UCB signs Pretenders for 'Mayfest' By Maria Carlino The Prelenders and Grand Master Flash will perform at Celebration '84, "barring any unforeseen difficulties,'.' according to University Concert Board President Doug Kahan. The opening band has not yet been scheduled, Kahan said. Celebration, also known as " M a y f e s t , " will be held Saturday, May 5 on the grounds between Dutch and Indian Quads, the Campus Cenlcr, and the G y m . The Pretenders are slated to receive $40,000, Grand Master Flash will be paid about $5,000 and Ihc Ihird band selected will be offered no more than $5,000, Kahan said. Artists under consideration include The Waitresses, Yellow M a n , Wang Chung, Roger McGuinn, Rick Derringer, the Jim Carole band, N R B Q , Stompcrs, Jeff I.orbcr and Paul Young. Tickets, limited l o 13,000, will be sold on a first come first serve basis. Kahan urged students to buy their tickets early since UCB might sell out. Tickets, on sale in CC343 beginning Tuesday, A p r i l 24, will be $8 for the first ticket per tax slicker. T w o additional tickets on Ihe tax sticker may be purchased al $12 each, he said. Provided that the event is not sold out, tickets will be available for $15 on the day o f the show, he added. " C o m e 'Celebration' lime the process o f picking bands is one that proposes a problem every year," said Kahan. UCB involves approximately 100 members who share i n the decision making process. The board, Kahan said, tries l o recruit bands Ihai will appeal to the majority o f the students. The availability o f currently louring bands, their willingness l o play outdoors, and play along with oilier bands instead o f headlining solo, all strongly influence UCB's decision making process, he said. U A S ( U n i v e r s i t y A u x i l i a r y Services) sponsored ' refreshments such as beer, soda, hoidogs, and brownies will be included in the admissions price and provided throughout the day, Kahan said. Mayfest will be held rain or shine, according l o Kahan, who added that an exception to this would be an electrieal storm. In the event o f rain, UCB has made arrangements for the bands to play under a covered slagc. However, Kahan said, students will have l o fend f o r themselves. Last year U2, David Johansen, arid Robert Hazard performed al Mayfest. U2 received $15,000, Johansen and Hazard were each paid $4,000. Mayfest is sponsored by U C B . SUNYA's fountains arc traditionally turned on Ihc day before Mayfest. Thousands o f students crowd the podium l o .witness Ihc event. In Ihc past, festivities have included a brief ceremony in which S U N Y A President Vincent O'Leary tosses in the first frisbee o f the season. I 1 'Rusty' debut for netwomen HNtrtH The N.Y. slate legislature has added 290 positions l o the SUNY system, restoring a small fraction o f the 1,100 jobs cut in last year's budget. Student leaders arc not, according to Mike Danahy, communications director for Sludcnt Association for Ihe State University (SASU), satisfied wilh these additions, as Ihc SUNY system has losi 4413 positions over Ihc lasl nine years, and the increase will nol bring the number o f SUNY faculty and staff lo ihc level ihcy were before last year's cuts. This will be the first lime in nine years ihai SUNY schools will gain (acuity and staff in non-hospital positions.

Schaffcr said Ihe legislature's proposal could mean up to 35 additional positions for S U N Y A , to be filled al the d i s c r e t i o n o f S U N Y A President Vincent O'l.eary. The additional personnel should eliminate any need for a bus fee during the upcoming year, Schal'fcr said. The bus service was originally slated i o lose some staff, causing administrators to seriously consider the need for a bus fee in order lo maintain service. What has been passed by the legislature in place o f C u o m o ' s original recommendation, Danahy contended, is a victory f o r students. There will be no tuition increase this year, although there 290 Positions Restored 1963-84 1984-85 Budget Budget 0R*PH BV PATRICIA MITCHELL will be a $150 dollar dorm increase. According l o Assemblyman Mark Allan Siegal, head o f Ihe Assembly higher educaiion committee, Cuomo advocates making Ihe cost o f unending a SUNY school high enough so thai students looking for a cheaper allernalivc to a private in slilulion will be less likely l o choose a SUNY school. Siegal also criticized Cuomo, saying thai ihc Governor, il given his way, would increase SUNY tuition by $2000 dollar' over a lour year period. Currently under debale, Danahy said, is ihc definition o l sialc subsidization o f higher education. Cuomo believes, according lo Danahy, Ihai the stale pays the majority o f a SUNY studcnl's cost o f living on campus and Ihai students should pay a grealer share. SASU officials argue Ihai in defining stale subsidization, the cosisfor services such n grounds maintenance, public safety, residential life staff, and similar deparliiienis should nol be included in calculations. Even wilh Cuomo's $150 dollar dorm increase, SASU officials will be pleased i f Ihe current debate among government officials yields a favorable definition o f state subsidization, Danahy explained. Also budgeted by Ihc legislature is $13 million dollars in assistance for community colleges that offer business and technical programs, Danahy said.

Rain forced Ihe Alhaiiy-Skidmorc opening malchup indoors and |lic style o f play reverted from a Ihrce sel outdoor match to a ion game pro set. The result; a 7-2 " r u s t y " loss in Saraloga.

