At that point, the game turned.
"It was tough for us to play without
half our offense," explained
Sauers. "He makes things happen
out there."
. "Our game changed treraendous-
could, but it took a lot longer,"
noted Sauers.
In that game Albany's shooting
was not up to par, but on Saturday
against Buffalo State it got worse.
Gatto, normally one of the Danes'
top marksmen, missed II of 12
shots from the floor, many of them
offensive rebounds that he failed to
convert. All told, Albany had 25 offensive rebounds, but "none of
them seemed to go in when we got
them, anyway," Sauers lamented.
Physical problems also plagued
the Danes. Jan Zadoorian, a starling guard, was" bothered by a cold
and played only four minutes.
Dicckclman's ankle, injured two
weeks ago, was bothering him.
"We're dragging a little bit," said
Sauers. "It's been hard. We've got
the walking wounded out there."
Albany kept the game close most
of the first half, but trailed the
Bengals 35-30 at the intermission.
But at the start of the second half
Buffalo State started running all
over the Dane defense. They buill
up an 11 point margin with 12:25
remaining in the game.
But once again the Danes rallied
back. Croutier and Dennis Fagan
got hot and Albany narrowed the
gap. A Dieckciman tap-in with 2:26
left brought the score lo 66-64.

They weren't. The Danes were.
Albany had only two scmlexperienced guards left. Dave

wasn't enough.
The Bulls quickly pulled out in

BUFFALO — After all the smoke had cleared on Saturday, the
SUNYAC had crowned a surprise champion. The previously 11-15
University of Buffalo Bulls, seeded fourth in Ihe tournament, defeated
Ihc Potsdam Bears for the conference title and an automatic bid lo the
East Regional of the NCAA Division 111 tournament.
"The team played hard," said UB basketball head coach Bill
Hughes. "It was a big win for us."
The Bulls were led by guard Karon Henderson and forward John
Fitzpatrick. Each chipped in with 27 points in the title game. Henderson, ejected from the first game against Albany after fighting with
Dane Dan Croutier, earned.all-tournament honors, while Fitzpatrick
was named tournament Most Valuable Player.
Last year's tournament MVP, John Dieckciman, was Albany's only
representative on Ihc all-tournament squad. Joining Dicckelman on
the all-star learn was Buffalo Slate's Terry Burch, who scored 27
points in the consolation game against Albany, and Potsdam's
Maurice Woods.
Woods fouled out of the physical title contest wilh 6:49 remaining in
Ihe second half. Hughes felt that the Bulls frustrated Potsdam by varying Iheir defensive formations.
"Our defense was perfect. I thought it hurt them," said Hughes.
He noted thai the Bulls had developed winning character by playing
a long season, including games against several Division I and Division
II opponents.
"We've played a tougher schedule," said Hughes. "We've hung in. ,
"I'm proud," he continued, "and a little surprised."

Approximately 30 people attended Ihc public hearing on Ihe

"Nobody asked me if I could attend the meeting. 1 was tied up

Harligan also had something else

O'Leary told the group that he

budget goes through, then there will
be no bus fee," he said. But
everything has to be looked at if the
budget is changed.
OCA spokesperson John Wenske
wanted to make sure no fee is imposed because "once the fee has

Hartigan sees "the question raised by a number of students about a

Sandinista Ignores Haig
MANAGUA, Nicangnii (AP) The leftist Sandinista
government says it will not consider Secretary of State
Alexander M. Haig Jr.'s terms for improved relations
unless the United States promises not to attack
Nicaragua.
"One cannot negotiate with a pistol on the chest," Interior Minister Tomas Borge said Wednesday. "One
cannot negotiate when they are threatening us."
Borge was responding to Haig's conditions Monday
for restoring U.S. aid to the leftist regime and curbing
anti-Sandinista exiles training in the United States. First,
said Haig, the Nicaraguan government must "get out of
El Salvador," not acquire heavy offensive weapons and
limit foreign military advisers.
"To negotiate there must be a clear guarantee that the
United States is not going to attack our country," said
Borge, speaking at the departure of North Korean Prime
Minister Li Jong-ok for Cuba after a three-day visit.
The Reagan administration has accused the Sandinistas of supplying weapons and advisers to leftist insurgents in El Salvador. Washington has also claimed
Nicaragua's military strength is growing beyond its
defense needs.
Reagan Asks for Support
WASHINGTON, D.C. (AP) President Reagan asked
big business Thursday to fall back in line witli his
economic program, while his budget director and the
chairman of the Federal Reserve warned that prolonged
feuding over the 1983 budget could jeopardize prospects
for recovery.
"What we need now," Reagan told the National
Association of Manufacturers, "is not last-minute haggling of displays of blatant self interest. We need the
support that only America's businessmen can give us."
Reagan has been stung recently be calls from Congress and Wall street for a scaledown of his three-year
tax cut and major reductions in a 1983 deficit approaching $100 billion. Moreover, an American Stock
Exchange poll released Wednesday showed that only 41
percent of the nation's brokers "strongly approve" of
his policies, compared with 67 percent a year ago.
Budget Director David A. Stockman and Federal
Reserve Chairman Paul A. Volckcr told the same group
that a political deadlock over the budget could jeopardize prospects for lower interest rates and a springtime
recovery.
But Stockman and Volcker held out hope for a speedy
bi-partisan congressional and administration compromise on a plan for reducing the projected record
deficit. Several economists blame the government's red
ink for keeping Interest rates high.
Stockman gave no indication that Reagan would be
willing to back off on the key elements that have created
the budget legjam — his three-year personal tax cuts, his
record Pentagon budget and his pledge to leave Social
Securitv intact.
Senator Blames Cuba
WASHINGTON, D.C- (AP) A key Republican senator
says he is "absolutely convinced" Nicaragua and Cuba
are controlling leftist guerrillas in El Salvador, but that
the Reagan administration should reveal more evidence
to gamer public support for its Central American
policy.
Sen. Robert Kasten of Wisconsin made his comments
Wednesday as a Senate subcommittee began hearings on
President Reagan's proposal to send $350 million in
emergency aid to the Caribbean Basin, including {128
million to El Salvador.
The hearings got under way just hours after the president's aid package was sent to Congress. Besides
emergency money, the proposal calls for a 12-year
period of duty-free entry into this country for virtually
all Caribbean exports and tax incentives to encourage
U.S. private investment in the region.
The trade subcommittee of the House Ways and
Means Committee called a hearing for today on the
economic aid package.
Kasten, chairman of the Senate Appropriations subcommittee on foreign operations, said he had no doubt
about outside involvement in El Salvador's insurgency,
"1 am absolutely convinced of Cuban and Nicaraguan
support and control of terrorist guerrillas in El
Salvador," Kasten told Thomas O. Endcrs, assistant
secretary of state for inter-American affairs.
"But you have got to bring the information out into
public view and let the people of this country know what
is going o n , " he said. The administration should move
to counter "what is clearly a tide in American public
opinion' against support of El Salvador's civilianmilitary junta, he said.

