Senate Tuition Tax Credit Bill Pending
phnlo! UPS
Financial Aids Director WliHIock
"77ie program « . . . not efficient"
by Susan Mllligan
and Frank Gil
A bill under consideration by the
U.S. Senate might help financing
for those who can already afford
college, but the Reagan administration's cuts in education aid make
the proposal irrelevant to lowerincome students, according to
SUNYA Financial Aids Director
Whitlock.
Pending in the Senate Finance
Committee is a bill sponsored by
Daniel Patrick Moynihan (D-N.Y.)
and Bob Packwood (R-Ore.) that
would allow a tax credit to offset
tuition costs of private elementary
and secondary schools as well as of
colleges, Moynihan staffer Jim
Moors said.
The policy would allow for the
deduction of up to $250 per year of
taxes owed although the credit may
not exceed one half of tuition costs,
Moors explained.
Moynihan's office estimates the
cost of the proposal, if fully instituted, to be $2.7 billion the first
year, fiscal 1983, and upwards of $6
billion by 1985.
with such proposals.
A special group of federal officers from Five agencies, including
the Departments of Education and
Treasury, has been established to
study the proposal's "feasibility
and specifics."
to education aid based on income,
such as Pell Grants.
But Moors said there is "no connection whatsoever" between the
Moynihan-Packwood bill and the
current and pending aid cuts.
Whitlock is opposed to such proposals.
Paradoxically, the Reagan administration — although trying to
reduce federal spending and subsidies — is expected to support the
proposal. Assistant Treasury
Secretary for tax policy John E.
Chapoton testified before a Senate
Committee that the Reagan administration docs support tax
credits for tuition, and said its cost
was "probably the most significant
matter" being considered by Administration members concerned
"The tuition tax credits will help
the wealthy subsidize private
schools for their children,"
Whitlock said. "Also, the middle
class will seek this as an opportunity
to grab a price of the pie . . . both
at the expense of the poor."
Moors explained that the bill was
introduced during the Carter administration and said " the cuts that
have been enacted would have occurred regardless of whether the
tax credit bill was passed." He
noted that Moynihan voted against
the education cuts.
Whitlock stated in addition that
the program "is not an efficient
way to provide educational
benefits. Students don't receive
money when it's needed at the
beginning of the semester, but at
the end,"