II was not a good day lor liie Dane nelwomen. Ellen Yun chalked up ihe fourth singles loss as Carolyn Spcllman made easy work o f her by a score oi IO-I. There were few bright spots in this lough showing. Captain .loan Phillips played well in her 10-5 victory over Carolyn Spcllman and freshman Gcri Chiodo chalked up her first Albany victory with a 10-6 win over Barb Schwarz. Ihc three doubles matches would not be part o f a highlight film. The top Dane duo o f llarlslcin and Phillips tied up the Skidmore tandem o f Alligcr and Fcllon until a 7-2 liebreaker loss sent litem home dejected. Another possible victory slipped away as the duo of Newlingcr and Luitipton handed second doubles Isaacs and Tishler a 10-6 loss. Rounding out Ihe day was a 6-2 loss from Yun and Cheung al the hands o f Gargon and Wiznewski. Coach Warner feels there is no cause lor alarm. Said Warner, " W e had some rust spots and the girls need some work in doubles, but I think we'll be f i n e . " Warner also fell the rain was an important factor in the poor showing, "Things might have been different if we played outdoors," said Warner."The fast indoor courts and Ihc len game pro set were rclatvcly new l o us as a t e a m .

In Cuomo's executive budget, released in January, 1984, he proposed a $200 tuition hike, and a $150 dorm rent increase. Student leaders organized groups to lobby the legislature to prevent a SUNY rale hike.

According lo Director bf Institutional Research Patrick tcrcnzini, a "student outcomes" survey has been taken for the past six years lo evaluate Ihc "quality of instruction" given at SUNYA. The surveys also at tempi lo discover how well prepared SUNYA graduates are when "competing for jobs and salaries," he said. "During freshmen conferences freshmen fill out forms about their characteristics, academic plans and goals, family background, high school preparation and expectations of SUNYA," he explained. "We track the students with yearly surveys," Terenzlni continued, "to find out what it is like 10 be a student at SUNYA." Institutional Research will use the most recent surveys "to find out what difference, if any, general education requirements made" for ihc freshmen class, Tcrcnzini said. The surveys taken of SUNYA graduates show that students at this school are wellprepared, according lo Tcrcnzini. "Compared to other schools, wc do quite well," he observed. The "Student Outcomes" survey indicates thai they SUNYA faculty is doing a good job, nolcd Tcrcnzini. The purposes of these surveys vary, according to Terczlni.

U Comity eyes possibility By llene Welnsteln STAFF H'ttllHH Comity, an inlernalionai affairs publiealion, based at SUNYA hopes lo expand lo major college campuses across the state, according 10 editor-in-chief Brian Jacobs, a SUNYA student. "There is a good chance of (Comity) going statewide," he explained, adding that funds, not lack of interest, were Ihc main reason for holding back. "There have been responses from as far away as Louisiana and Wisconsin, but we're selling our sights on the Norllicasl region," he said. Comity, which is in its fourth month of publiealion, has campus representatives at SUNYA, Union College and Rennsalear Polytechnic Institute (RPI). The magazine is also available al Russell Sage, Albany Law School, and Albany Medical College, where articles were solicited for the upcoming April issue. Comity's editors will be applying 10 several foundations for grants, wilh the help of the SUNYA administration, explained Jacobs. The Stanley, Rockefeller and Hearst foundations arc among those that may be contacted. "It's possible we mighl nol even need the grant," he said, adding that advertising revenue mighl provide sufficient funds. More money will mean "pulling more things Into it (Comity)," explained Wayne Pecreboom, a member of Comity's editorial collective. Possible goals include outlining ihc magazine wilh better grade paper wilh higher gloss and priming it in color, he added. member Debra Judge, Comity is looking for people al SUNYA and olher campuses who arc qualified and are interested in working. "There arc a lot of problems Willi slaying only with SUNY (Albany). We have enough good articles for about six months," she explained. out in the black in the last issue. Comity, which produced ils first issue in late December, was founded by Jacobs, I hen president of Amnesty International, as a way of raising peoples' consciousness about inlernalionai. events and situations.

Judge stressed thai Comity came magazine makes people aware of issues ihal affect ihem. Inlernalionai concerns, such as human rights, are covered in each issue. The publiealion, formerly called Worldvicw, was formed under the auspices of the Albany Student Press Corporation, Jacobs said lie decided to operate under the ASP established, according 10 Belz. He stressed Ihal Comity has nol touched the money and used only ihe revenue made through advertising. He added Ihal Ihe magazine is not charged for ASP equipment, facilities, and supplies but will begin to pay for these services nexi semester. n Comity's edilors have also applied to the CASS advertising agency, which solicits advertisers on a nalional level, said Pecreboom. "We're slill gelling established," Pccrcbooin said. The publication, he said, did well financially on I heir lasi issue. "Wc are having no trouble finding advertisers," he stressed, "some companies have advertised wilh us every issue." Pecreboom said lie feels there is a mass appeal for a publication like Comity and there is plenty of potential for a large readership. "Wc have lo reach different people on different campuses," he said, adding that he believes they have a broad enough base 10 go statewide. Dean Bel/, another member of Comity's edilorial eolleelive, said thai by increasing ihc base of circulation, Ihc magazine would attract more advertising.

She speculated that many of the lobbyists simply left before ihe rally, which was supposed to be the public show of student force. "Many students had to caich planes, or were still talking wilh their congressmen" when Ihe rally began, she said.

But Carroll, although looking a bit disgruntled as he later surveyed the sparse crowd, went to the rally anyway.

