The women's varsity soccer team improved their record to 6-4-1 on Wednesday
aflernoon by handily defeating the Vassar
Brewers 2-1.
Although the game went to the end of
regulation time and through two overtime
periods, the Danes quite easily defeated
their opponents.
Much of the first half was played in the
Brewers' end with the Danes holding the
upper hand taking thirteen shots on goal to

Vassar Wednesday afternoon lilted their season record to 6-4-1.
goes, the Danes found themselves playing
the role of field generals for the entire
game. ,
"We had much belter movement than
we've been having the last few games.
What we tried to work on in practice was to
look for the pass first and not necessarily to
shoot,"Kidder noted.
Albany drew first blood seven and a half
minutes into the first half, when Cathy
Russo's crossing pass found Sue Slagcl,
who sent the ball sailing into the top right
side of Vassar's goal.
Albany's only real defensive mistake
became cosily twenty one minutes into the
first half. Co-captain Lisa Trance's attempt
to clear the ball resulted in an unassisted
goal for Vassar's Leslie Kaplow. Dane
goalkeeper Lori Cohen had gone out to call
for the ball, but her fullbacks could not
gain control, Kaplow booted a strong ball
passed the diving Cohen.
"I was calling for the ball and I didn't get
it, things like that happen sometimes,"
Cohen remarked alter the game.
At times the Brewers seemed to offer Utile resistance to the Danes offense attack.
But Albany's shots-on-goal weren't followed, and sparse pressure on Vassars' seemingly weak goalie resulted in only one goal
by half time.
The second half should have been a drubbing but the Danes continued to falter in
front of Vassars' goal. Albany decided to
set shop there during the half's opening
minutes. Kidder watched as her booters

The NCAA is not a very sociable
organization when it comes to awarding
playoff berths. It does not like lo invite
teams with more than one loss to its exclusive postseason parly. The Albany State
Great Danes have a pair of defeats already
on their record, so they might as well stop
worrying. Once the season ends, they'll
be free to make other plans.
But the Danes still have three games to go
in 1982. Further, they have a real shot at
garnering a fine 7-2 record before they hang
up the equipment for another year. Head
Coach Bob Ford's squad isn't about lo lei
that goal slip by also.
"Any time you set a goal for yourself of
getting into the playoffs and the achievement of that goal is impossible, there's got
to be some setback. You've got to be
realistic that you're not going to go each
year," said Ford.
"1 don't think 1 want to play for the
future," said Ford quickly dismissing the
notion that because of key injuries certain
players can get valuable experience in the
remaining games. "I want to play for today
and come up with the best record we can."
The truth remains, however, that with
starting quarterback Tom Pratt and defensive tackle Jim Canfield still restricted to
the sidelines for tomorrow's match with
Alfred University in Alfred, New York, the
Dane reserves will be able to see plenty of
action. Both backup quarterbacks Tom
Roth and Eric Liley will share the signalcalling chores against the Alfred Saxons, while
Manny Cauchi and Frank Callo again try to
hold the line in Canfield's absence.
Albany certainly felt the brunt of their injuries last Saturday. Without Pratt, the
wishbone attack could only generate 239
yards including 104 yards on the ground
and 135 yards in the air, 89 of which came
on .a single play. More significantly, the
Danes could only muster seven points
against the Cadets, a large drop from their
previous games. Defensively, the Danes felt
the loss of Canfield, the 1981 ECAC
upstate New York Defensive Player-of-lhcYear, as Norwich rushed for 204 yards and
passed for 243 more, a substantial increase
over the Dane defense that had limited its
opponents to only 95 yards rushing and 136
yards passing per game in the previous five
contests.
"You can't lose two players of their
caliber and expect to be as effective," said
Ford.
With the key players still shelved, the
Danes will have quite a task before them in
battling the Saxons. Alfred, last season's
upstate New York's representative in the
Division HI playoffs, are 4-3 this year. The
team from southwestern New York enters
the contest tomorrow fresh off a 35-21
drubbing of the Cortland Red Dragons.
Running their offense primarily out of a
wing-T variation, the Saxons use many setups to move the ball downfield.
"The thing is that the multiple formations makes it very deceiving," said assistant coach Kevin Guyette who scouted the
Saxons in their last week's victory. "We
have to keep checking so we won't be fooled."
The Saxons are quarterbacked by senior
Glenn Law. This 6'4" 206-pound thrower
has completed 107 passes of 195 attempts
accounting for a shopping total of 1,220
yards. The Saxons have averaged 30 attempts per game. "They go to the air very
often," said Guyette.
Law's favorite targets are split end Matt
Sullivan and tight end Joe Hale. The
former's 31 receptions have gained 363
yards, while the latter has caught 21 balls
good for 319 yards. "They're both standouts," commented Guyette.
The Saxons are led on the ground by
fullback Gary Foti. The veteran back has
rushed for 456 yards in 122 attempts and
has set the pace in scoring wilh five
touchdowns.
Foti is joined in the backficld by a pair of

sailed shot after shot over the Brewer's
goal.
Plagued by too much dribbling in front
of the net, the Danes continued to frustrate
themselves. Although their passing skills
have noticably improved, Albany continually found their offense congested in
the middle of the field, leaving themselves
no alternative but to pass to the wings.
Consistently stranding midfielders wide
open, and trying lo I'inesc loo much, the
Dunes found themselves ut the end of
regulation time with 39 shots-on-goal and a
game deadlocked at one goal a piece.
"We had so much time, we didn't know
who! lo do with It." Kidder added.
"We Iried to be too prelty-wc should
have just put the ball in the goal."
Finally, eight minutes into the first overtime Dee Marie found herself open on a
square puss from Sharon Wheeler and ended Albany's frustration. Marfe shot the
ball past Hillary Tall and finished the
game's scoring. By intercollegiate rules Iwo
ten-minute overtime periods must be completed before the game ends. In Wednesday's case the second overtime was just a
formality, as the Dane defense held Vassar
scoreless for the remainder of the game.
Wednesday's game was a much needed
break for the Danes, whose tough schedule
has put them to the test. Vassar, now 5-7-I,
enabled the booters to experiment on their
passing game and to work on the skills
they'll need to cam a shot at the State

