Poor attendance marks bus fee public hearings

A public hearing by the SUNYA Task

only five people at the Page Hall auditorium

However, 12 of 15 scheduled speakers strongly opposed the fee.

output.
The opening drive of the game
seemed to establish to the Danes
that their offense was capable of
moving the ball on Southern Connelicul's defense, even though no
points were registered.
Driving 64 yards on seven rushing
plays to the Southern Conneticut
23, Milano's first pass was intercepted in the end zone.
"1 think that first series was
critical because it gave the kids confidence that they could move the
football, which is what a young
club always needs," said offensive
backfield coach Eddie Zaloom.
"That confidence carried us the
whole way."
After a scoreless first quarter for
both teams, the Danes finally struck
with 10:12 left in the half on a play
that baffled the Owl defense.
Wide receiver Bob Brien look the
ball on a reverse end around. In-
stead of running the ball, which he
did successfully last week
before fumbling it, Brien cocked
back his arm and unleashed a bomb
to wide receiver John Donncly.
With no Owl defender within 10
yards of Donncly, he caught the
ball and sprinted into the endzone
to complete the 75-yard touchdown
pass.
"It's such a lough play to
defend," said Brien. "We really
fooled them."
"They weren't expecting it," said
Milano."The defense were all coming in."
Said Coach Zaloom: "The key to
the play was Bricn's cool. He had to
throw the ball with a defender in his
face. It was a super play."
The one touchdown lead held up
at halftime and even though the
Owls gained 138 total yards, the
Danes' defense came up with the
big play when they needed it.
In the first five minutes of the second half, the Danes scored all the
points they would wind up needing.
Wayne Anderson took the opening kickoff and found daylight
down the righlsidc for 46 yards putling the Danes on the Owl 35 yard
line. Five plays later Milano ran 18
yards for the score at 12:31 mark of
the third quarter on an inside
keeper which saw the sophomore
quarterback slip a few tackles.
The Dane momentum continued
to build on the next possession
when Owls' punter John Dupois lei
a high snap go over his head into
the endzone. Dupois made a smart
move by hitting the ball out of the
endzone, costing Southern Conneticut two points instead of a
possible six.
Down 16-0, the Owls started to
make their move scoring two
touchdowns in the span of 1:25

Association fee, saying that "both the SA
and the bus service arc good things."
The remaining 12 speakers spoke against
the fee from a variety of positions.
Kobcrl Coleman, representing the Albany
Division of Traffic Safety, noted that many
students frequent burs away from campus
and added that "if they're drinking we don't
want them driving." He further noted that
the bus service helps "keep our streets
safe." Several speakers said they considered the implementation of a bus fee, a
"breach of contract," Adam Barsky, Ihc SA
comptroller, said that buses are part of the
central educational services that ate Included
in tuition. He said he considered il a breach
because students have paid in advance, and
bus service is required in a split campus situation. He also protested that the issue was Ihc
university's problem because they had
already accepted the responsibility of providing bus transportation.
The alienation of ALumni Quad residents
was also raised. Maureen Ryan, Central
Council Alumni Quad representative, objected to the fee because it "will be seriously
restricting Ihc interchange between the uptown and downtown campuses."
"Discontinuation is discrimination against
off-campus students," charged Off-Campus
Association representative, Robert Fishkin,
noting his own dependence on the bus service.
Steven Waldman, an Alumni Quad student, added thai "a lot of students don't expect lo be living downtown," He also noted
that the present system is already "skeletal."

Area campaigns heating up as election nears
By Robert Gardinier
ASSOCIA TE NEWS EDITOR
SUNYA students will have the opportunity
to get involved in local politics with this
November 8th's general election. They will
be eligible to vote in contests for 3 legislative
districts' scats along with a number of city
and county scats.
All SUNYA students are eligible to vote in
city-wide elections except the Guilderland
22nd district (Indian and one half of Dutch).
In a prominent county race for which all
SUNYA students are eligible to vote, incumbent Democrat Jim Coyne, holding the office
of County Executive, is 'opposed by a 1978
SLJNYA graduate, Paul Burgdorf, who is
running as both Republican and Independent.
Coyne has held the post for eight years,
but has recently come under fire as a result of
Times Union reports of mismanagement of
County funds. The Times Union reported
yesterday that Coyne called for an audit of
county purchasers.
Burgdorf explained that he felt the county
had been wrongly represented because of a
history of 52 years of Democratic control.
"The county needs a system of checks and
balances," he said, "which it would get if it
elected a Republican to Ihc office."
According lo the Albany County Board of
elections the county had 79,142 registered
Democrats last year compared to 40,892
Republicans. By contrast, Inst year there
were 44,354 Democrats compared to 2,732
Republicans registered in the City of Albany,
according to the Albany County Board of
Elections.
In Guilderland district 22, which included
all of Indian Quad and one half of Dutch, incumbent Republican Kevin Moss is contested
for his position of town supervisor by
Democrat Francis Melfe.
Moss, a local lawyer who has held the position since January of 1982, was instrumental
in creating the new Guilderland district 22,
which is mostly popuplatcd by SUNYA
80
students. He also helped provide a polling
place at the SUNYA gymnasium.
Melfe, who works for the New York Stale
Division of Youth, and who has never held a
political office before, graduated from
Mount Saint Mary College in Maryland in
1954. He said he fell that Moss is not providing adequate service lo (he town.

Melfe pointed out thai officials of
Guilderland are always complaining aboul
the Democratic machine of Albany county,
but " a Republican machine has existed in
Guilderland for 113 years," he said. He
stated that it was his desire lo be bipartisan in
regard to the lown board, and that no
Republicans or others on the board need fear
their position if he were elected. Melfe added
that he believes in merit, not political affiliation in appointive posilions.
Moss, who was appointed Town Judge in
I978 and then later filled the position ol
Town Supervisor, graduated from Siena College and Albany Law School in 1972 and was
admitted to the bar in 1973. He has had trial
law practice with the city firm Hcsson, Ford,
Sherwood and Whalen (no relation to the
mayor).
Moss countered Melfe's claims of inadequacy by mentioning his, and the board's,
work on the new Guilderland budget, which
includes outlays of over $4 million. "The
budget this year provided for a 44 percent tax
cut," according to Moss. "1 don't know
how you could do that without managerial
abilities," he asserted.
Both candidates said they consider student
voting rights in their college town as important to student life. Moss said his actions in
the past over the establishment of a SUNYA
polling place has proved his case. "The
students add to the dimensions of the community," said Moss. Melfe stated that he