Games May Pay State
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) Video games, the pinball
' machines of the 1980s, should be taxed and the revenue
used to keep youths out of arcades and in school, a key
New York state legislator says.
Assemblyman Leonard Stavisky, D-Queens, announced Wednesday that he's introducing legislation,
imposing a $50 yearly fee on electronic video games .being operated in the state outside of New York City.
In the city, which already imposes a $50 fee on the
games, the levy would be raised to $100 a year under the
bill, Stavisky said.
The money raised, which the assemblyman says could
reach $1 million annually, would be used to pay for hiring truant officers and for other school attendance promotion programs.
"This burgeoning industry has created an addictive,
coin-gobbling network throughout the state without
socially useful benefits to the public," he said.
"The money raised from this industry would defray
the hiring of attendance teachers to identify youngsters
who are leaving school early or who are spending inordinate amounts of time and their parents' money on
these mesmerizing games," added Stavisky.
The college professor-legislator said that distributors
who lease the games would be slapped with the fee. In
cases where a store or an arcade owns the games
outright, they would have to come up with the money.
Budget Vote Threatened
WASHINGTON, D.C. (AP) Faced with president
Reagan's continued intransigence on key elements of his
1983 budget, the Democratic chairman of the House
Budget Committee is threatening to force a potentially
embarrassing vote on the unpopular spending plan.
"I've explored every possibility of trying to break this
legjam and this is the only one that I can see as of new
that has a realistic chance of moving us forward," said
Rep. James R. Jones of Oklahoma.
Jones, who presented the proposal to a closed meeting
of House Democrats Wednesday, said later that
"nobody spoke against it" during the session.
Top House leaders appeared to withhold their full
support for the plan, but Jones indicated he expected
the leadership would support the move after he has had
a chance to explain it in more detail.
"I'd hate to go that route, to tell you the truth,"
House Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill Jr. (D-Mass) said.
"What arc we going to do to for except to embarrass the '
president?"
But a Democratic leadership aide said that while
O'Neill "has some doubts" about the plan, "I know his
mind to be open" on the idea. Even Reagan's congressional allies concede that his big-deficjt budget as submitted last month could not win approval in cither
House or Congress. Thus, forcing a vote now would
result in defeat and embarrassment for the president.
Traffic Controllers Edgy
WASHINGTON, D.C. (AP) Despite the upheaval caused by the air traffic controllers strike, the government,
has done little to correct the management problems that
led to the walkout, according lo a special task force.
A panel of management experts concluded Wednesday that morale among working controllers is low, strife
between management and controllers persists, and many
of the factors that led to last summer's walkout are
resurfacing.
"Most factors that had caused problems in the past
reasserting themselves and the FAA seems headed
toward more, people-related problems in the future,"
said the 145-page report of FAA management procedures.
FAA Administrator J. Lynn Helms, testifying at
hearings into air safety, acknowledged that morale
among some controllers is low and promised to implement a number of recommendations from the task
force.
But Helms told the House subcommittee the airways
arc safe and that the effort to rebuild the air traffic conroller corps is ahead of schedule. He said there are about
9,600 controllers handling traffic now and that b.' October, airlines will be able to fly about 90 percent of
their normal flights.
The congressional hearings were to resume today with
testimony from the National Transportation Safety
Board, which several months ago concluded that safety
has not been impaired by the strike and subsequent firing of 11,500 controllers.

of thousands of Salvadorans but the status of several
thousand Poles who have found temporary refuge in
America. Also hanging in the balance is the international image of a humanitarian United States.
As it is, there is almost no legal refuge for Salvadorans
in the United States. In the 12 months ended last Sept.
30, the Immigration and Naturalization Service caught
15,903 Salvadorans without proper papers. Only two
were granted political asylum.
The overwhelming majority are deported, at a rate of
about 1,000 per month. The United states pays $333.65
per person lo fly them back lo their homeland, where an
estimated 30,000 people have been killed in recent years
in civil strife.
Despite INS efforts, there is a growing, underground
community of Salvadorans who have slipped over the
border and settled in the Latino communities of California, Texas, New York and Washington. The Central
American Refugee Center in Washington estimates that
500,000 Salvadorans are living in the United States illegally.

the phenomenon seem to be "sixties

only music recorded tcn-to-I5 years

A scanning of college newspapers
nationwide shows a continuing

Exam Schedule Policy Clarified
Syllabi to Note Outside Tests
By KIM GUY
As of this semester, professors
scheduling exams outside of arranged class meetings must inform their
students within the first week of
classes, according to Associate
Dean of Undergraduate Studies
Leonard Lapinski.
"This is nol really a new policy,

Rutgers University historian Warren Susman forgets an awful night
in December, 1980. It was the night
John Lenno'n was killed.
"By the next morning," he
recalled, "there wasn't a blank wall
left on campus. Someone had gone
around and written 'Lennon Lives'
on every building."
"It is the first thing I've seen that
actually moved this generation, and
brought them together. There were
genuine tears. They couldn't hold
back tlffcir emotions."
Susman, like many others,
wondered why. The Beatles, a produel of a different era, had split up
in 1970, when most of the students
now on campuses were small
children. Susman wondered ir the
explanation wasn't that students of
today were growing up withoul a
culture of their own.
They "jusl don'l have the heroes
that the students of the sixties did.
They lack thai charismatic relationship with leaders that students used
to have."
The professorial buzzwords for
students' interest to a nostalgia for
the era and even an anger that its
persistent influence may retard the
development of a peculiar culture

for example, reports a fed-up student telling her, "You guys had all
the easy issues. It's harder on us."
"Current students don't really
understand why there was so much
turmoil then," Penn State's Murray
observed. "They're not very sympathetic to their older brothers and
sisters who still 'haven't found
themselves.' The students now are
deadly serious. There's very little
frivolity, and they're motivated to
gel ahead as fast as possible."
Jack Nachbar, a professor of
popular culture at Bowling Green
State University, added, "The sixties idea of sitting around all day
and getting high just makes no
sense to these kids. The confidence
In middle class affluence as a given
just no longer exists."
Because the 1960s and 1980s arc
so different politically and
economically, teachers have found
a cynicism among current students
about what their predecessors of the
sixties did and what they left
behind.
"What we have produced," said
Warren Susman, a historian at
Rutgers University, "is a new
generation that is bright, interested
in the past, but with an absolute
belief that nothing they do can
make a difference."
At the same time, Susman added,
"Students sense that (sixties
students) had a culture of their
own. At least the young had their
own experience. Students today
have a bewilderment that the
legends could really be like what
they've heard. They don't have that
sense of mystery, thnl sense of
adventure that the sixties students
had."
The professors have an especially
difficult time teaching about the
Vietnam war.