OCA Director Dunlea Questioned
by Judie Elsenberg
Questions concerning the relationship between Mark Dunlea's
roles as SA's Off-Campus Association (OCA) Director and New York
State Citizen's Party Co-Chair, as
well as his reported use of SA
resources to engage in political activities, have been raised as the
result of an article recently printed
in the Schnectady Gazette.
In Ihe October 16 issue, Gazette
reporter Phil Blanchard reported
that SUNYA administrators were
currently investigating Dunlea's activities to determine whether they
were in violation of state regulations.
Specifically, the SUNY Board of
Trustees mandate that student activity fees may be . used in,
"Assistance to recognized student
organizations, provided that the
purpose and aciivitcs of the
organization are of educational,
cultural, recreational or social
nature," thereby implying fees
should nol be used in support of
political panics.
However, Dean of Sn lent Affairs Neil Hiown said no lu trial investigation in respect 10 ilii-. issue is
now underway.
According to Student Activities
Director Jim Dollefeld, "We're
basically in ihe information gather-
ing siage. At this point in lime we
have no evidence that Dunlea is
engaging in any inappropriate activity."
The Schnectady Gazette article
was based on a Citizen's Party
leaflet whlch>>gave Dunlea's name
and the OCA phone number for
further information, according lo
SA Vice-President Woody Popper.
Popper noted it is SA's responsibility to determine if action is
necessary.
Bui he added, "Wc don't have
reason to believe thai Mark
(Dunlea) is using OCA funds lo
support the Citizen's Parly."
"As far as resources are concerned," Popper continued, "he's ad- .
mined to using the phone. I don't
think there's anything particularly
wrong with his receiving calls on a
once in awhile basis."
If Dunlea received phone calls to
a degree dial hampered his ability
to do his job, it would be wrong,
Popper said. But, al ibis point Popper doesn't perceive il to be a problem.
Dunlea said the only relationship
between OCA and the Citizen's
Parly "is me, obviously. It's obvious thai benusc I am in Ihe
Citizen's Party people questioned
the relationship.
Resignations Leave
New Paltz SA in Doubt
by Fcllciu Bcrgcr
All Ihe officers of Ihe SUNY College at New Paltz Student Association (SA) have resigned over academic and personal concerns, accor
ding to their SA Manager Nadine Spies.
Presently the only SA officer left is President Brenda Lewis, whose
resignation will become effective with Ihe election of a new SA president this week.
New Paltz students will vole for new government officers, as well as
for revisions made on their SA constitution, said Spies.
The revisions, written by an ad hoc student assembly, create a student senate to represent the needs and concerns of Ihe student body.
This senate is to be separate from the already existing Student Council, which is made up of SA'member organizations and concerns itself
primarily witli monetary matters.
"I'm not too worried," Dunlea
added. "I'm nol stupid — I don't
spend OCA money for the Citizen's
Parly."
Dunlea added thai the four
community service interns working
in OCA were instructed not lo promote Citizen Parly candidates and
to otherwise keep the two groups
separate.
As for printing the OCA phone
number on Ihe Citizen's Parly
leaflet, Dunlea said he "didn't
think it through. II was a mistake —
it won't happen in Ihc future."
However, he sees nothing wrong
in accepting Citizen Parly calls in
the OCA office. "I work here from
10 lo 4. It's where the press can
reach me during the day," he said,
adding llial he did a loi of his OCA
work al night.
"They're going to call mc here
anyway," Dunlea added. "I'll
discourage llieni bin . . . . "
pfiiiln: Bob Leonard
Off-Campus Association Director Mark Dunlea
"I don't spent OCA money for Ihe Citizen's Party"
SA President Dave Pologe said,
"Wc don't want him to use the
OCA number as a contact point"'
but if someone calls in il would
seem ridiculous nol to answer ihe
phone.
As far as SA can tell, Pologe
said, Dunlea did not misuse student
activity fees. But Pologe has told
Dunlea he did not want Ihe OCA
number lo appear on further
Citizen Party leaflets.
Police Ponder Pine Hills Assault
by Susan Smith
A recent sexual abuse incident occuring in the Pine Hills area has
reopened the case of the Pine Hills
Molester, according to Albany
Police Captain John Dale.
On Monday, October 12, at 4:45
a.m., an assailant broke a window
and entered the Willct St. apartment of a 34-year-old Albany
woman. Dale said the assailant,
described as a black male between
17 and 20 years of age, "went to the
woman's bed . . . and knell down
on one knee at the foot of her bed.
He then put his hand under the
covers and was reaching to touch
her when she screamed." Dale said
the suspect then fled.
The suspect was described as
5'8", 140 lbs. and wearing blue
jeans, a sweat shirt, and sneakers.
The woman said she was able to see
the attacker because her apartment
was lit.
"We just don't know if it is the
same guy," said Dale, referring to
the Pine Hills Molester.
A rash of incidents involving the
molester look place over a year ago
in the Pine Hills area where many
students live. In those cases the
assailant slipped through unlocked
doors or windows into apartments
occupied by young females. The intruders fondled the women and fled
when they screamed.
"There arc similarities and differences between this crime and the
approximately 40 reports of the
past molester," Dale said.
The similiarities include the
physical make-up of the assailant
and the nature of the crime.
However, several differences
have lead Albany police to believe
the Willct St. attack may be an
/
l
isolated incident. The intruder in
this ease was described as having a
light compaction and freckles,
while Ihe Pine Hills Molcslcr was
believed lo havew a darker complcciion and no freckles.
Further, while the latest assailant
broke a window to enter the apartment, the Molester did not force entry.
Another difference is that women
attacked by the Pine Hills Molester
were somewhat younger than the
Willet St. victim.
Dale refused to comment on
whether Albany "Police would increase patrol cars in the Pine Hills
area.

network and her own labor union.
Throughout her career as an aclivisl, Michelson said, she has seen
"racism and classism as primary
contradictions in ihe United
Stales." She feels that until recently
racism has been a background
issue. "This is Ihe firsl time in a
long lime lhal people of different
political perspectives have come
together lo organize against
racism," Michelson said.
One of Michclson's concerns al
litis point is the continuance of a
strong force against racism in
Albany, and around the world. She
said she sees Ihe CAA as " a strong,
mulli-racial organization thai learned lo work together very quickly in
a very positive way, and will continue to struggle against racism."
Michelson feels that the fact that
the rugby game was played shows
how important it is for the government to protect U.S. financial interests in South Africa. She said,
"they would protect the South
African racist at all costs (to protect
financial interests)."
Michclson's attorney Anita
Thayer is now questioning the
validity of the search warrant,
which Michelson called " a lotal
police departmenl fantasy." Two
oT Ihe sources quoted in the search
warrant have stated dial the information in Ihe warrant pertaining lo
them is false. Oilier information is
attributed lo a confidential informant who, Thayer noted, may not
have had first hand information.
Thayer is also planning lo file a
complaint wilh the Albany police
aboul the way Ihe arresl was handled. Al Ihe lime of Ihe arresl, police
confiscated from Michclson's
apartment iwo personal phone
books, a recent phone bill, community address lists and a list of
members of the CAA.
Captain John Dale, spokesperson
for Ihe Albany police, said lhal
Activist Vera Michelson
" / consider the arresl a frame-up"
some of the items seized by police
were nol included in the sworn inventory filed with Ihe search warrant. He had no further comment
on the search warrant.
Michelson said that she was not
allowed to make a phone call until
after her arraignment, seven hours
after her arrest. And she said she
was held without bail for 48'hours
for less lhan misdemeanor charges.
She feels both of Ihcsc arc in violalion of her civil rights.
Michclson's reaction lo Ihe way
she feels the police treated her was
in some ways positive. "It just