to energy savings at SUNYA
By A m y W e i n c r
Two SUNYA scientists recently conducted a statewide
audit of energy use in public buildings, and have made
recommendations for more economical energy use, according lo a University News Bureau Press release.
Ronald Stewart and Donald L. McClcnahan, of
SUN YA's Atmospheric Sciences Research Center have just
completed 5,000 statewide energy audits under a $1.5
million contract with Ihc Slate Energy office, according 10
the press release.
The audits were done by the two along with specially
trained students from nine community colleges in the state
al schools, hospitals and government buildings across the
stale, Ihc release explained.
The conservation methods suggested by Stewart and McClenahan "have all been or are in Ihc process of being implemented at S U N Y A , " according 10 the Director o f
Physical Plant Dennis Stevens. These recommendations include the installation o f automatic setback devices on Ihc
thermostats to adjust both summer and winter room
temperatures,
When the buildings are unoccupied, Stewart explained
lhal a computerized system " w i l l set back the thermostat to
the proper temperature for the proper length o f time, and
they arc so inexpensive ihcy will save in energy what they
cost within a year."
Another recommendation by Ihc two rcseaehers to conserve energy is the repairing, instead of replacing, broken
or cracked windows. " W e have replaced 2,000 windows in
the last three to four years," said Stevens.
Additional caulking and wcaiherstripping of the dorms
will be included in next year's modifications, Stevens added. Caulking of Ihc podium deck has been done over the
past live years to keep walci out and heal i n , he noted.
Stevens said Ihc " m a j o r efforts for modification is in the
primary healing system," He added lhal efficiency in
boilers and air exchange units is also important. "Relamping the library with fluorescent bulbs, which arc much more
energy efficient, is another step toward better energy conservation," Slevens noted. More lighl switches have been
added for "finer c o n t r o l " of energy use on the campus, he
said.
According to Slevens these and oilier modifications came
as a result of energy audits at SUNYA in Ihc lasl several
years. What has lo be understood, both Stewart and
Slevens stressed,is lhal while consumption has decreased,
there is Mill an increase in cost.
Slevens said in an October 9 article in the Times Union
lhat "energy conservation over the lasl eight years has
achieved a utility cosl savings of $9 m i l l i o n . " The article
slated thai the " f o u r main boilers uptown can generate 280
million BTU's (British the'rma-unils) of energy per hour,
which translates as roughly 2,014 gallons of oil an h o u r . "
Stevens says Ihc physical planl is pulling a budgcl request
in for tighter temperature controls in the dormitories. It
will be " a $3 million project phased over 2 or 3 years," he
said.
A major accomplishment by the physical planl, said
Slevens, was the Installation of meters in each building.

Podium preachers seek to reach all students
By Mucldl Kun
EDITORIAL ASSISTAm
The leader of Albany State International
Assembly (ASIA), Paul Capobianco, said
that the group is "trying to reach every single
student on campus to see that they have a
clear Interpretation of the Gospel and Jesus
Christ." But despite advertisements appearing since September on radio, cafeteria
tables, blackboards, the podium and In the
ASP, 30 students attended ASIA'S Tuesday
night lecture, "The Bible: Hoax or History."
The lecture, given by senior Mike Fcdele of
1 the Christian group, lasted over two hours
both Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
At the door to receive interested students
were members of ASIA'S Church, The
Capital District International Assembly, handing out leaflets entitled "Historical
Evidences for the Christian Faith."
Fedele, who began his speech by recounting "Why I became a Christian," asserted:
"If you're seeking truth then you will study
the Bible further!"
He also discussed' 'old testament prophecy

ASIA, which is associated with approximately 30 other campus ministries, holds
noontime Bible study classes twice a week.
An average of five to ten students attend each
session, according to Paul Capobianco.
Capobianco, who preaches on the podium

He concluded by saying, "I have nothing in
common with those who think that Christianity Is historically unreliable and have not
seriously examined the evidence."
ASIA is also well-known for its preaching
on the podium. "We're not looking to convert anyone on campus," Capobianco said.
"We want them to know the truth." He
asserted that "we're pro-Israel, pro-Zionism
and anti-an'iscmitism,"

State quad students charged
in theft of lounge furniture
By Betsy Eckel
Seven students charged with stealing a carpet and furniture from State Quad's
Eastman Tower in September received one year's disciplinary probation, in a decision
by Assistant Dean for Student Affairs, John Murphy.
Because the students were not formally placed under arrest, their names were
withheld in accordance with university policy.
In addition to the probation, the students must devote eight hours to community service on Dutch or Indian Quad and pay for the replacement of the carpet because they
are charged with ripping the old one.
The seven claim they did not cut the carpet, but that it was loose when they found it.
Murphy did not want to discuss the reasoning behind his decision but said he felt the
students arc "young and inexperienced freshmen, but should know what is right and
what Is wrong."
The students appeared before a four-member judicial board in the basement of
Eastman Tower Sept. 28. Both University police and the accused made statements.
According to police, at 10 am on Sept. 15, Officers John Canto and Dave Carpenter
found three chairs, a three-piece sectional couch, and a 6-by-18 piece of gold carpet in
suite 2104 of Eastman Tower.
Four of the seven living in the suite were taken to university police headquarters and
questioned, police said, where Ihcy confessed to stealing the items from the penthouse
of Eastman Tower, according to police.
According to the formal notification the students received, all seven were accused of
university property damage, theft of property, possession of stolen property, and
unauthorized entry to university facilities.
Custodians working in the tower noticed a piece of carpet missing from the penthouse, according to Assist. Director of Public Safety, John Henlghan. While doing
routine cleaning, the custodians later spotted the carpet in suite 2104 and notified the
University Police, Henlghan said.
The students said that on Sept. 12 they went up the emergency Tire stairwell to the
penthouse and found the door open.
The boys claim that there were other students in the penthouse, but when no one was
looking, they took the chairs and carpet.
According 10 one of the students, their new acquisitions looked so good In their suite
thin ihcy "Just had to have that couch."

Across perimeter road from the
gym is the Albany Collegiate Interfaith center, otherwise known as
Chapel House, which provides
religious services for Roman
Catholic, Episcopalian, Lutheran,
Jewish, and Southern Baptist worshippers, along with counseling,
and other services for students.
Chapel House was formed in the
late l!)60's by Ihc Intcrfaith Corporation, a group of 21 people
(seven catholics, jews, proleslants)
who were concerned for the
students' need to have a religious
institution to which they could go.
" W e (Intcrfaith Corp.) wanted to
have a place where religion would

