear
Waters scream "Come OOON YOU
GUYS, LET'S GO!!" I could never
figure out if he was serious or if he just
took advantage of any opportunity to
yell. Anyway, in another hour or so,
he'd begin his Elvis Presiey imitations.
On impulse, h e would j u m p on top of a
piece of furniture and start screaming
the lines to "Heartbreak Hotel" In a
monotone voice. Few people paid any
attention — we'd all seen It so many
times before.
All this would take place on a typical
morning at Green Mountain. Furniture.
Chuck O'Leary. a young, enterprising
businessman, was president and principal stockholder. Located on a winding
road in North Bennington, Vermont,
the factory employed approximately
2 0 0 people. Green Mountain built furniture under contract for various companies, mainly Ethan Allen.
The furniture was made practically
from scratch. The factory consisted of
two buildings. In o n e , through a series
of processes that 1 really never
understood, rough lumber was made
into furniture parts.
1 worked In the building across the
road. It resembled a huge warehouse. A
partition inside divided the building into
two sections. In the first section, the
parts were assembled. The newly
assembled furniture was then sent into
the finishing room where 1 was assigned. Here the furniture was put on heavy
wooden pallets which were put on a
track of metal rollers. The track zigzaged throughout the entire section like
a toy train set. It ran through large
wooden dryings ovens and there were
several turnstyles where the pallets
could be pushed on side tracks if repairs
were needed.-
the weather was alright, many of us
would sit on the makeshift benches In
front of the building and stare at the
mountains that were less than a mile
away. Directly beyond those mountains
was Bennington College, which currently boasts the highest tuition in the country.
Usually, I would just begin to unwind
from the work pace and the constant
drone of the machinery, when that
damn buzzer would ring. It was time to
Imrnerse myself in stain once again.
In the parking lot across the street, car
doors would slam at the sound of the
buzzer. On a typical day, York would
stroll across the street after chugging his
usual breaktime quart of beer. He
would drink a quart or two at 6:30 in
the morning, a quart at every break and
at least two at lunch. He tried to quit
drinking a couple of limes, but by nine
in the morning his hands would be
shaking so bad that he'd beg somebody
to go to the store and buy him beer.
Nevertheless, anyone who called him
an alcoholic usually heard In reply;
"Have you ever seen me so drunk that 1,
couldn't walk?"
Often with him would be Greg, who
seems like a normal guy except for the
fact that he could not read or write. At
the end of each day, someone had to fill
out his time slip for him. H e would then
sign it with an X.

feel the same dread that I felt at seven In
the morning as the spray gun would hiss
gradually, covering a white piece of furJust before break I would have had a
chpnpe to clean off much of the stain
which had covered every crevice of my
hands and forearms. Many telltale signs
would still remain, however. Stain
would be up my nose so I would be constantly inhaling it. My clothes would be
covered with it, especially the knees of
my pants which would be rock hard