Cuomo edges Lehrman in tight race
• New York
(AP) Liberal Democrat Mario C u o m o scored a narrow victory over
conservative, supply-side Republican Lewis Lehrman o n Tuesday
in New York's gubernatorial race.
Lehrman immediately obtained a court order calling for impoundment of all ballots in preparation for a recount. T h e court
order, issued in Albany County, requires law enforcement officials
to seal the voting machines and lock up the paper ballots.
With 98 percent of the vote in — 13,894 of 14,262 districts reporting — C u o m o had 2,589,659 votes or 51 percent to 2,415,335 votes
or 48 percent for Lehrman.
C u o m o , New York's lieutenant governor since 1978, and
Lehrman, a millionaire businessman making his first political race,
want to replace lame-duck Gov. Hugh Carey. Democrat Carey announced in January that he would not seek a third, four-year term.
Lehrman addressed his supporters but did not concede defeat in
last night's election, saying, " W e are not going to take the bottom
line" until all the votes arc counted.
The gubernatorial candidate made the promise shortly before
midnight as returns showed Lehrman in a virtual dead heat against
C u o m o but with networks projecting a C u o m o victory.
Lehrman, appearing before an enthusiastic crowd of campaign
faithful, said the tally could go on for hours. He appeared with
running mate James Emery, the candidates' spouses and state G O P
chairman George Clark to make the brief announcement.
O n Tuesday afternoon, Lehrman had hinted at "unbelievably
g o o d " returns from polls in New York City.
He said the
Democratic-dominated area would give him a winning edge over
C u o m o . Lehrman had just returned from greeting rush hour commuters in Penn Station.
Also on the gubernatorial ballot were Robert Bonner of the antiabortion Right t o Life Party and four other minor party candidates.
Nationally, Democrats outdistanced Republicans in dozens of
House races where President Reagan's economic policies had been
a prime issue and marched toward a sizable mid-term gains Tuesday in the chamber they have controlled for 28 years.
The major Democratic victories came as Americans elected a
newly reapportioned House of Representatives drawn to reflect a
10-year population migration to the Sun Belt.
Republicans had once hoped to cash in on this population shift
away from traditionally Democratic areas. But, with the failure of
economic recovery to materialize. Democrats seemed well on their
way to recouping most of the House losses they suffered in the 1980
G O P landslide, when Democrats lost 33 seats.
By mid-evening, Democrats had won or were leading in 208
districts; Republicans in 128. CBS News projected the overall
Democratic gain of 34 seats, and NBC News said the pickup would
be 25 seats.
" T o d a y the American people sent a message: set a fair c o u r s e , "
said House Speaker Thomas P . O'Neill Jr. as election returns
showed a clearcut Democratic win in the election Democratic
leaders had portrayed as a referendum on Reaganomics. Later, he Governor-elect Mario Cuomo
added, " I t was a disastrous defeat for the President."

Democratic Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan easily
defeated Republican, Conservative, and Right lo Life candidate Florence Sullivan.,
The two-term Brooklyn assemblywoman conceded at
10:30 p.m. as unofficial returns showed her trailing
Moynihan by a wide margin.
Sullivan, outspent nearly 8-to-l by Moynihan's $2.75
million campaign apparatus, said she lost because "I didn't
have the kind of funding 1 needed."
Moynihun declared his victory was a triumph of the
political center over the New Right.
"We have won by the largest percentuge of the vole in
the history of Senate races in New York stale," Moynihan
said. "We made this an issue: Will New Yorkers decide if
the New Right is the future of New York, and they said
'no'."
With 78 percent of the precincts reporting, Moynihan led
by 64 percent to 36 percent, with 2,437,242 voles lo
1,366,246.
Moynihan racked up huge margins in Democratic New
York City and led in 43 of the 57 olher counties in the stute,
most of which usually favor Republicans.
Samuel S. Stratton, one of the ranking Democrats on the
House Armed Services Committee, was easily elected to a
13th term.
Wilh 86 percent of the vote counted, Stratton had
137,515 votes, or 76 percent.
His closest challenger, Republican Frank Wicks, had
35,114, or 19.5 percent. Former Rep. John Ci. Dow, running on the Liberul line, had 3.5 percent of the vole with
6,254.
Patricia Mayberry, a Socialist Worker, and Mark Dunlea
on the Citizens Party line each had 3 percent of the vole,
with 569 and 506 votes, respectively.
Wicks and Ms. Mayberry both lost badly to Stratton in
1980. A hawk during the Vietnam war, Slrallon opposed
the nuclear freeze, while his four opponents all supported

State Comptroller Edwurd Regan, who abandoned a run
for governor earlier this year, took a big early lead in his bid
for a second four-year lerm as the state's official auditor.

Malaria in numbers
Campaigns prove costly
Washington, D.C
(AP) Americans elected the most expensive Congress
money can buy.
By all estimates, campaigns for 435 House seats and 33
Senate posts cost more than $300 million, and make it the
most expensive congressional election in history.
The total costs of the campaigns was up 25 percent from
the roughly $240 million spent two years ago, and the $200
million spent in 1978, the last comparable non-presidential
election year.
It will be months before the final figures arc in from the
more than 2,000 candidates and 3,000 political committees
who raised and spent the money, but there arc enough clues
available to give a good estimate of the final bill.
Common Cause, the non-partisan citizens organization,
has added up the most recent pre-election spending reports
submitted by the major party nominees in the Senate races.
Those candidates spent about $82 million, Common Cause
said.
After including independents, wriic-ins, third party
nominees and ail the candidates who never made il past the
primaries, Common Cause thinks Ihc Senate races will cost
$120 million in the end.
On the House side, Common Cause has labulatcd only
87 key contests so Tar. As of Oct. 13, the major party
nominees in those races spent $43.5 million. The watchdog
group predicts total expenditures will reach $180 million.
Meanwhile, private groups have probably spent about $4
million to attack or support candidates independently of
Ihe official campaigns.

With a raised South African Flag and a
heightened sense of unity, approximately 50
students led by the Albany State Gospel
Chorus, paraded in song on the podium
yesterday to commemorate Black Solidarity
Day.
Black Solidarity Day, sponsored by the
Albany State University Black Alliance
(ASUBA) was designed to raise SUNYA's
consciousness and unite the black community on and off campus, according to
ASUBA President Eddie Edwards.
Speaking enthusiastically to a group of
approximately 20 black students, Department Chairman of African and AfroAmerican students Dr. Frank Pogue expressed his deep concern about the need for
a cohesive community among black
students,
Pogue declared that the "way to
solidarity is through consciousness raising.
We must Identify with each other — say
hello, touch each other, even say 11 we you
— we huve something in common — we arc
all an oppressed minority."
Referring 10 Ihc Black Alumni Association as a source of strength and support for
the students, Pogue explained that ASUBA
was the link between the SUNYA campus
and the alumni. It is, according to Pogue, a
link urgently needed lo encourage consciousness raising.
He also encouraged all black students to
enroll in Afro-American studies courses.
"If you don'l know your history, you don't
know yourself. If you don't know yourself,
you can become part of the problem,"
Pogue warned.
Pogue also cited the Community Services
Program as a useful educational device to
the university since it provides a vehicle for

Washington, D.C.
(AP) When economic hard limes hit, can employers be
forced to cast aside seniority systems and protect racial
minorities from layoffs?
The Supreme Court agreed Monday lo answer that question when il accepted a dispute from Boston for review.
The justices will decide whether such steps, taken lo make
up for past racial bias, are forms of "reverse discrimination" against whites.
Lower courts said Boston's traditional "last-hired, firstfired," seniority system could be set aside to preserve jobs
for blacks and Hispanics in the city's fire and police departments.
Under usual layoff procedures, a cutback in departmental employees last year would have dropped the percentage
of minorities among Boston police from 11.7 to 6.2 percent. Minority representation among firefighters would
have dipped from 14.7 to 9.1 percent. Both departments
have been under court orders to increase Ihc number of
blacks and Hispanics who worked for Ihem.
A federal trial judge last year ruled that despite the
layoffs, the percentage of blacks and minorities could not
decrease.
The first U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld that order
last May, saying it was needed to carry out established affirmative action.
The Supreme Court's eventual decision is not likely to
signal a retreat from its previous rulings upholding the
vuliditiy of some forms of affirmative action. The court
first so ruled in it s famous "Bakke" (Incision of 1978.