COLUMN-
Honoring Dr. King
The recent filibuster in the U.S. Senate, led by Senator
Jesse Helms of North Carolina, concerning legislation supporting a national holiday for the slain civil rights leader
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. has frightened and angered
many people, especially me. On August 2,1083 Ihe House
passed a bill making Ihc January 15 anniversary o f Ihe birth
of ihc Reverend Dr. Marlin Luther King, Jr. a national
holiday to honor " a person who shook Ihe moral con
cience o f this n a t i o n . "
Gerry Rolley
Born January 15, 1929, Dr. King symbolized what m o .
people strive to symbolize. He represented meekness, lovi
generosity, and genuine concern for others. A national
holiday honoring Dr. King will not only promote justice
and world peace, but instill virtuous values in children
whom can follow in the footsteps o f such a gentleman.
Honoring Dr. King will enhance deteriorating racial relations in America. Moreover, never in the history o f
mankind has anyone touched so many hearts and souls as
Ihis scholar. America cannot afford to forget Dr. King. His
philosophy must not be lefl by the wayside. In the nuclear
era in which wc now live, justice, peace, and nonviolence is
the only route to world salvation.
The most imporlant things in his life, he said, were his
constant efforts to serve humanity— to provide the proper
advice to the nation about the war in Vietnam, to feed the
hungry, to clothe the naked, and to visit those in prison. He
felt thai his stands on justice and peace were extremely important and they formed the foundation o f his philosophy.
It is imperative lo point out that the prerequisite for
peace is justice. It is illogical, irrational, irresponsible, and
absurd to believe thai there can be peace without justice. I
totally disagree with those Ph.D's. Ed.D's, J.D's and o t h e r '
D's who claim that peace can be achieved through M X
missiles, 111 bombers, F16 fighters or amphibious tanks. As
Dr. King staled many times, peace cannot be achieved
through force.
i n a hostile world in which we live, peace cannot exist
where grave injustices prevail. It is evident that no one is
safe and secure unless everyone is healthy and " t . You can
never be full as long as someone else is hungry. The sooner
the world citizenry realizes these crucial facts the sooner an
atmosphere of tranquility will evolve. Former SecretaryGeneral of the United Nations, U Thant, said, " I t is not by
the force o f Nature, but by his own will that man finds
himself engaged in a race between building a better world
and destroying an imperfect one. A n d it is in the power o f
man alone to determine how that race will e n d . " So you
see, wc are not only at the mercy o f God for our existence,
but at the mercy o f each other too. Dr. Martin LutherKing,
Jr. strongly advocated this senthncni and should be
honored for his courageous contribution to humanity. Dr,
King believed that since God was the architect o f the
universe, the world bends ultimately toward justice,
righteousness, and mercy, he thought o f evil and injustice
not as ultimate, but as merely episodic.
Many scholars, politicians, educators and laymen alike
contend lhat peace is right around the corner and justice is
highly revered around the world. But how can there be
peace when three fourths o f the human population is poor
and one fourth o f Ihc human population is rich? How can
there be peace when Ihe worlds' natural resources are
allocated shamefully equally? Can peace realyy be achieved
when countries are invaded, terrorized and occupied by external forces, such as Afghanistan and Lebanon? Do you
think peace will come any day soon when human rights
violations are overlooked and often ignored in places like
Soulh Africa and the Philippines? O f course n o l . These injustices and inequalities must be settled amicably or the
word " p e a c e " will only be a catch phrase to be used by
presidential candidates and bored housewives.
It is no secret lhat injustice'prevails in America, just like
anywhere else. Dr. King challenged America lo reexamine
her most cherished beliefs and come l o grips with ihe fact
thai all men arc created equal. He challenged America to
make freedom, justice, goodness, mercy, and love a reality
for all the people. Although some progrces has been made
toward a more just society, too many Americans still suffer
"^
^ *
from malnutrition, insufficient heal, inadequate health
care, inferior education, deplorable living conditions, and
massive unemployment.
As a strong democracy and leader of the free world, it is
not loo laic for the United States to play a vital role in
assuring justice, and world peace. Today, America is in a
unique position to be a model democracy for our neighbors
lo imitate. Unless the image of God be obliterated from the
soul, all men cherish the virtues of liberty, peace and
justice. I f we Stray away from the path outlined by Dr.
Martin Luther King, Jr., it is only a mailer of time before
Ihe streets of New York City, Philadelphia, Boston,
Chicago, Los Angeles and else where will How with blood
like the hills of Arizona and Texas are now Hooded with
water.
I submit then, thai wc honor Dr. Marlin Luther King,
Jr., with a national holiday, and work toward I'ufilling his
dream. Then, as Dr. King said, we will be able lo sing with
true meaning, " M y country, 'tis o f thee, sweel land of
liberty, o f liiec I sing. Land where my fathers died, land of
the Pilgram's pride, from every mountainside, let freedom
ring."

from the monk of the Order of the great God

kingdom of Our Lord. I've been damned 15

triumphant " A H A ! " he jerked his hand from

his hand was a fistful of brightly colored

Unmasking The Myth Of Colie ge Education Today

Are there any serious college students
to be found In America today? And for
that matter, were there ever any In the
first place? To solve that mystery our
research team found Itself In Long
Island, speaking with Charles, a Senior
Consultant at a major computer corporation. Charles Is of middling height,
but with a thin frame and small, In

Charles began his college career In
Cornell University In the early 50's and
finished at Brooklyn Polytechnic with an

alto and tenor) and ukelele, and does
windows.
Despite his impressive list of educa

feel that he was the exception rather,

important. That's what goes on your
resume."
Through Teri we were able to meet
Rob, who graduated from Albany State
a year and a half ago. Rob Is welleducated, with his knowledge ranging
from Monets and Mondrlans to Reagan
and Russians. Rob was easily the most
popular guy in the class of '82; he can
Imitate anyone from Bill Murray to Elvis
Costello.
Throught the yelps, the rolled "r's,"
the whimpers and the assorted laughs
come his thoughts on education. Rob
admits that although he could not have
learned much of what he knows outside
of school, his main venue for learning
was not the classroom.
"My main purpose at college was
education both In and out of classes,
because I realized that to do what I
wanted to do, 1 couldn't learn that much
in classes. I had to go for practical experience. . .1 wanted to be a pearl diver
and, no, I wanted to work on e
magazine and I wanted to write. . .and
if you take literature classes It helps you
to write. However, If you want to learn
production and editing, the best thing to
do Is to work at the ASP, here, and get
more practical experience elsewhere.
How does Rob view college?
'", . .college Is what you make of It. You
know there are people who really hate
going to school and people who really
love It. I'm one of the people who really
•loves It. I don't think that there's too
much of a concentration on grades;
that's an individual thing as well. I didn't
really think about that so much. It
depends, It completely depends, on the
professor. I had some professors that
were uninspiring and others that were
just fantastic. For literature classes It
depends on what you're reading, and
how the professors help you to interpret
things. I'm glad that I didn't have classes
that were required. Inti way, I think it's
very good; I think people should have
to take certain classes, but if I had to do
that, I would have been forced to take
things like math. I took forty minutes of
'math at this university, and alter twenty
minutes I was asleep."
Now that you are working on a
magazine, do you ever miss taking col-'
lege courses?
"There are a load of course that I wish
I could lake, weird courses like Chinese,
which you have to take every single day
or something. If I went back to school, 1
would go back because classes Inspire
me to do things, like a class would Inspire me to read a certain book or
something. 1 don't think I was a very
class educational-oriented student. One
of the least important things seemed to
be going to classes."
So, If classes themselves don't
stimulate Rob, what does? "I guess it's
just a burning curiosity, I'm a naturally
curious person. And I want lo find out,
not because I want to participate In the
conversation al the men's club on Saturday night; that's the last thing I want to
do, It's not my sort of lifestyle. It's just
that I really want to know so that I can
think intelligently about things. Make up
my own mind about things."
We asked Rob If he felt he would be
as educated as he is now if he didn't go
to college. He answered immediately
"No. Part of the reason Is. . .1 would
have missed four yers of observing this
lifestyle. And It's a very Inspiring
lifestyle. And It's an essential lifestyle, I
think. It's a thing you have to experience, it's like somebody saying, 'I
wanna go to Europe.' It's 'I wanna go to
college.'"
Rob then told us how just last night he
met up with a friend who was an accounting major.After just four months
of working as an accountant he decided
it was the last thing he wanted to do.
Now he's "hanging out. He wants to
write music articles."
Rob said that he wishes all students
would ". . .get anything you can out of
everything, not just classes. Be open in
everything, relationships, atmosphere,
visit Albany, do all
those
things. . .Education Is all over the
place."
So there you have It. Chris, Brian,
Dave, Teri, Caryn and Rob. Six very
different college-educated people, all of
whom see education In their own ways.
All of whom help us conclude that there
are education-oriented students In the
United States today.
Please join us next week on In Quest
Of as we track down the famed four- '
teenth tribe of Israel, the sons of
Sewhat, who, for thousands of years,
have travelled the deserts of the
Mideast, doing fine alterations at
reasonable rates, as they wait for the
Messiah to guide them to the holy land,
where they may set up a modest
business and make a nice living.