New Chair Takes Control
WARSAW, Poland (AP) Premier Wojciech Jaruzclski,
taking over (he ruling Communist Party after the ouster
of Stanislaw Kania, warned the Solidarity labor movement that the regime's "possibilities for retreat have
been exhausted."
The 200-member Central Committee that elected
Jaruzclski Sunday demanded the independent trade
union stop strikes, obey the law and help restore the nation's shattered economy. It also demanded negotiation
of worker rights won during last summer's strikes and
threatened to impose martial law.
Kania, who after 14 chaotic months failed to contain
Solidarity's bold challenge to the regime, resigned during a stormy committee session. After being tapped to
succeed him, Jaruzelski said the committee would meet
later this week with the Sejm, Poland's Parliament, to
make more policy changes.
The 58-year-old Jaruzelski, who is also defense
minister and a Soviet-trained army general, became Ihc
first Polish leader to run the military, the govcrnmenl
and the Communist Party at the same lime.
Nobel Prize Awarded
STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) Two Americans and a
Swede won the 1981 Nobel Prize for Physics for llieir
development of two types of spectroscopes vital in
nuclear studies.
Professor Kai Siegbahn of Uppsala University got one
half of the $180,000 award, Ihc other half was shared by
professors Nicolaas Bloembcrgcn of Harvard and Arthur Schawlow of California's Stanford University.
Bloembcrgcn, the third Harvard professor to receive a
Nobel Prize this year, and Schawlow were cited by Ihc
Swedish Academy of Sciences for their contribution lo
"the development of laser spectroscopy."
Siegbahn was cited "for his contribution to the
development of high-resolution electron spectroscopy."
The laser spectroscope, developed by Bloembcrgcn
and Shawlow, is used lo study atoms with laser light
beams.
Socialists Win Greek Vote
ATHENS, Greece (AP) Andreas Papandrcou and his
left-leaning Panhellcnic Socialist Movement swept the
Greek elections on a platform calling for withdrawal
from NATO, the closure of American bases and a
referendum on continued membership in the European
Common Market. Premier George Rallis conceded the
defeat of his conservative New Democracy Parly Sunday evening as returns from the day's balloting signaled
a radical shift in the nation's pro-Western policy. With
nearly two-thirds of the vote counted, the charismalie
Papandriou's Panhellcnic Socialist Movement — Pasok
— had 47.7 percent of the popular vole, more than
enough lo control the 300 scat unicameral Parliament.
Reagan Concedes Recession
WASHINGTON O.C. (AP) President Reagan, saying
what administration officials have carefully avoided, is
acknowledging for Ihc first time that the nation's
economy is in a recession.
But Reagan says it's mild, and his chief economic adviser says "forces already arc in motion" to reverse it.
"I think there's a slight recession and 1 hope a short
recession," Reagan said Sunday on the While House
lawn before leaving by helicopter to meet with French
President Francois Mitterrand al Williamsburg Va. "I
think everyone agrees on that."
Later Sunday, Murray Weidenbaum, chairman of
Reagan's Council of Economic Advisers, said in a statement "there are increasing signs that the economy has
entered what can be called a recession," including a
drop in industrial productivity, rising unemployment
claims and the weak housing market.
Mexico Hosts Summit
CANCUN, Mexico (AP) Bangladesh is desperately poor
and needs foreign food aid. The Philippines is growing
rapidly and seeks larger export markets. Saudi Arabia is
rolling in oil money but wants lo diversify its economy.
Despite vastly different needs and stages of development, these and other Third World countries arc bringing a common program to the Cancun summit here this
week: They want a new International economic order.
Developing countries, represented as the south in the
so-called north-south dialogue, say Ihe current structure
of world economic relations is unfair to them and in the
long run, not even beneficial to the rich countries of the
north.
President Reagan set the tone for the likely U.S.
response to Third World demands in a speech last week
to the World Affairs Council In Philadelphia. He said
critics "flirt with fantasy" when they suggest the international economic system is unfair.
He also reaffirmed his administration's belief that
private investment is the key tool for developing the
underdeveloped world.
The developing nations hope to reach a breakthrough
on global negotiations on trade and money issues at the
two-day summit opening here Thursday.
U.S. Detects Soviet Test
WASHINGTON D.C. (AP) An apparent underground

Siberia, the department announced Sunday.