The first elections were declared invalid by Sludenl Association's (SA) Supreme Couri Sunday night. Lire case, which was brought in from of the court by SA's Programming Director Richard Goltlbbw, involved two conflicts over wording in the group's consliiulion. The constitution states "that the Chairperson may only vote in case of a tic vote," but further on slates "All offices shall be elected by and from the voting members." The conflict Involved the sections that stale: "The outgoing Chairperson shall preside over the election of new officers. If the Chairperson is not leaving, a nculiai parly from the Executive Committee shall preside over the elections," and the Chairperson "shall preside over all elections." Traloras, who was running for Vice-Chair, voted in the first elections before selecting a neutral parly to preside. Michael Lcvine, a Supreme Court Justice, was selected lo be the neutral parly for the second elections.

In addition to Ihe business network, Zcnncr contended, strong family tics preventing inlet mart iages, as well as distinct neighborhoods in jlcnspnhursi, Ocean Parkway, and Deal, New Jersey, have been factors in the preservation of the culture, ' T h e people lived in Ihc saute neighborhood and worshipped at the same synagogues," explained Zcnncr.

Connections must be made by phone, the researchers cannot just drop in on people and thus "people can keep things from y o u , " said Zenner.

The college software problem stems mainly from a lack of commercial, " o f f - l l i e shelf" programs for specific subjects and disciplines, officials say. Aside from mass-markeled wordprocessing programs, I here has been a severe shortage o f good programs for Ihe liberal arts and even the sciences, they explain. " T h e amount o f software is quite l i m i t e d , " acknowledged Joseph Mueller, dean o f educational development at Stevens Institute o f Technology, which broke new ground last fall by requiring all entering freshmen to purchase personal computers as they enrolled.

Mr. Twain spoke to the audience respectfully, as if they were a large group of friends gathered In his office to talk shop. He performed tidbits of many of his most well-known works, he lold stories, anecdotes, and even a ghost story. He traypsed around the stage quite sprltely for a man soon to reach the seventy first anniversary of his exlslence on this planet. "I will be seventy one years old. and If I'm alive I'll be as good as dead." Mr, Twain, puffing away on an ever-present cigar declared. " I don't like lo be called a greal author.

Two of God's freaks had joined the world simultaneously and would most likely exit the identical way. Holbrook truly owned Ihe stage. No music No supporting players.

Many of his jokes hit the mark due to Ihe precise liming ol the punchline. Everything clicked. He then jumped Into a very amusing story about a young man intent on killing himself.

Anyway, he decided lo drown himself. But he was a good swimmer." A life-preserver was tossed into the water and the guy was unfortunately saved.

Below is an imagined Interview with a writer who was Inspired by the conference. At right, Michelle relates the texture of the event. For those of you who missed It, the two outstanding poems reprinted here represent the quality of the work that was read this past weekend. Both were written hy SVN\A students who participated in the conference. When did you realize that you had become a writer? "That is as good a question as it Is a bad one. Perhaps I should begin with the pencil problem. Over the last few months I've realized that trying to write with a pen is nothing more than a futile, anger provoking attempt to cereate poetic progeny. In an effort to rectify the situation just a bit, I resorted to pencils. Pencils are great for writing because you can abuse them in wanton frenzies. They also have a fixed lifespan and are relatively inexpensive. The only problem is that erser mortality is very high these days. I've had to purchase one of those fleshy pink rectangular erasers (the ones that everyone used for the sixth grade math and SRA's) Just to keep up with the lead. I must admit that I have not outgrown drawing silly nothings on them and trying to rub the black spots off with other erasers." about Twain until I was in my twenties. It grew out of a college project. In the process of finding out about him I became Interested." Holbrook's trademark is his portrayal of Twain, but being a well-rounded actor enables him to delve into new projects and wear other masks. Asked what he was doing In Ihe small Schenectady theatre, Holbrook glanced at the massive chandelier and somewhat defensively said, "I'm here just to make a living. I was booked here just like I am booked Into any other town in the country." The booking of a one-man show is nol the generally accepted norm In show business. Said Holbrook, " W h y not? It's nothing new. One man shows have been done for centuries. "Besides," reminisced Holbrook, "I had a choice; drive a cab, or sell hats while trying to become an actor In New York City, or do Ihis show (Twain). I did II lo support my family.

" I didn't know anything proud of That Certain Summer, In which I [ played a homosexual father. It was the first time the subject was treated seriously on television. It created quite a stir, but I'm proud because it was well done." Holbrook is also satisfied with Ihe upcoming mini-series George Washington, In which he plays John Adams. Holbrook Is a star and a well-respected actor, but he is certainly no celebrity. He prefers quality work, but has been forced to take roles In some lesser films. He took an assignment in John Carpenter's hil horror movie The Fog, because "it's a job to make a living. I have to make a living. I can'I just pick and choose." His Innate ability lo transfer acting skills from the stage lo the screen and back again has allowed Holbrook to last a long time In a profession in which many would-be actors become has-beens. Holbrook's durability also manifested a vast knowledge ol both the stage and the screen. Holbrook feels that if a play fails on Broadway, despite positive critical notices, something Is wrong with the production Itself. "Acting," believes Holbrook. "is you. And If it doesn't satisfy you, the audience can't be satisfied. And how can you enjoy it if the people don't?" The challenge Involved with working before a responsive audience enllces Holbrook. Said Holbrook, " I prefer Ihe stage to Ihe screen. "(There are) more rewards for an acotr. You gel more back: Immediate reaction, audible response, right then and there.