-Sound and Vision-
The Lords Of Punk
I
s Nothing Sacred?, the second
album from the Lords of the New
Church, Is a redefining and refining
of that band's sound. If you liked the first
album you may feel slightly let down by Is
Nothing Sacred?, but certainly not cheated.
If you didn't like the first album, you will probably like Is Nothing Sacred? better.
Norman Kee
The Lords of the New Church Is a good,
tough Punk/Rock band, something that Is
hard lo come by these days. The union of
Stlv Bator, ex-lead singer of Ihe Dead Boys;
Brian James, original gullar player of The
Damned; Dave Tregunna, ex-basslst for
.Sham 69; and Nicky Turner, former drummer of The Barracudas, was promising. By J
drawing on their previous musical endeavors
and throwing in a good helping of the New
York Dolls and Iggy Pop, the Lords of the
New Church came out with a raunchy album
at about the same time that Men-at-Work
and A Flock of Seagulls seemed to be sleeping with most of the radio programmers In
the country.
Stlv's powerful Iggy-esque vocals and
Brian James' frantic, Johnny Thunder's Influenced guitar playing work together In such
a decadent manner that II only seems natural:
for them to wear all black and avoid sleep
and nutritious food. With the support of
Dave Tregunna and Nicky Turner on bass
and drums, it was manna served on vinyl, a
died-and-gone to punk heaven. Best of all.
these guys weren't even all that stupid. Stlv's
lyrics, although occasionally awfully sexist;
and self-indulgent, were literate and often
rather good. The band's musicianship was
solid and imaginative and their willingness to
throw In an occasional saxaphone and
keyboard was rewarded with an AOR
(Album Oriented Radio) semi-smash, "Open
Your Eyes.".
There latest release, however, displays a
broader, more diverse and, dare I say It?,
more accessible band than Ihe first album.
Keyboards are featured much more prominently and there seems to be less em- •
phasis on Fury and Thunder. Don't get me
wrong, Chris Cross this Isn't, It's (ust less badboyish. Whereas with Ihe first album It]
sounded like the band was listening to a lot
Iggy Pop and the New York Dolls before
recording, it seems as If they listened to the
Rolling Stones' Aftermath
and Nuggets
before making (s Nothing Sacred?.
The
album, especially side one, has overtones
from mid 60's A M psychedelic pop. The
cover of the Grassroot's "Live For Today" Is
an example of this. Produced by Todd Rundgren, who also produced the New York
Dolls debut album, the song seems to have
more keyboards than guitars, which helps It
obtain that sing-song psychedelic feel.
"Dance With M e , " co-written by Bators and
James as are most of the originals, also has
the same sort of sound.
In a different vein, "Johnny T o o Bad" Is
ska-like, with trebley chlng-a-ching-a guitars
and Interjecting horns. The story of a kid
gone bad In the big city, "Johnny Too Bad"
Is In a new muslclal territory for The Lords of
the New Church. Also In a new direction Is
"Don't Worry Children." Complete with a
heavy duty horn section, this song almost
sounds like it could be on Elvis Costello's
Puncfi the Clock. This R 'n' B influenced
song says not to worry If things don't make
sense; that's the way it was Intended. Just
j h a n g on to your Integrity and everything will
be A-O.K.
Two songs on side one arc slower and a
bit more tender than most Lords of the New
Church songs. "Bad Timing" has Stlv telling
the story of a man who didn't respond to a
woman's needs and how he has trouble after
her resulting suicide. Stlv's vocals carry the
emotions of the song over a Joy Division
style bass and drum line. "The Night Is Calling" is a slower, somewhat pretty song singing the praises of the night and the safety and
the confessional quality of it.
Side two, with exception of "Live For Today" Is more similar to the Lords of the New
Church's first album than Is side one. The
first song of the side, and perhaps my
favorite song of Ihe album, is "Black
Girl/White Girl." The Introduction reminds
me quite a bit of "Going lo a G o - G o , "
especially of the Rolling Stones' version.
Over Keef-lsh guitar and solid-rock bass and
drums, we hear about 'the city' and the
pleasures It hold lor Black and While
Women and visa-versa.
Another highlight from side two Is "Partners In Crime." A fairly short song, It Is very
reminisent of the style of the first album, Stlv
giving a powerful vocal performance and
Brian James tossing In lots of bent-string fills.
It's probably the simplest or most straight forward song on Ihe album and is notlcable and
noteable because of lhat fact.
Is Nothing Sacred? Is a step forward for
the Lords of the New Church. It Is more accessible and diverse than the first album and
It shows a certain security thai the band
seems to have gained from experience. II
has taken the good elements of punk lhat the
band has Inherited and then made It bigger,
betterand wiser. It Is worth giving your ears a
chance to witness this album.

"They," of course, are the selfcontained, all-in-one stereo cassette/radios
which people can take just about anywhere
they go. Most of the lime these boxes can be
heard blaring upbeat, danceable music.
Often this music Is "rap" style, with the
vocalist rapidly and very rhymthically singing
a number of rhyming verses, usually telling a
sory. This brings us to the group WhamlU.K.
Their recently released album Fantastic Includes five songs which are In the rap style.