Washington, D.C.
(AP) When the smoke clears after the I982 campaign,
voters might expect their elected officials to set aside partisanship and start dealing with the problems thai

That's not likely lo happen.

According to Pogue, the peak of black
enrollment at SUNYA was 800 students in
1973, but since then, it has declined to 480.
Pogue emphasized the need to continue to
struggle for more black students, faculty
members, and administrators, saying, "We

Straker continued by saying that there is
a direct correlation between the number of

economic conditions in the history of the

their own white people," he said. "When
Ihc times get rough they say, 'Black people
have your jobs, they have your place in
school, they're taking your place in
society.'"
Straker also believed that when "the
black community unity is high, the KKK
seems to deteriorate. When we assert
humanity and call for human rights, the
enrollment declines. During the I960's civil
rights movement, KKK activity declined."
The KKK primarily based their tactics on
Ihc element of surprise, Straker maintained. Calling them "terrorist cowards," he
emphasized Ihc need for an organized community.
"It Is Important to speak out and unite.

Alcoholism cripples mind and body
By Mark Gesner
Alcohol is a drug. It is the most socially
accepted drug in society today. Alcoholism
is the disabling condition resulting from uncontrolled drinking. "In terms of systemwide damage to the body, nothing comes
close to alcoholism," said Middle Earth
Coordinator Dr. David Jenkins.
Similar to other drugs, alcohol triggers a
different reaction in each
individual. However, a
Middle Earth tape entitled
Decision Making About
Drinking does stale that
"alcohol, taken in small doses, tends to act
like a mild tranquilizer. . . heavy intake of
alcohol can serve as an anesthetic —
anesthetizing the deepest levels of brain
function."
Although alcohol has been proven to be a
potent drug, statistics show about seven out
of ten adults drink alcoholic beverages.
"Booze is a very generally acceptable thing.
It's available, and it docs a very good job
on what it intends to d o , " explained John
Dublinski, Coordinator of Education at St.
Peter's Alcoholism Rehabilitation
Center (SPARC).
"Alcohol happens to be the most accessible and most approved drug in society,"
said Jenkins. "The attitude in society is that
it's not a drug,"
Many positive myths about drinking are
continually expressed in the niediu. Common false beliefs say that drinking will
make you mature, more manly, and more
sexually able. Another myth defines
drunkencss as a humorous state. "TV and
movies tend to glamorize the 'funny
drunk', but in real life getting drunk is not
funny," warns the Decision Making About
Drinking tape.
Perhaps the most universal reason for
consuming alcohol is to relieve stress. In the
college atmosphere, stress often appears to

It is crucial to realize that alcoholism and plained Albany District Representative for
alcohol abuse, which is more common in
college students, are two different problems.
"Alcoholism is a disease which is
primarily chronic, affecting the entire person in his physically emotional, mental, and
spirtual aspects of life. And it is prone to
relapse," explained Dublinski.
For a long time, alcohol was thought of
as merely a crutch for the weak individual.
Now, the effects of alcoholism arc seen in a
more complete light. "The uniqueness of
the disease is that it has some dcflnatc

Whether it's alcoholism or alcohol abuse,
it is often difficult for anyone to realize that

offers some crucial questions to the person
questioning personal drinking habits. Do

"We are there to improve the quality of
our own lives," said Moore. "We try to
find what it is that we can do to alter our
lives to live serenely with the active illness."
However, the emotional and spiritual
changes are not so visible. " A person has to
protect himself in his environment and with
his peers," said Dublinski. "They have to
alter their behavior and begin a process of
denial. They begin to withdraw and isolate
themselves from society. The end of isolation is destructive."
"Alcohol abuse," said Jenkins, "is the
use of alcohol which becomes a problem for
effects on the whole body," said Dublinsky.
The physical changes In an alcoholic are
easy to delect, according to Dublincki.
Damage to the liver, especially cirrhosis

Birbiglia called the rebuilding cost as a
"tremendous financial drain," explaining
that the club could not afford a comprehensive Insurance plan. But the landlord is
helping out with financing, he udded, the
salvaged equipment has been sold, and a
settlement was reached on the insurance
they did have.

J.B. Scolls, Ihc Central Avenue
nightclub that has been closed since being
engulfed by fire last July 23, is due to reopen within the next two months, said coowner Vincent Birbiglia.
Investigation of the blaze, which has
been attributed to arson by police, is continuing. Birbiglia said there were no suspects
and he could only speculate on who was
responsible.
"When you're the number one club and
you're taking business away from other
places," he said, "everyone wants to see
you gone."
Extensive rcnnovatlon of the club is now
underway, Birbiglia said. A new roof is being constructed to cover the redesigned bar,
u new sound and lighting system has been
added, and the interior has been
redecorated. Seating capacity will increase
by about one hundred, he said.
"J.B. Scotts was dingy as far as the intcrror was c o n c e r n e d , " Birbiglia
lamented. "A constant complaint was that
the place was always dirty. The new interior
will be real nice."
and down situation," he said. "We are real
happy to break even on most acts," he said,
revealing that most profit was made at the
bar.
In the past, the club has featured Todd
Rundgrcn, David Crosby, the Dixie Dregs,
and John Hall. The Pretenders and Pat
Benatar appeared there early in their
careers.
However, Birbiglia quickly
pointed out that he Is not running an exclusive rock club. "We try to do a complete
cross-section of music, he said, mentioning
jazz and folk groups have frequently performed there.
"Bands play Scotts for a lot less than
elsewhere because they love playing the
room," he said, explaining that groups like
the club's sound system. At most places, he
pointed out, a band has to supply their own
sound system.
Birbiglia was in the retail record business
before he and partner Doug Jacobs, along
with two others, opened the club in 1977.
He attributed some of J.B. Scott's success
to Jacobs' experience as a touring band
member, saying that he knows how to make
bands feel at home in the club.
The new J.B. Scotts will feature some
changes. Shows will begin at 8:00 p.m during the week instead of 10:00 PM, so people
can get home earlier, according to Birbiglia.
Also, happy hour will commence at 5 p.m.
while MTV, the "music network" is shown
on two large video scrccnts.
While the club is being reconstructed,
Birbiglia said they are promoting band such
as Missing Persons and The Motels at the
Palace Theatre. Scotts will start booking
acts after Ihc roof is finished and the interior redecoration has begun. He said
SUNYA's WCDB will help promote the
reopening and described the community as
"supportive."
Birbiglia concluded that (he temporary
absence of J.B. Scotts has left an entertainment gap in the Albany area.
"The fact that we've been closed has made
everyone realize how lucky they were to
have us."