from kneeling in the slain and sawdust
that was all over the floor. Worst of all
would be my shoes which would have
an inch-thick coating of the stainsawdust combination. The life expectancy of shoes on Ihe stain line would be
rather short because the stain eats
through the bindings. 1 always
wondered what the stain did to the
sprayer's lungs. He inhaled Ihe stuff all
day without a mask on.
There was little point in fully cleaning
off the stain until the end of the week.
From the end of one work day there
really wasn't much time until we'd be
wallowing In it Ihe next morning.
Anyway, by the time 1 got home from
work, I was too tired to do anything.
Not that there was that much to do
aside from the Thursday night bowling
league. I would usually collapse on the
couch and fall victim to the television
set.
There was little to think about concerning work. The work Itself was not conducive to thinking since working at such
a fast pace doesn't allow a person much
time to reflect on things. Besides, we
were paid by how many pieces of furniture we put out (the piece work
system) and any slowdown would bring
screams from the other stainers.
The piece work system was devised
by Industrial scientists early In the century to give Incentive to workers by
rewarding them directly for the amount
of work d o n e . It didn't work quite that
way at Green Mountain. Having different types of furniture, we'd be paid
different amounts for each piece. Every
once in a while, a strange looking m a n
in a black trenchcoat,. a Hitler-style
mustache a n d thick black glasses
(known to the workers as "Tlck-Tock")
would do a time study. He'd determine
how much we'd be paid for the different
types of furniture. In the end, our pay
would be pretty much the same within a
certain range. How hard we worked
had little direct effect on our pay. 1
always felt that the essence of the wellmeant piece-work system was lost
somewhere among Tick-Tock's computations. While many still worked hard
in hope of better pay, little satisfaction
was derived from work. Worker's faith
in the company was.low.
Besides Ihe work and screams from
co-stainers, the other way to occupy
one's time was to watch the workers
who were free to walk around. I
remember seeing the young bearded
electrician who always had a smile on
his face. Then, on Monday morning I
was told that he had blown his own
brains out the previous Saturday night.
Then there was Floyd. He was a short
man with red hair who was ready t >
retire In a couple of months (with a full
pension of 50 dollars a month, 1 might
add). Floyd's arms were discolored
from the chemicals he had worked with
for all those years. He didn't talk very
much, but had a series of hand signals
worked out which
everybody
understood. The word was that he had
seen an elevator fall and kill a man In
the next room about fifteen years
earlier. He hadn't been the same since,
it was said.
Leroy's pension was one of the
benefits of the union. Green Mountain
was a closed shop. After working there
four weeks, a person had to join Local
of the AFL-CIO or be fired.
With t h e u n i o n , t h e foreman
couldn't fire anybody without sufficient
cause as mandated by the contract.
Very few were dismissed. As a matter of
fact, in the two years I spent in the
finishing room, only two people were
fired.
T h e union also had the responsibility
of negotiating a contract with the company. I had been working there about a
year when the contract came up. The
whole thing came down to a vote — yes
meant accepting the contract and no
meant a strike. A mood of excitement
prevailed as 200 workers packed into
the North Bennington Fire House for
the vote. I was among the 50 maniacs in
the back who were clutching a bottle of
Miller in one hand and screaming
"STRIKE" while waving Ihe fist of the
other.
In the end, the contract was accepted. There were too many people
who were dependent on the job and
couldn't afford a strike.
I can still remember the foreman telling me "It's a steady job" on the day 1
was hired. I can also remember the day
o n e of the younger workers bought a
new car. Two supervisors were looking
at It as It stood gleaming In the parking
lot. On their faces were big grins.
Everybody knows that if one buys a new
car, one has to make payments. In
order to make payments, one needs a
steady job. Another one was hooked. •

The message of those summer romps only

won or lost. If you were '"llminlnated" or

play for play's sake; not a recreation of society's competitiveness, but a release from it.
"Play for Play's Sake" is Ihe theme of a
very special gym course. It's called "Sports
and Games." and Is the Innovalive concept
of coach Amy Kidder, who combines an Infectious good spirit and a sludy of so-called
"New Games" to Instill In a class of thirty
students self-confidence, creativity, and a
new sense of fun.
The class meets twice-weekly in hourly
sessions — sometimes In the gym.

The competition can be fierce — but the
New Games organizers noliced something
more Interesting. As the ball approached
either goal, members of the winning team
would prevent the ball from crossing Ihe

The festival was a huge success, attracting
over four thousand people and wide publicity — leading to Tournaments 2, 3, and 4.
and the establishing of the New Gaines
Foundation, which establishes and promotes
world-wide participation under the New
Games molto: "Play Hard, Ploy Fair.
Nobody Hurt."
Kidder applied the "non-concepts" of
New Games while she taught high school in
Weslfleld. There she supervised a "Project
Advance" program, a secondary school
outgrowth of Ihe successful "Outward
Bound." which alms at Improving Ihe selfimages ol students through improved
awareness of what they can do wllh their
bodies and minds. "Project Advance" scales

mind over matter — yet retains its
philosophy.
touching floor.
The logroll Is an "Incentive task," which
taxes the students' ability to discover Innovative solutions to new problems, and the
cooperation and trust of thirty strangers.
After deliberation, the students can decide
the best way to complete the task Is by having nine students silting Intertwined on the
board, and slowly rolling the dowels beneath
the board. As a dowel pops out from behind,
the students must pause to allow it lo be
passed up lo the front.
The going is slow (remember that two
students had to travel back across the sea
eacli lime to pick up the others, and that
there Is nothing stable about a plank supporting nine nervous people), but that only
serves to Increase the source of the accomplishment.
The students are carrying many of the
lessons ol "Sports and Games" outside of
the gymaasiuni. Flushed and tired after the
class, yet happy and enthusiastic, they speak
ol Ihe benefits ol their "sleeper" class.
"It's Ihe one class I never cul," is Ihe opinion of one of the players, wllh which many
of Ihe class members agree. They feel the
spirit of the class gives them a better perspective tin tilings when Ihey return to the dorms.
They talk of a loss of Inhibitions, boosted
confidence, and an Increased awareness oi