What, if anything, makes a writer different from your John Doe, your Jane Smith? "To tell you the truth, nothing. Just as everyone listens to different radio stations, different people are tuned to different frequencies relative to living. Writers in general are more in tune with what most people don't have the time to think about, i.e., the movement of a hand, the path of a tear. Other hobbies and occupations require different sensitivities. All around I'd say we're just a small part of a vast circle of possible visions." Have you any advice to give to aspiring writers?

Holbrook was either overly modest or he simply.failed to realize that the audience applause and intense interest was their way of reluming Ihe favor as besl they could.

Louis Schwartz EDITORIAL LETTERS Enough is enough! O nce again, an important Issue in student government has been decided by a gross display o f what has been nicknamed " p e t t y p o l i t i c s , " Last Wednesday night this campus witnessed a serious violation o f democratic ethics, a true display o f the ugly side o f the political process. The policy which came out o f this fiasco may be an unnecessary misuse o f student money. SA President Rich Schaffcr introduced a bill to Central Council which would equalize the pay o f all members o f the executive branch. What should have been a simple issue o l legality and fairness came a night-long battle o f personalities, accusation and intimidation. As o f now, equal pay is earned by the president, vice president, Controller, Director o f Student Programming and Central Council Chair. The three positions In the bill were Media Director, Minority Affairs Coordinator and OffCampus Coordinator. According to those who supported the bill, slate and federal law require that equal pay be rewarded. I f Ihis is the case, then the decision should have been easily reached. It was obvious from the start, however, that this would be a long and hard battle. A host o f people showed up at the meeting ready to defend the bill and push it through council. What occurred was not a civil discussion or an issue, but a battle 10 see who could outdo who in Ihe ongoing fetid between SA's executive and legislative branches. The first time around. Council voted against the bill. The argument seemed to be that i f these three people had equal responsibility that they would deserve equal pay, but that they didn't so they don't. Obviously, the hostility o f various Council members towards Schaffcr figured in this decision as much as any other consideration.-Legality was as much, an issue as how much they felt the executive branch was gelling away with. It was after Council's rejection o f Ihe bill that the battle really healed up and lost all appearance o f a sensible and democratic procedure. It happens that, at present, ihe ihrcc positions in the bill arc held by women, one o f which is a minority. This chance fact was grubbed at by supporters o f the bill, who expioiied il and exploded the issue into insane and ugly proportions. Libby Post, ex-Media Director, raged at Council, saying she would " d r a g your f g names through the m u d . " Her throats 10 members in private were reportedly no less explicit. Minority Affairs Coordinator Vivian Vazquez stood in front o f Council and said, " I ' m taking a good look at all of you who volcd n o . " This is a lactic rcminisccnl o f what blacks used 10 experience when Irying to vote, before the days o f civil rights. If the law was on ihe side o f the bill, then there should never have been any reason for this kind of despicable strong arm bullying and intimidation. But if Ihe law is on the side o f the bill, then il is very sad lhat il took Ihe threat o f personal lawsuits l o bring Council lo decide in favor o f the bill, which Ihcy finally did. Too bad that the issues o f equal pay and the rights o f the three officials got lost in an embarrassing mess o f personalities, politics, and thoughtless and outrageous behavior. Too bad lhat this'is what our student government had degenerated into. If it is truly a legal requirement that all SA executive branch members receive equal pay, then so be it. But if equal pay is based on Ihe notion of equal responsibility, then this bill was ludicrous from the start. The president and vice president of SA live their jobs around the clock. They represent every undergraduate at this university, and are in some way responsible for everything lhat goes on in SA. No one else can make thai claim. No one else should rccieve that money. The remainder o f Ihe ex ceulivc branch should all be making less than these two leaders. Otherwise it is a waste o f SA money, money that comes out o f our pockets. Regardless of race and sex and personal politics, Ihe law should be interpreted properly and acled upon accordingly This repulsive brand o f personal politics, absurd antagonism and misuse of freedom and power must slop. The cynicism and hostility within student government is poisoning i l , and ruining the effectiveness of student lenders and representatives. Enough is enough! COLUMN Gerry Silver The answer to Ihis question lies in Hart's i .mpaign. Gary Hart has been seemingly constructed and molded specifically to suit the tastes or the American people. I l is almost as if he was created for the sole reason o f winning ihe clcclion. I f ihis is so, than the making o f Gary H a n must have weni something like this: " T o knock Ron out o f office, wc are going lo need a candidate thai will harp on Ron's weaknesses. His conservatism and his age could easily be used against him. Therefore, Ihe perfect candidate must seem y o u n g . " " B u t how young could he be? A f i c r all, he'd have 10 be at least 35 years old lo be president," " H e doesn't actually have lo be young. As long as he looks young, sounds young, and we loll the people that he's young, he is y o u n g . " " A l l righl. So Ihe American public believes thai he's young. So w h n l ? " " S o what? Well, a candidate who's 'young' will immediately get ihe vote of ihe people who arc young, the people who think they're young, the people who want lo be young, and ihe people who realize ihey'rc not young but don't want anyone else lo realize it. Thai's a large chunk of the vole righl ihcrc. Youlh can be ihe basis of his whole campaign. Since he's young, wc can call his ideas fresh and new, whether they arc or n o t . " " W e l l , what would these ideas actually consist o f ? " " A t first he will have no ideas. He will jusl speak of how new and brilliant his ideas would be if he had any. If he. doesn't give any views, then people won't have anything lo hold against him. Hopefully, he can win some primaries just on lhat, gain momentum, and we're on our w a y . " "Shouldn't he discuss some politics?" " A r e you crazy? Talking poliiics is Ihe last thing we need. It's much loo controversial, and il sometimes upsets people." That is what they believe, and that is'what wc believe." "There arc plenty of American's who are in favor of intervention. What would wc tell Ihem?" " W e ' d swear lo them lhal if there ever was a serious threat, in say, El Salvador, why, we'd be there in a second." " W h a t about the Middle East?" " O u r candidate likes o i l , and Americans will always have enough o f i l . And to secure Ihe Jewish vole, we are, o f course, pro-Israel. Here wc arc no different than any other candidate, for all candidates arc pro-Israel before they get into office anyway. That brings us lo military spending." " D o n ' t loll inc.