can't control it, you can't cure it. You must

Although Moore said, "Since the illness
is baffling, the recovery is also baffling,"
there arc active ways to help ihe problem
drinker recover.
"We do things ranging from condoning
to consoling," is what Jenkins explained as
the first reaction to the problem drinker.
"We enable them to drink by giving them
excuses to do so."
According to Jenkins, one must become

that individual or any other individual."
Additionally, Dublinski said that in
alcohol abuse "the drinking is done for
some other reasons. It could be to keep up
our own lives," said Moor. "We try to find
what it is that we can do to alter our lives to
live serenly with the active illness."
One of the beliefs Al-Anoh fosters is that
it is important to live and let live. "When
the spouse or friend no longer contributes
to the alcoholic's life, the individual will
begin to look at himself. This meuns to just
not participate in rescue anymore. It
doesn't mean not giving support in other
ways," commented Moore.

If you or a friend has a problem with

And The Beat Go On
Starship Survives
ontrary to popular belief, the
British Invasion of 1964-65 didn't
catch the American music scene
totally by surprise. Bob Dylan was making
his transition from folk guitar to electric
while the Motown sound was making
Detroit famous for something else beside
cars. Things were brewing on the West
Coast, too, especially In San Francisco. It
was here In 1965 Marty Balln and Paul
Kantner formed Jefferson Airplane, a band
that played fold-rock Influenced music.
The Airplane would become precursors of
the acid rock, Halght Ashbury sound,
which also has the Grateful Dead, et al., as
graduates
'
.
year later.The group seemed to had lost Its
special Identity It had since the beginning.
As Winds of Change demonstrates, the
band Is trying to regain some of Its old form
and Is somewhat successful. Grace Slick
returned to Jefferson Starship last year for
Modern Times and she Is again teamed up
with vocalist Mickey Thomas, who joined
the group In 1979.
Before Joining the Starship. Thomas was
best known for his vocal on Elvln Bishop's
"Fooled Around and Fell In Love".
Though he doesn't quite match Balln's
this type has been done too many times
before to be really effective here.
"I Will Stay" Is cut in the same vein as
"Be My Lady" but it has a much more
ethereal s c i n d that gives It a nice soft quality, thanks to mellow piano/keyboard work
by Sears. Like three other songs on the
album, it features the songwritlng combination of Sears and his wife Jeannette,
though this one sounds like It could be
done by REO Speedwagon. A welcome
breakaway from the heavy "love content"
of the album Is "Out of Control", a Paul

"Can'l spend the time on tin- holes Got to
eatcher donul and forget aboul the holes"
The album closes out with "Quit Wasting
Time", which deals with the "lei's live lor
today" attitude. It features more good Interplay from Thomas. Slick and Chaquico.
Robert Gordon
Their 1967 album Surrealistic Pillow
had become a classic, and two songs
off that album. "White Rabbit" and
"Somebody to Love" became musical standards. The Airplane Introduced the Innovative "light shows" to the East Coast in
their concerts In early 1967 and they pu 1

festivals as Monterey, Woodstock and Aliamont. By the close of the '60's the Airplane t
were firmly established as one o l
American's top rock groups.
Always having a penchant for keeping
I up with the times, If not ahead o l It, the Jefferson Airplane changed their name to the
Jefferson Starship In 1974. Their albums
stayed near the lop of the charts through
the mid and late '70's, Including Spitfire,
Earth, and the number one Red Octopus.
Jefferson Starship still seems to be
preoccupied with looking forward Into the
future, as reflected In the title of last year's
Modern Times release and their new album
Winds of Change. The way the last four
years have been for the band, it seems like
a good Idea. Their drummer, John Barbata, was critically injured In a car accident
In October 1978. just four months after
rioters at a festival in Germany destroyed
over $1 million worth of Starship equipment when the group cancelled a show.
Vocalist Grace Slick quit the band two days
after the riot and Marty Balln left than a

himself. The Slick-Thomas Interplay Is best
displayed on the title track, which proves to
be one of the best cuts off the album. The
song Is extremely well-balanced vocally
and musically, and features some nice
guitar work by Craig Chaquico. Thomas
takes over the lead vocals himself for
"Keep on Dreamin"' which has another
guitar workout from Chaquico while Pete
Sears carries the bass rhythm. The song
moves well, though It sounds like the band
has been listening to Journey records too
much. "Be My Lady" Is passable pop, but
Kantner composition with lyrics by Kantner, Slick, and their daughter China. "Out
of Control" Is just that, with the band walling through much of the tune In a total
frenzy, led off by Aynsley Dunbar's drum
smashing while Slick's vocals are as convincing as ever as a person who has taken a little too much speed for the evening.
Though some of the lyrics and backing