I
A few people who are interested in
throwing ROTC off campus have reservations when they consider the issue of
freedom of speech: although they would
like to see SUNYA rid of this tumor, they
feel that even a tumor, if it has the capability to speak, has the right to speak freely.
However, this concern is misplaced.
Freedom of speech is irrelevant.
The Constitution guarantees no one the
inalienable right to be a Professor of
Military Science at the State University ol
New York at Albany: it guarantees no one
the license to teach at all. Nor is it at question, when considering if a certain course of
study should be terminated, if we arc
depriving any students of a free choice;
nay, if anyone disagrees he docs not oppose
it on these grounds, he would argue that the
course of study is intellectually serious and
relevant to the present times. Freedom of
speech is denied to no one in a decision of
this type, license to teach is. As far as
anyone's freedom of speech goes, he can go
stand on a soap box at Washington Square
Park, exercise his freedom of speech to his
heart's content, and have pennies thrown at
him in the bargain.
•
Not only is freedom of speech irrelevant
to this issue, but, I must sorrowfully admit,
and apologize to you reader, so has been
this column. Let's get on to the more fundamental issue.
Civil rights are guaranteed to people, not
organizations. This is a result of a 1938
Supreme Court decision (Connecticut
General Insurance Co. v. Johnson) in
•"hich it was rulc'l thnt the reputation of
organizations is not a deprivation of civil
liberties (thus anti-trust legislation), nor are
organizations entitled to due process under
the law. As well, the checks and balances
system is a recognition that the government
has not rights, but powers; and the government itself is broken into three parts so as
to limit these powers. We therefore have
even less reason to protect the rights of
ROTC (read: Military), since ROTC has no
rights, only its members do. The problem,
though, is in discerning when we are curtailing an individual's civil rights and when
regulating the 'powers of an organization
When, it might be asked, are we denying
the military license to teach and when are
we. denying the Professor of Military
Science, an individual, that privilege.
The answer is obvious: if that individual
is a funtionary of the Military, in curtailing
his functions we are restraining the powers
of the Military, not him. To show whether
that individual is a functionary of the
Military, we need only show who it is that
pays him..
The Professor of Military Science is
clearly a functionary of the Military, so his
rights in this matter arc negligible; the important question is whether we should allow
a government organization extrinsic to the
university to leach In the university, an extremely, unconscionably, bad precedent in
itself, for the same logic that allows this
organization, the Military, to leach courses
in the university would allow the CIA, the
Stale Department, the FBI, and any other
governmental riff-raff with the ability to utter the words "national" and "security" in
alphabetical order.
Not A Gay Issue
I WANT YOU
Like It Or Leave It
To the Editor:
1 am writing in response to all of the letters which have recently been printed in the
ASP in opposition to the introduction of
ROTC on campus. All of these letters have
championed the cause of academic
freedom. Supposedly, the introduction of
non-humanistic courses such as those
taught by ROTC infringes on this freedom.
Personally, 1 do hot see any validity to this
claim. No one is forced to enroll in ROTC;
on the contrary, it is quite competitive and
only those with a real desire to be commissioned do get in. If you wish to ban ROTC
from campus you arc infringing other people's academic freedom. Just because you
do not favor the military or its teachings
does not rhean that I or anyone else agree
with you. I may wish to enroll in ROTC or I
may not; it is my choice and academic
freedom is the ability to make that choice.
Let us say that I do not like mathematics.
Since I don't want to take it myself, docs
this give me the right to infringe on others
by trying to ban its teaching on campus
And yes, this is a valid point, because just
as mathematics is an independent Held of
study, so is military science. Some like it
and some don't. This is a free country, and
I take that to mean that anyone can do or
study whatever they want to. If you don't
like math, don't take it. Likewise, if you
don't like ROTC, don't enroll; no one is
forcing you to.
— James A, Robertson
To the Editor:
I am an active member of four different
student groups on this campus. I am writing
this letter, however, not as a representative
of any of these groups, but as a student
concerned with human and civil rights. I
was disappointed to-see the ASP's headline
"Homosexuals Lose Senate Vote" for two
reasons.
First, it is misleading. It can be (and has
been) misinterpreted to mean that either 1)
homosexuals have lost the right to vote in
the Senate, or 2) homosexuals, as a group,
proposed a bill that was defeated. Neither
one of these is true.
My main reason for displeasure,
however, is that the article then presented
the ROTC question as a "gay" issue — but
it is not! It is a "civil rights" issue! A person doesn't have to be gay to oppose
discrimination on that basis. And the issue
here is discrimination versus nondiscrimination. This campus has a policy
that prohibits discrimination on the basis of
"sexual or affectional preference." Yet
ROTC is permitted to blatantly violate this
policy.
ROTC argues "it's the Army's policy,
not ours. You're only hurting yourselves
(referring to gays) by trying to kick us off
campus."
As a student, however, I feel that too
many people will be hurt by allowing ROTC
to remain on campus. This would not only
render useless all the time invested seeking a
non-discrimination policy, but would also
set a precedent that would recognize that
military, or any group that will supply
grants and scholarships, has the right to
pick and choose who is allowed to get an
education.
There are quite a few other perspectives
on the ROTC issue, and it is my hope that
both this University and the ASP will
recognize that when discrimination is condoned, everybody loses.

The Past Voices
To the Editor:
Given the recent controversy over ROTC
on campus, it is enlightening to examine
what some of the world's most eminent intellectuals, scholars, and cultural leaders
have had to say about its educalional value.
For example, on October 12, 1930, an appeal against conscription and the military
training of youth was issued publicly by
Jane Addams, John Dewey, Albert Eins"
tein, Sigmund Freud, Thomas Mann, Romain Rolland, Bcrtrand Russell, H.G.
Wells, and numerous other figures of their
intellectual distinction. II staled:
"We believe that everybody who sincerely wants peace should demand the abolition
of military training of youth and should
help abrogate the right of governments to
impose conscription upon their citizens.
Conscription places the individual entirely
at the mercy of military powers. It is a form
of slavery. . . Military training is the
education of the mind and body in the
technique of killing. It is education for war.
It is the perpetuation of the war mentality.
It thwarts the growth of man's will for
peace. The older generation commits a
grave crime against the younger generation
if in schools, universities, official and
private organizations, youth are educated,
often under the pretext of physical training,
in the science of war. . . Let the peoples of
all countries adopt as their goal: No more
militarization! No more
conscription!
Education for humanity and peace!"
To these sentiments, expressed more than
a half-century ago, I can only add: Amen!

Associate Professor of History
Teach Peace
To the Editor:
What is the Reserve Officers Training
Corps (ROTC)? Why is it on the SUNYA
campus? Docs it belong here? These are
questions of central importance to the ensuing debate over ROTC's presence on campus.
ROTC is a program of the U.S. Military.
Its purpose is to train college students for
careers as officers in the army.
The U.S. Army is a violent institution.
Like all armies, its primary function involves mass destruction and the taking of
human life. While the military may be a
necessary evil to be used as a last resort, this
does not change the fact that it is basically a
killing machine. As such it has no place on
the college campus.
The university, as an institution, is a
center of higher education and rational
thought. One of the purposes of higher
education is to teach people to use reason to
resolve conflicts via peaceful means. In contrast,.ROTC prepares students for careers
in an institution dedicated to achieving
goajs through violent means.
Presently, the superpowers possess
enough nuclear warheads to destroy all
human/life many times over. Given this
fact, war is no longer a viable solution to international problems. The world desperately needs an alternative.
The university is in a position to offer
such an alternative. Here, peaceful methods
of conflict resolution can be researched and
taught. Yet SUNYA has gone in just the opposite direction. Four years ago, a Peace
Studies department was eliminated. Last
year, a military studies program, in the
form of ROTC, was established.
This dangerous course must be reversed,
SUNYA should teach peace. Let the
military academies teach war, if it is to be
taught at all. The first crucial step in this
direction is to push ROTC off campus!