WASHINGTON D.C. (AP) Navy officials and an aide
of Attorney General William French Smith will meel

fight against drug smugglers, Sen. Lloyd Bcnlscn has
announced.
Bcnlscn released a letter from Smith on Saturday in
which Ihc attorney general agreed with Ihc Texas
Democrat that the Coast Guard needs help in trying to
apprehend drug traffickers.
Bcnlscn, who had complained lasl June about "an
alarming increase in drug traffic," asked Smith to accept the recommendation of the attorney general's
"Task Force on Violent Crime" that the Navy might be
utilized.
Baker Sees Budget Changes
WASHINGTON D.C. (AP) With Ihc While House saying the next move is up lo Congress, Senate Majority
Leader Howard H. Baker Jr. is predicting "a lot of ,uggling" in President Reagan's lalcsl budget plans. A
growing possibility, sources said, is more selective tax increases and fewer budget cuts than Reagan has proposed.
Baker met Sunday at Ihc While House with presidential counselor Edwin Meesc III, chief of staff James A.
Baker 111 and budget director David A. Stockman to

charges of violence lhat were unfounded," Michelson said.
WASHINGTON D.C.(AP) Lawyers for John W. Hinckley Jr. argued in federal court today that documents
written by the accused presidential assailant were taken
from his cell illegally and should not be used in his trial.
With Hinckley watching intently, one of his lawyers,
Gregory B. Craig, questioned a federal official aboul
seizure of the documents from Hinckley's quarters al

Judge Barrington D. Parker agreed with the request

Oil Cleanup to Begin
MORRISBURG, Ontario (AP) The cleanup. oi a

The official reported Sunday thai the slick of about
1,000 gallons of heavy bunker C oil stretches
downstream from the Ontario locks at Iroquois lo Morrisburg, a section of the river between Ogdcnsburg,
N.Y., and Massena, N.Y. It was discovered Saturday
afternoon and is worse on the Canadian side of ihc

U.S. and Canadian coast guards inspected the site and
will take samples from the slick and ships thai passed
through the area to determine who is responsible. If
samples match, charges would be laid under the Canada
Shipping Acl.
The official said the ship which caused the spill will
receive a bill for Ihe cleanup, which could cost the Canadian coast guard $15,000.

• Michelson was charged with
possession of marijuana and

that led to her arrest but also Ihc
police handling of the matter.
Michelson has been active in the

worked on arc welfare rights and
anti-draft, anti-war, and U.S.
hands off Iran campaigns. She has'
also been involved in organizations

their degrees.
Just as the controversial proficiency tests have spread on the high
school level — a movement largely
fueled by parental and college admissions officers' complaints that
high schools grads aren't well
educated — they now appear to be
making inroads on the college level
as well.
Most recently, a University of

recommended two weeks ago that
undergraduates
pass
a
"comprehensive" final exam in
their majors before being allowed
to graduate.
Individual departments within
Hie university — not semiindependent testing companies like

students are coming (to Oklahoma)

have been forced to simply ease
them through the system. As a
result, our academic standards have
visibly declined."
There remains some confusion
about how many other schools require such tests. The University of
Colorado last year decided to allow
— but not require — individual
departments to.give them. But Arts

notes, "I don't think (the option)

Return to Basic Skills is Emphasized
by Frank Gil
An emphasis on basic skills such
as reading and writing is the longrange goal of the College Hoard's
10-ycar-progrum to improve the
preparedness of high school
students, according to SUNYA
Director of Admissions Rodney
Hart.
According to The Chronicle of
Higher Education, the board,
which sponsors the Scholastic Aptitude Test and the College Scholarship Service, "hopes that improving
secondary education generally will
have the added benefit of increasing
minority-group students' access to
higher education."
Coined "Project Equality," the
program's goal, the article slated,
"is lo develop a national standard
of achievement for students who
plan lo attend college, as well as a
national definition of academic
competency."
Colleges and universities will be
encouraged to adopt the competency and academic curriculum slan-
dards as a preference, if not an absolute standard. High schools will
also be asked to review their programs in light of the board's competency standards.
' .
Areas such as reading, writing,
speaking, listening, mathematics,
reasoning and studying are all being
considered for improvement.
"There is no doubt students are
not as prepared as (they were) years
ago," said Hart. "Students today
are much more aware socially and
politically, but their basics are not

traditional measures will not take
away from student awareness,"
Hart added.
Hart felt the changes will not
have an effect on the standards for
admission to SUNYA, even though
he thought the program will probably improve on the skills of the
college bound students.
"The college board is trying to
revitalize itself," Hart said.
"Assuring students success in college is an aim of the program."