throwback to the old Airplane days of the

The Duo And The Fishing Net
T
wo and a half hours is a long time
to spend with a two character
romance, but then three and a
half was a big Investment for Streetcar
Named Desire and three hours was a long
stretch for Jeanne Darnell's Feathers, two
of last year's Capital Repertory productions. Nevertheless, Cap Rep pulls off a
charming debut for this, their third season
of existence and second at the Market
Theater on South Pearl Street.
Andrew Carroll
The play is Gardner McKay's Sea Marks,
a love story set on Ireland's rocky coast and
in a tiny flat in Liverpool, with two lovers
representing the tug of those disparate
lifestyles. Richard Zobel stars as the Irish
fisherman out of his element, and Marylou
DIFillppo Is Ihe Liverpudlian who tries to
keep him there.
After a monologue by Zobel's Colm
Primrose on the life of a fisherman, full of
brawny, briny lalk of crashing waves and
howling winds and evenings by a fire of
turf, Ihe play proceeds in a series of
blackouts In which he woos DiFlllppo's
Tlmolhea by mall. It's nearly a two year
courtship which McKay disposes of In a
matter of minutes, anxious to get to the
meat and potatoes (mostly potatoes) of this
Irish-English romance. The pair proceed to
meet, fall in love, share a bed, and set up
house of sorts in the big city. Tlmolhea has
a surprise In slore for Colm, however; It
seems she's pulled some strings at the
publishing house where she works and has
a batch of Colm's letters published as "Sea
Sonnets."
The point becomes loss of innocence,
first as Colm loses his virginity to this onetime divorcee, then as he fights the corruption of Ihe publishing game. Tomothea has
big plans for what Ihe critics are hailing a
talented "primitive" and Ireland's "Robert
Frost of the sea," but Colm still dreams
about nights on the storm-tossed Irish
coast. The play climaxes with a lengthy
monologue, which Colm supposedly
delivers before the audience o( "The Billy
Bright Show," and in which he reiterates
the irresistable call of Ihe wild sea.
It's not the stuff of great drama, but
McKay saves the simple "should -he-stayor-should-he-go" plot with some genuinely
lovely, often moving dialogue. The poetry
he writes for Colm captures much of the
"The point becomes loss of innocence,
first as the fisherman loses his virginity, then as he
fights the corruption of the publishing game."
T
he English Beat have a knack for
beating out good albums. Their
first two, f Just Can't Stop It and
Wha'ppen? introduced us to their brand of
reggae. They pair a rhythmic guitar and a
fast-moving banjo, rather than the usual
wah-wah guitar. Theirs Is a fuller sound,
rounded out by a staccatoed sax and fluent
keyboards, making it a speeded up, richer
sounding version o( reggae music.
Gail Merrell
Their latest release, Special Beat Serulce
uses all that and more. It has danceable
pop and calypso tunes, ballads, and of
course reggae.
So what's the "special service"? The service is that this is one of the best albums
released this year. Since the new current
(not new wave!) trend Is tending towards
pop music (Squeeze, Elvis Costello, Dexy's
Midnight Runners) the English Beat have
delivered a pop reggae album.
The album flows from song to song so
smoothly that It's hard to believe how many
different styles are meshed here. "Jeannette" rhymes "ette" so many limes you'd
swear the lyrics werre lifted from David
Johansen's "Frenchette". It's a pop song,
highlighted by an organ that mimics the
sounds of old Italy. The sax in "Sorry" Is
seductive, while It's punchy and brassy on
"Ackee 1 2 3 " , a pulsating calypso number
that Harry Belafonte would have been proud of.
The English Beat are men living in the
real world. They are not young, as
evidenced by the fact that Saxa can no
longer tour with Ihe band, although he Is
still recording with them. They aren't
writing about their glorious youth of the
past, and their music reflects this. They
aren't a rock and roll band, they play a
bluesy reggae, which Is Britain's brand of
Black Music. They don't sing about cars
and the prom. They're trying to sort out
their feelings on what it's like to be out for
yourself, as they do In "Sole Salvation",
and how agonizing It Is to keep pace In a
world of "Sugar and Stress".
"Save It for Later", the first single off of
the album, is just the tip of ait emotional
Iceberg. What lies underneath are confused, cold statements, balanced only by the
warmth and fullness of the music.
They don't go to the couch with every cut;
they do unmask their thoughts on human
relationships several limes. "I Confess" exposes a man who feels no remorse for the
lives he has ruined, although his conscience Is telling him to feel, He wears a defiant front. Yet when he begins shouting,
we realize tils thin facade. Not as
ponderous Is "Rotating H e a d " , which
describes a society conscious paranoia that
reduces a man to a pair of eyes on a swivel.
"Save it for Later", a seemingly Innocent
enough pop song. Is a cold plea with a
jilted girl to let her "legs give way, you hit
the ground". No doubt Ihe male version of
Romeo Void.
Don't be put off by all of this soulbearing, for Ihe English Beat deliver It with
such a deft hand that it remains unnoticed
until you begin to dlsect the lyric sheet. It's
actually a welcomed addition to have a
record directed at a more adult audience,
not at a teenage wasteland. Besides, the
band touches closer to home on other
tunes. Songs like "Sorry", "She's Going"
and "End of the Party" echo our thoughts
more accurately than the usual barrage of
ditties similarly titled. The remainder of the
album is filled with nonsense songs and
danceable tunes. In "Ackee 1 2 3 " Ihe
chorus of happy little children and the silly
lyrics recall Images of the pied piper leading
a band of children. It's an album with styles
and views so varied It will surely reward
anyone who listens.
So Instead of trying to satisfy your varied
tastes with a compilation album that has no
consistency, try Special Beat Serulce. It's
happy, sad, childish, stubborn, reflective
and In love Add to that excellent musicians with a fresh sound and you can't lose.
Just remember; Special Beat Serulce

But will Cuomo come through?
T
he gubernatorial election was a cliffhanger. Hours after the polls closed,
the election was still too close to call.
It finally looks like Mario Cuomo is the
next governor of New York. Lew Lehrman
will go through the traditional steps of having the voting materials impounded and recounting the votes, but it seems rather
unlikely that he can dig up the tens of
thousands of votes he needs to overturn a
Democratic victory.
Lehrman learned that the governor's office is not for sale. The $13.5 million he
spent to make himself a household name
could not make him governor, even compared to the Cuomo campaign's relatively
puny $4.6 million.
N ow that Mario Cuomo has won the office, the question will be if Cuomo can keep
his promises. He has stressed his support for
increasing the state's committment to relief
programs, student loans and support for
higher education, and other financial committments.
The biggest problem is that he hasn't said
how he's going to finance this with the state
in a financial crisis. He pointed to creative
ways of financing the state, but even a
bright guy like Mario can't pull millions of
dollars out of the air.
This same bind is what turned Hugh
Carey from a SASU-button-wearing friend
of public higher education to its nemesis.
And it's what could turn Mario Cuomo
away from his policies and into a Hugh
Carey — or a Lew Lehrman.
1 he beauty of the Cuomo victory is that
now people have a change to have an impact
in their government. The traditionally
under-represented in New York state — the
poor, minorities, and students — are among
the people who put Cuomo into office, and
should not be ignored by him.
He's made friends with the people who
helped make Carey so unpopular he could
not run for governor again. If Mario stays
true to his word, he should have an easier
time than Hugh did.