Coalition Against ROTC
Eyewitness Report
11) the Editor:
I am writing in response to a letter which
appeared in the (February 23 issue) ASP
regarding the Marine recruiters in the campus center.
First of all, I would point out that they
are not "recruiters", they are an Officer
Selection leant (and I emphasize the word
selection). Their purpose is not to come on
campus to proclaim military policies as the
author of that letter would like to believe.
Their mission is lo contact, inform and
screen those individuals who arc interested
in becoming Marine Officers.
Secondly, the author gives the impression
that the Marines in the campus center were
cither a) standing around broadcasting the
military's policy regarding homosexuals or
b) happened to be discussing this topic
when he was passing by and he decided to
investigate. Neither is the case. I know
because I was there.
I witnessed this individual patiently stand
at the Officer Selection team's table for
close to ten minutes while the Officer in
charge talked to a person who was interested in the Marine Officer Program.
After this young man departed, the author
of the letter in question approached the
table and immediately began asking questions about the military's policy regarding
gays. This individual and his friend were
there for close to fifteen minutes asking
questions and debating with the Officer
over this issue. During this time the Officer
was respectful, polite and treated him with
dignity. However, in his letter he gives the
impression he was dealt with in a coarse and
harsh manner.

I don't even know whom I have l o hide
from anymore. As It is, If I walk through
Humanlllles and glimpse an elbow patch on
a blazer or catch a whllf of pipe smoke, I dip
Info fhe nearest alcove. Sometimes I'm foo
late: " O h hello Professor. Why of course I
remember the assignment. In f a d . I was Just
on my way to your office to discuss It. Why
am I standing on the tollel seat? It's funny
you should ask. because. . ."
It's about this lime I usually qull the cat
and mouse game, and join thousands of
others In simply dropping the course Which
brings us to today's topic, about which I have
an idea that's so good, even / may read this
piece. Let's discuss quarter courses.
I base my thesis on the assumption that the great majority of quarter courses are taken out
of necessity, and not out of any desire on a student's part lo spend 3 hours, a day twice a
week discussing the literature of the Yucatan with a professor even less thrilled with having
lo share his master's thesis with a crowd of economics majors who've come 2 credits short
for the third straight semester. (This contention ol course does not include Dissident Russian
Literature nor H a.m. Bowling for Beginners, two of the most popular fourth quarter offerings.)
Quarter courses are taken not for content, but for credit hour, and are thereby selfdefeating. "But." you say. "are there not quarter courses that students might very well want
to take, or might have to take as requirements in a major?" Here I have to stop you. first lo
ask why you speak so formally, and secondly to remind you that it is just those students
who become hurt by fourth quartet classes swamped by fellow students gobbling credils like
so many Pac-men on a rampage, or Long Island girls on n diet (or writers filling a quota of
gralullous Par-man and Long Island jokes).
There is a way lo reconcile the quarter course problem, which both recognizes Ihe need
lor adding credits and the desire for students lo gel something mil of a class, thereby
avoiding Incidents like Ihe Kd Psych debacle of a few semesters bark. In which the university
threw open the enrollment to hundreds of students, forcing the Inslructoi to retaliate by
promising A's lo each and every one (call me a glutton for punishment, but I would have
sold my grandmother for a closed section card).
My plan calls (or courses offered in (here's Ihe idea) nnn-acadeinic subject areas, which
would award 1 or 2 credits In subjects like Homemnklng, First Aid, Bartending, CPR, Ails
and Cralls. Carpentry. Time Management. Coping Willi Stress, etcetera. Don't laugh, for
while on Ihe outside — I SAID NOT TO L A U G H If I have lo slop again someone's going to
be in big trouble. While on Ihe outside these seem trivial courses for the college student,
they have more inlinsir worth lo Ihe average computing major than does an upper level
Education course. Can the Administration not admit that most quarler courses leave no Impression on a vast number of students who swell their ranks? 1 think not. And can Ihey also
not admil thai a student would benefit more by fulfilling credit requirements while actually
learning something, which Is the aim of a university in Ihe first place (and can Ihey nol also
admit that they are as lost In a sea of negative clauses as I am?)?

attendant fears and worries have set up

usually attributed to spring fever. Spring
however Is not the cause of this present
malaise. Rather the uncertainties of ||fe
have thrust themselves forward Into our
spaces.
Laughter surrounds us as If it were a
painted on halo. Giving hope to otherwise
lonely and desperate souls. A haunting
spectre looms In the distance. The end to
all we have known now approaches. Is It
just that we have matured and recognize
now that death Is closer with each passing
breath? Or perhaps the Illusions ol youth
are now being traded over the counter lor
the "straight jackets" and "ties" of
adulthood?
photo perspective by Wilt Yitrman
Jonathan Miles
The spectre of-discrlmlnation has once
again reared its ugly head here at SUNYA;
concerned students are grappling with the
burning Issue of the ROTC's presence on
campus.
A number of students feel that the
presence of this army officer's training
program on campus violates the
University's non-dlscrlmlnation policy.
While the courses offered here are open to
anyone, an actual commission In any
branch of the military Is denied to a selfproclaimed homosexual.
This, clearly, is discriminatory. But Is
discrimination necessarily a dirty word?
There are two kinds of discrimination:
arbitrary discrimination and performancebased discrimination. Arbitrary
discrimination is based solely on individual
prejudice, has no rational Justificaton, and
is Indefensible. Racial bigotry Is a common
example of this. Our University policy
forbids this, but only this kind of
discrimination. To quote, what is forbidden
In discrimination "based on nonperformance criteria."
So the university implicitly accepts
discrimination which is based on
performance criteria. Is it wrong for an art
critic to be discriminating? Is It wrong for
our University's admissions committee to
be discriminating? Clearly not, because this
discrimination is not arbitrary or prejudicial;
il is solely rational judgement designed to
maintain some level of quality.
That Is why the admissions standards of
the ROTC do not violate the University's
non-discrimination policy. Military policymakers are not hopeless homophobics,
and while they may hold personal opinions
of homosexuality they are not brazen
enough to set them down as policy. Their
interest, from their point of view, in being
discriminating is solely performance-based.
Why. then, do these policy-makers see
homosexuality in the ranks as reducing the
quality of the armed forces? Military
idealogy calls for the formation of a group
of diverse individuals Into the single entity
of a fighting unit. To accomplish this
requires a closely regimented life and an
i inviolable structure of obedience and
loyally to commanding officers. The
individual is stripped of his humanness,
Identity, and freedoms: he submerges his
self into the whole. Only on leave or on a
weekend pass does the individual explode
in an orgy of self-expression, it isn't a
pretty picture, but It's necessary if there is
to be a military.
To openly Introduce homosexuality into
the same-sex. 24-hour living and working
conditions in the military woud destroy the
premise underlying all military units. Any
kind of sexuality, with its accompanying
diversion and self-expression. Is an
anthema upon military authority. Some
would argue that homosexuals are not
necessarily promiscuous and homosexuality
would not be open or widespread, first
hand accounts from Inside the military tell
me otherwise.
There are other reasons not to have the
military on campus; there are also reasons
why one may not wish lo encourage
homosexuality. None of them are Involved
In the context of the current ROTC debate
The controversy should be put the r « t
until someone comes up with viable
grounds for Intelligent protest.CJ
Keeping Up
1 With Bethany
"Walt! thai was sixty-eight cents!"
"Sixly-nlne. Look, It says so."
"It's on sale for sixty-eight!"
"Price check!" Jesus, how can something
be on sale for one cent less? "Would you
please check the price on this? Thank y o u . "
"I'm sure the sign said sixty-eight."
"Okay, we're getting it checked." In her
mind, she was reaching across and placing
her hands around the old lady's neck,
squeezing, squeezing . . .
No matter; the crowd still plays to the1
stage that we are In. We are youth, we are
the future. The world Is soon to be ours.
Still for now It (the world) belongs to those
who have come before us.
Out of this confusion one would
normally expect some sort of hero or
villain (for that matter) to arise. No such
distraction, however, appears likely to
emerge. The heroes have all been shol or
betrayed. The villains seem too content lo
show themselves.
The messlah Isn't likely to come back
today or tomorrow. So whatever transpires
will be a reflection of the great mass of
normal, average everyday people, Nol the
sort of stuff great epic novels or movies re
made of. Nevertheless It Is the "boat" we
find ourselves In.