Jeffreys, a 37 year-old black slngersongwrlter born and raised In Sheepshead

career since his first release In 1973. Jeffreys
had his firsl big breakthrough wllh Ihe release
of his 1979 LP, American Boy and Girl,

was overflowing with people who had paid
$9.50 at the dpor to witness Jeffreys' first
Albany appearance In two years.
Jeffreys was not out to disappoint them.
He played a mixture of rock ' n ' roll and
Jamaican influenced reggae, delighting the
audience more with each song. Backed by

In Albany
he message of Rastafari comes to S.U.N.Y.! Blacksheep. a fine young reggae
band played in Ihe box'-like Campus Center Ballroom on Friday night to a small
yet very appreciative audience of students and others from the Albany
community. The rhythm and sway cif the West Indies (via Philadelphia) and fine performances by all six members of Blacksheep combined to create a happy, hearty and spirited
posilive vibration on the dance floor.
Whereas reggae music is nol overly popular on campus, there are always folks who will
come out to hear the sounds Ihal Ihey love. With Ihe zealous efforts of the Pan Carribean
Association, this concert has served to spread the rhythms and harmonies of reggae to
ninny more eager ears. Two recent performances given ny Blacksheep at J.B. Scott's were

section that lays down the best groove In all
of music, The Taxi All-Stars. Their show last
Tuesday night at the Rltz in NYC was a true
expression of hope, and it exemplified just
what makes reggae music such a powerful
medium.
Performing material from all three of their
albums. Black Uhuru constantly entranced
the capaclly crowd, both visually and aurally. "Sponji Reggae," from their most recent
album Red and "Happiness," off o( the
Sinsemllla LP, are the band's most well
known songs, and accordingly brought out
the greatest reaction from the crowd. Older
material, such as "Abortion" and the sing-along, "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, Natty Dreadlock," were also received with great
fervor, and It was nearly Impossible nol lo be
swept away by the emotionality and
spirituality of this group and their music.
Rhythm Is intrinsic lo all reggae music,
and rhythm is what sets Black Uhuru apart
from all other bands. The bass-drum com--
blnatlon of Sly Dunbar and Robbie
Shakespeare are world-renowned, and the
Incomparable "Rhythm twins," who usually
do not tour with the groups they produce,
have chosen to do a select tew shows with
Black Uhuru. Their dance pulsations are
undeniable; Robbie's bass line sneaks
around Sly's drum pattern, first taking lead
then letting Sly take over with a double or triple time rhythm. The rhythmic variations
these two produce turn each song Into an
adventure, and at times it's hard to believe
how just two Instruments can make you want
to move your feet so much,
Hopefully Black Uhuru will tour a bit more
extensively In the future so everyone can get
a chance to see them.-The.only possible problem forseeable for this group Is too much
popularity and critical acclaim being placed
on them; It could be a tremendous burden,
especially when comparisons to Bob Marley
and the Wallers are Inevitable. It seems,
though, that Michael Rose has the type-of
personality necessary to handle all the
praise, and there is no real reason why Black
Uhuru should not only be at the top of the
reggae world for many years to come, but
should also be able to transcend those seemingly uncrossable boundaries.

Robin Hood Is Dead
Check it out. The new tax credit proposal is here. Believe it
when we say we're not just looking for something to pick on, but
when something good comes along we can't resist.
This tax credit, introduced by Senators Moynihan (D-NY) and
Packwood (R-OR) will provide a maximum $250 tax credit to
families whose children are enrolled in private elementary and
secondary schools, or public and private post-secondary schools.
What's strange here is the balance of the cost involved. President Reagan has vowed to balance the federal budget. At the
same time he has come out in favor of this tax credit.
By the year 1984, this program may cost up to $6 billion.
Where will this money come from? Financial aid programs? It's
certainly a possibility.
The most predictable thing about this proposal is that it is
useless to the poor and benefits the rich. In order to be eligible for
the program, families have to be in or above a lower-middle class
tax bracket.
If all goes through the way wc think it will, Robin Hood will be
turning over in his grave.
The Warriors
The Middle East has recently experienced the traumatic deaths
of two great leaders. Anwar el-Sadat was felled by assassins''
bullets on October 6 and Moshc Dayan died from a heart attack
last Friday. Both men, whether right or wrong, worked for what
they believed in, with each seeking the betterment of the world
situation. They were very different but, in many ways, very
similar. Their losses arc important not only in a political way but
in a spiritual way as well. The world will miss them.

Ideas For UAS
To the Editor:
An idea for UAS whose lime has come:
the commuter $2.00 special. 1 have the campus center option on my meal plan, but Find
I'm rarely able to eat enough and still stay
below the $2.00 limit. Even the specials
(sandwich, soup, Coke) nearly always exceed the $2.00 mark (unless it's baloney, in
which case who really cares?).
What I propose is a daily $2.00 (no tax)
special that would allow the commuter to
hand over his meal card without digging into his pocket for change. Granted, UAS
might take a "beating" on some of the
more expensive meals, but would be able to
compensate with cheaper dishes on alternate days.
The renovation of the commuter
cafeteria was admirable; let's apply the
same thinking to the food itself.