" " I still don'l know about Ihis. Something inside me tells me lhal it's w r o n g . " " W h a l do you mean? I f wc follow Ihis slralegy, our man will be elected president."

Wouldn't it be best lor (he country if Ihe inosMntclligent and capable man was in office? Thai is Ihe lype o f man who should be president, not someone who is merely a fine actor and greal at telling people whal they want lo hear." " O f course. Bui politics jusl isn'i lhat way.

Wc were informed lhal il was discriminatory not lo pay all positions equitably- wc listened! Eventually, Council members volcd against passage o f the bill granting retroactive stipend increases by a vole o f 10-11-2. Your representatives made a decision and regardless o f which way Ihcy volcd ihe fact remains lhal Ihcy rendered a legislative decision. After Council's first vole on Ihe bill, Libby Post (Pormcr Media Director) reprimanded Council using profanity and throats of a lawsuit as her method o f punishment for our decision. She spoke l o Council not as human beings, but as animals nol deserving o f Ihe righl lo make a decision. There is a vaijl difference belween the use o f effective lobby techniques and the use of verbal abuse and scare tactics. Ms. Post was nol only inapprorialc and blatantly profane in her argument- she was completely oul of control. The Council Chair should never have allowed Council lo be spoken lo so abusively by cither Ms. Post or ihe spectators who had come lo listen. Carlos Viana (NY Slate Affirmative Action Officer) informed us after our vote lhal wc were all personally liable for our actions and would be personally responsible in an upcoming lawsuit: We question the capacity M r . Viana addressed Council in- private citizen or Affirmative Aclion officer. Afler all, he did loll Council lhal he would consult ills office regarding Ihe issue. As your elected representatives we must voice our disgust and disappointment will) both the manner in which Mr. Viana and Libby Posl addressed Ihis Council as well as ihe .seeming indifference of the Chair lo ihe facl lhal profanily is offensive! freedom of speech Is a righl we arc all entitled lo; however, when ihis righl is abused il becomes an embarrassment lo the listener as well as the speaker. Council showed greal respect in nol choosing to simply walk oul in Ihe middle o f such abusive and deceptive speakers. We only wish lhal those speakers had shown any respect at all. —I.aurl Cole Judy Tor*1, Business Manager Lynn Saravls, Associate Business Manager Jane Hlrsch, Rhonda Vioti,Advertising Managers Mlk* Krelmer, Soles Manager Billing Accountant!

To the Editor: The endorsements for SA President and Vice President by the ASP serves no positive function and should therefore be eliminated. I was outraged by the style and presentation o f Ihe facts by the ASP in the A p r i l 6 edition. The endorsement o f SA Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates by the ASP is an unnecessary extension of our sludent paper. Endorsements arc achieved via interviews with each candidate, it appears that all endorsees were premeditated, based nol on qualifications, but on vested interests. The ASP and the office holders must work intimately over the course o f the school term and such future dealings certainly influenced the Board, whose identification has yet to surface. Endorsees were evaluated and promoted to almost God-like status, whereas their opponents were unjustly and excessively slandered, and I make particular reference lo the Vice Presidential evaluations. The endorsement provides no tangible service and merely attempts lo sway its loyal readers. The physical lay-out of Ihe four-page pullout also merits severe criticism. The personal statements of all Ihe candidates appear on page 3 and 4, while the endorsements were on the front and second pages. Lets put things into perspective. The statements should Influence Ihe volcr and not an evaluation by a newspaper with vested interest. When all five non-endorsed candidates are deemed nol viable, one must question the viability and credibility o f its evaluation. To secure impartiality in future elections of the SA President and Vice President, I sirongly recommend that the endorsement by the Albany Students Paper be abolished. —Mark Zucker Ed. note: The idenlities of Ihe endorsement revealed in Ihe editorial on p. 10 of Ihe issue. Making of a "perfect" candidate To Ihe disbelief o f many, Gary Hart has emerged as a legitimate candidate lo receive the Democratic nomination for president. In fact, he's more than just legitimate- he has a real chance lo win il all. How did he do il? Il has been said o f Harl by one of his former co-workers that he "has only two new ideas, his name and his age." By examining Hart's political stands, one finds thai there may be a lot o f truth behind this observation. Thus the question arises once moreHow could a man who began as an unknown to much o f the American public, a man with nothing new to offer, suddenly surface as a possible Democratic nominee for the highest position in the country? No positive function Pholography principally supplied by Unlvorsily Pholo Service, a student group.