"This should be a prerequisite for any ma" says Jay Lustgarten, who calls Ihe class

The philosophy, according lo Kidder, includes "cooperation, trust, and ultimately, a
feeling of closeness Willi others and oneself."
Utilizing many-New Games. Project Advance de-emphaslzd winning, and had
students selling their own goals.
"Sports and Games" Is Ihe P.A. program
in a sllghily adapted form. Participation is Ihe
key and sludenls are urged lo Iry things
they've never done before — like Ihe logroll
over the sea of "poisonous jelly."
The props are simple: a nine-foot board,
three pressed-wood dowels, and a slick. The
object is lo transport the entire class from one
side of the "sea" lo the other, with no one
his favorile. "The whole school is based on
competition. This course makes you understand Ihe real 'Importance' of competing."
The students reserve the mosl praise,
however, for Coach Kidder. A few took the
class specifically because of Ihe enthusiasm
she's shown coaching lennls, soccer, and
oilier classes. All have become converts to
her style.
But Kidder jusl thinks lhal Is part of the
course as well. "The wonderful tilings about
these games," she said, "Is their ability lo bring strangers together, and friends closer
logether." From Ihe looks on the faces of the
players, they've succeeded.

straight-forward rockers, and tender ballads,
have attracted much attention.' Now's your
chance to catch him.
A native New Yorker from Cheektowaga,
a suburb of Buffalo, Nile began his career In
Greenwich Village, where he played his
songs on acoustic guitar In small cafes and
clubs In the village, such as Kenny's
Castaways, which helped start the careers of
Steve Forbert and Carolyn Maas. Nile signed'
with Arista Records In late 1979, and released his first album early last year. The record
was applauded by the critics, and Nlle
became one of the year's most promising
new artists.
Nile's talents are well presented on this first
release. Among the best songs from his selftitled debut are: "Vagabond M o o n , " a sweet,
lyrical, love song with engaging triple guitar
rhythms, "It's All Over," a beautiful and
tender melody, enhanced by Nile's soothing
vocals, and "She's So C o l d , " a witty satire
Nile's songs are delivered with precision
about a totally unreceptlve woman:
and power by his professional four-piece
back-up band consisting of guitarists Clay
Barnes and Peter Hoffman, ex-Television
bassist Fred Smith and drummer Jay Dee
Daugherty, formerly of T h e ' P a t t l Smith
Group.
Go/den Down Is Nile's latest release,
which he co-produced with Thorn Panunzio.
They tried to present a bigger, fuller sound,
but ended up overproducing the record. The
slicker, polished sound of Go/den Down Is at
times pretentious. "Poor Boy" and "I Can't
Get Y o u Olf Of My Mind" suffer from excessive production and vocal dubbing.
The opening of "Poor Boy" sounds like an
Imitation of Bruce Springsteen's patented
sound, and Is an unfortupate departure from
the raw, lean sound of the first album. "I
Can't Get You Off Of My Mind" Is repetitious
to the point of boredom.
Though Nile misses with these two, he connects on several others. The title cut, a portrait of a beautiful call girl, Is a great rocker,
exhibiting Nile's Jar reaching vocals, and exceptional backup playing. Nlle shows a flair
for storytelling:
The hour Is late, the smoke is heavy
The drunken sailor Is coming to
The whiskey's straight, the spirits ready
The hoys In the back room are calling you.
"Les Champs Elysses" Is another
fine
rocking tune, with Nlle and the boys at their
best. Paul Schaeffer Is featured on
keyboards, and contributes a pounding
honky tonk solo that adds to the rhythmic
power of the song.
With "1 Like the Way," a beautifully sung
ballad with simple acoustic accompaniment,
Nile demonstrates an ability to write effective
ballads as well as rockers.
Golden Douin Is a good album that rocks
harder than its predecessor, but still suffers,
at times, from overproduction. However,
there Is plenty of good rock V roll on the
album. Nlle seems to have a promising
career ahead of him.
' The best way to experience Willie Nile's
music Is In concert. Nlle Is a versatile musician, who can play guitar and piano. A n d
with a three guitar line-up, plus the steady
pulsing rhythm section ' ol Smith and
Daugherty, they put on an energetic and
entertaining show. Nlle has a likeable
onstage personality, and a tremendous
amount of energy, which he releases by running around and jumping Into the air. His
electricity Is sure to excite the crowd and
make Celebration '81 a big success,
Saturday Is a big day for SUNYA — a
chance to sit In the sun (we hope) and enjoy
an afternoon of good rock.'n' roll. Be sure to
get there early though • you won t want to