Jeremiah Weed* Bourbon liqueur. ® 1981 Heublein, Inc., Hartford, Conn.
Lasorda bounced out of. the
dugout and called on Welch. Welch
came in and got White to bounce
out to end the game.
The Expos jumped on Valenzuela
in the first inning.
Tim Raines fought off a 0-2
count and doubled to right center
on a 3-2 pitch. Raines advanced to
third when Valenzuela fielded
Rodney Scotl's bunt and threw too
late to third to get Raines. Scott was
safe at first on the fielder's choice
sacrifice.
Raines then scored when Andre
Dawson grounded into a double
play. Carter filed lo center, ending
the inning.
The Dodgers had threatened
against Burris in the first When Bill
Russell tripled into the right field
corner, but the Expos right-hander
retired Dusty Baker and Oarvcy to
work out of trouble. In the rourth,
Ihe Dodgers again got a runner to
third, but couldn't get him home.
Russell then singled to left the
Dodgers' second hit of the game.
He took second when Baker tapped
in front of the plate and was thrown
out. Garvey's long fly to left advanced Russell to third, but Cey
then fouled out to first baseman
Warren Cromartie.
Los Angeles tied it 1-1' in the
fifth, with their first run in 14 innings off Burris, who shut them out
in the second game of the series.
Monday opened the inning with a
single and raced to third on a single
by Pedro Guerrero. The Expos'
bullpen stirred, as Sun Bahnsen
began loosening up.
Burris, however, retired Mike
Scioscia on a line drive to Scott at
second for the first out. But Valenzuela, one of baseball's better hitting pitchers, grounded to the right
side scoring Monday.
Now Rogers, the Expos' ace,
joined Bahnsen throwing in the
bullpen. Davey Lopes got a life and
Guerrero moved to third when
shortstop Chris Speier threw high to
first for an error. Burris, however,
worked out of the jam, by retiring
Russell on an infield out.
Meanwhile, after Scott's fielder's
choice sacrifice in the first, only
three Expos reached base against
Valenzuela through the seventh.
Carter singled with two out in the
fourth; Parrish doubled with two
down in the seventh, and Cromartie
received an intentional walk after a
2-2 count, also in ihe seventh.
At the start of the Dodgers' sixth,
Jeff Rcardon began warming up.
His relief work through the
September stretch and in the intradivision scries victory over
Philadelphia helped win the league
championship scries. He was joined
by left-hander Woodie Fryman. But
Burris retired ihe Dodgers In order,
and the Montreal bullpen relaxed.
Valenzuela, who had retired 19 of
20 batters through the first two
Monlreal outs in the seventh, then
ran into trouble.
Parrish doubled to left on a J I
count, ana White was then purposely walked. But Valenzuela gol
out of the jam by retiring Cromartie
on a foul to the catcher.
Montreal Manager Jim Fanning
sent outfielder Tim Wallach to bat
for Burris in the eighth, but he was
just the second out as Valenzuela
struck out one and walked .one in
eight innings.

by Sharon Cole
Peggy Mann moved one step
closer Saturday to her twentieth
consecutive winning season, as the
Albany State women's tennis team

The win was played at Union and

Mann said, "the weather was
beautiful; the best we've ever had."

right for the Danes by winning her
match 6-2, 6-4. Carl Solomon
quickly followed suit by winning In
strong style, 6-0, 6-1, as did Pam
Duchin, 6-2, 6-3.
The Danes' only two losses on the
day were by Lauren Isaacs, 2-6,4-6,
and Ellen Yun, 6-2, 5-7, 0-6, the
team's only freshman.
In doubles action Sandra Borclle
and Karen O'Connor won 6-2, 6-1,

Mann is confident that wins will
be scored Monday at Oneonta and
Wednesday at Amherst. If the
Danes are successful this will mark
20 years of winning seasons. Mann
has not yet had a losing season in
her 19 years as tennis coach at
Albany.
Mann will be taking her two top
singles players and doubles teams to
Rochester this weekend for the
State Championships. Making the
trip will be singles players Cari
Solomon and Duchin, and doubles
teams Light and Joan Phillips, and
Borclle and O'Connor.
Phillips didn't play in the Union
match because of a hurt knee, but
Mann is hoping she will be complctcy recovered for the Rochester
trip.
Top colleges from Divisions I and
II will jojH division III Albany in
the states. Mann is sending the
Danes lo the higher level contest
because she "likes the competition
these schools offer."
Mann knows the competition will
be tough but said, "I think we're
going lo do well."
A 5-2 win over Union puts Coach Peggy Mann well on the way to her twentieth winning season as coach. (Photo: Mike Fuller)