Testing puts students in competition with each other.
Throughout the incipient school years students are given
tests meant to score the degree to which subjects have learned. Grades are issued on the basis of performance. As
youngsters, students learn early that tests are important.
Doing well on tests means high grades, and the latter would
stand for progress and future reward.
By the time these students are in college the pressure to
succeed has intensified. They have learned that in order to
succeed after college they must, at present, tolerate and
comply with the grading system. What this means is a continuation of exasperating test-taking competition. But the
drive to succeed is so strong they may only grunt at this and
reluctantly "bite the bullet of conformity." A "get good
grades at any cost" mentality begins to take hold; it must,
especially for those who realize their futures could easily be
determined by how well they do, "cumulatively", on tests.
Some might say: "In order to get accepted into law school
we need high grades." Others would add: "If a good grade
point average (G.P.A.) is achieved, high paying jobs will
follow." Such statements arc so common they should be
' carved in marble. Fortunatclv. most students understand
that in actuality tests, grades, and most other conventional
means of measuring academic performance are, in many
ways, invalid; but the game must be played. Students arc
forced into a frustrating situation where, for several years
of their early adult life, they must "bang their heads" and
tolerate round after round of tests and more tests. They
must endure often cutthroat competition. Supposedly,
routine testing and competition would inevitably accomplish the enlightenment that is preparation for their
ambitious futures.
Ironically, however, intense competition in test-taking
could conceivably do the exact opposite. Students want to
succeed. This is true, however, the pressure to focus their
"studying attention" on "what's going to be on the
tcst"compe!s them to subordinate the will to learn if it interferes with scoring well on test. If how much one knows is
irrelevant to high grades then students must somehow adjust; for students realize that being prepared for an instructor's examination is not synonymous to understanding all
the material. Tests, with all their gross limitations, measure
only a small fraction of knowledge learned. Who could
sincerely argue that essay or standardized forms of exams
are intended to test everything learned from all of a professor's assignments and lectures? And since students are
not given fair credit for all they Icarrf, butonly a minute part
they can express in tests, students arc forced to devote nearly all their finite energies in preparing to learn just that one
morsel of information on which tests are to be based,
Paradoxically, students can in good faith work harder than
ever, receive honor grades, but relinquish the primary goal
an education presumably provides-a comprehensive learning experience. And logically, if sacrifices are made in the
area of learning, the objective to succeed must also get affected. One might land a good job or win acceptance into
graduate school, and these arc laudable achievements, but
what of long-term success? Life does not continue within a
classroom. The real world awaits students without curing
how high their G.P.A.'s went. The real world requires
students who arc learned individuals. Success in the world
of salaries, promotions, and job security is not derived
from an ability to score well on tests. But this is how
students have been prepared for their futures; and because
tests have limited their learning experiences, they are,
potentially, ill-equipped for success outside of the
classroom.
This paradox of testing contains some very serious
elements. No one is claiming that the testing and grading
routine, which masquerades as the bulwark of enlightenment, denies every student an education. Many students
might actually believe it has fulfilled their personal objectives in learning and future success. For them, there may
To the Editor:
I am that "enraged" student that was mentioned in October 26th's ASP in the article "Thieves Vandalize 6 Cars
in Indian Parking Lot." Anyone who has had their car
burglarized and their car stereo among other things, stolen
twice in Indian Quad's parking lot between May and midOctober would be enraged. Two acts of vandalism and two
burglaries in this parking lot within two years is too much.
Lieutenant Gus Poll! slated in last Tuesday's ASP that,
"of the 26 departments in the SUNY system, this is the
best...". Evidently, "the best" is not good enough. It's not
even adequate.
Assistant Director of Public Safety, John Hcnighan,
stated that this incident was an unusual oecurrance and that
he didn't expect the criminals to be back. This is a
ludicrous statement. I have been a victim of this type of
crime twice within five months and three of these months
were spent out of Albany.
Where is security? Six cars in different areas of Indian
Quad's parking lot were burglarized in one night. My car
was parked underneath a light. It takes time to pick and
choose equipment with a high resale value.
Every year, students face increases in the cost of education. Whether it's a tuition increase, an increase in the cost
of dorms, or university fee increases. It's quite unfortunate
that with the increases in cost to attend SUNYA that a
parking lost cannot be adequately secured against vandalism and theft.

Sexual myths
••MYTHiDomestic violence is restricted to poorlyeducated men and women from lower classes or third world
groups.
FACT: Physical abuse against women cuts across all
economic, social and age boundaries.
»>l MYTH: Sexual harassment is an issue of women being •,
too sensitive.
FACTtScxual harassment is a widespread phenomenom.
Studies indicate that 90 percent of all women surveyed list
sexual harassment as a serious problem, 70 percent have experienced sexual harassment and 50 percent said they were
forced to leave a job because of it. The Department of
Health, Education and Welfare ( now Health and Human
Services) found that 80 percent of their women employees
have experienced sexual harassment.
Sexual abuse is about power, not about sexual attraction.
Physical ( and verbal) assault is the most effective method
of keeping women "in their place" and below the status of
men.
1 agree with Mr. Miles on one account. "The end of sexual abuse will not come when the male half of the population is behind bars." Men have a responsibility in ending
violence against women. This means more than a refusal lo
engage in such behavior. Men must refuse to condone such
behavior in other men. Our culture has embedded many
negative attitudes about women. Men often use this as a
justification lor their actions or the actions of other men.
These myths allow men to ignore or dismiss violent acts
against women. Men must work to un-learn those culturally
reinforced images of misogyny. They must educate
themselves and talk lo each other.
If the future of the non-sexist society we are working
towards is in the hands of our children, it is our responsibility as parents, future parents and role models to
educate ourselves in order to educate our children. My vision is that men and women will share this responsibility.
—Mindy Herman
To the Editor:
When I was in college during the years 1972 through
1976, I dedicated most of my time to working with groups
that addressed issues that affected women. Some of the
issues included sexism in language, reproductive freedom
and violence against women. Our goal was to educate
ourselves and then to educate the women and men around
us. ( It was called consciousness raising. ) Most of our
energy was focused on the western New York University
campus that we were a part of. Sometimes, ( and not
enough ) we shared resources with the community-at-largc.

Kahane's naivete
The paradox of testing
Formal education can be accurately characterized as a
process of learning where, in order to absorb various kinds
of information, students compete for grades through
testing. The objective is to learn numerous academicdisciplines in the hope that it will bring future success.
Students might also learn, however, that testing docs not
necessarily lead to these goals.
Where is security?
I would have to go to a post office off campus. Considering
I don't have a car, as many other freshmen don't either,
and none of the off-campus post offices are on the SUNYA
bus route it was to become quite a (ask. Not too many people with cars have time to drive me to a post office, so I had
to find another way. I ended up riding a bicycle to the post
office on Fuller Road, almost getting hit twice.
Considering the fact that all incoming freshmen will now
have to register, most likely against their will, and that the
post office on campus is considered a "real" post office, I
feel that it should be able to handle draft registration. It is a
small form asking only for name, address, S.S.number,
date of birth and all the postman has to do is verify the information by checking some form of I.D. and then stamp
it. If the U.S. government wants a draft registration then I
Icel it is up to the U.S. government to make it as easy as
possible for us to register.
—Adam Fuss
Oral evaluation
not be any inhibiting paradoxes. Others, however, may not
have this conviction. Indeed, many students arc conscious
that testing interferes with and threatens the objectives that
brought them to college. It is they who suffer from the
paradox. Formal education may only benefit them with
degrees of "high learning". But can these awards really
make up for the injustices that testing has done litem?
Unlike the students who benefit from testing, these other
students bit a bullet that reports: its detonation can destroy
their chances for success.
The purpose here has not been to blame anyone or
anything for the burgeoning problem in formal education.
Testing is an unfortunate reality, but many find it a
necessary evil. Therefore, a finger of blame is not to be
pointed. Conversely, any attempt at formulating a panacea
for this dilemma must also be avoided. Each individual student has a different attitude toward the problem, thai is, If
they believe one actually exists; and thus, it would be Inappropriate to offer a universal prescription to students with
differing views. It is only hoped students arc make aware
that their frustrations and criticisms of testing and the
grading system are not irrational but wholly justified, and
that there arc many others who share in their confusion.