Everyone involved in Telethon, including staff; performers, and operators paid to gel into Tclclhon. This policy was decided al a staff meeting prior lo Tclclhon. Wc felt lhal charging everyone an admission would be easier, fairer, and less confusing than discriminating who should pay and who should nol. We greatly appreciate Ihe lime lhat volunteers' donated to work al Tclclhon, and are very sorry for any misconceptions anyone might have inferred. Our staff has worked a full year raising money, receiving nothing |h return except for the satisfaction in helping others, and Ihe smiles on Ihe laces of Ihe kids we work with. If it few slaff members look food or beer without paying, we don'l view ihis as a major cause for coniplaini since those were people who worked al Telethon a full 24 hours; and most of Ihem left broke alter buying door prizes and bidding on auctions, We hope lhal the person who wrote the Idler will talk lo us If Ihcy still feel Ihcir claims arc justifiable. Like any oilier organization on this campus, wc are not above receiving constructive criticism, bill an aitack like this one is nol fair lo us at all. —Cindy Kalz —Amy Zimmerman Co-Chairpersons Telethon '84 Meet the enemy To Ihe Editor! " W o have met the enemy and il is u s . " - PogoA l iheCenlral Council meeting Wednesday nighl I walchcd in disgust as a majority of rcprcsenlalives knowingly and atlamcnlly volcd lo violaic the Civil Rights Acl o f 1964, the Equal Pay Acl of 1«63 and the New York Stale Human Rights l a w . Ily Ihe end of Ihe meeting through inlimidallon, • brow-beating and threats o f personal legal liability Central Council chose to reconsider and set the stipend levels o f the t w o white women and one Puerto Rican women who work in SA at the same level as those o f the five white men who also hold executive positions there. Many council members ignored presentations o f M a r k , Mischlcr t he SA Attorney, Dr. Zwana o f the Affirmative Action Office and Sludent Association President Rich Schaffcr on the inequity o f the stipend levels. They repeatedly attempted to find legal loopholes so lhat they could circumvent the equity laws. After a long debate it became frighteningly obvious lhat a majority o f your representatives were not simply ignorant of these anti-discriminatory laws but actively opposed Ihem. I'm worried. If this is Ihe case al "enlightened" SUNY Albany then il is likely lo be the prevalent view among young people throughout our society. The final lesson is that we can never get lazy. These problems won't go away. I salute those o f you who fought so hard lo make sure lhat Ihe original vole was reversed. I would almost prefer lo have seen them sued. It was good that people stood ready lo brow-beat and intimidate those who would oppose pay equity- it wasn't the first time, it won't be the last. —Jim Tierney SASU President Important information T o Ihe Editor, In the April 3 , l 9 8 4 c d i i i o n o f Ihe Albany Student Press article entitled "Speakers Forum Budget Frozen," wc believe thai SA executives Adam Rarsky and Richie Golubow made accusations against Speakers Forum group leaders Michelle Schwartz and Ricky Feldman because of personality clashes, and ihe petty politics that have been played all year, against many people. Rarsky and Golubow acted on Ihcir own, supposedly without the knowledge o f S.A. President Rich Schaffcr and Vicc-Presidenl Jeff Schneider, and thus preceded lo slander our names without due cause. Rarsky and Golubow did nol gel Ihcir facts complete and never approached any o f us with ihis information. Could Ihis be because I hey distorted stories, warped statements, and listened lo only whal ihcy wanted to hear? We would like lo know. Rarsky and Golubow claimed that Schwartz and Feldman mismanaged Speakers Forum, yet Ihcy failed lo mention oilier circumstances which were involved. The rest of ihis I d ler contains our grievances. In response lo the claim o f "abuse o f funds,"Schwartz and Feldman did nol abuse Speakers Forum funds. This was tin exaggerated accusation. Another area mentioned was "mismanagement and flagrant breaches o f policy by Schwartz and I c l d n i a n " How can this be true since all vouchers, contract, etc. miisl go ihrough Adam Barscky? If a mistake was lo slip by, Rarsky should have caught il in due lime. Since Rarsky has signalory powers, il is wrong for him or Golubow lo stale lhal "Schwartz and Feldman think they're autonomous lo S.A. system." Ry making Ihcse accusations Golubow and Rarsky arc not saying much for Ihe system or ihcir competence o f their executive leadership. Also, how can Harsky and Golubow think lhat 'Schwarlz and Feldman consider S.A. Ihcir own personal expense acc o u n t ? " Now could ihis bo when ihcy are constantly laying qui money from their own pockets for such things as: dinners, materials for publicity, hoiel expenses, travel expenses, and the " b u f i ' o i " for David Brenner?OI'len il lakes many weeks for ihcse monies lo be reimbursed. Further, Rarsky was incorrect in staling lhal Michelle and Ricky spent $265.(X) for ihe Brenner buffet " l h a l he never attended." Nol only did M r . Brenner attend ihe buffet, bui his manager,"regular" group members, and various member of S.F. accompanied him. This is a prime example showing lhal both Rarsky and Golubow often giving Ihe appearance of being ignorant of Speakers Forum events, and don'l know what's actually going on. Richie Golubow, as Director of Programming, has not shown an open interest for the evenls held by Speakers Foruni. As an example, Bobby Scale was brought lo this campus in a co-sponsercd evcnl by ASUBA and Speakers Forum. Il was up lo Golubow-lo straighten oul details. Was Golubow negligent in his duties by never meeting with the two groups? Further, Golubow never appeared al a Speakers f o r u m meeting until March 12, after ihe majority of out shows had been completed; Was Ihis another negligence on his purl? Also, how can Golubow Stale lhal after making out income line, Speakers Forum approached " I h e beginning ol iho e n d . " Wc do not feel this is a justified statement, Afiei reaching the income line, the group provided a diversity ol speakers al reasonable prices for Ihe student body. The sol purpose of our group is nol lo make money and charge high prices, bill try lo "appeal lo several different areas o f student interests. Wc feel that Rarsky and Golubow should apologize lo [he entire group for hasty accusations, and admit thai there was a lack of communication on both sides. They should have clarified things with us instead of making public accusations, Chairperson of —Fanny Tralaros Speakers Forum —Kicky S, Feldman Treasurer of Speakers Foruni —Michelle Schwartz.