Furious Five) are stuck In my brain forever.
But, before hearing WhamlU.K., I had
decided that rap was repetitive, monotonous
iind inevitably boring. As a rapper might put
II, though, "When It came to rap, lhat boy
ivas wrong, But now he's slngln' a different
kong." After listening to Fantastic, I realized
that the bad rap I had put on rap wasn't
justified. The music of WhamlU.K. changed
ny mind.
The song "Bad Boys" opens the album
and geU you dancing quite rap-idly. Writer,
producer and lead vocalist George Michael
ells us about a boy who rebels against his
parents' plans for him, and winds up with the
rBad Blys." Like all the songs on Fantastic,
the music to this one Is excellent. Dominated
|Jjy Ihe bass line, the song also features some
pood electric guitar work by Robert Ahwal
hnd Andrew Rldgeley. The vocals top off Ihe
p o n g , with Michael's voice ranging from
'deep male to high female (as when he sings,
"Girls like me, always seem to be you . . . " ) .
'
"Can't you see I'm ready to dance?"
Michael asks In " A Ray of Sunshine." This
/ s o n g won't leave you asking the same. Once
again supported by an Infectious bass line
which won't let you sit still, this song Is a
'musical call to hit the dance floor. A strength
.. of WhamlU.K. is their use of horns. " A Ray
.^jof Sunshine" features horns which em-
phasize the high points of the music very effectively.
WhamlU.K. hasn't Ignored social commentary on Fantastic. The commentary Is
most pointed In the song "Wham Rap (Enjoy
What Y o u Do)". The message of the song Is
that a man Is a man, "job or no Job." Insead
of pitying the unemployed, songwriters
Michael and Rldgeley suggest that the jobless
are better off without Jobs. "I may not have a
job, but I have a good time." The song conjures up an Image of ten or twenty people
hanging out, clapping lo the music, and really enjoying life.

the song when the singer asks, "Do you want
to work?" to which a crowd replies, " N o ! "
"Are you gonna have fun?" "Yeah!" Yeah,

The most interesting song on the album,
which shows the band's diversity, is "Club
Troplcana." after an opening with cricket'
sound effects which lead nicely Into the
song, we're presented with an unexpected
Latin beat. Following the funk songs on side

Rockers Revenge. The Clash covered
another lune from Ihe album, "Police on my

After releasing his next album, Do You

— lo Ihe Island of Barbados.
A conflict on the Island between wealthy
estate owners and locals selling corals and*
other tropical wares on the beach, led Grant
lo write>"Jack (Dah Beach Is Mine)," a soulcalypso tune which sold 30,000 copies in
Barbados. That means that one in eight people In Barbados went out and bought the
record. If the same phenomena were to occur in the United States, it would result in the
sale of over 33 million records. It Is no
wonder that Grant became a national figure
there. He is so well known that mail is

-Music Scene-
Grant was born In Guyana, a small country on the Caribbean coast of South America
whose Jungles and prlmatlve tribes make It a
National Geographic favorite, but moved
with his family to London when he was
twelve years old. His father had been a musician, and Eddy began taking trumpet lessons^
at the age of six. In London, Grant
developed his own musical taste. He wanted
to take up the guitar and experiment with the
rStb and rock and roll that were popular In
England at that time. When his father would
not agree, Grant built his own guitar In

message. Behind the danceable beat and the

| the Editor:
Regarding your letter in the October 7, 1983 edition of
ASP, It is obvious to mc that there is a great
^understanding o f the rules and policies of the A M I A .
•crcforc, I felt that it is my responsibility to clarify a few
[the discrepancies in your letter. To begin with, I must
Vss the fact that the A M I A Council did not recently inl u l c a mandatory forfeiture to all teams for games played
i h o u l proper signatures on roster sheets, this has always
I n our policy, but only In the case o f it being brought to
; intention, i.e. the opposing team protesting the game,
fcwevcr, toward the end o f last semester, the A M I A
|uncil passed a motion that said we would actively seek
I illegal rosters and this new policy was properly posted
[ t h e A M I A display case located in the Campus Center,
so, all team captains were informed of this new proBurc at Ihe Softball Captains Meeting prior to the open) of the Fall 1983 Softball season.
In response to the statement that in previous seasons
Iters were available at " o n e o f the first couple of games
Insure proper signatures and complete rosters" I feel it is
rcssary to inform you that for the last three years it has
; been the policy o f Ihe A M I A to bring rosters to any
hes, rather, it has been left up to the captain to insure
i t the proper amount o f signatures were on his roster
l o r to his teams first game. Additionally, it is the A M I A ' s
Uicy that teams arc permitted to add players to their
Iter up until their third game, but that does not mean that
| y can play a game with less than the required amount o f
natures on their roster. (Each team must have at least
ht players to play a game.) The reason why this policy Is
> vehemently enforced is because each player's signature
ves as a medical waiver and a possible protection against
§al action for the A M I A .
p i n reviewing your letter, it becomes obvious to me that
you do not have a firm and proper knowledge of the rules
and policies of the A M I A , whether it be soflball or any
other sport. What 1 can suggest is that you, and perhaps the
other 23 teams you speak of, take a little time out to read
the rules o f the A M I A which are handed out at the Captain's meetings of each sport sponsoredby the A M I A , and
keep abreast o f the changes in A M I A policy by way o f the
A M I A - W I R A display case. I f there is still some
misunderstanding as to the interpretation of the rules,
please feel free to stop by the Intramural Office located on
the first floor o f the Gym or come to any A M I A Council
mtclings which arc held every Thursday night at 6:30p.m.

Not so comic strips
T o Ihe editor:
For the past few weeks, readers of the ASP have been
subjected to a comic strip by R.A. Hayes. These strips have
centered attention around " l o o n i e s " , "looncy b i n s " , and
" m e n in white jackets", respectively, in the October 3rd,
7th, and I l t h issues of Ihe ASPA have worked with the
menially impaired and'.physically disabled since I was a
senior in high school. I am now a senior at Albany and have
found that discriminaion againsl both groups has not
diminished in the least bit.
•' I feel that M r . Hayes' comic strips are tasteless examples
Of this discrimination and feel that the ASP should
reevaluate their position on humorless, discriminatory
Aspects
comic strips, such as " O t i s " , which insist on using the mentally impaired as subject matter. I f M r . Hayes feels that
poking fun at the mentally impaired is acceptable,' I suppose that we can expect more comic strips from him which
use derogatory terms. May I remind you that these strips
compound and perpetuate the Ideas and prejudices that
most people have by turning these groups into subjects o f
humor.
1 also feci that if Mr. Hayes' creativity docs not allow
him to find suitable subject matter for his comic strips, then
he should seriously reconsider drawing comic strips for the
ASP,

Issue isn't simple
To the Editor!
I would like to settle this ROTC question once and for
all. I will address myself to the October I lth letter entitled
"Congratulations due" by David Janowcr.
Mr. Janowcr states that the issue seems a simple one.
However it is quite evident from his article that he has absolutely no idea what the issue is.
Mr. Janowcr, we In America live in a democratic society,
that means we elect officials who make the public policy
and laws that govern our society. The law states that
homosexuals arc barred from service in the A r m y , Navy,
Air Force, Marines, C I A , and the NSA. That Is a congressional law. People who wish to test the law bring their cases
to the Supreme Court. In every case that has come before it
the Supreme Court has upheld the law.
Now Mr. Janowcr, you would have us abandon public
policy and substitute it by your own private policy. You
would have us ignore the laws made by officials elected by
the democratic process and in turn comply with your own
private laws that would remove ROTC from our campus,
I sinccrly wish that it wasn't necessary to explain the
democratic process to a member o f the university faculty,
but by your letter you have demonstrated that you don't
know how it works. So I will continue.
I f you feci that this law is unjust then you change it by
petitioning your elected officials. You have 16,000 students
o f voting age that go to this school, Mr. Janowcr. Why
don't you start a letter or pelititon drive to your congressman. That, Mr. Janowcr, is how we change laws, not
by ignoring them and substituting your own.
— Jonathan A . Newman
Democracy reigns
To Ihe Editor:
As (he guardian of the freshman class, I feel it is my
responsibility to respond to Mr. Steve Heller's letter of
Tuesday, October I I , 1983.
I am sorry that Mr. Heller finds it "distressing" that the
President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer are
elected within Ihe Class Council consisting of fifteen
university-wide elected students, and that he further is in
disagreement because he feels that the freshman class as an
entity does not have influence over the leadership of their
class. However, Mr, Heller is, in my opinion, worrying over
nothing. Does he not respect his peers enough in as much
that they will choose the most competent fifteen representatives, who in turn will elect a competent executive
branch?
Mr. Heller mentions an appointed "steering committee"
that was "empowered with writing a constitution." That
group of people did not " w r i t e " a constitution, but simply