Only one of these pens
is thin enough
to draw the linebelow.
It's the extra-fine rolling ball of Pilot's remarkable new Precise Ball Liner
Pen. (If you haven't guessed which one it is. look at the top photo again.
It's the trim beauty on the bottom left.)
But unlike the others, the real beauty of Pilot's Precise Ball Liner is
the extra-fine line it puts on paper. It glides smoothly across the page
because its tiny tungsten carbide ball is held securely within a needle-like
stainless steel collar. A collar that makes the Precise Ball Liner the most
durable, trouble-free rolling ball pen you can buy.
It's letter-writer'sjoy. An artist's dream.
A scribbler's delight.

Sanders to try a quick kick attempting to pin the Danes deep in their
own territory. Law retreated into
punting formation while defensive
back Dave Hardy prepared to
receive the ball. The strategy appeared to work as Law's punt
traveled 42 yards bouncing off Hardy's shoulder and rolling all the way
to the Albany two-yard line. But
Hardy chased alter it, and once he
had possession, he proceeded to
break 35 yards upficld shaking off
several tacklers as he went.
"They had a shot gun formation
that they kicked out of," said Hardy. "I had a problem handling it
but then I was alright."
But the Danes failed to score,
leaving the halftime totals at 7-7.
Neither team could muster that
much offense in the third quarter.
"It was u battle between two tough,
tough defenses and two scmlcompetcnl offenses," described
Ford,
A fumble recovery by Dane Scott
Michaels opened Ihc way for
another potential score. The Danes
took control at the Alfred 32-yard
line. L.lley dropped back to pass on
first down and, as he eyed the activity In the secondary, 6'4"
230-pound linebacker Mickey
Smith came around end accelerating for 30 yards and blindsided ihc young quarterback with
perhaps the hardest hit delivered all
season in an Albany football game.
Lilcy hardly moved for several
minutes, laying very still on the
ground. He was forced to leave the
game with an injured shoulder.
Ford went to his third quarterback
of the day, Roth, to lead the charge.
He carried the ball to the Alfred
34-yard line.
Ford then gave Lincoln the third
nod of the afternoon to attempt a
record-breaking 51-yurd boot. The
kicker sent the ball long enough but
it sailed just wide right of the
uprights.
But Lincoln more than compensated for his three previous failures
by giving the Danes the lead at 7:27
of the fourth quarter. Roth had
found Brien for a 15-yard gain to
move into long field goal range. It
was Bricn's third reception of the
game. Lincoln was asked to boot a
40-yarder and he did.
The Danes played the remainder
of the game against the clock. Yet
Albany did survive a scare when
Johnson tried a 31-yard field goal
with just 4:18 left to play. The Saxon kicker missed again and Albany
took possession. This time the
Danes were able to run the clock
down to under a minute before
returning the football to Alfred. •

"We're going to hope that we can

The Bulls 4-3 record is a bit
deceiving. Buffalo has played some
top quality Division III opponents.
Most notably the Bulls faced the nation's number one team, BaldwinWallace of Cleveland, losing 31-26.
"It should be a great game to

This was the start of a five
winless streak that sent Albany
from the hope for post-season play
to a fight for a winning record. The
streak inlcuded a tough, but expected loss to Division I Hart wick,
ties with Drockport and Potsdam
and a loss at Union.
"Potsdam and Union were the
low-points of the season," said
Markes. "But the one thing Is at
least the guys never stopped
trying." Schleffelin also pointed to
that part of the season as the most
disappointing.
The Albany 1-0 lead turned into a
2-1 halftime lead for North Adams.
Two defensive lapses allowed the
scores for the Mohawks. Bob
Hansmann scored the first goal,
assisted by Don Derion and Ray
Remillard. The Albany defense left
too much space open in the penalty
box and Derion capitalized at
39:50. A Derion cornerkick was put
into the net by Mike DeMorriss at
43:41, as again the Danes were
unable to clear the area in front of
goalie Tom Merritt.
Albany made a resurgence late In

frustration is the word that best
describes this period. Hard luck and
not getting breaks, terms usually used by losing teams, certainly apply
to the Danes. A mistake by standout defensive player Michael
Miller cost Albany the game with
Binghamion. Miller keyed the
defense, which played with a good
amount of consistency throughout
the season. The loss to Onconla
featured several shots by the Danes

final score. The Dnncs despite

unable to even the score and force
the game into overtime. Dorian
Fanfare summed up the team's reeling, "I just don't believe it."
With two games remaining on

avert a losing season. A win and a

Albany entered Saturday's game

feeling was, perhaps the team
would have thai offensive explosion

Danes dominated play, but were
unable to put the ball in the net.
The inability to score plagued
Albany all season long. Five times
the team was shutout. Albany
created plays very well, and on
many occasions they controlled the
tempo of the game. Isaacs and Bacchus were especially instrumental in
the Dane offense, creating
numerous scoring chances. The
problem was, the Danes were
unable to cash in on their chances.
"We could not finish off our plays.
There was a lack of intensity," said
Isaacs.

Saturday, don't panic. They'll probably be footballs flying from one
end of the gridiron to the other.
The high powered University of
Buffalo Bulls lead by the prolific
passing of potential All-Amcrican
quarterback Marty Barrett visit
Albany to lake on the Danes.
Last week the Bulls lost a tough
one to Norwich 20-15 to drop their
record to 4-3. But despite the loss
the team threw for 350 total yards.
Barrett has already thrown for
over 1000 yards even though he was
forced to miss the middle three
games of this season with u
separated shoulder. Before his injury, Barrett was leading the nation
in total offense. Last season the
6'2" 190-pound Buffalo native also
enjoyed a banner year passing for
over 2500 yards.
Barrett's backup is not too shabby a passer himself. Ken Hyer, also
a Buffalo resident, is a lefthander
who has thrown for over 1000 yards
this season as well.
"He stepped in and did a real
good job against Canisius. He completed his first eleven passes of the
game," Dane assistant coach Kevin
Karwath said.
Karwath expects the Bulls to interchange both passers during the
course of the game.
There can not be successful passing without successful receiving.
The Bulls have three fine receivers
in Chris D'Amico, Jim Stojak and
halfback Pal Whitehead.
Whitehead leads the team in the
receiving category with 39 catches
for 396 yards. He is also the team's
leading rusher.
The Bulls have a lot of experience
defensively. Their entire starting
front four consists of seniors anchored by 6'0" 270-pound Gary
Brown. "He's been their top defensive lineman," Karwath said.