HOMECOMING «
MONTREAL (AP) Outfielder Rick
Monday slammed a two-out home
run in the ninth inning and rookie
Fernando Valcnzuela allowed only
three hits in 8 2/3 innings as the Los
Angeles Dodgers beat the Montreal
Expos 2-1 Monday for the National
League pennant.
Reliever Bob Welch got the final
out on one pitch.
The Dodgers, winning their
fourth league championship scries,
qualified lo meet the American
League champion New York
Yankees in the World Series beginning Tuesday night at New York.
Los Angeles won the NL scries
3-2, splitting the first two games at
home,, falling behind by losing the
third game here, then rallying to
win the final two.
The deciding game was postponed because of rain aftci more than a
four-hour wait Sunday and was
delayed 26 minutes because of rain
Monday.
It was the first home run of the
series for Monday, who was put into the lineup in the third game for
slumping Ken Landreaux.
Monday, who had 11 home runs
during the regular season, homered
off Montreal ace Steve Rogers, who
made his first relief appearance
since July 3, 1978.

Ron Cey in the ninth before Monday drove a 3-1 pitqh over the center

swept outside, but he only gained
one and Cortland took over.
After being set back by a delay of
game penalty, the Dragons moved
downfield from their own 20 yard
line to the Albany 23, including a
38-yard gain by Cook. On fourthand-ninc, Armstrong's field goal attempt of 41 yards was no good, giving the Danes another chance.
But Albany could do little as on
third-and-nlne at tlieir own 24,
Brien threw a split-end option pass
on a reverse from Roth that was intercepted at the Albany 36 by Armstrong playing in the defensive
secondary.
Albany had one more chance in
the game to score when with under
a minute remaining, the Danes took
over al their own 20 yard line. After
a Priore handoff gained only one
yard, Roth connected with Ennls
for a 25-yard pass completion putting the Danes very near midfield.
But lime ran out on Albany
before the Danes could go any further. Rolh overthrew' an open
Priore downfield, then a quarterback keeper moved the ball just six
yards. On the final play of the game
Roth threw an Incomplete pass.
On the day, Roth was 10 for 19
for 106 yards and, in the final
quarter, he proved thai he could
lead the offense. But on lliis day
time ran out too soon.
As co-captain Priore said afterwards, "It's funny, we played one
quarter of football and they played
three and we almost beat them."
But' for Albany the loss has to
have mote immediate effect on their
playoff chances. "I'd have to say
that our playoff chances have been
disasterously crushed afler this
one," said Ford.

There are many topics to discuss in a column, but the conversation
always returns to apathy, to lack of school spirit. I'm not going to
harp on this issue telling you how great the Albany teams are and write
that I just can't understand why the student body is like they are. No!
' I'm sure you read the newspaper and realize the Danes are doing
well. I know we all have a lot of work to do on Saturday afternoons.
Or maybe you're just too strung out from Friday night to walk over to
the football field.
Of course, the students at the University of Michigan have the same
problems and 105,000 Tans turn out at Michigan Stadium to watch the
Wolverines.
Okay, it's cool. But this weekend is Homecoming Weekend — a
special event at SUN YA. It's also Parents' Weekend and many or your
parents will be on campus. How about this for an idea: since you're
not going to be doing any work and will be wide awake, why not try a
Danes vs. Norwich football game.
I'll guarantee that you will not be bored by the great Albany defense
and the running exploits of Chuck Priore. If you are put to sleep by
this great rivalry then send your letters lo me.
However, there is something that has stumped me. Intramurals are
taken seriously by many people al SUNYA. In softball alone, over 100
teams are competing for the shirts. In the pasl, there has been criticism
concerning the ASP'i coverage of the inlramural sports scene. We're
doing our best to improve the situation, One of the new innovations is
the/ISP Intramural Athlete of the Week. We thought we advertised its
start very well. The winner receives a Budweiser jackei worth 23 bucks
— a pretty fair deal.
Interestingly, I walk in here to the office Monday and expect lo
find 20, maybe 30, nominations from inlramural coaches. I found
two! Give me a break. Lei's go to the videotape. 1 told Larry Kahn,
the Sports Editor, that the contest jusl began and people need lime lo
catch on. Please — prove me right. I can'l possibly understand why
there would be no Interest in this feature,
To conclude, I urn simply trying lo say participate in the Homecoming Weekend festivities, take in the football game, and show some interest in the ASP Athlete of the Week contest.
The women's varsity soccer team
ended its streak of nine victories
after suffering a 5-0 defeat this past
Saturday against the University of
Rochester. The highly ranked opponent displayed pinpoint accuracy as
"they made no mistakes — and
capitalized on all of ours," explained Dane Coach Amy Kidder.
Difficulties began for Albany
during the first period when
Rochester converted on a penalty
kick, and then went on to score
three more times before the
halftlme break. Albany came out
with a strong second half — giving
up only one goal. However, as was
the problem the entire contest, the
Dane offense was completely shut
down.
In spite of the fact that five balls
found their way to the net,
goalkeeper Laurie Briggs put forth
an outstanding effort. Totaling an
impressive 15 saves for the day, the
senior was "able to save the first
shots, but not the second or the
third," according to Kidder.
Now, with only four games remaining, the booters look forward
to participating in the State Tourna-