drafted a version thai will be presented to the elected Class
Council. They in turn will either accept it as drafted, or
revise it to their satisfaction and to the satisfaction o f their
constituency that they were elected to represent.
The steering committee did not take complete control of
the class, but rather did what they thought was equitable at
the time. The students at the general interest meeting were
presented with all relevant facts i.e.: what happened last
year with the class of 1984. They then discussed all
ramifications o f their options, and then democratically
decided for an " i n council election." Furthermore, they
still have the option o f changing their decision by an
amendment to the drafted constitution at the appropriate
meeting.
M r . Heller is also confused to the fact that before any
class expenditure the class council must vote on the expenditure. Furthermore, as it stands now, a person may
achieve voting rights on the class council by attending three
consecutive meetings. The class council is not an elitist
body, but rather allows anyone who attends (he regular
meetings to voice their opinions and suggestions.
If Mr. Heller or anyone else has any questions about the
Freshman class they may feel free to contact me at the Student Association office.

President Class of 1984
Equal access
To Ihe Editor:
I have read with inlcrcst the articles concerning ROTC
and the equal access policy here at SUNYA. Many o f the
individuals who comment on this issue seem unaware o f the
basic facts. I f one looks closely, ROTC docs not appear to
be in violation o f the equal access policy.
First, let me be bold enough to assert that ROTC is not a
S U N Y A course, and therefore docs not fall under the equal
access policy, unless this policy is interpreted in a manner
which I believe was not Intended. To enter Army ROTC,
MSI1I or MSIV (the courses fostering the healed debate)
one must cross-enroll at R P I . The main purpose o f the Army ROTC extension (ycs-"extcnslon") at S U N Y A is to
save the S U N Y A cadet from commuting to RPI for his or
her military science classes. Further proof that Army
ROTC is not a S U N Y A course comes from the S U N Y A
83-84 undergraduate bulletin, where it is staled (p.19)
"Cross-rcgislrntion enrollments must be In courses not
available from Ihe University's curriculum."
I f Ihe A r m y R O T C extension office Is eliminated from
S U N Y A , this will serve no purpose. SUNYA students will
slill be able to cross-enroll al R l ' l , for Army, Navy, or Air
Force ROTC (some S U N Y A students commute for Naval
and Air Force programs now) while admitted homosexuals
here al S U N Y A would slill nol he allowed access lo crossregister for these courses, exactly Ihe situation that exists
with the Army ROTC extension on campus!
O f course you could al tempi lo eliminate the crossenrollment for ROTC courses completely bul I personally
would consider this a violation of my own (and many
01 hers') rights lo register for ROTC, This presents a dilemma lo Ihosc who oppose (lie Army ROTC extension. Either
remove it and serve no purpose, or eliminate ROTC crossregistration, which would violate the rights of countless
people.
Mr. Janowcr in his I d l e r lo Ihe ASPot the I l t h o f October slates, " O u r equal access policy makes a strong statement that we believe in something, that no one may be
discriminated against for reasons not having to do with
their ability to perform academically." I f Mr. Janowcr had
done his homework, he would find that the handicapped
. and people wilh other medical problems may not be commissioned in the miliiuryland therefore arc not eligible for
ROTC). Yet, we hear little, if anything, from these individuals about equal access violations. (I am not equating
gays to the handicapped.)
What it boils down to is this: Does the SUNYA policy include cross-enrollment? Aren't schools like RPI already
obligated to equal access by federal law, even though
federal law concerning the military prohibits gays? I f we
consider the last question, we see that the contradiction is at
the federal level, as has been asserted previously.

While the 72 year old Reagan has
steadfastly refused to state publicly
whc(hcr he will run for second
term, Laxalt took up the question
of when the president made his
decision.
"Consciously ... I think probably from almost the beginning
it's been apparent to him as well as
all of us that this job that he's
assumed cannot be effectively done
in four years," the senator said, adding: "He's probably focused on It
very actively in the last few days."
Reagan has frequently said that
he was avoiding a declaration of his
campaign intentions because a formal announcement would cast all
his actions in a politial light.
Laxalt, who repeated the president's reasoning on Thursday,
stated: "I think that his position in
delaying his final announcement
until after Congress adjourns is entirely appropriate.

Dave Johnson named
Mets' manager for 1984
Philadelphia, Pa.
(AP) The New York Mets reached
into their farm system today and
named Dave Johnson as their new
manager. Johnson, who managed
the National League baseball club's
Tidewater farm team lb the Little
World Scries title this season, was
to be introduced at a noon news
conference at World Series headquarters here.
"I think it's just super he got the
job," said Darryl Strawberry, the
Mets rookie outfielder who slammed 26 home runs and drove in 74
runs this year. "He knows most of
the players and hopefully he can
come to spring training well
prepared. He's the type of manager
that brings out the best in a player,
and that's what you need with a
young player.
"One great thing about Johnson
is the way he sticks by a player."
A former inficldcr who spent 13
seasons in the major leagues with
Baltimore,
Atlanta
and
Philadelphia, Johnson, 40, replaces
Frank Howard, who was told on
the final day of the regular season
that he would not return as
manager.
Howard, who took over as interim manager in June when George
Bamberger resigned, led the Mets to
68 victories, the most since 1976,
although the team finished in last
place in the NL East for the fifth
time in seven years.
Howard is expected to remain
with the Mets as first base coach,
hut it was not known whether the
Mets will retain their other coaches
- Bill Monbouquctte, Bobby Valentine and Gene Dusan.
During his playing career,
Johnson played in four World
Scries with Baltimore and was picked for three All-Star Games, two
while he was with Baltimore and
one while he was with Atlanta. He
finished his playing career with a
.261 baiting average, 136 home runs
and 609 runs batted in.
He has been in the Mels organization for three years. In 1981, he
managed the Mets' AA affiliate in
Jackson, Miss., and spent the 1982
season as a roving minor league Instructor.