Ulslafarians coming about Is Jah (the
supreme being In Rasia) working In
mysterious ways."
The Ulslafarians are a diverse band In both
their musical background and their ethnic
backgrounds. Reggae has brought this band
of a Mexican, a Puerlo Rlcan, two whites
and two blacks together, with musical
backgrounds ranging from rock, Jazz, Latin,
folk, and swing. Wayne said, " I was a folk
singer for years. Then 1 got Into old fashion
swing music and began playing a style of
music I called funky-country-space-cadetblues." He has only been singing reggae
music for a year and a half.
Talking about the growth of reggae,
Wayne said, "Reggae Is gelling bigger all the
time because the message Is so positive."
When the band opened up at J.B.'s with
Bob Marley's "Lively Up Yourself," the
crowd reacted very positively to that
message, and Ihe whole show. The crowd
even continued to dance during each of ihe
three percussion jams. The band played four
of Ihe five songs off of their recently released
EP. These songs come across stronger and
fuller live, to this reviewer, than they do on
the recording. Guitarist Bush said the EP has
been selling "a shltload" so far.
Besides Bush on guilar, Wayne on lead
vocals, songwrltlng, and electric/acoustic

are:

Godspell According To P e t e r Bennett

It works.
Bui If you've seen a good production of
"lodspell befo„re, then you might have some
eservatlons about the PAC's production
hlch Is running through tomorrow night.
For those who don't know the story.
lodspell Is a musical adaptation of Ihe
iospel according to St. Matlhcw. A n d In
leneral, Director Peler Bennett handles II
ell.
The parables, told through a series of skits
i d songs, are handled nicely for the most
rl. Even a person unfamiliar with Ihe
tspel should be able to enjoy them.
All the action takes place center slage.
thlch Bennett transforms Into a circus ring
raplete with ropes, tumbling mats, and
lloons. There are also bleachers around
| | e ring for audience sealing, to simulate a
ial big-lop atmosphere. Bennett has done
ay with the musical's original urban set'9.
Although Bennett's circus idea may be injjDvalive, II is far from effective. Sel In a
[miliar place, the clown-like rharaclers lose
3helr uniqueness and blend Into the
background. In the original urban setting, the
[Slay was brought to the audience In an environment they could understand with ihe
r
formed two shows with equal vim, vitality,
vigor, versatility and vlvaclousness. More Importantly, despite their occasional trips Into
the musical stratosphere, the group as a
whole was found to be readily accessible to
the majority of the audience.
Paj Metheny Is as home grown as his
music, which Is Intensely Individual. His
popularity as a "fusion" musician has virtually exploded over the past two years as his
recordings have made their way onto the
turntables of Jazz afflclonados and rock lovers
alike. Lyle Mays, keyboard player and cocomposer, supplied much tnore than competent accompaniment (not to mention exuberance), but his solo work lacked Ihe tonal
Three schemes o l music were touched ed. "Turnaround," an Ornelle Coleman

lhat Pat is apparently taking are that o l the slraight-ahead manner that cut right through
traditionally based and thai ol ihe synthesiz the performance as il provided a marked
contrast to the other material presented.
Pat's most recent recording. S O / 8 1 , on
E.M.C. records, shows us much of this "In
the tradition" material as well as other clean,
crisp material with two saxophonists. The
synthesized material Included a tune
dedicated to Ornelte entitled "Off-Ramp,"
which featured Pal on a synthesized .guitar
set-up. A whole array of un-ramped tunes
were played In this same sort of mode,
featuring extensive use of synthesizers by
both Lyle and Pal. The finale, one of Pal's
biggest hits, "Across the Heartland," Is whal
one might call typical Metheny fusion.
However. In many cases, we are coming to
realize that the unexpected can be expected
from Pat Metheny'. Being a relative
youngster In the jazz world, he's got a lot
more new ground to cover, and more
adventurous, more challenging and more Individual material In Ihe makings,