Overlooking Death Valley, California
A
yellow, unmarked school bus pulls
Into a small mining town in eastern
Pennsylvania. It Is a strange sight to
the townspeople and sticks out In contrast to
the gray surroundings. A roof rack on the
bus contains assorted backpacks, tents and
water jugs. Inside, the last few rows of seats
have been replaced by coolers and food
boxes. Extra shelves on the celling and sides
contain sleeping bags, ensollte pads, day
packs and various other Items. Out of the
bus come twenty people of various
backgrounds, and ages ranging from 15 to
30 They are high school, college and
graduate students. Their goal here Is to study
anthropology and history from a primary
source; old miners and townspeople of this
place. Somehow these courses become
more interesting when talking directly with
the people instead of readng a textbook In a
stuffy classroom. This is a typical "class" for
the Audubon Expedition Institute (AEI). This
fully accredited school travels around the
country using the people and places of
America as teachers. For me it is graduate
school.
In our trauels through eastern Pennsylvania we observed the exploitation of a
natural resource. This Is of course coal country. The slow dangerous method of deep pit
mining has been replaced by strip mining. I
had read and seen pictures of this but was
unprepared for the mass destruction of the
land that we saw. The landscape on our
drive through this area was barren and
moon-like. Some fast growing species of
trees like birch and aspen had grown in. In a
half hearted attempt at reclamation some
trees were planted but It was a sad and
depressing replacement for a forest. The
strip mine we visited was closed so we saw
only their results. A monstrous shovel driven
by one man Is used to remove the trees, topsoil and rock collectively termed the "overburden." Then digging down further, the
coal Is reached and scooped out into trucks.
The energy expended in removing the coal
makes it hard to believe it can be profitable. It
Is painful to see this scarring of the Earth,
especially when one realizes that It Is being
done for you and I. All those things we need
that run on electricity or were formed by
electricity cause that shovel to dig deeper
and wider. I wonder how much coal blow
dryers use up each day?
We got a chance to talk with local old
timers about the mines and what the town
was like years ago. Their eyes light up when
talking about the good old days, when the
town was booming and everyone worked in
the mines. Most of these men now suffer
from black lung to various degrees.' They
have given their lives to the mines to provide
cheap energy for a growing nation. Their
coughing bodies are' ahblbgous to the su'r- '

rounding hills. Both are waste products of
the coal Industry. When asked about how
their town looked years ago, they smile and
talk of flowers and trees and picking blueberries In the hills. It's hard to believe the way
people accept the destruction of the natural
world around them. But then again this is
not much different from the development
that has occured everywhere at the cost of
the locrl forest and wildlife.
After receiving my BS in Biology from
SUNYA I started seriously thinking about
what to do the rest ol my life, as most seniors
will do from time to time, f had already ruled
out the obvious choices of medical, dental
and law school and wasn't too excited about
graduate school. My love of the outdoors
and longing to "go west" ted me to a Job with
the Forest Service In Washington Slate.
Here I experienced some of the most
awesome mountains, forests and coastline in
the country. I also learned what a "clearcut"
was and that our demand for paper and
wood could cause a mountain ridge to look
like a patchwork quilt. This demand will use
up all of the old growth, virgin timber, In the
next twenty years. While In Washington I
found out about AEI and started reading information about It, though not seriously considering It as a possible option for me. My Job
In Washington ended and I headed back east
and landed a Job as a lab technician in cancer
"I had read and

Students observe strip miners at work
research. Although it was a somewhat Interesting Job I found I needed to be outdoors
and to have more contact with people. I
thought about education as a career but not
In a traditional classroom setting. I felt there
must be a better way than that. 1 began to see
that AEI offered what I was looking for In
terms of education and outdoor experience.
After climbing up to the top of a ridge in
Shenandoah National Park we could clearly
see the park boundary. There was a distinct
•line on one side of which were patches of
farm land and on the other side was forest.
We seemed to be on an island. Our National
Parks provide a good example of this country's views on nature. If one takes a look at
the map of the United States one has to look
hard to find the National Parks and other
preserved lands. They are In effect tiny
Islands surrounded by development. The
Reagan administration, featuring James
Watt, would now like to see some of these
types of boundaries reduced even more.
Originally, National Parks were formed In
areas that could be used for nothing else. In
other words, they were considered waste
lands. Places like Olympic, Yellowstone and
Grand Canyon National Parks were useless
as farmland or pastureland, so why not
make parks out of them? Now that certain
valuable resources have been found or are
now economical to extract, these protected
areas might be "put to better use." When
questioned about the present administration,
rangers at Acadia National Park had no comment. They were not allowed to speak on
such eonfrouers/a/ subjects as development,
air and water pollution for fear of losing their
jobs. This was Interesting since an oil refinery
was recently constructed nearby. Also this
area Is greatly affected by acid rain formed by
coal burners In the Ohio valley and car exhaust of the whole northeast. What these
' rangers were told In essence luas that II was
not their job to Inform the public of dangers
to our parks.
The graduate program on AEI is for people who are concerned With the way our
natural world Is being exploited and who
want to do something about It. The first step
to changing this Is to educate people and
make them aware of what Is really happening to our world. The program leads to a
M.S. In Environmental Education. In participating with high school and college
students on the expedition one gets experience both as a student and, In a sense, as
a teacher. Communication skills are of prime
Importance to any career but especially In
education. This is also Important on the expedition. Living In close contact with twenty
people on a bus for nine months makes constant and open communication essential
Group meetings are frequent and can be
called by anyone at almost anytime when a
problem arises. Since we don't have exams,
communication becomes important in
evaluating a student's work In specldc
.courses. All group decisions are by consensus so that everyone can express their feelings on every Issue. When a person falls in
participate In these decisions, problems arise
since, as In all expeditions, Its success
depends on every Individual.
To most people Florida Is the sunshine
state. It Is a uacationland and a place to retire
to. There are also a few areas oj
undeveloped habitats that are unique and
beautiful. The development of Florida has
been more blatantly destructive than most
places In the country. The fast-buck ethic litis
predominated, especially in the past twenty
years. The most amazing and saddest story
of Florida is the death of the Everglades. This
"river of grass" originally flowed from Lake
Okeechobee south to the tip of Florida as a
60-70 mile wide shallow river. In 1927,
Lake Okeechobee was diked and flood
waters were drained off Into the ocean. Tin'
life blood of the Everglades was shut off. In
1947, when It was made a National Park,
water was guaranteed through a system of
canals. The supply of water to the everglades
Is now controlled by man. The water is
shared with the sugar cane fields, tomato
and other agriculture and also the ever grow
ing city of Miami. The water often comes at
the wrong times, In the wrong amounts or
not at all despite the natural wet-dry cycle of
the Everglades. One of the most spectacular
sights of the Everglades Is the bird life. Large
colorful birds can be seen from the road In
great numbers. It Is hard to imagine the
decline In bird life that has occurred. One
hundred years ago an estimated 2,4 million
wading birds occupied the Everglades. Now
there are 40 thousand, half of which are cattle egrets, an Introduced species. The
Everglades are unique to the world. There Is
nothing else like them anywhere. Yet they
will be dead within fifty years If drastic actions
are not taken. Unrelalble water supplies and
introduced plant species are the greatest
threats. The Everglades park rangers and
naturalists are the most outspoken In the
Park Service, but they are still very restricted
In Informing the public about these Issues.
Strict orders from Washington forbid park
employees, from talking about the administration or the future of the Everglades.
While government bureaucrats decide the
fate of. the Everglades and ever expanding
south Florida development consumes the
limited water supply, another wood stork
fails to breed and dies because she can't find
enough food to live on.
One of the goals of AEI Is to Increase the
awareness of people to the natural world and
to alter lifestyles so as to lower ones Impact
on nature. AEI guides offer alternatives to
modern high impact living and actually live
this way at their homes In Lubec, ME. By llv-
replaced by synthetic or animal scents. Our
clothing becomes non-functional signs of
status, and so what If that Includes the fur of
dead animals? We are even encouraged to
lose touch with our feelings and emotions
and Instead spaceout on drugs, drink,
•novles and TV. This all adds to alienation of
the self and therefore nature. A change of attitudes and lifestyle are needed to save what
is left of this world. This Is what I see as the
task of environmental educators and this Is
part of what AEI Is trying to accomplish. We
must take a hard look at what effect our actions have on our environment. Do we really
need our homes over-heated with fossil fuels
torn from the Earth? Do we need all that
alcohol, stereos, records, TV's and drugs for
external stimulation or could we entertain
ourselves with singing and dance? Is a
shower every morning necessary or can we
live Just as well on one every week? These
are Just a few aspects of our culture that
degrade ourselves and the natural world.
Folklore, History and Anthropology. Things
begin to fit together and make sense this
way. It Is Interesting to note the Native
Americans' views on education. Their
education came from thejr elders and from
the environment surrounding them. Thus