A host of champions at the Great Dane Classic
By Mark Gessner
ASSOCIATE SPORTS EDITOR
Last year it was the second big-'
gest collegiate wrestling tournament
in the East. This year, over 250
grapplers are expected to participate.
It's the Great Dane
Classic, a tournament in which the
Albany State men's wrestling team
is not only the host but the defending champion as well.
an assistant coach for the Danes,
said Boston might prove to be
especially tough this season. "This
is the first year Albany will be going
against Boston in dual meet competition. The tourney will give an
idea of what's to come. It should
add some extra rivalry," Genova
said.
It's going to be hard for the grapplers to repeat many of the marks
they accomplished in the 1981-82
season. A final record of 17-3-1, a
twelfth place finish in the NCAAs,
and a total of three All-Americans
were amongst the wrestling records
set last year. Team captain Vic
Herman also provided an individual
record totaling more career wins
than any other grappler in Albany
State history,
"In terms of quality, we probably have some of the best
wrestlers in the East," said Dane
Head Coach Joe DcMeo.
The
Classic draws representatives from
Division I, II and III schools.
In what could have easily been
called an upset, the Division III
Danes narrowly outscored Division
I Boston University to win last
year's tourney. DcMeo admitted

Rally demands release of starving Scharansky
By Mary Beth Pulslfer
Over 50 students rallied in front of the
Campus Center yesterday shouting "Free
Sharansky now!" to urge the release of
Anatoly Sharansky, a Russian prisoner of
conscience who is on his 43rd day of a
hunger strike in prison.
At the rally which continued at the
Cupitol two hours later, spct kcrs expressed
their views of Sharansky and described the
plight of the Jews in the Soviet Union.
Mark Friedland, organizer of the rally,
said Sharansky's struggle for freedom
began in 1973 when he submitted a formal
application for a visa to Israel. His application was repeatedly denied on the grounds
that he was in "possession of classified Information," since lie worked as a computer
programmer at the Moscow Research Institute for Oil and Gas.
A press release on Sharansky maintains
"it is a known fact that the Institute in
which he worked was unclassified."
The day after his marriage in 1974,
Sharansky's wife was forced to leave the
Soviet Union. She is presently in Jerusalem
where she lias "spearheaded a world wide
effort on his behalf." When lie was refused
his right to emigrate, he joined other
Kefusenits.
In 1977 he was sentenced to 13 years for
treason to a Soviet prison camp,"
Friedland said.
Sharansky started his
hunger strike after the Soviets refused him
visiting rights and letters from his family.
"Sharansky never compromised his soul
even afici threat ol death," Friedland
noted.
Many speakers were upset with the small
turnout of the rally. Rabbi Kohl of Ohar
Shalom said, "The purpose of this rally is
as much foi us to remain silent is a crime we
commit. We are here lo cry aloud for our
own sake and Sharansky's." He continued
by his disappointment concerning the small
turnout by saying "When it comes down to
doing something we don't see that kind of

I'fl'ori on the part of students," he said. He
urged students to call upon the University
Senate to adopt resolutions on behalf of
Sharansky.
Glen Moncs, co-founder of Revisionist
Zionist Alternative was also upset over the
small turnout. Looking around he asked
"Where are all the Jewish students? Jews
have in yet angry and demonstrate their
anger. ("hey have lo say to the Soviet
Union that as long as they are going to
work against the Jews, (he Jews are going to
work against them." he said.
Many of the speakcis empha sized the injustices the Jews suffer in Russi.| P i . S l e \ e
Wlnmuller, president of the Greater
Albany Jewish Federation and Chairman of
the Human Rights Committee said, "The
Soviet government is the single greatest
enemy of the Jewish community."
lie said Sharansky was symbolic of the
lour million prisoners who will build the
pipeline from East Europe to West Europe.
"The irony of it is, the rest of the world
assumes the pipeline is a savior. Actually,
the pipeline is being built with human
blood," Wlnmuller added.
Rabbi Kohl also spoke out against the
Soviet's treatment of Jews. He said that the
Jews threaten lo undermine the society of
Russia. "The Soviet dream is to wipe out
the Jewish community heart and snul," he
said, and added "Nazism sought to exterminate oui bodies. The Soviets seek to exterminate our sotds."
The vice president of K / A , Jeff
Schulmanane gave the reasons for the
group's active position,"We are here
because one of our people is dying and we
won't lei him die in silence, in" WWII we lei
our people die ill silence. Never again," he
said.
Later at the Capitol, ihe ralliers chanted,
"Free Sharansky now!" They said prayeis
and gave and listened lo more speeches. Ai
one point, Russian flags were burned.
'
Assemblyman Richard Connors gave a
speech declaring no human being is free until all are free and congratulated the group
for being active.
lor the rest of the night, the group planned an all night vigil consisting of services,
special prayers and learning sessions. "By
doing these iliings we reaffirm our solidariiv will) the people of Russia," Mones said.
Keith Sliatiow, R/.A member, explained,
"We do the learning session in their name
since it is a right Jews in Russia can't do
themselves," he said. The vigil was supposed to lasi until 10:00 a.m.
1 he rally was sponsored by RZA in
cooperation with JSC-Hillcl-World Jewry's
Project Rcfusenik "in hopes lo raise the
consciousness of the campus and local
Jewish community as to the plight of
Sharansky and Soclet Jews in general," said
R/.A president Sieve Hilsenrath.

were denied, according lo Church Hall
Democratic Committeeman Billy Carl. Approximntcly I(X) Alumni Quad residents encountered difficulty because ihey listed Ihe
uptown campus address on their registration cards, he said.
Carl explained thai students who were
improperly registered at Church Hall were
either seal to other polling places or given
paper ballots to use. However, he observed
that several students failed to vote because
of ihe misunderstanding. He added that
"student voter turnout was heavy this
year."
Corso noted that tit St. Margaret Mary's
School, the polling place for students
registered in Albany County, at least 400 of
the total 872 voters were SUNYA students,
He said he is "very impressed" with ihe turnout and that "it's Ihe best turnout we've
ever had."
Corso felt the elections went smoothly
Tuesday. "'Ihe Democratic parly committeemen and ward members have been very
cooperative, understanding and helpful in'
making it possible for all students to vole,"
he said.
Executive Vice-President of SASU Scott
Wexler attributed the large student volet
turnout lo ihe importance of a gubernatorial election and ihe on-campus
publicity for student voter registration,
Although tlie majority of student voters
are registered Democrats, Wexler said
Democratic parly officials were surprised at
ihe apparent widespread student support
for Cuomo.

Many students said they were eligible lo

However, SUNYA student Manny Mat hew
explained, "It's important to vote in this
election because a gubernatorial race directly affects New York Stale and therefore
directly affects SUNY students."

we have lo concentrate on our tests."
Tuesday's students voter turnout was the
culmination of several monlhs of work by
NYPIRG, SASU, SA, Student Union, and
tlie Off-Campus Association. The five
organizations worked together to encourage student voter registration. Leaflets
were passed out before elections telling
students when and where to vole, and provided a listing of the candidates running for
each office. Additionally, Wexler estimated
that about 500 phone calls were made on
Tuesday reminding students to vote.