This conversation in the Albany men's tennis team's
llockcrroom Tuesday set the tone for Ihc afternoon's
•match: Captain Dave Ulrich said to Coach Jim ScrIbalik, "Coach we're gonna win today," lo which (he
jcoach responded, "I didn't drive all the way to Burlington (Vermont) to lose."
A confident attitude like that, and the fact that the
Danes were still riding a high from their SUNYAC
bhamplonship enabled the Albany Stale men's tennis
(cam to stun the Division I University of Vermont in a
i-3 victory al Vermont's beautiful Indoor facility.
Albany took four out of Ihc six singles matches and
|wo out of the three doubles matches from the Great
Dane Classic Champions.
Ulrich, in what Serbalik called, "The highest caliber
bf tennis 1 have seen this year," bcal reigning ECAC
'number one singles champion, Mike Duffy,

iuperb showing in the SUNYACs, was stopped by
Rich Greene 6-3, 6-1. Albany's number six man Mark
Banders was taken in straight sets by Ross Abrnms 6-4,
P-4.
As for Ihc doubles, the number one doubles leum of
Ulrich and Grossman revenged their Great Dane
Classic defeat to Duffy und Fayroian by healing them
jBS-2, 7-6. The number Iwo doubles pair of Schmltz. and
Karen didn't fare as well, dropping their match 6-2,
4-6,6-1.
To finish off the match on an up note the Danes
number three doubles team of Eisenberg and Dave
Fcinerman defeated Green and Abrairuj 3-6, 7-6, 6-3.
A very emphatic Schmltz said after Ihc match, "We
nuked them," which is recognized lo all Great Dane
tennis fans as the team's motto. Schmitz also added
"Everybody played great. We knew how good Vermont is so we were up for them. Our confidence Is
very high now, if we were playing Army right now I
think we would beat them."Army is the only team Ihis
year that has beaten Albany is a dual meet. The Division I Army squad did not beat the bancs very easily
though, many of the malchcs had to go to decisive
third sets.
Coach Serbalik, who was proud of his team's exceptional showing against the Division 1 school, commented, "The team's intensity level was still high from
last weekend (the SUNYACs), and there was added incentive because this is the learn that beat them in the
Great Dane. 1 wouldn't say 1 was surprised but I am
certainly pleased. I just hope they can stay up for one
more."
The "one more" the coach was referring lo is the
team's Inst duel meet of the season.
The match Is against the University of Massachusett s , who "has a history of being tough," added Serbalik.

Danes seek .500 mark in clash with Dragons
Dane quarterback Mike Milano put it best
after Albany's upset victory over Southern
Connecticut last week when he said, "We're
a new team," which simply was a reference to
the club's new confident outlook on Ihe rest
of the season.
Tomorrow afternoon, Ihe visiling Albany
State football learn will try to climb to the
.500 mark by beating a .500 team, Cortland
Slate (3-3).
The 2-3 Danes are coming off their finest
offensive output of the season, scoring 22
points against a tough Division II school in
Southern Connecticut.
Against Cortland, Ihc Danes will be going
up againsl a defense quite weaker than others
they've met this season, which include the
likes of top ranked Union and Hofstra. Cortland's defense has allowed an average of 331
yards per game, which should have Dane
coach Bob Ford smiling.
No matter how overused the expression is,
the Danes gained a large amount of confidence in the offense's ability to put points
on the board. This confidence not only has
spread throughout the offense, but to Ihc
defense as well, according to Ford.
"The defense has battled all season to hold
on hoping the offense can generate
something and get on the scoreboard. There
was naturally a tendency for them to let
down."
Last week was a different story as the
Danes led throughout. "Wc finally had a
lead to protect," said linebacker Ed
Eastman. "There was no letdown."
Tomorrow afternoon, the Danes, defense
will have one thing on their minds, stopping
Cortland's fullback Dave Cook, whose 1,469
career rushing yardage puts him second on
the Red Dragons' all-time rushing list.
Last week the Danes were successful in
shutting down the Owls' fine pair of running
backs, Kerry Taylor and Dave Schmidt,
holding them to 23 and 62 yards rushing,
respectively. They are looking for more of
the same tomorrow.
The Danes would want nothing more than
to make Red Dragon freshman quarterback
Paul Crazioplone put the ball In the air.

Presbie's goal in overtime edges Siena, 1-0
By Marc Berman

"*"
Tlhan Presbie's goal at 2:15 of the second
overtime gave the Albany State men's soccer
team a hard-fought 1-0 win over Siena College on University Field Wednesday afternoon.
Presbie's goal, his sixth of the season,
broke a scoreless deadlock that was contested
on a soggy field and through a steady rain, as
both teams found it very difficult to gel scoring opportunities.
"Wc survived," commented Albany Head
Coach Bill Schicffclin following his team's
fourth win of the year to go with five losses.
"We still have to play with more intensity
and be more hungry to score goals."
Presbie got his goal off a fine feed from
midfielder Leslie Severe, who received the
ball from Presbie and sent It back to him
streaking in on the left wing. He was all by
himself against goalkeeper Rob Lynch, and
he fired a shot into the lower lefthand corner.
"Leslie gave me the ball back. 1 brought it
to Ihc side, and it was just me and the goalie.
There was no way I couldn't score," Presbie
said after the game.
In what has become a tradition In the
Albany-Siena soccer rivalry, the game
featured some rough and chippy pluy with a
number of yellow card cautions handed out.
"They don't have much talent. They more
or less just try and run over you," commented defender Scott Cohen. "Their style
is tough play."
Presbie agreed, saying, "It was really a
rough game. Every time 1 went on a break
they took me out."
The first half saw very little action offensively as neither team seemed to be able to
sustain much pressure. Albany did have one
excellent chance to score in Ihc 22nd minute
when left wing Michael Williams crossed the

half by senior Mark Galuski. Both punters
seern_ed to have their problems, but Ford will
stick with the youngster. In Piersimoni, the
Danes get the benefit of a punter who kicks
farther and higher but lacks experience.
Offensively, the Danes will try to
reproduce, the performance that enabled
them to gain over 300 yards last week. The
Danes are looking to come up with Ihe big
plays that paced them over the Owls, a
75-yard pass thrown by wide receiver Bob

pass caught by Pete McGrath.
"Historically, we've always come up with
the big play," said Ford. "Last week wc
came up with those types of plays but wc
didn't really move the football by grinding it
out. But, I'll take the big plays."
Even with the problems with the offensive
line, the Danes arc still expecting to put up
enough points on the board that would
enable them to come back to Albany next
Saturday with a .500 record. "Once you start
thinking about losing, you're going to lose,"
said Ford.