Nature Is always on the defensive in environmental battles. It can win only temporarily for there are always more bulldozers
waiting on the sidelines run by men with visions of gold. We find prejudice against
nature to be widespread and in fact ingrained
in peoples lives. Modern man has evolved
further and further from the natural world to
the point where he doesn't even see himself
as a part of It. The wilderness Is something to
be exploited for economic gain, period.
These are the exact reasons why white man
first came: to seek gold and other riches,
destroying anything and anyone in their
way. Nothing has changed. Land Is analyzed
for its possible uses, (or what good Is a
resource that can't be put to use? Priorities
are placed on production of physical comforts to separate us as much as possible from
the fierce world of nature. The average
amerlcan spends 95 percent of his time Indoors. It is no wonder that people are
alienated from the natural world and even
forget they are animals. As such we are
dependant on nature for life giving food,
water and air. Contrary to popular belief,
water does not come from the faucet, food
does not come from the supermarket and
clean air Is not unlimited. Our cities are vast
networks with webs leading all over the

wheat from the midwest. This prejudice

while canoeing down Rock Springs' Run in
Florida sum up some of my feelings and
values:
Silently, I skim the surface of the river in
my canoe. 1 strain my senses for clues of the
presence of great blue heron, or alligator or
white tailed deer. Every bend in the river is
an exciting and new experience. The river
bank is a lush forest unscarred by humanity
except for occasional beer cans. In recent
years the numerous canoes and motor boats
have had visible effects. Logging in this area
has deslroyed the vasl stands of Bald
Cypress and hence the Ivory billed
woodpecker is extinct.
I wonder what the surrounding people of
this area feel about the river? Have they ever
even floated leisurely down It? Or is II only a
breeding ground for bucjs 'gators and other
pests? Or maybe it could be used as a centerpiece for a new condominium complex.

that tile Reed shown us in those particular
albums, while the most popular of what he's

album since the days of the Velvet

he's living for the moment. It can't be analyzed, merely appreciated. Lou Reed Is an attitude and that's the beauty. What sets him
apart Is that no one can take a stance quite
like.him. Who else calls the president of his
record company a "toefucker" when he
knows he's in the audience. He calls It like he
sees It and gives a great description of his
perception.
Joe Trelliri
The Brooklyn born Reed started his career
with Andy Warhol's Velvet Underground,
perhaps one of musics most Influential
bands. I n the late 60's/earlyl 70's, rock
began t o expand In It's acceptance as an artistic and politically influential medium. The
Velvets took much ol the growjng pretense
out and put Immediacy back In. While the
Jefferson Airplane was sayingl "It doesn't
mean shit to a tree." Reed and the Velvets
said nothing means shit to a heroin addict.
They were1 of the streets of New York and
explained life In no uncertain terms.
After a period of Indecision following an
unsuccessful first L P , Reed issued
Transformer, the album that thrust him Into
FM superstardom and paved the way for his
checkered Career. Aside from Transjormer
and the recording of the following two with
Steve Hunter, Reed has never had a hit or
overly successful album, nor done much to
bolster his one-time "superstar" image.
Reed has always done what he wanted to
do, and as such paid the price: years of having his albujms virtually ignored by commercial radio.-- Y o u see. Reed really Is an
Average Guy. as he states In The Blue Mask.
He" never could understand why he was
treated differently than anybody else. He
plays anything but a slick guitar, talks

shit." The fact that he's "just an average guy"
makes him all the better. He could be any of
us standing In front of an audience saying
what he feels and perceives.
When he sings "Heroin" you know what
he's talking about, because you're there,
you're in it, addict or not. Rock 'n roll has
always been Immediacy, living on the edge
Where Reed got Into trouble over the
years was In his personal problems and drugruined eyesight. While his albums had spots
of greatness his overall vision of life was
muddled with drugs and a gay lifestyle that,
for him, just shook things out of proportion.
Stuck In this period of confusion, Reed's
albums were just that, until his wife Sylvia
came along. His first album, under her In
fluence, was Groui/ng Up In Public, an apt title for an LP which dealt In great detail with
the turmoil of the past 12 years, when he
was trying to mature. The songs, oddly
enough, written with Reed's gay lover start
to unravel the psychological mysteries of his
life.
The Blue Mask takes It one step further.
While his perceptions of himself were clear In
Grouting Up In Public, The Blue Mask shows
his perceptions of life. While "Waves of
Fear" are " . . .causing him to be afraid of
his own smell. . . " there Is another side of
Reed that emerges for the first time. He
knows what happened In the past, but Is
more concerned about correcting the future.
In Public L o u composed a witty salute to
alcohol called "The Power of Positive Drinking," The Blue Mask, however, contains a
sequel, entitled "Underneath the Bottle,"
focusing In on past mistakes In no uncertain
terms: "Ooh wee, look at me, looking for
some sympathy. It's the same old story, of a
man and his search for glory, and he found it
underneath the bottle.'.' After much description he finally emerges with " . . .1 lost my
pride and It's hiding underneath the
bottle. . ." Another change In Reed was
thai he cast aside his gay lifestyle with a
vengeance, demonstrated in "Women."
"Heavenly Arms" is a touching, flowing anthem (whose beauty is slightly obscured by
raw vocals), dedicated to Sylvia, that keys
on the line, "only a woman can love a man."
Musically, there Is only one overdub on
the LP and the rest Is done "live." Reed's
guitar playing has certainly Improved and
he's joined by Robert Quine (Raybeats axeman and one of the best) for a well structured, basically simple musical LP. Most
songs are softer than we've come to expect,
with the noticeable exceptions of "The Blue
Mask" and "Waves of Fear," whose violent
and panic stricken lyrical content Is .veil
represented by vicious, angry and violent
guitar. The only song with real commercial
potential is "Average G u y " a whimsical,
bouncy number.
No song more than "My House" expresses
the contentment he's found, however, In
which the once bad Brooklyn Boy says, "I've
got such a lucky life, my writing, my motorcycle and my wife." If Reed can say that It
must mean there Is hope for all of us.
Reed's still a rock 'n roller — he's still living
for the moment. He's just enjoying them
more nowadays. Thanks Sylvia.