complete with straw hats and canes.
This vaudevilllan focus makes It tough for
the audience to feel the emotion that the
play Is trying to elicit. The audience Is
cheated out o l being moved as much as they
could be in Ihe Last Supper and Crucifixion
scenes. The intimate rapport is never
developed between Christ and His disciples.
When they embrace In the farewell scene the
tenderness Is forced because the rest of the
production gives no reason to believe they
were ever that close.
The best example of this Inconsistency is
Travers' portrayal of Christ. While he Is by
far the most laleneted vocalist on the stage,
he doesn't seem comfortable In his role. He
Is stiff, unnatural, and often seems to be Just
reciting his lines.
Travers Just does not emerge as he should
have as Christ. Instead, the ones who stand
oul are Terrl VandenBosch for her comic
talent and Lisa Ellinger as Mary Magdellne.
As a whole, the supporting cast was more
than capable. They conveyed a contagious
enthusiasm which gave Ihe audience an

timeclock. It hung there clicking off the
minutes In a mindless mechanical cycle.
The oil rack, filled with different
weights of oil and transmission fluid,
was on wheels leaning back against the
yellow wall. Its height was a little less
than half that of the wall.
The two men stood on each side of
the yellow counter. On the wall was the
pay phone and on the counter sat a .
small gym bag..
"Adlos," h e said a n d his gloved hand
hung up the p h o n e . H e looked over at
Jim, who stood on the other side of the
counter. He was wearing his yellow shirt
with a ' H U S O C O ' patch over the left
pocket. A triumphant smile lit up his
face.
"You should get an Academy Award
for that performance," Jim said, holding
out his hand in anticipation of a handshake.
"Let's get outta here before the cops
come."
"This is a perfect crime. Ever since we
were kids, 1 knew I could do It," Jim
proudly proclaimed.
"Almost perfect."
"What do ya mean 'almost'? See how
easy it was? 1 told ya. We didn't even
need a gun."
"I brought one anyway," he said,
pulling a nickel-plated, forty-four caliber
revolver out from under the money in
the gym back. He showed it to Jim.
"Jesus, why'd you bring that cannon?
What were you planning on, killing an
elephant?" Jim asked, stuffing the
money back into the bag.
Again In his precise, cold tone, h'j
said, "No. Killing you."
Jim glanced to the pistol in shock and
disbelief. Within a second, it fired two
shots into him. The last thing he saw
was 4 the kickback of the powerful gun
with each shot.
The first bullet hit Jim squarely in the
chest. His yellow Husoco shirt ripped
from his back as the first shot sprayed
out blood and flesh. The second bullet
him on the left side of his chest, causing
his body to fall into the oil rack, and
both slammed to the floor. Jim's leg
made one vain attempt to rise, but
quickly went back down. The timeclock
corner of the yellow and pegboard walls
was now splattered with bloqd. It looked as if two water balloons of blood had
been thrown into that corner.
Jim's friend walked around Ihe
counter and saw the two large holes In
Jim's chest and the torn, yellow shirt
mixing with Ihe blood beneath him.

Education Not Research
T h e recent furor over the rehiring of Political Science Professor Peter Cocks
once again raises the question of the ultimate purpose of a university,
Although Vice President Martin has now recommended Cock's rehiring to
President O'Lcary, the issue is far from resolved.
Is a university, particularly this one, a "center of learning" or is it primarily
a research facility? Is the j o b of a professor to instruct or to publish?
Professor Cocks is one of S U N Y A ' s most popular and competent instructors. Despite this, he was not going to be rehired just because he did not
publish enough.
This means that a highly skillful instructor would be let go solely because he
did not write anything to make htm famous. Now with this emphasis on
publication, docs this mean that a very poor teacher would be retained only as
a result of his research capabilities?
We understand that in order to gain national prominence as a university,
there must be a certain amount of research done by its professors. But when
that requirement interferes with the quality of undergraduate education provided, then it is time to re-evaluate the priorities.
Emphasis must be placed on teaching, not research.
There is a big difference between a brilliant scholar and a skillful instructor.
Would you rather have a professor who is able to convey his wealth of
knowledge in a spontaneous, attention-grabbing, thought-provoking manner
or one who stands at a lectern and recites his doctoral dissertation? There is a
need for professors who are proficient in the classroom, not for those whose
main skill is in the library.
We applaud the decision to retain Professor Cocks. However, wc should not
forget the issue at hand. We suggest that a committee of facully and students
be formed to decide exactly what the university's emphasis will be. We must
get away from the concentration on publishing rather than teaching.
Maybe then, a situation similar 10 this one would be avoided in the future.'
Tomorrow is Mayfest
Tomorrow is Mayfest, uh, Celebration ' 8 1 . And just because the name is
changed, it doesn't mean we can'l enjoy it as much as we have in past years.
But this time, let's avoid the problems of the past that the administration complained about. That way nobody can threaten to take it away again next year.