These are regular lots, pay lots, and special permit areas. Any registered vehicle can park in any of the large parking lots located near the four quads. However, the front of both the Dutch and Stale quad lots have been designated for faculty and staff only. Dutch and Colonial quads also have monthly pay lots which require an appropriate decal and have a fee of $48 per year. According lo Hcbert, there is a long waiting list for these lots and they are filled on a first come-fist serve basis. There is also an administrative pay lol located near Colonial which costs $50 per year. 17 C M 111 ?nt> Siogm S« 5end Check or Money Older lo Qgjni.tr Stog i n 'iu Braum rwf.Mjn, Bedlim Publications, Inc . 3<B n»f m OuinTiif IISI »n i.ghit ••unn Street.

The Maritime Academy, who finished behind Albany 'B' in ihc B division, was the Colonials' next victim, this lime in Ihe' Netmen roll over Vermont By Dean Chang ASSOCI/I II: SI'OH TS hill TOR The men's tennis leam was expecting to face the University of Vermont on Saturday, a strong Division I school thai the Danes defeated in an upset last fall. But ihe team that Albany played was only a shell of Ihc powerhouse that gave the Danes so much Irouble in the fall. The 7-2 score was an adequate reflection of how the two teams played. Vermont made Ihe tnosl of iis talent, bul il wasn't enough lo lake Albany. "Their team was somewhat decimated," said Head Coaeli Bob Lewis. "They weren't nearly as strong as we had thought they were going to be. I had expected thai both teams would have to play up lo ihcir capacities lo win. As ii turned out, we didn't have to play al ihe lop of our game." The most notable absentee was number one singles player Mike Duffy. He is academically ineligible lo play this season, which helped Ihc Danes to Ihc easy victory. Albany's first singles player Dave Ulrich defeated Duffy in the fall, and Ulrich was looking forward lo the rematch. He knew thai Duffy would have bad his mind on revenge; unfortunately for both players, Ihc •hatch never came off. "I was on Ihc cotirls when ihe leam (Vermont) came in," said Ulrich. "As the players walked in, I started looking for Duffy. Then I found out Ihat be wasn't there. My opponent was still lough, bul he was nothing compared lo Duffy." Ulrich defeated John Davey In straight sets, 6-2, 6-3. "I knew their second singles player was prelty good, so for this guy lo be ahead of him meant that he had lo be prelty good also," said ihe co-captain. Second singles player Tom Sclunilz lost to Peter Payroian in a very tight match, 7-5,7-6.. Third singles player Rob Karen also played a close match, but this lime ihc verdict went to Albany, 7-6, 6-4. Karen was bothered by an injured linger Ihe pasl few weeks, bul Ihe adverse effects seemed lo have worn off. The only thing thai the co-captain needs is more practice. "Rob looked a lit I lo heller," said Lewis. "His game isn'l al ils peak yet. He's not in prime physical condition, so a very compelitive match like he had is good for him." The senior adniitled Ihat he wasn't nialclllough againsl his opponent, Vermont's Rich Green; "After this week, I should be matchlough," said Karen. "My finger's feeling a lol bcller, and I've been doing exercises lo Strengthen il. I'm starting lo get my confidence back, and dial's a big pari of my game. By Ihc lime wc gel back to school, I should be in great shape." fourth singles player David Grossman had an easier time of it, defeating Ncal MacNeill, 6-3, 6-I. "Grossman had lite mosi impressive outing againsl Vermont." said Lewis, "lie jusl overpowered MacNeill. David's a very strong number tour player, and we're going lo give him a chance lo become number Ihrec." In Ihe first sei, Grossman and MacNeill were tied al three games apiece. Grossman broke his opponent's serve and went on to an easy victory. Said Grossman, "Sonic matches are decided by one key point. I made a couple of shots and il was ihc end of lite match." The team's second loss came when fifth singles player Mike Dcriitansky went down lo Peter Newman, 6-2, 7-5. Sixth singles player Jay Liscnbcrg reestablished ihe Danes' dominance with his 6-4, 6-1 victory over Ken Willies. The first doubles leam of Ulrich and Grossman beat the leam of Davcy-Fayroian by the score of 6-4, 7-6. The second doubles lanclein of Sclunilz and Karen were extended lo three seis, bul defeated MacNcillNewnian, 4-6, 7-5, 6-3, "Tommy and I served real well," said Karen. "We were getting our first serves in and pulling away ihe relurns. When they were serving, we always seemed lo have chances lo break [hem, bul we wcren'l getling the shots." The third doubles team of Lisenherg and Dermansky downed Green and Willies, 6-3, 6-4. The upcoming week should bring iwo challenge matches, one involving Karen and Grossman, and one maiching Liscnbcrg and Dermansky. Boib matches should be well played, bul the former is the more interesting. "Il should be a good match, win or lose," said Grossman. "I jusl want to have the chance lo move up." for Karen, fourth singles is someplace where you wouldn't expect Id find a four-lime SUNYAC champion. "My goal is lo gel lo number Iwo," said Karen. Tommy's playing real well Ibougll. Hill Dave and I bolh agree thai be deserves the chance lo challenge me lor ihird singles. Before I ean move up, I'm going lo have lo beat Dave."