characterized by strings a n d choral

"Maid of Orleans." Is less artistic. Both attest
to a versatility that occasionally rises above
the disappointing repetltlveness of Orchestral

one the impression that maybe the choral

he excerclses his wiles first on his wife's
younger sister, and later. . .well, by the end
of the play, his promise "I'll make you happy" has Instigated a family affair.
Rice's performance is a comic tour de
force, especially In the breakfast scene of the
first act (the play draws Its title and humor
from four very harried mealtimes). Mocking,
cajoling, badgering, and reading the minds
of the brother- and slster-ln-laws, It's a
hilarious monologue which may have leapt

In fact, much of Michael Hume's direction
seems to owe, Intentionally or not, a debt to
the veddy English pacing of Fawlty and other
British sitcoms. While the script remains
sharp and sophisticated, the British sensibility allows for slapstick, pratfalls, outrageous
puns, and preposterous turns of plot.
The rest of the cast carries this off with
aplomb (If you can ignore the sometimes erratic British accents, particularly the overripe Scottish brogue of Richard Zobel). Mary

One band which epitomized this sound
was The Beat. Their first album featured a
few likeable songs which could be admired
for their tempo and fullness of production.
The Beat is now called Paul Collins' Beat
and their new album The Kids Are the Same
fits right Into this pop mold. As a whole, It
falls a bit below The Beat's album In quality,
but If you're a lover of this type of music,
then this record will fit well in your collection
right next to that Go-Go's album.
Every song on the disc Is pop In Its leanest
form. The harmonies are smooth and
perfect. Guitar lends fit well wllhln their allotted slots. The rhythm guitar plucks and

ho ho.was, he said he was an "unofficial

iw story,. Spielberg did this for days, and
wentso.far as to commandeer a parkig space!and an empty oflice. Someone ,

The story of how Spielberg goi Jaws is

Spielberg, for one reason or another, was In

Spielberg Is one of Ihe best working directors in the world right now. regardless of the

popular Is that they're exuberant films, obviously made by someone that enjoys what

I also notice this person has a lovely way
of twisting information to suit his needs.
The individual he refers to as being rejected
even though he was six feet tall, blond and
looking like " h e belonged" was not rejected because he was gay as he leads us t o
believe. He was rejected after he got to
training because he didn't possess other
qualities required o f a Marine Officer such
as leadership ability.
He also states that " g a y " was equated
with criminal records, drug dependency and
low intelligence. Again he misconstrues the
facts to support his position. These
characteristics arc all simply disqualifications for military service and in no way imply that a homosexual is a criminal, drug user
or unintelligent as he seems to suggest.

The Right Direction
To the Editor:
Congratulations to the Albany Student
Press for refusing to run ROTC advertisements on " m o r a l " grounds: because
ROTC and the armed forces in general
discriminate against homosexuals. 1 was
surprised and gladdened by the news —
such courage and outspokenness is far too
rare these days.
What separates a good Intellectual
climate from a poor one is only the degree
ID which questioning is promoted in each.
As far as ROTC does not encourage questioning, and'detracts from goals o f the'
university, is as far as it should be thrown
from Ihc university.

Minnesota Upset
By Louisville
In Semifinals
BIRMINGHAM, Alabama (AP)
Derek Smith and Lancaster Gordon
led 20tli ranked Louisville on two
second-half scoring spurts, and the
Cardinals upset seventh-ranked
Minnesota 67-61 Thursday nlghl in
the Mideast Regional semifinals of
the NCAA tournament.
Twice, the undersized Cardinals
raced to a lead, the first time surrendering it to a tenacious Minnesota team, the second time refusing to yeild.
Louisville earned the right to
meel either Virginia or AlabamaBirmingham in the regional championship on Saturday, and the Cardianals earned it despite giving
away size and bulk to Minnesota.
Louisville's front-court players
yielded seven inches to Minnesota's
7-foot-3 Randy Brcuer, but the Cardinals countered with speed, jumping ability and a full court press that
hounded and harassed the Dig 10
champions into submission.
Gordon scored 23 points and
Smith had 17, all but five of those
in the second half and each and
every one of them coming when the
Cardinals needed them most.
Louisville led by one, .12-.!I, at the
half, and the Cardinals scored 13 of
the second-half's first 20 poinls to
lead 45-38 with 15:58 to play.
Smith started that run with an
alley oop and a steal and dunk,
scoring six points in all in the run
while Gordon added a pair of
baskets.
This time, however, the Cardinals could not make it stick. Minnesota ran olT six straight points
during a 5:15 stretch in which the
Cardinals were held scoreless, and
the Gophers trailed 45-44 at the
12:01 mark.
Trent Tucker had four poinls for
Minnesota in that stretch and 2 and
a half minutes later, a basket by
Gary Holmes of Minnesota tied the
score 48-48.
Louisville, 22-9, scored 11 of the
next 15 points in a 4:12 span, including six by Gordon and five by
Smith, to take a 7 point lead, 59-52,
with 4:36 left. The Cardinals,
NCAA Champions in 1980 and still
using four of the same players from
thai starting squad, stretched I he

Indeed, the Danes' efforts were
far from "bad." In addition to the
fact that senior Neal Ullman set a
new school record, the squad
abounded with personal best times.
Of course, co-captain Ullman
was the big news of the lourncy. A
time of 56.5 seconds in the 100-yard
backstroke eclipsed the old Albany
record by a half second, and gave
Ullman a third place in the race. In
addition this feat, the swimmer captured a third place in the 200-yard
backstroke (2:05.8), a sixth place in
the 200-yard individual medley
(2:05.5), and was part of three relay
teams which also fared well.

The Albany State men's varsity
swimming and diving team brought
home a seventh place finish from
the State University of New York
Athletic Conference Championships (SUNYACs) held at Geneseo.
Although they dropped considerably from their third place
standing of a year ago, the Danes
were far from being disappointed
with their 1982 outing.
The squad realized that the biggest flaw in their recent performance was not lack of quality, but
lack of quantity. "We just didn't
have the depth. We covered all the
events, but that's not enough in the
States. You really need more than
only one guy in each event," explained Albany coach Dulce Fernandez. "Also, it's not that we were
bad, it was just that the competition
was better this year."