UNIONDALE, N.Y. (AP) Butch
Goring's shorihandcd goal woke up
the New York Islanders, who then
added two more second-period
scores in four-and-one-half minutes
Thursday night, including Goring's
game-winner. Tor a 7-3 National
Hockey League semifinal playoff
triumph over the New York
Rangers.
The defending Stanley Cup
champion Islanders lead the bestof-seven series 2-0, with the next
wo games scheduled for Madison
Square Garden Saturday and Tues'ay night.
The Islanders jumped ahead I-I)
ust 48 seconds into the game on
Wayne Merrick's 50-foot slap shot,
then took a prolonged nap as the
Rangers grabbed control. The
Rangers used the relentless checking
style that enabled thme to upset Los
Angeles and St. Louis in earlier
rounds to lake a 3-1 margin after
one period.
Rookie
Doug
Sulllman
backhanded the rebound of a shot
by Don Moloney past Islanders
goalie Billy Smith only 1:09 after
Merrick's tally. Dean Talafous
made it 2-1 Rangers at 8:18, connecting on a backhander while he
was falling over Smith.
That goal was set up by Ron
Duguay,
who
absorbed
simultaneous checks by Islanders
defensemen Ken Morrow and Denis
Potvin but still got the puck to a
breaking Talafous.
Anders Hedbcrg pushed Ihe
Rangers' margin to 3-1 on a power
play at 16:39. The speedy winger
broke down left wing, went around
Islanders forward Billy Carroll and
beat Smith with a backhander.
The second period began the
same way, with the Rangers healing
their local rivals to every loose puck
and dominating the action. Bui,
with Islanders dcl'enseman M.Ike
McEwcn in the penalty box, Goring
mined ihe lide.
The pesky center, who was a
sparkplug in the cam's run to the
Stanley Cup last year, whipped a
30-foot sliol off the glove of
Rangers goalie Steve Baker and Into
Ihe net al 8:11.
Aftei lhat, ihe lone of the game
clearly changed and it didn't take
the Islanders long to lie it. Mike
Bossy, standing in the left faccoff
circle, blasted a power-play shot
past Baker at 10:21.
Goring pin the Islanders ahead
foi good at 12:44 with his second
goal of ihe night. Baker sloppily left
a rebound in front oi the net after
Gold I.ane's slap shot and Goring,
ever the opportunist, pounced on it
and drove it home.

St. Loo Will Get
Most Out Of
NFL Draft Picks
MAY YORK (AP) — It is, of
course, far loo early lo determine
just who "won" and who "lost" in
the National football League's
1981 college drafi. But the St. Louis
Cardinals appear a likely bet to get
Ihe mosl mil of their top picks.
The Cardinals used the entire 15
minutes alloied lo litem in ihe first
round before selecting. E.J. Junior,
Ihe All-America defensive end from
Alabama who is projected as a
linebacker in Ihe pros.
" I hcbiainlitisl back in St. Louis
was really agonizing over that,"
said Gordon Beanie, Ihe man "a
friend of the management" he called himself who handled the Cards'
phone al the Nl-'l draft headquarters in New York.
Beanie said there were no deals
pending dining thai 15 minutes,
shooting down reports that the Los
Angeles Rains, Irvine lo improve on
their No. 9 position in the first
round, were burning up Ihe phone
lines to Si. Louis.
The Cauls also hud lo be thinking
about replacing veteran quarterback Jim Hail some day. The lasl
lime ihey though! really seriously
about ii, they dialled Steve
Pisarkicwie/ in Ihe first round.
He was a busi and, when Coach
Bud Wilkinson ignored team owner
Bill llidwills' demands that he play
Pismkiewicv, be was fired in 1979.
Coach
Jim