Women 'take back the night'
in march through Albany
By Shriluh R. Sable
Women walked in safely in some of ihc most shadowy
areas in Albany Saturday night, when more than 400 joined
lo "lake back the night."
The rally began at 7 p.m. on Ihc Capitol steps and was
followed by a march from the sleps, wesi on Slate Street,
through Washington Park, and then back toward the Capitol.
Men were asked lo wnlch the children, hand out pamphlets, and sell l-shirts. They cooperated and respected the
women's requests lo march alone.
As women marched through Ihc streets of Albany, Ihcy
shouted "Women Unite, Take Hack the Night," "No more
silence, No more violence," "Gay, Straight, Black and
While, All women Take Hack Ihe Night."
Many of the women were disappointed that I hey could
nol march in ihc streets and that they were confined lo the
sidewalks. Albany resident Karen Barclay wondered, "If all
Ihe law enforcement agencies are supposed lo be supporting
us, then why haven't the police roped off Ihe streets lor us
to march?" One officer explained, "You ladies arc walking
the wrong way on a one wny street and lhal made il impossible for Ihc police lo properly escort the march through
Ihc streets."
Al the close of Ihe march, on the Capitol steps, there was
a participatory self-defense demonstration, Tips for walking safely at night were suggeslcd; try nol to walk alone, try
lo walk in well lii areas, and if someone is following you
look for an unlocked car or go into the first public
establishment you can find.
Opening Ihe rally, Dcbra Dcllor, a member of ihe
Albany County Rape Crisis Center, said, "Wc arc here lo
let people know that rape exists and lhal wc want il slopped. We want safely. We want lo be free of fear when walking the streets alone al night."
Carlo DiGirolomo, Director of the N.Y. Slate Commission on Domestic Violence, informed Ihc crowd of some '
figures and slatistics about rape. "Forty thousand women
will be victims of rape by their husbands and lovers this
year alone, but nothing will be done about it lawfully
because according to Ihe court system there is no such crime
as marital rape," said DiGirolomo. "Children are Ihe
highest risk. Forty-two pcrccnl of the females raped or
assaulted each year are between two and fourteen years
old," she added. DiGirolomo's point was that if Ihc courts
and legislators don't starl to treat rape as a more serious
problem then women will be victims of rape and victims of
unfair courl proceedings, as well.
"The patriarchy must be ended," said DiGirolomo, who
is a victim of sexual assault and battering by her husband.
Saratoga Springs Attorney Nancy Burning conccntralcd
her speech on Ihc idea that only community groups could
help to change Ihc ways In which Ihe issues are viewed in Ihe
courl systems. "People can apply pressure to change the
views on rape, demand laws and make sure Ihcy are
enacted. Legislators and judges must realize what goes on
and change the system so thai women are Ircatcd fairly and
rapists gel what Ihey deserve," asserted Bunlin.
Pal Donovan, a slate Iroopcr and a former first investigator for Ihc Albany County District Attorney sex offense unit, informed Ihc crowd of a program set up in
January of I978. Sol Grccnberg of Albany County received
funding, she explained, for prosecution of rapists and programs for the rape victims. Women who arc raped can be
Ircatcd by professional help as soon as Ihcy enter the
hospital. Victims will be leaded lo by doctors and
psychologists. They have also been alleviating the trauma
of having Ihc rape victims go through public hearings.
The only problem Ihe marchers experienced occurred
when ihcy slopped In'lhc park lo rest and use the facilities.
The care laker held up Ihc procession because lie didn't
knuw what il was all about and lie was afraid there would
be a riot or violence. "I had no idea you were coming. My
boss never said a word so I just couldn't let you in without
confirmation from my boss," the caretaker explained. The
situation was worked out and the women continued to
inarch back to Ihc Capitol sleps.
Poet Oric Thyia read some of her work iwiee during trurally. Flrsl she recited "The Voice of Ihc Owl Rises Within
Me," which revealed the injurious psychological effects
lhal sexual assault has on women. The second, "Snqil Explains Herself," was a view on Ihc degradation of women
in all fields.
Reverend Minnie Burns of the Saratoga Universal Baptist Temple referred lo Ihe Bible where il says lhal a rapisl
should be sloned lo death. She explained lhal she was nol
advocating death for all rapists, just a more serious treatment of rapists, "Rapists should get what Ihcy deserve,"
site said. "If officials would put Ihc rapist away and give
hint what he deserves, we would have peace and women
could walk tall and do what ihcy are supposed to do; Insoft, be sweet, be caring, be fruitful and multiply," Hums
contended.
.After the march, a song entitled Fighl lluck, written by
Holly Near, was performed by Tcrrl Robcn. This was an
action dial also drew cheers and applause from ihe remaining crowd.
Albany County Rape Crisis Center Director, Judith Condo made a few points in her closing statements, "Violence
in today's society is loo glorified and loo accepted. If litis is
not changed, along with the constant degradation of
women, wc will never be free to walk al night safely." Condo also said lhal she has received a proclamation, from
County Executive James Coyne, making Oct. 12-18 Ihc
traditional Rape Prevention Week. Condo proudly said,
"Albany can now be recognized as the leader, from its action past and present, in eradicating rape and sexual
violence against women."
The Albany Rape Crisis Center and Rape Crisis Centers
in Ihc surrounding areas hope actions such as "Take Back
the Night," will help lo change the way women arc viewed
in society, educate society about rape and its effects, influence politicians lo recognize Ihc problems and take actions lo correct them, and above all eradicate rape.
A Trulh Walkathon on Saturday, Oct. 29 at 7 a.m. is
another event slated lo make violence againsl women a
more disecrnablc problem among society, and Ihc judicial
system.

SA officials propose
bill to get rid of
expensive A V system
By Nicole Keys
STAFF H-HITFR
A bill scheduled lo be voted on al Wednesday's Central
Council mccling would sell tens of thousands of dollars
worth of audio-visual equipment purchased by Student
Association over the pasl three years.
The resolution is being proposed by SA officials because
ihe system — originally Intended lo save money — is not
cost-effective, officials said.
The bill's sponsors include SA President Rich Schaffer.
Vice President Jeff Schneider, Controller Adam Barsky
Central Council Chair Bob Hclbock and Vice Chair Lisa
Kerr.
A memorandum prepared by Schneider earlier this year
lhal reviewed Ihc audio-visual system's productivity stated
lhal a $17,000 annual income was estimated.
Groundwork for ihe system was laid in Ihe summer of
1981 by thcn-SA Vice President Woody Popper and Mike
Slarr, said Schneider.
Il was begun witli an appropriation of $22,755. Expenditures increased lo $61,296.42 in 1981-82 and $41,095.06
in 1982-83. Additional labor eosls totalling $6,513.95 were
not included in those appropriations. "Annual revenue fell
short of projections over a two year span. SA-AV (audiovisual) does nol save the organization money." said Barsky.
The system's purpose was lo "increase group programming, so groups could do more shows," Popper said.
"The original purchases for audio-visual were for stateof-the-art material to prepare for an expansion to a large
system," said Sclieneider iu the memorandum. He added
that the ihc system was intended lo pay Itself off within two
years, with a $8,51X1 savings In sound systems costs afterwards.
Officials cited several reasons why ihe audio-visual
system cost so much and why labor costs were iiul
budgeted.
Barsky said lhal demand lot the system was less than
anticipated. "Before, quads would pay for a $5(X) band,
plus rent lights and equipment, Now they're gelling disc
jockeys for $175 who carry Iheir own equipment," he suid.
Schneider said lhal Popper "decided to increase Ihe AV
department into a professional type of unit and continued
to buy equipment without regard to any type of budget.
They tried lo gel il too big too fast,"
But Popper contends thai Ihe purchases of AV equipment was approved by Central Council al the summer