Jimmy I.eskodi was Ihc goallcndcr for 'A' and If il wcren'l for him, they would never have reached the final. Againsl Ihe 'B' team in Ihe semifinals, he was extremely sharp. His excellent third period play had lo be the highlight of the tournament. In the championship, il was the relentless allack of the Binghamlon offense which proved to be the deciding factor. John Stincll was the leading scorer for Ihc Colonials and for the lournamcnl. He was Ihe 'Charlie Hustle' of the championship and helped register the three goals Binghamton scored in capturing the title. Tony Puccio had ten points for Binghamlon in ihc tournament. Overall, il was the great shape of Ihcir players, Ihcl consistent play of their goallcndcr, and the sharp allack of their offense which jusl proved a little too much for ihe competition.

" Bellow kicks off Writer's Institute to packed crowd By Rick Swanson SIAIt HHllhtt Distinguished writer and Nobel Prize winner Saul Bellow formally launched the SUNYA Writers Institute at Albany Thursday night with a lecture entitled " T h e Wrilcr and Ihe W o r l d . " "Writers and criminals have much in c o m m o n , " said Bellow, because like tawles criminals, the fantasies o f writers arc also lawless, thai is, without bounds. Speaking before a standing room only crowd in the Campus Center Ballroom, Bellow suggested thai a writer's world is a solitary one, removed from the resl of the world. " I l is a great strain to become like others who lead normal lives," he said referring l o what he considers the unrestrained, or "lawless" imagination of writers. "Writers spend a lot o f lime alone- a writer is a solitary beast," said Bellow. He asserted that although his work has been widely acclaimed throughout the world, he is comfortable by himself. Bellow began his speech by reading a portion o f his soon to be released book titled Him With His Foot In His Mouth. He then answered questions from a panel of professors from SUNYA's English Department. The panel consisted of SUNYA professors William Kennedy and Sarah Cohen, as well as associate director of the Writers Institute Tom Smith. Cohen, who has followed Bellow's writings for the past twenty years, has.wrillen a biography on him. Kennedy, a former student o f Bellow, was the recipient o f the 1984 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for his reeeni work Iron weed. Indicating that America is still a niching pot of different cultures, Bellow told the audience ihat there are "Americans that arc aliens and al the same lime aliens I hat are Americans." "Nationalistic ideas of pure culture arc historically u n t r u e , " said Bellow. He pointed out that there is no such thing as a typical American, rather, this is " a hybrid w o r l d " and everyone's culture makes them slightly different. Responding to a question from Kennedy about the " n o i s e " or distractions o f Ihe modern w o r l d , Bellow said that people should try " t o sec through Ihe noise" in order lo gel a better grip on reality. act \t-:itst:t)ltt>K Student Association presidential candidates Rich Schaffer and Tim Hallock will fight it out in a runoff election this Monday and Tuesday after a lighi race on April 16 and 17 in which neither candidate drew the required majorily of more than 50 percent of ihe voters. Schaffer, the incumbent, garnered 856 voles, or 46 percent, narrowly edging Hallock, who received 800 voles, or 43 percent. Bill McCann gol 139 voles while Willie Jones trailed with 79. In the runoff, ihe candidate who receives a majorily (if ihe voles wins the election.

C'eniral Council elections for students living on'Colonial Quad and off-campus were Invalidated'. Both ejections will be rerun I his Monday and Tuesday. Regarding the Colonial Quad election, Busby explained he accidentally left Felicia Stanley's name off Ihe ballot. In the off-campus election, Busby said he inadverlcnlly included Jackie Swingle's name for Central Council although she was not running for thai office. Busby said that no one has contested any of the oilier races. There have, however, been several complainis about Ihe way elections were run. " L i k e any oilier election in Ihe past," Busby said, " w e had our share of problems, menial errors on my pari, and, as always, on ihe pari of ihe candidates." Some candidates complained thai ihe Indian Quad polling area opened 45 minutes laic on the Tuesday night of elections. Busby said I his occurred because there was only one set o f keys to open the voting booths so he " h a d l o be al all four quads al once." Several Hallock supponers were reported to have violated SA's elections policy by campaigning on the Colonial Quad dinner line on an election night. "What Ihcy (the campaigners) did, Hallock said, "was totally independent of anything I said and I had no knowledge o f whal wenl on until well alter it happened." He declined to comment any " W c give our souls to the outside w o r l d , " said Bellow. But he also warned that unless one is careful, one can be manipulated and " I h e world can do what il wants with our souls." Bellow suggested that reading is a way o f spending time with yourself, and a way to evade the " n o i s e . " People musl all try to fight " t h e increasing dehumanizaiion of our w o r l d " and develop their inncV selves more, he added. Saul Bellow was born in Quebec and later moved l o Chicago.