cut
Pisarkicwie/ dining training camp
in 1980. When Ihe Cardinals choice
in Ihe second round rolled around,
Neil 1 untax was still there — and
Si. I mils pounced on the quarterback from Portland Slate.
".Iltsl luck," Beanie said. "We
were sin prised • ana/ed, sort of —
ami delighted that he was still
available."
1.untax, a ft-lool-3, 215-pounder

career records including most complclions 938, mosl yards passing 13,
220, mosl touchdown passes 106
and mosl 400-yard games 12. He
has been called by some the best
small-college quarterback since
Terry Bradshaw.
The only quarterback rated
ahead of Lomax — and not by
everybody — is California's Rich
Campbell. The Green Bay Packers,
looking for a return to the glory
years when Bart Starr was their
quarterback and not their embattled coach, picked Campbell in the
first round.
That first round Tuesday was the
"celebrity round" when Heisman
Trophy winner George Rogers, the
South Carolina running back, was
selected No. 1 by New Orleans.
North C a r o l i n a
linebacker
Lawrence Taylor was taken No. 2
by the New York Giants and the
rest of the 28 teams put their futures
— not to mention some small fortunes — on the line with their picks.
On Wednesday, the circus atmosphere at the draft was gone,
replaced by the routine business of
calling off one little-know name
after the other.

The Albany State softball team,
sporting a 9-2 record, lias been
playing very consistently recently
and is well on its way to a berth in
the New York State Association for
Intercollegiate Athletics for Women
(NYSAIAW) playoffs, according to
coach Lee Rhenish.
The team won Wednesday afternoon by a forfeit from New Paltz
and Rhenish reflected on the season

V-a-u-g-h-a-n Spells "Sweet Belief" for Danes
by Bob Bellafiore
If there is one term that best
describes Tuesday's Albany StateRPI clash that pitted two of the top
Division 111 teams in the Capital
District, it is "sweet relief." Both
teams had to rely on their bullpcns
early, and both Engineer reliever
Doug Woods and Dane Jim
Vaughan turned what looked like a
slugfest into a quiet pitcher's duel.
But seven Albany runs in the first
two-innings off RPI starter Paul
Daniell, including a five-run second
proved to be enough as the Danes
beat the visiting Engineers for the
second time this spring, 8-6. The
win boosted Albany's spring record
to 11-1 and was their ninth in a row.
While Albany starter Mike Gartman was having control trouble in
giving up two runs in the first on
leadoff walk, a line double and a
sharp single, the Danes were
treating Daniell with equal
disrespect. A Bob Tortorello walk
and a pair of up-thc-middle singles
by Matt Antalek and Bruce
Rowlands quickly knotted the score
after one.
Gartman got the Engineers out in
order in the second but Albany continued the barrage on Daniell, who
did not last the inning. An opposite
field double by Bobby Rhodes
knocked in Tom Verde and Jerry
Rosen, who had hit on back-toback singles. Jim Lynch walked and

than seven innings all season, struck
out three, walked three, scattered

runner past second base while on
his way to his second win in as

to Vaughan.
"I would'vc started him, but I

job, Woods was even better. He

Winning Habitual as Trackmen Face SUNYACs
I

by Mare Haspel
For head coach Bob Munscy's
Albany State track and field team,
winning is becoming habitual. The
trackmen destroyed Union and
Marisl colleges on Tuesday in a
triangular meet by the convincing
score of 108-60-17. The twin victories increased the Danes' perfect
record to 5-0 as they prepare for
Saturday's SUNYAC Champion-'
ship meet.
Against Union and Marisl, the
Danes had very little trouble.
Albany captured twelve first places
in the triangular meet.
Howie Williams got things
started for Albany with a first place
finish in the 100-mclcr dash.
Despite just returning from a thigh
injury that had kept him out of action for the last six weeks, Williams
st|ll managed a very respectable
11.1 second run.