As a result of his bountiful output, Ullman scored the most points
on the Albany squad." He was probably our most outstanding swimmer at the meet. Neal's swimming
was also a motivating factor for the
whole team," noted Fernandez.
"Overall, I was pretty happy
(about the SUNYACs)," reflected
Ullman. The senior added some
thoughts on his final season. "Being captain, it was really good to be

"We often compete against

but we just use what we can. The
team has worked hard, sacrificed
— running in the tunnels, which
was a key lo success In the men's
team, doing road work and weight
training. They deserved what they
got," said Albany women's track
coach Ron White.
What the team got for their training efforts were 13 new school
records and a very respectable
showing in the Eastern AIAW Division III Indoor Track and Field
Championship.
Albany finished twelfth out of 21
teams in this meet, which took place
on Murch 6 and 7 at Bates college.

Danes' Second Place in ECACs Ends Season

Hamilton Wins in Final
By LARRY KAHN

selected to play in the NCAA Division III basketball tournament for
the first lime in four years, finished
second in the F.C'AC Upslatc New
York tournament held at Hamilton
College on March 6 and 7. Albany

Bradley's Beef
Each March, the NCAA has Ihc unenviable task of coming up
a 48 team field for their month long extravaganza known as the Division I basketball championship. Twcniy-cighl of these bids are
automatic, coming from either the posl-season conference tournament
or, if there is no tournament, the regular season champion, the rest of
the 48 bids are at-large bids; Ihcy are open to the best of the remaining
teams. Naturally, then, there is a good deal of complaining when the
bids arc announced, and we sec which teams will compete for the national title, and which teams will compete for the NIT title. This
season, one learn in particular has a legitimate gripe for not being included in the NCAA.
Despite the presence of 1981 NIT champ Tulsa, and national power
Wichita Slate, the Bradley Braves won the regular season title in the
Missouri Valley conference this season. Coached by Dick Versace,
Bradley compiled a ?0-9 regular season mark, a record that included
1J road wins. They were knocked out of Ihc conference tournament by
Illinois Stale, 55-50, in double overtime, in the semi-finals, but Ihc
Braves still expected an N( A A hid. since no M VC" champion had been
denied one in the long history of^hc league. Their losses included a
total often overtime periods, and close losses against Wichita and San
Francisco. They also bcal Wichita once, won ihc only matchup of the
season against Tulsa and, on the eastern swing, defeated St. Francis
(PA) by 31, Pcnn Stale by 17, and St. Joseph's by 13. Yet, when the
bids were announced, Bradley didn't have a dale for Ihc big dance,
and cries of foul were heard from Peoria. The coach was furious thai
Ihc MVC had one team out of 48, whole the Big East, a fairly strong
but relatively new conference, had four. Was ii coincidence that Ihc
commissioner of ihc P.iu East was chairman of Ihc selection committee? Let's check Ihc facts.
Of the four Big East learns thai made the NCAA, certainly
Georgetown and Villanova deserve bids without question. St. John's
also won 20 games this season, won Ihc Holiday Festival al Madison
Square Garden, and played a good schedule. The fourth team from
the Big East is Boston College, a team that has done very well in the
lournamenl thus far, healing San Francisco and DePaul, bolh of
whom were favored to heal the Eagles. During ihc regular season,
Boston College sported an 18-8 record, then split two games in the Big
Easl tournament for a 19-9 tally. Included in those 19 wins however,
are conquests of such national powers as Bentley, Stonchill, Brown,
New Hampshire, Merrimack and Si. Ansclm's. Four of these schools
aren't even Division I, while Brown was 5-21 and UNH 8-16. Despite
ihc Eagles' fine lournamenl performance, it is apparent that their
schedule did not merit them receiving an NCAA bid. The commissioner, however, is not to blame.
The problem with the NCAA selection process is thai there arc far
loo many automatic bids. Teams like Robert Morris and North
Carolina A&T just do not belong in Ihc tournament, especially at Ihc
expense of learns like Bradley and lona. The solution? Why nol make
il an open 48-leam lournamenl? This way, we could come as close as
possible lo having the best 48 teams, which is what the national championships arc all aboul. If il were done this way, Boston College would
still be in the field, bin Ihc undeserving learns such as Robcrl Morris
wouldn't be.
The problem, then, is nol thai the Big Easl commissioner is favoring
his schools, because he's nol. The problem is lhal there is loo lit tic
space left over for runner-up learns in each conference, and making
the tournament totally invitalional would solve thai.
As a sidelight, Bradley played eastern teams in their first two NIT
appearances last week. They dcfcalcd American, 76-65, and then
travelled to Syracuse and soundly defeated the Big East's Orangemen,
97-84.
If Bradley has a gripe, how aboul Tcxas-EI Paso? AT 20-8, Ihcy
were marginal for the NCAA, but certainly a shoe-in for the NIT, al
least thai is what Ihcy thought. For Ihc Miners, only a sad end to ihc
season though, as the NIT committee loaded up with seven eastern
teams, all of whom have been eliminated already, while Texas A&M,
•*• iCaM t J T E P b c i " bv 20, is alive in the NIT's final eight,
three years ago. The last time
Albany played in Ihc ECACs was in
1978. They won lhal lournamenl,
defeating Hamilton in overtime,
101-95.
This year's version of the ECAC
tourney pitted the Danes agalnsl
Iwo teams Ihcy played during ihc
regular season. Bolh earlier matchups were romps. Hamillon crushed Albany 76-50 for their only
defeat in Universily Gym this
season. Oswego was a victim of the
Danes' home domination, losing
87-68.
Although the end results were

games certainly were not. Bolh

in the second half.

Trackmen Third in Union Meet
By MARC SCHWARZ
The Albany Stale men's indoor
track team set several individual
and team records en route lo a third
place finish at the Union Invitational Track Meet last Saturday.
Coach Bob Munsey was very
happy wiih the team's performance
and is looking forward lo this
weekend's New York State Collegiate Track and Field Association
Meet al St. Lawrence University.
Albany finished in third place
with 71 points, lopped only by Colgate's 91 and champion Cortland
State's 129 poinls in the 21 team
meet.
Danes' co-captain Eric Ncwlon
set a new Albany record of 51.5
seconds in the 400 meter dash,
breaking his own record of 51.6
seconds, while finishing fourth in
the race. Howard Williams set a
meet record in the 50 meter dash
wiih a lime of 5.9 seconds. Munsey
called il a grcal effort because
"Williams pulled up in Ihc qualifying race wiih a leg twitch and
almost pulled out of the finals. Bui
he went oul and won il."
The Danes suffered a setback
when triple-jumper and 400 meter
runner Bruce Briggs seriously injured his leg while jumping.
However, he was able to finish third

Briggs will be back for the spring
season.
Led by Iwo freshmen and Iwo
seniors, Albany smashed a team
record in the two-mile relay with a
time of 7:56, eclipsing ihc previous
mark of 8:01 set in 1974. The race
was run by Tad Wynter, Winston

Shapiro. Concentrating on the
relays, seniors Shapiro and James
led Albany lo viclory in the distance
medley. Jim Erwin and Larry
Mahan also ran legs in Ihc race.
Freshman Tom Jacobs set two
school records with a slioiput of
14.41 meters and in the 35-pound
weight with a throw of 13.70
meters. Dan Kennedy tied for third
in the pole vault. He needs lo vault
14' 10" to qualify for Ihe nationals.
Despite a bad hip, Milch Harvard
finished fifth in the 50-meler high

Albany is looking to improve on
last year's fifth place finish in Ihe

Munsey is very excited about the
future for Ihc track team.