Frustration is the key thought
right now," said Coach Bill Schieffelin, commenting on his Albany
Stale men's soccer team's 4-1 loss to
Binghamlon Saturday.
Schieffelin said he thought it was
a "well played game", but the team
had problems "not being able to get
the ball in the net" as well as playing with an inexperienced defense.
Binghamton scored the first goal
of the game al 4:20 off a direct free
kick. Binghamton's Nate Gcorgio
made the second goal 20 minutes into the first half. Albany's only goal
was made about 30 minutes into the
first half by Afram Neraj.
Sixteen minutes into the second
half a shot by Oeorgio slipped out
of gbaltender Bill Steffen's hands
for Binghamton's third goal. A
defense change could not stop
Binghamton from scoring again
with 15 minutes left in the game.
Binghamton out shot Albany
•13-8, but the Colonial goalie had
only four saves to Steffen's seven.
Schieffelin felt that injuries as
well as a need to rebuild the team
more than he thought he would
contributed to this loss and the unsuccessful season.
"Normally at this time of year we
are in contention for the NCAAs,"
said the disappointed coach, adding
that al this point in the season he is
concentrating in trying to build up
the team for next year.

es Run Out of Time; Cortland Wins, 20-14
by Marc Haspel
CORTLAND — Usually 60
minutes of football is more than
ample time for a team to answer
any lingering pre-game questions.'
Normally those questions left
unanswered by game time get
answered by game's end. But the i
question facing the Albany State.
Great Danes prior to Saturday's
game with the Cortland Red'
Dragons at Carl "Chugger" Davis
Field wasn't just a normal question.
P
Rather, considering the time of
the season, it was quite an extraordinary one: whether or not an inexperienced sophomore quarterback,
Tom Roth, could lead the wishbone
offense in place of the injured Tom
Pratt? For a good part of the game,
it appeared maybe not right away.
It looked as if Roth needed more
time to adjust. Then as the game
wore on, the answer began to look
increasingly yes. However, time ran

to the Albany game plan right off

Rose also prepared to "preclude
the FOIA as a means to circumvent
the discovery rules by parties in
litigation." Legally, Sheehan said,
lawyers cannot present "surprises"
in court; they rflust demand relevant
information from the adversary
party before trial. Sheehan said the
FOIA is often used to skirt that
rule.
Further, the Assistant Attorney
General asked for "a more
reasonable time limit" for agencies
to respond to FOI requests. The
current deadline for initial response
is ten days.
In addition, the proposal would
establish a procedure by which parties submitting classified material
may object to the release of that
material, If the revisions are approved, a person or agency who
submitted sensitive material would
be notified beforehand each time
that material is requested, thus
allowing the submitter to argue the
case in court.
The Reagan administration proposal would also permit the government to charge requisition fees that
"more closely resemble the cost to
research and find a document,"
Sheehan said. Currently, the
government . may charge for
photocopy costs, but not for
research.
Lastly, the proposal would provide for two new exemptions from
the act: records generated in legal
settlements and records containing
"highly technical information the
export of which is controlled by
law," Rose testified.
Sheehan said the Reagan administration is worried that a
foreign government might set up an
agency in the United States for the
purpose of obtaining national
security information through the
FOIA.
Sheehan said the outright exclusion of the CIA from the act was
not directly proposed, but the exclusion of "informant records" was
provided for in the new revisions.
Sheehan said, however, he expects
the administration will eventually
propose a bill completely excluding
the CIA from FOIA compliance.
The most vehement opposition to
the proposal has come from journalists; Reporter's Committee for
Freedom of the Press President
Jack Landau described the action as
"a frontal assault."
A spokesperson for FEN, an
association of writers, said ther
organization "is definitely against
ihc new guidelines.
"They close resources for journalists . . . close the FBI and the
CIA . . . and set a precedent for
other agencies," she' said. "We
have protested (such attempts) constantly throughout the years."
Bob Freeman, who directs FOIA
requests in New York State, said he
"tends to think that many reacting
to the federal FOIA have lost sight
of the original intention of the
act . . . (and it's) very simple: make
all government records available
unless it would hurt the agency.
"I prefer to see exemptions made
that are potentially harmful than
exemptions that remove rights of
access," he said, "for the CIA or
any other agency."

The proposal is pending in committee.