Newton has done a very good job
filling in, according lo Munsey. "It
shows good depth," commented
Munsey.
Dane Scott James lopped his old
800 meter record with a 1:55.2 in
that event. While in the next event,
the 1500 meters, liruce Shapiro
finished in first place with a timcof
4:03.3. following that was Tim
Kane's 16:05.2 in [he 5000-meter
run.
Steve Decker claimed the
110- high hurdles with a mark of
15.5, as Brian Ragule obtained a
height of 13-2 good for a first place
in the pole vault. Also, Dune relay
teams won both Ihe 1600-meter
relay (3:30.3) as well as in Ihe
400-meter relay with a 44.4.
But perhaps the most impressive
performance of Ihe afternoon was
turned in by Albany's Tim Gunlher
in the leaping events. In the long
jump, Gunlher reached a distance
of 6.10 mclcrs, giving him his first
win oT the day. In the next event,

10,000 Attend SUNYA's Celebration
by Judie Eiscnberg
The fields between Indian and
Dutch quads were fenced- in, the
food area was moved from behind
the Campus center to the lawn
alongside Dutch, tickets were mandatory for admittance and the name
of last Saturday afternoon's event
was changed from Mayfest to
Celebration '81.
Those involved in the operation
of last year's Mayfest said these
changes were necessary to control
crowd size, insure safety and reduce
the strain on university facilities.
University Concert Board (UCB), a
major organizer of the event, said
student cooperation was needed in
order to "preserve this tradition"
and to ensure that Celebration '82
would be held.
But what did Ihe organizers say
after last Saturday's event? Did the
new policies alleviate the problems
experienced last year?
"It came off just fine," said
Dean or Student Affairs Neil
Brown. "The number of people
created problems In the past, but I
didn't sec those problems in

Approximately 18,000 people attended Mayfest '80. According to
Brown, the event was growing in

The Third Annual Human Awareness Program (HAP) held last Sunday through Friday featured a picnic on Ihe lake, Take-A-Prof-To-Lunch, a Teaching and Advising Awards Banquet, and several sports
activities to promote communication and interaction between students, faculty and administration outside an academic arena. According to HAP Committee Chair Mary Beth Lorich, few people attended the
events and virtually no faculty members were involved in its organization. However, she felt it was a success because "the people who got involved really got into the feeling of what HAP's about." Funding for
HAP week activities came from contributions by SUNYA President Vincent O'Leary, Dean of Student
Affairs Neil Brown, UAS and Central Council, as well as an SA income line, said Lorich. The week of
events ended last Friday with the Festival of the Fountains, in which hundreds of students and faculty
members gathered on the podium to watch the fountains being turned back on.

Members or the SUNYA men's
volleyball team have Tiled a suit
against the university with the Office of Civil Rights claiming their
rights were violated when their varsity team was eul and reduced lo
club status.
The team claims thai Title IX was
nol used in determining which
teams would be cm. A student
survey on sludent interest in various
sports which supported men's
volleyball was ignored, said team
member Tom Leahy.
The team also feels its record of
achievement validates its place in
the university. The suit claims
discrimination on the basis of sex
since men were barred from playing
on Ihe women's team.
Last spring the men's varsity
volleyball team was cut in the
budget determined by then Athletic
Director Robert Ford. At that time,
members of the men's team decided
to try out for Ihe women's team.
However, Ford determined this was
unfair since certain rules for Ihe
women's team would be advantageous to men. He noted that
women use a 7-and-one-half-foot
net while men use an eight foot net.
According to Leahy, teams must
be established and maintained on
the basis of a student survey indicating interest and support. In
1980 the men's volleyball team
ranked second on that survey.
However, Leahy said, since there
must also be an equal number of
men's and women's learns, a men's
learn was dropped.
Leahy claims that there is "no
justification" for this since it docsnol adhere lo the student survey.
He says the decision was arbitrary.
"If this can happen to us, not
jusl men's sports but women's
sports can be hurt," Leahy said.
The men's team received club
status and some funding from SA,
since as a varsity team they were
part of the official budget.
In ihe team's five-year history as
a NCAA Division III team, they
had a .713 winning average and had
sent former members to the New
York Slate Men's Gold Medal
Volleyball Team. One rormcr
member was also on the United
States Men's National Team.
Leahy said that since their varsity
status has been cut, they no longer
have priority for money or use of
the gym facilities.
Ted Earl, the coach of the men's
volleyball team, said he is "pleased
that the suit has been accepted (by
the Office for Civil Rights)."
He noted that in conversations
wiih the university administration,
the reasons cited for cutting the
men's team included claims by the
{university that the team used unsafe practice facilities. However,
Earl explained that these facilities
